the walk around the clock to make sure you never miss a story. this is all in national from the whole team here. moscow a welcome to our program. one of cool stuff going on is still reeling from a devastating double bomb attack in the capital of the now taliban run country to explosions, rocks the international airport. the current epicenter of western evacuation efforts more than $100.00 people were killed, including american military personnel, islamic state correson, which is the regional philip of isis says it was behind the atrocity. just to warn you, there are some graphic images coming up. well, one of the blas happened on entrance to the hold while council waiting in line to be processed to fly out 14 was thrown into a train, located nearby and explosives asked is said to have been used in one of the attacks . the other last shook an area around a hotel. what british officials were processing ask hands to fly to the u. k. team
9:03 am
us service members were among the ted long with 28 telephone members on t's where i got steve in cobble and told us how the cities faring off the tragic offend. the situation so far this morning is somewhat calm of it. it was yesterday, but we kept hearing as many as half a dozen explosion, and this is also the to terrorist form block at the airport. some of them are explained by the trailer, back to the local population as, as control designations carried out by american servicemen destroying the assets, equipment that they don't want to leave behind and that they can't evacuate. nevertheless, things that hasn't been the sort of shooting we had overnighted the sirens that we heard yesterday. but from what we understand, and this is, it has been confirmed to us by, by numerous sources there were such as and raids carried out throughout the city over the course of tonight. and this this morning as well. those searches and rates
9:04 am
are still ongoing. the terror threats at the airport is still high. you may have seen footage from the airport this morning. the crowds never went away. it's very difficult to describe just how many people there are at the airport now. how tightly packed together they are and how impossibilities to, to, to vet them, to sort of pack them all down before they get to the fence before they get to the various check board. thousands of thousands of people packed together screaming, jocelyn, shoving, trying to get into the airport, that hasn't changed. and nato countries as well as the taliban. all warning with the crowds must disperse for their own safety. those who carried out these, these attacks, they saw the cottage that they caused, isis allegedly has claimed responsibility and the, the threat to ease. and the,
9:05 am
the fear here is that they'll try again, which is why we're seeing the search is carried out. now these rates by the taliban sizes allegedly coordinating with us forces. but as i said, the situation remains tense, not quite as bad as it was yesterday, but nevertheless far from calm. the these hero image is apparently taken off to one old explosions. it was sent twice by a witness between the 2 black shots were also reported on site, so it's unclear who fired them and spoke to the man behind the video and just 10 meters away from one of the expectations. this was something that we are living in probably like 420 or more than that. i hadn't witnessed christine, that hurt our eyes. our eyes was alert full of here and all we
9:06 am
couldn't breathe. the oxygen was all like that. there was no oxygen at that time. after that, when that happened, the americans just shot the fire. i mean, they opened the guns at the people's been was only one. and that was near the explosion area. so when they tried to push me and like i really tried to reach my on and in but i couldn't for me and i thought that my aunt and her children drug 10 feed or are maybe god forbid they might be did by now . so when i went there and saw them, i was really thankful for that that they were like, we saw me and many dead bodies. i like maybe more, more than 30 or 40 people were laying there dead. i mean, it was a really bad scene. i mean, when i saw them,
9:07 am
i just didn't just don't look at them, just look at it was. so, i mean, this is very bad for sure. while the latest development hair is that we are getting reports that the number of fatalities house now risen to 170, it seems that the numbers are still rising by that day as they try and uncover really the, the devastation that happened will. of course, be updating that as soon as we get the information. what i also want to show you now is rather unsettling video showing covered 40 is lying in the street ahead of the block. the u. k. u. s. and other western nations had been warning that nationals about the threat of a severe terror attack, advising them to avoid the airport. the witness who we spoke to says the americans have failed africa people. so what we feel abandoned, that's because you all these people, those who are trying to get in there are having some documents that they can go. but the are the people like actually doesn't have anything. all these you have him
9:08 am
do. and medias in the news store. lots of them doesn't have any legal documents that they're trying to get out. there are like more than 20000 if they can. but right now this thing is all messed up on. messed up. i don't know why the americans are not processing then anymore, but lots of people just like us are stacking and hearing. and i know everyone is trying, you know, just to get out of this country of this situation and run from taliban. so yes, we left abandon, we are left behind. we just want, you know, to get out of this country as soon as possible, before you know the situation and get more critical. the isis, a splinter group behind us. these bombings has been active in eastern afghanistan on pakistan, and launch the savage campaign of bloodshed when it was found back in 2015. with
