[000:00:00;00] the the the ah, the rocket strike in a residential area of cobble killed at least 6 people with many more injured pentagon officials are seeing us drone and hit a bomb leading truck carrying suicide bombers to the airport. meanwhile, the taliban deployed extra security. i travel airport following horrific scenes earlier this week when a suicide blast claimed at least 170 lives, including 30

u. f. marine. hundreds of people were also left injured. following 40 years of war and trillions of dollars spent army veterans voice their anger and how the situation in the country has unraveled so far. just even invading up dennis sam was a radius taylor. historically no one has ever able to conquer up down as people are upset, but the people i talked to are it's completely foggy. ah . right, kathy live from our studio here in moscow. this is art international on sean thomas . certainly good. have you with us as we recap, a week's top story. now, an explosion has killed up to 6 people in the african capital problem, including 4 children, according to local reports. us military, i have confirmed that it carried out a drug strike resulting in secondary explosions. although they have not so far acknowledged any civilian casualties. according to pentagon officials of the target

was laden vehicle carrying several suicide bombers, who were planning to attack couple airport. this comes 3 days after a devastating explosion at the airport. and just 2 days before the us pull out deadline with all the latest, here's our teams. but i got jeff, who is in the gun capital it has now been confirmed that this was indeed a nash strike. it happened just in the valley just beyond the valley between the 2 hills behind me, that is where the airport of gobble is, the dro strike itself. the strike targeted a residential neighborhood. there. they identified a threats, a vehicle board, i g improvised explosive device of suicide vehicle, but potentially could have been driven towards the airport and designated that it has been very ted here in capital. seen that tara attack at the airport 2 days ago where the suicide bomber detonated as best at the north gate of capital airport,

causing pandemonium. 13 american troops perish the dozens of taliban sizes. and more than a 100 women, children civilians all desperate to get inside. before the evacuation wraps up on the 31st of august, that is the deadline for american troops the allies to get out of of got to start unless they want to risk confrontation with the tyler by the taliban. has made that very clear. as the evacuation backs wraps up, the situation here is ted ted because of the security threat that isis k, which claimed responsibility for the last bombing may try to attack the airport again. that is the biggest fear we spoke with have can journalist below us are worry, he thinks the ongoing security meltdown in afghanistan represents a major challenge. well, it is the 1st time that the americans are carrying out

a drawn strike inside the city of car will not very far from where the forces are stationed in it alone tells you what is the end result after 20 years of investment in blood pressure. this is what failure exactly looks like. well, it makes it carried out some of the more deadliest and attacks in the city of cobbler. but this time it is happening under the rule of the taliban. we have to remember the air strikes today and cobble in the previous one in the city of july, inside the city are taking place when the taliban are in power. so one has to really wonder if it is a new chapter of cooperation between the american taliban on this fight. the road ahead for quite tragically is one of economic hardships is one of uncertainty and fear prevailing. thursday, suicide bombing a couple airport left 170 dead and hundreds injured with many meeting

a hospital treatment. a number remain in critical condition. we spoke to one survivor, we described his experience i had applied for the visit, the for this 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. i says, katy islamic state, a splinter group behind thursday's bombings is active in eastern afghanistan and pakistan and launched a savage campaign of bloodshed when it was founded in 2015 the

the 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 camp 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 pocket 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. essentially it's the same thing as isis. so most viewers with no flemish state of iraq and syria, right. isis, which was this group that took over in 2014, 2015, big swats of iraq. and. and by the way, who were able to do that because of massive amounts of military equipment that the us left behind the civically interact, that's where they really got their weapons from. they went into iraq, took those home these weapons and went back into syria, isis k, which is the islamic state of correspond, 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 us and i bring up the point about the weapons because we just did the exact same thing and dennis and left behind, unbelievable amounts of us 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. what we saw 20142015 with the other isis yearly prophetic. this is how i see and in reporter describes her interview with a senior i. c k commander film, just 2 weeks before the deadly attack and problem in it. the fighter says that the group is laying low and waiting for the time to strike. the interview itself was air shortly after the tax, which was raised to questions about the timing of the broadcast vast cnn to comment run, becker national coordinator of the anti war coalition answer was concerned that i c . k was given the air time in the 1st place. cnn is only about one thing,

