got it from but it was filled out through z o o z the the signing of the us tal about agreement and laid the groundwork for the road ahead toward a lasting peace in afghan the stand and i know we still need that mcdonalds and he the 170 dead, nearly 200 injured the aftermath of a terror attack. that short cobble airport by crowds of both afghans and floridas, were crammed together, waiting for evacuation. the witness was just hadn't meters from the explosion share this video and his thoughts with us more than 30 or 40 people. elaine beer dead.

i mean there was a really bad scene. i mean when i taught them, i just didn't look at them. just look at was had within the past few minutes has been announced to the united states says it's killed and i fear k, tara plaza in a targeted drone as strike and i've got to stand up to president vital had vowed to avenge the american death. ah, i live from moscow, this is our to international is just 2 and 5 in the morning on saturday here in the russian capital. i'm calling bray with all the developments on afghanistan and the world wide ramifications as just tell you more about that news that we got on the y is just a few minutes ago. the united states says it has conducted its 1st as strike against the islamic state affiliate the claim responsibility for thursday's devastating

terror attack in cobble that's according to a navy spokes person. the i got health ministry says 170 people were killed in the suicide bombing, including americans. some $200.00 more, were injured. the regional affiliate devices known as lab mix state hauled a sam quickly claim that was behind the atrocity. just to warn you that there awesome graphic images coming up next, early reports suggested that one of the blast happened at the entrance to the airport. as afghans waited in line to the processed to fly out, the bodies were thrown into a nearby storm drain. an explosive vest is said to have been used in one of the attacks. the other blast supposedly shut an area around a hotel where british officials were processing afghans to fly to the u. k. 13 us service members were among the dead. along with 20 a. tell about members. it's also known that 3 british citizens were killed, including a child, and another warning for you now that there is some more potentially distressing pictures to show you. covered bodies of victims who are laid out in the streets

with grieving families identifying and collecting their last love ones. i'm sorry, so the belinda belinda dixon . i was, i was in the sunday and i was waiting for many people waiting on british people that doesn't work properly and didn't like log some last one like 20 people other than the tool again plus one people like 60 people that people have a know like hand no leg reporting next from called senior correspondent morale

guys, they have told us how the cities ferrying after the tragic events. things have calmed down somewhat here in capital though that is relatively speaking. we are hearing god far endless guns, but single shots coming from all areas of the city as we heard that throughout the night will with the taliban as we learn. so to speak. cleaning house, they launched city wide search door to door inspection house to house searches looking for i says k member's, isis k, that is isis is affiliate here in i'm gonna start with whom the taliban has be that water for many years now and who are believed to be responsible for the attacks at the airport. we will throughout hearing the explosions that we heard yesterday get coming from all areas of the city. but today those searches that the taliban launched, those doors do inspections. they have continued. we had,

we have heard from, i'm official sources from a contact here that as many as a dozen ices fighters will either caught or killed during these searches, the taliban has published the images of at 3 suspects. i suspect that it is captured on the approaches to the airport of capital, believing that they were planning to carry out more attacks at the airport. and this is something that the united states its allies as well as the tide. i believe there is a high chance of more attacks security at the airport, both on behalf of taliban and us troops. they have an active maximum security. they expect more attacks to happen. not that that has scared away the crowd. the thousands and thousands of people would crowd around the airport at the checkpoint . and the of the, the gates, the feds is trying to get it to the airport, queuing, desperately shopping and pushing for days

a days weighted paper. some of them believe that there is a real threat to their life that there will be consequences if they stay behind you perhaps vengeance from the data for their work with foreign forces or foreign. well, good guys, asians, irregardless of taliban assurances that no one, no one will be touched. the united states is also now changed its course events. what it believes happened. it says that there wasn't a 2nd car bombing. there was just the one suicide bombing at the north gate. 170 people almost killed almost 200 wounded. to tell you how tightly pressed together, how tightly packed the crowds were for a single suicide bomber, but presumably a suicide. this to have killed and injured so many isis is reportedly also come out with its own version of that. they say they're suicide baba managed to penetrate old security checkpoints. leading to this final checkpoint just outside the airport

man by both taliban fighters as well as us servicemen. as i say, the threat to ease persisted both the taliban and the united states as allies believe there could be more attacks. they expect more attacks and the taliban says the situation will be result than to look until the crowds dispersed. that is unlikely to happen until the end. the end of the evacuation slated for the 31st of august more i guess they have that. now the video about to show you was apparently filmed right after the attack. it was sent to us by a witness. the man who filmed it with just meters away from the blast side. here's what he told us . this was something that we are living in public life for