9:09 am
more details on the group, what we know, his equal sunroof, the dreaded name of ice is, had all but vanished from end to national headlines. but now, amid the afghan power vacuum, the terror group has apparently struck again the . the double strike right outside cobble, airport, killed, dozens, american politicians had been warning, an attack was inevitable, but to no avail. every day were on the ground is another day. we know that ice case seeking to target the airport attack both us and allied forces and innocent civilians. as we conduct these operations, we are sustaining the highest level of vigilance for an attack against the airport by isis k or another terrorist group, or commanders on the ground have taken every step they can to prepare for such an attack. isis k is an afghan off shoot of the same the tourists islamic state terror
9:10 am
group. it's based in car a sun, hence the letter k in the abbreviation with over 2000 g. hardy's committed to its terrible cause. the group targets have gone stones most vulnerable with the the if you think this may have been isis case law strike the exiting foreign troops
9:11 am
before a happy union with the taliban? well think again. the 2 groups are sworn enemies with the taliban just not radical enough. in the eyes of isis k, the islamic emery strongly condemns the bombing targeting civilians at cocoa airports. the explosion took place in an area where us forces are responsible for security. the bottom line is isis k presents a massive security and reputational challenge for the taliban. given the talents attempt to look more civil, humane and legitimate, we could conceivably soon see. i mean, strange as it sounds, a taliban lead anti terrorist opperation or isis k might become the perfect pretext for the us to negotiate at least some presence in talib, uncontrolled of galveston. we did hear about this group, for example, and i believe, april 2017. when trump and essentially authorized the pentagon to drop the mother
9:12 am
of all bombs in eastern afghanistan, i believe in the nun go har province on isis k. but the roots of this group and its existence is poorly understood. and of course, when we hear these press briefings at the pentagon, there's very little context. this group actually is a direct byproduct of the us invasion and occupation of afghanistan. it grew out of the pockets donnie tallow bonds, who were disgruntled tolerable 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, u. s. military base where they used a c. i turn coat to attack us soldiers. there are several. busy other attacks on american assets and this all led to a rise of terrorism inside pakistan directly related to the u. s. presence in afghanistan, 6 years ago, the pakistani taliban, which was widely suspected of being used by the african government,
9:13 am
backed by the u. s. against pakistan. turned into isis k central. it's the same thing as isis. so most viewers with no slumming state of iraq and syria, isis, which was this group that took over in 2014, 2015, big swats of iraq and syria. and by the way, who were able to do that because of massive amounts of military equipment that the us left behind, specifically in iraq, that's where they really got their weapons from. they went into iraq, took those home these and weapons and went back into syria. isis k which is the islamic state of correson, which essentially means eastern. they don't like the taliban, they're not friends with the taliban. they've been fighting the taliban. but more importantly, they've been fighting the u. s. and i bring up the point about the weapons because we just did the exact same thing and up dennis and left behind. unbelievable amounts of u. s. military equipment, massive amounts of weaponry and guns black hawk helicopters from these. we left it all there. the same way that we did in iraq, so we could be creating
9:14 am
a very similar problem of what we saw 20142015 with the other isis y. c. k is far from being the only function able to carry out such a tax. on the warning from the afghan national resistance front, which controls the punches volley. an area now seen as the center of the empty town of opposition. its foreign relations had believes the terror threat in the country right now is even stronger than it was 20 years ago. it could be, i says k, but we think there are, there are other elements. 1 plan the attacks might have perpetrated such attacks against us soldiers and was a terrorist attack on the watch of the taliban. a group that says we are able to provide security. and now in one day we see numerous terrorist attacks happening on the watch. unfortunate b international terrorism and sun as much stronger compared to 2001. this is something that the national resistance front of afghan on has been same for the
9:15 am
past year. we believe the international community should help our efforts to combat the national terrorism and afghans in the to the international community, abandoned the dentist. and we saw how again us on became a haven for terrorists groups. the same will happen if the international community abandoned that again, it's into 2021. there's no pose threat towards everyone. no one is an exempt and terrorism is after every state, whether it's part of the western world or the eastern. off he managed to speak with the taliban spokes person. that's double who lunch, a hint on a range of issues, encouraging fighting drug trafficking and the threat posed by potential resistance forces in the north. the country. the hello, i'm sorry, really sorry about what happened. a couple add port for our part. we've taken measures to avoid these unwanted events. of course,
