the various jobs with the artificial intelligence real summoning the demon a robot must protect his own existence with the headlining right now, and i'll say a doubled terror attack. cobble apple killed, 90 and inches, at least a $150.00 during evacuation. at 13 us military personnel or among the dead correspond that says there were several more bluffs which the taliban claims for american forces destroying the roman munition islamic state affiliates in afghanistan, known as i said, k says it carried out the bombings that as the taliban condemned the attack the taliban had warned that an attack on cobble airport was possible and might be aimed

at harming the groups image quality. the problem is that a huge number of people have gathered near the airport and there is a threat that the single person, one person alone can carry out in a thank q people in order to damage the taliban reputation. germany says it's sending evacuations from afghanistan because it's too dangerous, but others, including britain from sending us a pledge to carry on as president vice. and if i was to avenge the american lives last, we will not forgive. we will not forget. we will hunt you down to make you pay. ah hello. welcome to the international law, calling bryce just 13 in the morning on friday. here in moscow for 30 am in

afghanistan, which is dominating our bulletin. this our a country reeling off the terrorism, managed to blight and already chaotic week of evacuation to face blasts of rock cobble airport. well that chaotic evacuation efforts underway ahead of the u. s. pull out. the african health ministry now says that at least 90 people were killed a more than a 150 injured. it's also been the deadliest day for american forces. 13 military soldiers are among the dead with 18 and the deadliest a more than a decade for them all corresponded in cobble is reported to several other blasts in the apple vicinity, which the taliban claims were down to us forces destroying their own property to stopping falling into foreign hands of the tax cut, just hours after western governments had warmed up a security threat. and now the terrorist group known as isis k, an african affiliate of islamic state, has claimed responsibility. the group spinning conflicts with the taliban since its inception. in 2015 and its beliefs have been behind

a number of high profile attacks and i've kind of stand in recent years. early in the week before the explosions of taliban spokes, person had warned of a possible attack on cobble apple. it must be the problem is that a huge number of people have gathered near the airport and there is a threat that the single person, one person alone can carry out an attack and killed people in order to damage the taliban reputation. this is not a significant, not a big threat. we're monitoring the situation at the airport. well, senior correspondent, i guess dave is in the capital and he says he was with a group of journalists when they heard a 3rd explosion. the taliban spokesperson has come out and said the people have been hearing explosions. please don't be disturbed. that is us troops carrying out several controlled explosions, designating the storing their assets. things that they can't evacuate, but they can't risk falling into the hands of the taliban. that doesn't explain all

the explosions that we've heard. they've come from different directions other than the direction of the airport, which is several kilometers away from us. we've also heard the ceaseless shooting. the rab has let up around the city recently. what hasn't led up is the aerial activity. nato. jets passing, zooming overhead, endlessly since the 2 bombings at the airport. but about the bombings, the taliban has come out and claimed responsibility for both the suicide bombing at the north gate of the airport of capital airport. where the majority of us debts reportedly happened. there was also an explosion at the hotel, the baron hotel, which was recently until recently used by us and british forces and diplomats to vet and to approve people for evacuation. it hasn't been in recent days,

but that is where a suicide. sorry, a car bobbing took place it. he's vague. who's just just across the road. from another checkpoint that was mine, but predominantly taliban sizes. and between the taliban and sizes and the hotel where a whole lot of people which, which are everywhere around the hotel, around the, the field around the perimeter of the fuel that is kilometers and kilometers of fed to checkpoints that it's surrounded by civilians. people who are desperate people who are waving pieces of paper trying to get in screaming, pushing, shoveling with no space to move. you know, that have been reports of people being trampled without the bombings patrick's, i'm tied to to worry them. and the problem is that the threat of more bombings is persistent because the crowds haven't dispersed they, they move during the explosions. but they still, they're trying to,

trying to get into the airport, trying to find their way into those final cargo blades. even planes before the evacuation finishes and the taliban has come out and said that, you know, this area can't be made secure until those crowds disbursed until the americans leave. and we assume control. and that is something, but the united states is also worried about the urging people to, to leave, to go away, despised at the beginning of the evacuation, urging them to, to come to the airport test to stick around to get on those back planes, promising them to be transferred to europe or to america, to safety away from the taliban. because many of the people that there is a real threat to them if they remain in galveston, they believe others of that opportunity. more people who want to use the opportunity to get out of the country united states has promised that they will

find those responsible and that they will take action since the isis isis k. and i just off, shoot, gotta start, has claimed responsibility for these attacks. the taliban says that it can only conductive investigation. find those responsible once the americans leave, but things remain very tense. here, there is anticipation there is worry that this attack may happen again. that is something that is said by both taliban and the united states and its allies. some testimony then i witness sally hasanti was in cobble airport when the 1st explosions occurred. to dave into the airport of cover i was, is standing on the is get i will need to get you and they used to sort of like 5 minutes away. i just there was like 45 minutes. they had and they had