which is really making profits. they, the cnn said on the interview, waited for something sensational to happen, which i k was essentially predicting that as the american forces wound down, ices k would spring into action, which obviously it did at the airport. i thought it was nauseating, actually, i think cnn is just giving heights as k, a platform, so that, that cnn gets higher ratings and gets more viewers. in other words, there's an element of a moral, unethical, ridiculous profit driven coverage by cnn. but if you look at cnn coverage of iraq or afghanistan, or the trumpet ministration or the u. s. government, now it has that same sort of profit driven orientation. and again, we learn nothing from that interview, but i says, k, u c n n. and cnn was glad to be used by isis k. as

a platform for their propaganda. the 13 troops killed and thursday's bombing. we're the 1st death of us personnel, enough denison, in 18 months. and one of the largest daily death tolls in a decade. 10 of the service men were from the camp pendleton, military base in california. dozens of people have been laying flowers at the entrance to that side. the dead comprised of 9 marines and a sailor. most of them in their early 20 depend depends. pendleton base is the home of the 1st marine division, the largest and oldest in the corps. those paying their respects, including relatives of the dead, expressed their sorrow and frustration of the contract turn of events. let him down again. as you feel this through goods through bid mission at this point and tell him to send them in like that, you never want to,

you never want to see something like that happen. and so that's, that's as far back and there's not enough words to express, you know, how i feel right now. but i just, you know, i feel that somebody has led on there and then it's just what, so i need it so unnecessary. you know, what's seen army veterans voicing their anger at how the current situation has played out. we heard from 2 ex servicemen. the real failure of this war and up can expand or whatever you want to call that a conflict was explicitly pointed out in the dentist and papers where a lot of generals basically spoke about the fact that there was no mention. they had no mission, they didn't know what they were doing there, and they didn't know what they were going to do in the future anyway. so yes, of course i think, i think not pulling out of just even invading up. dennis sam was a radio taylor, historically no one has been ever able to conquer up down. people are all set. busy with people i talked to

r a re it's completely budged. there is no. ready political will, and there is still americans trapped in afghanistan and still haven't been able to get to and as far as lessons learned from, i mean other previous words. i mean, if we haven't learned from vietnam, if we didn't learn from, you know, from iraq and early to thousands. i mean, we're just gonna continue to make the same big mistakes because we're not the ones that are pocketing the mit. and we're just being used for the v m. i see, and that's and that's what i say about that switching gears now, 2 men in their thirty's have died in japan days after getting their 2nd doses of the madana cove. it vaccine the japanese health ministry has launched an investigation, madana and tequita pharmaceutical. the japanese distributor of the vaccine said that there is no indication so far that the deaths were caused by the job. we do

not have any evidence to these deaths caused by them. the turner could be 19 vaccine and it is important to conduct a formal investigation to determine whether there is any connection. on sunday, we open our region suspended the use of the medina vaccine. after some of the batches were found to be contaminated, the 2 men that died receive shops from a tainted batch. now it comes after japan halted the use of over 101600000, tainted doses of the magenta vaccine that had been delivered to more than 800 centers around the country. the government said that the measure was just a precaution and has launched a probe, senior clinical lecturer about trucks. and connie told us an investigation must be carried out to see if there's a link between the contaminated vaccines and the death. so i think the japanese people are referring to a batch that may not be 100 percent clear, but that doesn't mean it was

a unsafe batch. and what i mean by clear is there are some reports that in the wiles and the in the, in the empty bottle. after giving the injections, they noticed something that shouldn't be that some contaminant and it looks like a manufacturing contaminant. but i must emphasize that it doesn't, therefore translate that the vaccines cause the death of those to japanese people. although it is of course, very unfortunate to hear that soon after getting there seems to people have died. we need to investigate this and find out if there is a relationship. i don't think there is a relationship. what we should investigate with the millions of doses off the vaccines now given. we know that it successfully protects you against ending up on the ventilator and dying. so if i were a choosing man, i would choose vaccine at anytime. every time hurricane

ida has slammed into the u. s. gulf coast. and is it now causing havoc in the state of louisiana? the storm is one of the most powerful on record and has forced thousands of people to evacuate their homes and has already left more than half a 1000000 people without electricity and shut down. 95 percent of oil production in gulf of mexico. the sheer strength of idle wins even forced the mississippi river to flow backwards. damaging a number of fairies. hurricane made landfall just a few hours ago on the 16th anniversary of hurricane katrina. although it is more powerful than that storm which back in 2005 killed almost 2000 people and inflicted around $100000000.00 in damage, louisiana official saying hurricane i will post the biggest challenge. yes, to the states newly renovated. levy says we were now returned to a topic we feel deserves more investigation than it is getting elsewhere. in the latest of a series of reports,