20 years or more than that. i hadn't witnessed 1st thing that hurt our eyes. i was full of yours and all we couldn't breathe. the oxygen was all like good. 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 being was only one exam and that was near the explosion area. so when they tried to push me and like i really tried to reach my on and but i couldn't dave for me and i thought that my aunt and her children's drug 10 feet or they are maybe god forbid, they might be dead by now. so when i went there and saw them, i was really thankful for that. they were like, we saw me and many dead bodies. i like maybe more,

more than 30 or 40 people for a laying beer dead. i mean, it was a really bad scene. i mean when i saw them, i just didn't that just don't look at them. just look at was. busy so, i mean, this is very bad for a more unsettling video shows covered bodies lying in the street ahead of the atrocity britain, the us and other western nations, had a morning there nationals about the threats of a severe terror attack, advising them to avoid the airport the u. s. is just renew that advice to it. citizens in the vicinity or the witness we spoke to says afghans been left to fend for themselves. the floors, we feel abandon. that's because you all these people, those who are trying to get in there for they are having some documents that they can go. but the are the people like actually doesn't have anything. all these have been in the media is in the news. so

a lot of them doesn't have any legal documents that they are trying to get out. there are like more than 20000 if we have we can. but right now, this thing is all messed up is all messed up. i don't know why the americans are not processing then anymore. but lots of people just like us are striking and hearing and 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 for the injured many and now in hospital some fighting for their lives. here's how one survivor described his experience of the blast. then i had applied for the visit,

the for us invited us to come near the door. i was near the gate when the explosion occurred. i saw myself falling to the ground, and when i stood up i told the last one side of my abdomen, and then they brought me to hospital is one of the wounded of the oxy splinter group said to be behind thursdays, terrorism has been active in eastern afghanistan and pakistan and launched a savage campaign of bloodshed when it was founded in 2050. with more details on the group, his ego donald, the dreaded name of ice, it had all but vanished from international 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 is

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 notorious islamic state terror 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 ghana stones most vulnerable with the the

if you think this may have been isis case law strike the exiting foreign troops 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 taliban attempts to look more civil, humane and legitimate, we could conceivably soon see. i mean, strangers, it sounds

a taliban lead anti terrorist operation, or isis k might become the perfect pretext for the us to negotiate at least some presence in talib, uncontrolled of garrison. 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. this group actually is a direct byproduct of the us invasion and occupation of afghanistan. it grew out of the pockets, donnie taliban, who were disgruntled tally 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, 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 pockets on 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, backed by the u. s. against pakistan turned into isis k central. it's the same thing as isis. so most viewers with no flemish 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 interact. 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 a very similar problem of what we saw. $2142015.00 with the other isis plus isis k is far from being the only faction able to carry out such attacks as the warning from the africa national resistance from which controls the pantry of valley. that area now seen as the center of the anti taliban opposition. its foreign relations chief, the leaves, the terror threatened, the country right now was even stronger than it was 20 years ago. it could be isis, capers. we think there are, there are other elements 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. unfortunately, international terrorism and san is much stronger compared to 2001. this is something that the national resistance front of afghan on has been saying for the past year. we believe the international community should help our efforts to combat or national terrorism and in the to the international community, abandon the dentist, them. and we saw how afghanistan became a haven for terrorists groups. the same will happen in the international community, abandoned of canada into 2021. there's no pose threat towards everyone. no one is exempt. and terrorism is after every state, whether it's part of the western world or the eastern law. he's also managed to speak with the taliban spokes person on the range of issues, including fighting drug trafficking and the threat to the group posed by potential

resistance forces. the language, sorry, really sorry about what happened. a couple add port for our part. we've taken measures to avoid these unwanted events. of course, the responsibility lies with the americans. they tell people to gather the field, they say we will take you out. there was hustle and bustle. the americans opened fire people. many were trampled in it, crushed many died by august the 31st. the americans must complete the evacuation of their employees. the mo, s. for the pans his hair. it's not a big problem. there were only 2 people to who would like to continue the war. amory la and afterward masoud, we've repeatedly appealed to magnitude to resolve the existing problems through negotiations. and there is no need for 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 over mall. 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 bordering us using the g o strategic factor. we have good relations with tajikistan is becca. stan took men as tom pakistan. bron china. i can assure our neighbors that they should not fear any threats, harm or damage from our territory. the by the law has for drugs, we have a far reaching plan to prevent drug production. currently, about 3000000 afghans predicted to 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 was also the american military's deadliest day and a decade in afghanistan with 13 personnel killed and 18 others injured. but when a journalist asked joe biden if he planned to speak to the bereaved families, he chose to keep silence. the meantime, precious building for the us secretary of state 2 republican representatives have raised impeachment articles, accusing antony blank and failing to properly advise the president and of abandoning american interests. and i've counted done the withdrawal debacle and it's fall out of st. joe biden. and is it ministration come increasingly on the fire? more on that next from r t americas john hardy, president biden has given approval to his military commanders to really go after isis k. i says, course on,

because of what happened yesterday. so the president saying, the military can go after isis. what that will mean? how that will play out remains to be said, isis k or isis course on claimed responsibility. and today there really continues to be some of the back and forth between the taliban and us officials over who is ultimately to blame for the security breach. you heard the taliban spokesman talking about that it was really the, the u. s. security failure, the u. s. was responsible for guarding the entrance to the airport, but the us maintain that it was the taliban failure for even allowing the service to get through and basically infiltrate the crowd. regardless, the evacuation effort continues along with as president binding said, the hunt for those responsible for thursdays attack the deadliest day by the way for us forces in afghanistan in a decade. president biden said the u. s. will hunt down those responsible though this also comes after just a few weeks ago. the president essentially lauding america's success in the region