to run. there was looking look danish people, the new duration parliament, a difference of them, the type of the type of group they're willing to do. we're looking, we're suspicious. they didn't have guns. what they was looking for the airport. they was looking to be used troops. they will, i will 100 the mentors when they get back to them to my line i, when they get back to the line, i was with the people like after 12 or 2 minutes. an explosion happened on the weekend. it was near. it was near today's 1st been away and it happened the 1st of the year, the gone for the victim, the $78.00. the gun gunfire was in the camp when they get to the line, they use it to say it. i think the guys that there was behind the use looking them guns. i mean your camera after the use through they call the people that stay away . stay away with the people that didn't move. that doesn't mean they are joking because they did distinct money pants. they was always getting serious and then the

us to start the tubing gas gas and smoke when the people the day, you know, they have to like fix the gas in people. the people who really need to get the danger they saw there was like 5 to 6 woman danger. difference was born and it was sitting there was lying on the grounds. ok. some clarity on the group. the claims it was behind the attacks. it's called isis k. it's a splinter to how this group based in the eastern africa province of hot a. some un says it's got up to 2000 fighters, isis k carried out about $100.00 attacks on civilians. and i've got to stand on pakistan between 20172018. it's also targeted the taliban in the past. investigative journalist max blumenthal, says, isis k is a direct byproduct of the us invasion and could be a useful enemy for some. we did hear about this group, for example, and i believe, april 2017 when trump and essentially authorized the pentagon to drop the mother of

all bombs in eastern afghanistan. i believe in the non ga har province on ices k. but the roots of this group in its existence is poorly understood. and of course, when we hear these press briefings at the pentagon, there's very little context as group actually is a direct byproduct of the us invasion and occupation of afghanistan. it grew out of the pockets donnie taliban who were a disgruntled tale bon members who wanted to carry out attacks on us targets inside pakistan and afghanistan. one of their most spectacular attacks was on camped camp chapman, a u. s. military base where they used a c, i turn coat to attack us soldiers. there are several other attacks on american assets. and this all led to a rise of terrorism inside pakistan directly related to the u. s. presence and afghan. a stand 6 years ago. the pakistani taliban,

which was widely suspected of being used by the african government, backed by the u. s, against pakistan, turned into isis k. and today it is led by very interesting individuals show, show how much more hard year shabamo hygiene who is actually not african. he is an arab, and he signals the return of the kind of foreign jihad to afghanistan and a direct link to the anti soviet jihad of the 1980s. and now we see afghan. it's then becoming increasingly a base for foreign jihadists directly. as a result of the u. s. d stabilization of the country i call start august 31st deadline with joe biden's call, and now he's presiding over what was the deadliest day for american military personnel in over a decade. 13 stuff lost in the 2 blasts at cobble airports earlier. he gave an

address to the united states and honest reporters, questions a time becoming emotional the last the most since a single incident in 2011. now, joe biden compared the feelings of families who lost relatives to those of his and his wife's when they lost their son. we have some sense, like many of you do, what the families of these brave hairs are feeling today. you get this feeling like you're being sucked into a black hole in the middle ear chest while he was emotional here, he also was pretty tired, understandably so. he's been in the situation room pretty much all day with us. you know, military commanders and security officials. he said, really the, the main message here tempest i call and he said the evacuation will continue and that the united states will get out any and all american citizens and african nationals with permanent us residency. what's known as a green card, who want to leave. he said some people may not want to leave, but those who want to leave the u. s. will make every effort to get them out. he said it is an airline airlift mission,

unlike any other in history and was expected to be dangerous and stressful that was planned for also attacks. there had been warnings about attacks. he called those u. s. service members. now, i believe the numbers gone up to 13 who are killed, quote unquote, heroes saying they are the backbone of america who are engaged in a dangerous, selfless mission to save the lives of others. and that the mission will and must continue. now, more than ever, and he had this message for those responsible to those who carry out just attack as well as anyone wishes america harm. no, this we will not forgive. we will not forget we will hunt you down to make you pay the earlier today. general kenneth mackenzie, the head of central command are st. com, said isis carried out the attack. specifically, i k or isis correson and will likely continue to try and launch more attacks,

