companies would lose millions and millions or is business and business is good. and that is the reality of what we're facing, which is fascist. ah, the taliban celebrates taking full control of afghanistan off the declaring they defeated the remnants of the resistance, but anti taliban fighters claim they still hold part of the eastern pansy province . a convicted rapist and suspects on terra watch lists to discover among asylum seekers lifted to germany from afghanistan. and australia introduces a new bill that allows authorities access to internet accounts to hack the devices of anyone under investigation. we debate the controversial regulation. people can be anonymous on the internet and get up to all sorts of criminal activity,

causing all sorts of you brandy, almost an entire nation. it's criminal. everyone is the 1st feel they approved in a sense, ah, i there you without the international from moscow. my name is colleen bray. good to have you with this this weekend. these are the stories were across for you this hour. the town about now claims to have absolute control over afghanistan defeating the last pocket of resistance in the eastern pantry, a province where thousands of anti taliban fighters had formed a stronghold. but in conflicting news after days of fears fighting, the opposition says it's holding fast. reporting from cobble, here's our senior correspondent during the night, the city of cavil again erupt. it in almost spontaneous gunfire. with a constant rule, most of, of rifles firing straight around into the air was very reminiscent of what happened

when the last of american troops pulled out of terrible airport the taliban, celebrated by firing into the air logged into the night. well, yesterday as we fill matter up here, we had the characteristic sound a bullet makes as it passes. 1 very close a waves almost and at that point we decide that it perhaps its, its best to remain in doors and we later learned that as many as 17 people from 7 to 17 depending on the various sources died as a result of that gun flaw. yesterday the taliban had since forbidden firing into the air in full celebration by its side to say any fight that caught doing so would have his weapon confiscated and would himself be punished. the celebration was launched, allegedly because of the taliban was celebrating the military offensive against the lost hold our province against taliban rule in kindness on punch in the province.

we also learned that perhaps the celebrations were pretty mature because the resistance, those anti taliban forces stationed in pine valley come out and said that they haven't yet broken that they're still holding out. and the fighting is going the ongoing. but there are losses on both sides. we have heard from contacts today that the taliban hasn't the entirety of the problems, but rather several strategic heights and several areas of the proven they have launched attacks from the north, from the south, from the east west surrounded pines, yet archie has also spoken. so those forces fighting against the tide about your body and they say that while they were welcome negotiations, they are prepared to fight to the end. just to remind everyone, negotiations stretched on for about a week before this offensive began with had about representatives traveling to

budget, trying, trying to establish a piece to ship peaceful resolution to this standup. but the taliban saying that negotiations fell through because the demands that the and to tell about forces were making seem to them to be unreasonable. we had heard reports of them demanding 30 percent of municipals in any new government that is formed here and gotten done . but again, i shared province is the last remaining province in ghana. not on the taliban rule, the rest of the country is under direct taliban control and italy uncontested. despite promising to get every us state from the journalist out of afghanistan, nonetheless, hundreds were left behind. as the last american plane departed during the evacuation, some did eventually managed to escape, but only with help from other governments. because there are men and women in uniform,

more than 25000000 afghans are free. have ghana shanisha democracy. i finally want to thank the incredible work of our u. s. military who are doing so much to help bring about a more secure and prosperous and democratic afghanistan for 20 long years. the u. s . has tried to force feed afghan, a stand freedom and democracy. now they have another fiasco to show for it. this decision about that can stand, it is not just by that in spout ending an error of major military operations to re make other countries not more than they've been trying to civilize the people who live there. although in essence, it means they have been trying to implement their own system of values and rules in the widest sense of the word. and that included the political structure. so it's the result, nothing but tragedies and losses on both sides sustained by those who did it. i. e, the united states, and even more so by the people who live in afghanistan,

the the colossal waste of money time and human life have no doubt amounted to one of america's biggest defeats, but further muddying its reputation or the hundreds of employees of its global media agency still stranded there with their families last year alone, the usa g. m state funded outlets like voice of america and radio free europe spent over $5000000.00 to win the countries hearts and minds. the organization claims to have the ears of over 60 percent of the afghan population as well. no doubt cutting edge propaganda was just as important to washington as state of the art bombs.