9:16 am
the responsibility lies with the americans. they tell people to gather the field, they say we will take you out. there was hostile and buffalo, the americans opened fire people. many were trampled and crushed. many died by august the 31st. the americans must have played the evacuation of their employees. the mo maitland asked for the pans his head. it's not a big problem. there were only 2 people too who would like to continue the war umbrella. and afterward my suit, we've repeatedly appealed to magnitude to resolve the existing problems through negotiations. and there is no need for a military confrontation. we've not received an answer to our calls, and that's not a problem either. or i'm forced as a station nearby pension here to keep the situation under control more and believe the current situation is entirely dependent on the afghans and no one else. we're not going to become a threat to the states boring us using the g o strategic factor. we have good
9:17 am
relations with tajikistan is becca stan, tom menace tom pakistan. bron china. i can assure our neighbors that they should not fear any threats, harm or damage from our territory, the belly online. what has the drugs we have a far reaching plan to prevent drug production. currently, about 3000000 afghans rejected and drugs. this is this side phenomenon for us. we'll try to nullify the cultivation and production of drugs in 2001 the cultivation and production of opiates would not eradicated work in this direction as well. in some provinces, the sewing and collection of drugs is still ongoing. and here we need cooperation not only with the countries of the region, but also with other interested state. thursday's ted to attack came off to many 20 years old us military presence in afghanistan. it's perfect to go was to prevent terrorist attacks against americans on america,
9:18 am
but with the taliban searching back to power some u. s. military veterans are question whether all the sacrifices were was it widens recent claim that the operation of kind of stone was successful. founding increasingly hollow mission to degrade. the chairs tread about cod in afghanistan and kilo summer been live 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 they would not be used as a base from which to attack our homeland. again. we did that. those who carried out just attack as well as anyone who wishes america harm. no. this we will not forgive. we will not forget. we will hunt you down to make you pay auto biden's faithful increase in criticism i hope with calls even for him to step down over the parched evacuation thursdays
9:19 am
attack for fighting us soldiers killed $18.00 injured according to the latest reports and has of course intensified the criticism modified and dramatically if any america has harmed or killed and not safely evacuated or if any of this military equipment or weapons are used to harbor kill an american. the blood is directly on jo biden's hands. this will destroy what's, what's left of nato because the u. s. has been so unilateral and so clueless that mean for, for the president of states to be rebuked in the house of parliament. that's the 1st time it's ever happened. joe biden has blood on his hands. this horrific national security and humanitarian disaster is solely the result of cho biden's, weak and incompetent leadership. he's on seed to be commander in chief. it is in raging and joe biden is responsible. it's now clear beyond all doubt, but he's neither the capacity nor the will to lead. he must resign and leave on.
9:20 am
the telephone, master and conservative commentator at martin told us the fight and handling of the afghan pull out has led our lives to question americans. leadership in the fight against terrorism. the global community has lots of trust and faith in joe biden and his administration a lot right now in the united states of america. despite the victory, the games and military job. i have managed to completely unravel and unwind that in a matter of months, putting our military in women's lives in danger. you know biting can get up there and say all he wants, the cameras will hunt you down, we'll get you. but he was the credibility not only the rate and the fear of our enemies, but he's a lot of credibility from our allies as well. i don't know how somebody is able to do that, and 9 months have been ministration. but i don't think anybody is surprised that it would be under the biden astray ship, were watching the bible presidency deteriorate before our eyes. this president is
9:21 am
not handling this well and everyone knows in america and the people in the rest of the world know it's so it's actually a very dangerous time. i hope the president is careful and slow and methodical. but right now what we're portraying is weakness. and uncertainty, he says at the end of his speech, and now i'm allowed to ask the person, and course as i was instructed and right now, china is looking at taiwan and bad guys are looking at america and saying, let's take advantage of this really weak, really embarrassing moment in american life, it's a big concern. while france part rushes foreign minister says the blame for the deal between the u. s. on the town about falling apart, likely lies on one side. so the europe, now these are the lesson must be learned after iraq, libya, and now of dennis stones attempts to impose outside values are explosive. and i
9:22 am