adding that others have already been forwarded by security forces and cobble. the general went on to say that today's attack involved to suicide bombers detonating explosives outside the abbe date of the airport in nearby hotel. the baron hotel, followed by isis gunman, opening fire on civilians, men, women, and children, along with us troops and military personnel through warnings about today's attack. and it's certainly raises more serious questions about america's evacuation efforts . why it has become so incredibly catastrophic and also pass comments from president biden himself about america's effort in afghanistan and the war ontario was in this mission to degrade the chairs, tread about kind enough, gaston and kilo some been lied and was a success. i believed that our presence in that gas dance should be focused on the reason we went, the 1st place to ensure afghans that would not be used as a base from which to attack our homeland again. we did that. we accomplish that

objective today, president binding seem to really backtrack even raising questions about whether the u. s. again, should have been in afghanistan in the 1st place to begin with, and certainly as long as the u. s. was there nearly 20 years as far as the ongoing effort? general mackenzie said isis remains a quote, extremely real threat and we'll try to carry out further attacks. something present, abide and also greenwood today saying this was a mission designed for stress. and that was expected to come under attack and certainly that happened, as we know, he said at this point it does not appear. the taliban played a part in the attacks and that it's within the taliban interest for america to leave the country as well. he added that again while america will pressed ahead, with withdrawing and evacuating any and all us citizens and ask in nationals by august 31st. the august 31st deadline. he could not guarantee total security wasn't here. it sounds ridiculous, but the vast majority of people and communities like that want to come to america, given a choice. and there has been in jail sharing. and this was confirmed by general

mckenzie between us armed forces and also the taliban. so that said clearly, today's events, though, emphasized the nastiness of americans nearly 20 or involvement in afghanistan. now coming to heretic, violent and crashing and more, and they still to come in. what are the final few now? deadly days of the african evacuation? germany is wrapping up its efforts while britain and france pledge to carry on. we're going to hear reaction from europe and the u. k. off the break. i driven by a dreamer shaped by those in

me dares thing. we dare to ask me. ah ah me ah,

now again continuing to bring you developments of the gun terrorism area and for days that have been warnings of an imminent terror attack outside cobble airport, multiple european leaders and now readjusting their plans in the wake of the blast . all that pull out deadline is just 5 days away after which no western forces are to remain in cobble, rory sushi earlier. heard about the reaction in europe in britain from all correspondence east. allie and peter oliver. well, not just in year, from the u. n. as well, i'm 20. 0 good. seattle has just recently has said that he will be convening a meeting of the un security council on monday, specifically to talk about the ongoing situation in afghanistan here in year. if we've heard from sha michelle, the counsel president who condemned the attack and said that he hoped this wasn't going to see a resurgence in terrorism emanating from of gun a stun, nato secretary general, you insult him, but also adding his voice to the condemnation of this attack,

he said evacuations would continue, that, that remained the priority, getting people out through cobble apple, where they possibly could when it comes to germany, they had to now through and kind of cut them out of the german defense minister that the german evacuation mission had been completed, that's the evacuation of all german soldiers diplomats and the remaining german police officers that were on the ground in afghanistan. they have since sent one transport plane back to cobble apple. this is a special called go transport plane for, for taking people who require immediate medical assistance, taking people from the ground, their who are being caught up in this horrific terrorist attack and flying them off to what we understand to german bases in beckett's don, where they can receive medical treatment there. we've also heard from high co must the german foreign minister who confirmed that there were no german personnel,

no german citizens involved in the, the terrorist attack, you know, no, no germans were among. busy be killed or wounded on the grounds, and when it comes to the evacuation process, they said it had being completed. angular medical, the german chancellor, describing this attack as despicable said be the window of being able to get people out of the country. well closed pretty much and i'm going to come cut about the defense minister blaming that window closer on the taliban. taken into consideration, this evening's events. we see that the risk, hello. so this is a high pressure situation in which to the q h. people from the country and operates an al lift. we know that the time window is narrowing the anomaly the, the attack that we saw today, and of which had been warned in recent days. and also this morning has made it clear that the prohibition of the operations in kabul is not possible. the security situation on the grounds and the telephone's refusal to allow an extension pass the

31st of august, have made this impossible thought. well, here in rome, the defense ministry confirm no italians had been caught up amongst they killed other wounded from the terrorist attack on friday. what we have seen though is a number of those countries announcing the end of that q ation programs. norway said it was impossible for them to take anymore people out they've been joined by belgium, poland. busy and canada all saying there was no more left would be involving their personnel from the grounds from we heard from a manual cross, the french president speaking in dublin, meeting there with the irish leadership. what he said was that there was 20 boxes of french nationals on the guns that france was one thing to evacuate from the country. 20 pulses waiting near or right cobble airport that they intended to try and get them out. but it didn't look good for them doing that so far. you said that the embassy was being evacuated in the,