we are looking at the problem of transgender convicts abusing female inmates in prisons. a growing number of women say that their lives have been turned into a living hell by mail, prisoners exploiting the system. now, in one of the most notorious cases, a canada woman found themselves in danger after a predatory male offender who claimed to be identifying as a woman was sent to their prison. the was in on him have inspecting the gene in the bathroom, making out with someone else and wanting to re son with me. 3 women really the morning after bill. someone also had to take the bill, which she used under the assumption that it provides protection from 8th and habitat is the mean, the laundry room one day,

telling me how beautiful i was. and he was trying to get his name. he was super weird. all the girls were uncomfortable shell in the house with him and everything . he tried to tell me he was in love with me. it was weird. he asked me to leave for him and this girl and started making out with her and feeling her out. well, i was there he brecht told many girls his last week and he also bragged about taking the girls virginity in the library to get details as well as when they're worth your of us. he's in there. it was in the living room. do you encounter? i couldn't eat after the braces are inside women scales rating. our women men are using this loophole to access already vulnerable women who have new voice, so platform to speak from our government,

setting out women to be sexually assaulted by these may read the correctional service of canada, told rti it provides a safe and secure environment. and presence and does not tolerate sexual coercion and violence. earlier my colleagues asking taylor spoke to activists, heather mason, who shed more light on that story in canada, and described her own experience in of abuse imprison. oh, in fact, i want to get a sense of your time inside, and specifically how problems inmates affected your experience. i was incarcerated with trans individuals and prevention. that was the 1st time i came across did. and then again, when i went to federal and that was when they actually put them on compound with us, instead of segregating them away from us. and they didn't have to have surgery. so

that happened in 2017. and what was your reaction when you love that that was trans inmates living in the compound with you? well, i was actually really freak doe in provincial because they brought me over to the indirect supervision range. and there is a sex offender there that was fully intact and he was there hiding out because of his crimes. that's what the guard told me anyway, that he was trying to peek into my style when they're searching me. so that was my very 1st experience of that, but when i got to the federal and i was told that there are men on compound with us, i was blown away. i didn't believe that. i couldn't believe that they were putting males in women's presence. i was actually harassed by one of them when i was inside, used to get me to try to walk back and forth in front of them so that they could check out my but lots of other comments as well. and then i was also in the halfway

has with a male who was fully intact and it was like walking on egg shells. are you worried that there are people who are going to use the system in order to end up in a female prison? and then come out and decide that he's a man again. well, yeah, there's nothing to prevent them. if they claim transgender identity, you can't say that they're not transgender because you're discriminating against their identity or their expression, and even the ones, but do get denied transfer. there are utilizing the grievance system, which is a complaint system or a correctional services at canada, and when their complaint is not resolved, they're bringing it to the human rights tribunal. did you ever inform the gods about how uncomfortable you felt about incident you described of sexual assault? and if so, how did they react? so as women, we do not utilize the avenues that are set up for us. so the grievance system and

the human rights tribunal, we're just not, we're not taught about it. we don't understand how the system works. and for the most part, women are there. they're dealing with so much trauma, like a lot of them are like prostitution, drug addiction, and abuse their entire lives. they just accept it as another thing that's happened to them. it's reality of being female. so there are complaints and there are grievances, but not enough. women are speaking out because they're scared. did any of your fellow female prisoners have similar experiences to you? yes. some of my friends were like, pushed up against the wall in the laundry room and a hard time shut down their throats. they've had their breasts or their touch, sexual comments. a few of them have been sexually assaulted, so to speak to

a lot of women that have been incarcerated. and the stories are very similar, same of physical altercation. they've never been punched in the face so hard. they're starting to carry weapons around, which is not a normal thing for women that are incarcerated in canada. they're putting soup cans and socks because they know that they're fighting males and not women. and there's the really, really big power difference between them. candidates, prison system allows men to choose to solve a sentence and a female prison. if they say they identify as women, they don't need to undergo any thought true or human therapy. that what is enough fuel far to say this is in the name of the quality and to ensure the safety of transgender is the little change was pushed for by prime minister justin trudeau. himself, will you do your best to ensure that trans women are put in prison or prison,