mission to degrade the terrors, tread about cod in afghanistan and kilo some have been lot was a success. i believed that our presence in that gas dance should be focused on the reason we went in the 1st place to ensure afghan a stand would not be used as a base from which to attack our homeland again. we did that. those who carried out this 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. so certainly some contrasting statements there from the president and pentagon official said today by the way, there are specific, incredible threats remaining in afghanistan, including the possibility of more attacks. now whatever the outcome of the ongoing evacuation efforts, it is certainly an extremely chaotic and messy situation for the united states. and

of course, for the biden administration, president coming under fire from republican leaders and officials calling for his resignation and saying that he ultimately bears the responsibility for what happened with some lawmakers. he's been going so far as saying he has quote, blood on his hands. if any america is 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 i'd 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 heritage, national security and humanitarian disaster is solely the result of jer, biden's weak and incompetent leadership. he's unfit to be commander in chief. it is in raging, and joe biden is responsible. it's now clear beyond all doubt that he's neither the

capacity nor the will to lead. he must resign, or to be clear, president binder remain steadfast. the u. s. should continue to withdraw from afghanistan and effort that started by the way, during the obama administration and continued through the trump administration. and keep in mind it was president trump who negotiated deal with the taliban to basically lay off us troops as us troops were being pulled out of the country. and that evacuation effort, of course, continued, and the overall mission continued still undoubtably. all that said, this will likely be a stain on the bite and presidency. the blame game is in full effect and certainly a lot of accusations back and forth among officials here in the united states and certainly internationally with this effort, ongoing legal analysts, jennifer de master and conservative commentator ed martin, believe biden's handling at the afghan pullout has undermined america's geopolitical position, the global community as lots trust and faith, and joe biden, in his administration,

a large truck now in the united states of america. despite the victory of the games and united states 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, biding can get up there and say, all he wants to cameras will hunt you down, will get you. but he has lots of credibility, not only this rate than the euro, 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 in 9 months, have been in ministration, but i don't think anybody is surprised that it would be under the biting ration. we're watching the bible presidency deteriorate before our eyes. this president is not handling this well and everyone knows in america and the people in the rest of the world know it. so it's actually a very dangerous time. i hope the present 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 to taiwan and, 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. and other developments the british foreign office is struggling to explain how sensitive documents identifying african workers for the british embassy and cobble were left behind. a british journalist found the documents lying on the ground in the capital diplomatic district. some of the people on it had already left half canister. and i'm a journalist. it also needs to track down 3 families who the british army, then rescued. but it's still unclear what's happened to, to the visuals name does embassy job applicants we have worked tirelessly to secure the safety of those workforce and glued and getting 3 families to, to the drop down. vall embassy was done at the base of the situation and capital deteriorated

. every effort was made to destroy sensitive material. the british defense ministry is also assisting the evacuation of pets from cobble. some $200.00 cats and dogs will soon be rescued, while the fate of those afghans whose names were left behind the embassy remains unclear. international affairs commentator, marco gothic told us that those people named in the documents could face reprisals from the taliban. clearly significant in terms of the attitude of those who failed to destroy those documents. it's also significant for those whose names are on the document because obviously they are in some danger from those who see them as traces or allies of the enemy. so i would say yes, definitely worry for those people on those lists. well, it could be a collective cowardice of people who simply ran looking after their own interest. but it said it could be a collective payday out there some times. the main consequences obviously will be for those people on those lists who haven't yet got out that's they're the ones who

face the consequences, not the ones who didn't care enough to hide their names. i think that they're more endangered from the families of those who lost relative to the u. k. and us forces, i mean those are the people who will want revenge in the culture of the area. so those are the straight, depends on where these documents have ended. up as far as the taliban are concerned, we should bear in mind that they don't really have an interest in actually killing us and u. k. personnel because they are fully aware of the consequences. if they do that, just before we go, a quick re cap of the developing story that emerge just before we came on, the us military has conducted a drone strike against the isis affiliated afghanistan. that claimed responsibility for thursday's terror attack a cobble airport. according to the us military statements from central command, the strike targeted what they called, and islamic state planner. no further details on last, but they did say that they got that target maybe spokesperson captain william urban

said, an individual was killed in the countries, the manga hall province, and that there were no known civilian casualties. this asteroid having less than 48 hours after president biden's bible to make the perpetrators pay. that's all we know right now we're across it. we hope to give you more details and bring you some more reactions of what it is and increasingly violent. find few days of the afghan evacuation an update from us and just over half an hour from now from the international in moscow. mm. i i

i use me the best either financials to live with no money. there's a girl. i wanted to be the central bank support on the problem. i know they stopped me the news

ah hello. well.