hope that this conclusion will now be fixed in the minds of politicians who are considering further actions in foreign states. we maintain to dialogue with the taliban within the so called extended troika, there was a tendency to delay agreements. and as always, if nothing is achieved the negotiating table, there is a great risk resuming hostilities, which is what ultimately happened. but i repeat, once again, we are ready to support the agreements that the americans concluded with the taliban in which unfortunately could not be fulfilled. and probably not because of the position of the taliban in the wake of the bloss multiple european leaders and r readjusting they're about to ation plans. the august touch fost deadline is not just 4 days away off which no western force is all set to remain. and cobble peter oliver has more now and how well he does a fighting against time to get people out natalia in play and there was evacuating people from the the airport. the cobbler came on the fire last night. we've already
9:23 am
heard from mario doggie, the italian prime minister, saying that the upcoming g 20 summit, which will take place here in the italian capital will have gone to start as a big part of its focus elsewhere. what we've seen is the u. n. a refugee agency, specifically their representatives in germany and the folks person in germany. i think they would continue their efforts on the ground after that 31st of august. the deadline here from angular merkel. both the german chancellor saying that the time was really running out to get people out of afghanistan right now side. so we know that the window of opportunity is closing. $10000.00 people could be brought to safety. i want to reaffirm that we will not forgive those who can no longer be rescued by air, least we will continue to try to get them out of the country. the foreign ministry is talking to the taliban about this, and we will also coordinate internationally on how we should proceed while france
9:24 am
had said that they were ending their lift. however, in the last few moments, we understand that paris is looking at extending not 4 hours, perhaps even a few more days. up towards the 31st of august deadline, we had heard from the french president to manually mccall. and he said that there were 20 boxes of french nationals on the guns that france has taken responsibility for and wanted to get out of the country wasting the asked or nearby to cobble airport. the french president acknowledge that the time that getting those people out was going to be difficult and that there was a possibility that some wouldn't be able to be evacuated when we have known these risks. since the thought given the confusion, that rains and bolts and the tensions at the airport, the next few hours will continue to be extremely risky in both couple and the safety reasons. the bus that will not remain enough kind of stand. he will remain on bus or the mini and we will continue to have an ambassador and a team and an embassy for afghan as far as we are not recognizing a regime,
9:25 am
a country. well, the u. k. minister of defense, ben wallace with doing the rounds on british media on friday morning and one interview i heard, he said, he only wished they had 7 more days in order to get people out of the country. they don't have time. in fact, mister wallace went on to suggest that the british presence on the ground enough gun is done, could be wrapped up in a matter of hours. not so much a matter of days. we will process those people that we have brought with us the size and people approximately inside the field. and we will seek away to continue to find a few people in the crime where we can. but overall, the main processing has not closed and we have a matter of eyes. there are still people that are going to be in afghanistan that we couldn't get out. we've also had news coming out of ankara, the turkey having decided on a proposal that had been put to it by the taliban. now this was a proposal to try and help keep cobble airport after keep couple or open after the
9:26 am
31st of august, the deadline, what the taliban was still insisting on is that turkish troops salt have made so would have to get out of the country. but they've asked for technical help from ankara in order to keep the airport. busy open for a little bit longer. president of turkey said he still hadn't decided what his country's answer to that request would be. let's go on this shop. iran. c believes the west intervention afghanistan is what gave rise to isis in the fall space. and the evil is spread by, by these western elements in west and central asia, under the guise of warren tara had said to make defeat in wanting on ices, ease a creation of mr. marker on, you know, i wouldn't need a shipping u. k. the political elite and washington, but the reality they want to give the was and impression that they have the celtic

unacceptable in a free society that we should be demanded to show our papers, to security guards of almost private and intimate details. venues are not willing to do it and where many of the public in a stand against it and the government needs to stand in the back seem possible, it's make no sense logically. but actually there are an attack on a way of life. nobody ever suggested that we should have passports to show where the, the had through vaccination is just on acceptable and has nothing to do with the house. we need to get back to normal without any restrictions. and no, it's no boss is far more risky to our society. now, if we try and have a checkpoint society, a to, to society, a segregated society, we have fall safe as a society. if we free an open house could buy from us from r t dot com, got lots of stories waiting for your check out and have a great day the