more appropriate to their gender identity? yes, i will ensure that i consider myself to be a fairly strong advocate for. for l g b t q 2 issues and fairly aware of all the different pressures and this wasn't one that i had ever thought of. so thank you. have a mason whom we just heard from, says the government has to rethink its approach to the whole issue. nobody wants to speak about it, they don't want to report on it. we're being told that we're lying, that it's not happening that have bigoted use, that returns back. there's literally no discussion about it. there is no discussion before any of the policies that were implemented. and i feel like there are solution to this. they have the room in men's institutions that have wings and dorms, and they can make l g b, t q wings, better tailor to fit their unique needs over in the united states. similar concerns

have been raised. for example, by the case of janai at one row, a transgender woman in illinois who was transferred from a mens prison to a women's facility that was off to she alleged mail inmates had sexually harassed her. but in her new prison, monro herself was accused of raping a female inmate at the thought of the california past its own controversial law. now it allows trans inmates to be transferred to facilities that line with that gender identity. the law was adopted in january by may, over 216 transfer requests had been made. and that's left some female convex, very worried. i will not be a victim anymore. i haven't do with sexual abuse as young as 4 to 8 and with the rape as well as numerous main staff correctional officers being an appropriate ever since california. as as b one for 2 has passed, i have been living in constant fear. i can't mentally function without fear. if the

men come here, please help us. i'm scared just because they feel like a woman doesn't mean the penis doesn't work. we discuss california law with alex har on a co founder of partners for ethical cat and founder of the agenda mapping project . she says the well being of women prisoners is simply of no interest to legislators. senate bill 132 is, is a sentencing women who have committed whatever crime to the punishment of sexual violence at the hands of meals. and i think that in terms of the pyramids of nice, gavin newsome and scott winner and every other enabler who had the largest to happen, views, the feelings of, and the physical safety of incarcerated women at the bottom of that terra mit of

needs. when we of course understand it has to be a top ortiz keeping a close eye on similar developments in the us and elsewhere in the world. and we'll have more features on the issues raised to cost me the next round of our investigation, inter transgender crime in female presence airs tomorrow. on monday, we will look into cases in the u. s. state of california, and also in the u. k. stay with the

a military mission against them. we'll conclude on august 31st. we're ending americas longest war one, phone for did a good to us all the quote unquote a young girl. and i really need proof for my. you got to be a separate company or something. you cut the cut over the whatever them up i think that i'm on the 7th, not to get a quote to show me that this was the right weapon against the right and the local news going on about it. but it was filled out through z o o z the signing of the us taliban agreement and laid the groundwork for the road ahead toward a lasting piece. it f gamma stand not and

i know we still need that mcdonald ah ah, for me. but the speed of the whole book already the berkshire to this was how american soldiers tormented hodge. i live in grand prison where he'd been held for 5 months but said, i just don't go allowed to go. but he was trying to get a hold of job, jeez, every other much get us a buzz about i want to shut up and i was supposed to tell you, but in 2300, it was a district police chief in afghanistan and fought against the taliban february, the 26th that year,

the us military went to his workplace at the police department and arrested him. buses. i've come to get up to one of the valuable to do something about a book that is that you said no need to move this up after his arrest. how did you get a bush thrown into a cell from either you got to be subtle. company said that the cut cut all the way with a little more, but i bet i'm on the wall only the 7 days. not to get things alicia minute. deborah, get out of us when the yo new saba will mclean. i don't want to, but hello, how about or no? doesn't notice that. 4 out of my, you got my sunday that goes, there was, you know, the state, but after the 911 attack, the us invaded afghanistan. their goal was to eliminate delta eat as needed and

overthrow the taliban that had been in power at the time. the united states established a military base in bagram and built a prison there by the same prison to which hodge i live with death and human bug on top of that one other one exactly well over the well not to but again, it's really all the shuttle that actually trip the muscle shut up, leaving more food or clean. just cut off. so he said he took the as you go, it was tortured for alleged links with the taliban, with whom the americans would later meet at the negotiating table. on february, the 29th 2020 a peace treaty signed obliging nato states to withdraw their troops in return. for taliban guarantees that i've got this down will not become a safe haven for terrorists. i'm going to put

a cover. so i want to get to know what you know, that there's