the french ambassador to afghanistan would continue his work from rome to london. isa over to you, any reaction from downing street because it wasn't so long ago that london was saying he would like to actually see the deadline extended? absolutely. we've been seeing, in fact, over the last few days, the warnings coming from u. k. officials that there would potentially be some type of attack, specifically targeting the evacuation as warning go their own systems, of course, about the potential threats of this attack. and it's now played out as johnson, the prime minister. however, saying that the need will be abandoning, they will they see that responsibility to continue to get people out of the country and say those efforts will still continue. we're going to continue without operation and we're now coming to towards the end of it to the very end of it in

any event. what this attack shows is the importance of continuing that work in a fast and efficient manner as possible in the hours that remain to us. and that's what we're going to do. the case manager of the fans have been saying today that they are working closely with their sources and their own assets that are in trouble to try to establish exactly what happened as we've been hearing this evening. it appears that the attack is being attributed to the so called state in for some group who up of course in the past, attacked the town of johnson interesting lease himself. he wouldn't be drawn on exactly who is responsible, but took the time to explain and to point out as well that how about members as well have been killed in this attack? likely, far as johnson that realizing that of course, we have been assisting those evacuation attempts, but also not wanting to call playing on them because of course those lines of

communication, those lines of negotiation are going to be key in the common day. not just again for that continuing evacuation effort, but of course going forward about the type of government we might see in a crowd is done what role the canada case. what influence the u. k. would like to keep going forward. so barbara johnson, as it was still continuing to decidedly have that evacuation attempt continue. but also of course not costing any blame as an issue to say that's still establishing before facts. this is what it was like outside a hospital in cobble a little earlier where some of the victims of the blasts have been taken on look as have gathered and our medicines can be seen cordoning off the area are these roughly video agency filmed crowds outside cobble airport just a few hours before the deadly bluff hopkins, hoping to leave the country been gathering in large numbers since the taliban rito power. earlier this month,

the us and its allies control pass of that transport hub civilians, including children, ive been keeping around the security perimeter, hoping to get on board the evacuation claims help comprehend what happened down the potential ramifications for the military and political experts in the region have been telling us in the past few hours on one could imagine that there would be various groups operating on the ground and the i s on the i s k that is set to be responsible. we had to have a responsibility claim they could be people coming back from the middle east, or at least part of whom i would be coming back from the middle east after and you know, participating in the me, him over there and iraq and siri and so on and they would be claiming legitimacy and for them this is an opportunity and the russia now would be those people who are gathered even civilians who are gathered in front of the airport gates are nothing but collaborators and look at the taliban. and they are allowing them to go,

so they shouldn't be allowing them to go. and basically they, this whole operation would be about telling right wing work stream is the elements in the entire of grandstand and the taliban. are not the people who are supposed to protect us and to protect that really. and we are so it's basically a recruitment exercise there stealing some of the legitimacy from the town. and if they could kill or injure some of the western soldiers, especially american soldiers, then that would be even better. you know, the more the merrier. there is another element as well, which is a bit more strategic or, and which is that this sort of action would put stream on the evacuation process. it would force more screening. it would put strain on the supply chain of people entering the airport. and so this could force the united states or push it

into a position where it might want to extend that 31st of august deadline, which would put strain you know, between the united states and the town about the relation between the united states and the tolliver so basically all of it is about upsetting the apple cart. and if we think of, you know, terrorists or extremist people then pretty much the same. but if we think about tribal affiliations, then people are different. so this is where are they? those, you know, i asked kate, assuming that they are the ones responsible might be coming from one of the, the criticisms that will, undoubtedly, you will be put forward in any future in investigation or, you know, committee look at this operation will be the inevitability of

this kind of attack that, you know, the united states created the conditions for this very incident in the manner in which this operation unfolded. so, yeah, and we need to realize that just because, you know, the one bomb went off. there's real potential for additional attacks isis course on is a very sophisticated terrorist organization. and there are still many, many targets out there. you know, we, we went the way we went into couple in the chaos that was generated. you know, lends itself to this, this kind of attack and, and these targets are still there and the citizens are still crammed in americans and british are still stuck in places outside of the airport, awaiting ex filtration. so this is a, this is a tragedy. i do think we're going to see increased cooperation between the coalition that is on rapidly ex filtrate identified pockets of foreigners.

up until now the telephone has been provide is, has been creating more obstacles than, than, than, than facilitation. i think the child on once the americans out now and they will do everything in their power. now that just attack is taken place to help the coalition get it's identified. citizens out of cobol. i think that will be one thing that comes out of this. no, because the child understands it, the longer these, these pockets of americans and british and foreigners existing couple of the greater attack from isis. and it makes the tower by look bad. they're supposed to be engendering competence among the people. and indeed the coalition that they are in control, the security situation and football in a check like this. only underscores that nobody's in control or security situation . and you can keep across all developments, all their san