radio free europe and radio. liberty mission is to promote democratic vail use and institutions by reporting the news in countries where a free press his band by the government, or not fully established, voice of america will serve as a constantly reliable and authoritative source of news was of america will represent america not any single segment of american society, and will therefore present a balanced and comprehensive projection of significant american thought and institutions. officials on the house foreign affairs committee, se the 50 usa gm journalists were able to escape after getting help from other governments. the state department hasn't even put forward a concrete plan to get its own personnel back home. it just relate a promise that no one has been forgotten. we did not forget about you say, jam employees and families are, will, we will remain keenly focused on getting them out safely. just as soon as we can, the usa g m spokesperson has confirmed that their people are still in

a life and death situation. we've asked us a gm exactly how many there are, but reports suggest around $500.00 employees and their families remain a situation. republicans describe as disgraceful. my office was working with one of these journalists and tried for 2 weeks to get attention brought his case. so he, his wife and his infant child could be saved, but our police were ignored. it's absolutely disgraceful. the us state department claimed they evacuated the local employees when in reality they abandoned hundreds of usa gm journalists and their families. a scrambled evacuation terrorist attacks a couple airport and a government that doesn't exactly love the us state department. it's a horrifying situation. it's a horrifying ideal. i mean, we've essentially, our government essentially left these people to be murdered, slaughtered by the taliban. these people were as seen by taliban. they were us propaganda. agent hired and paid by the u. s. government to to report news

favorable to democracy, to, to the west, to the u. s. government. and now we've just abandoned them. this is unconscionable . it's immoral. it's disgusting. because the american people do not think of their government as a sort of government that would do something like that. and yet, here we are, the sort of people who have been a top priority to getting out of afghanistan along with others who have been in the cross hairs of the taliban. and now they're essentially stuck and left to fend on their own. it's going to be very difficult to get others trust united states government. but then again, you know, our military industrial complex is all the money in the world. so, you know, you can always at the prices, right? so it might step up to the plate and do it. we've asked the u. s. federal agency for global media, a comment on this will bring you their response as soon as we hear anything back. meantime people big left behind. isn't there anything the public's been blasting the u. s. for apparently over a 100 dogs? some of the military,

k nines were abandoned despite the efforts of an animal rescue center and cobbled to fly them out. of the founder of the nonprofit is reported to still be in afghanistan, poly boys reports what's called the internet mazda than anything. a handful of what looks like a bonded cou kids. this photo have gone viral, purportedly showing us military service dog left behind. on the tarmac in couples ravaged apple bugs, a major backlash on line with learning people suggesting that this image is a symbol of the heartlessness of joe biden, dithering administration. but washington says, this latest pylon isn't fat. fake news. apparently, the case animal was anything to do with the us military. they belonged to contractors and had been passed. them were in the process of being evacuated by a point, but animal shelter and couple called a couple small animal rescue sources for the,

for the pentagon and the department of defense, folk person, the dogs in the picture are actually in the care of cobble small animal rescue and animal welfare organization. the 1st casualty of war though, is truth and the fate of the dog in the cages is still a mystery. i was talking to ortiz, moronic as dia. he's one of the early reports on the ground in capital, and he told me that it's still not clear whose dog sees why and why they were left behind. the great food such as on lot one kind of an official, a bar. he told me that they'll retrain and we deploy the dog to work for them. instead, they're still running around the perimeter of the airport and the taliban. ah. but taliban has contacted animal control dog control to catch them. i know they say they haven't sentenced them. the death, just like with the war itself,

america just call when online right now. earlier in august when actual footage of us service dogs being evacuated from capital, did it lead to your comments that american dogs lives were more precious than those of afghan human u. k. government came on defy a couple of weeks ago as well for being too slow to help with the evacuation of 150 cats and dogs from a campbell animal shelter run by an expert marine corps pen balding when one conservative politician you will so happens to be an afghan war that trent was questioned about that this was his difficulties getting people into and out of the airport. and we just use a lot of troops to bring in 200 dogs. meanwhile, my interpreter family likely to be killed as one interpreter of me a few days ago was my 5 year old with less than that point of all the us is accused

of rescuing too few people from afghanistan. germany might have taken a few too many for missing it evacuated 20 people of question including suspected terrorists and the convicted rapist among the refugees. his europe corresponded and he was able to airlift around 4 and a half 1000 people out of the country before cobble international airport was closed. that going through the process of identifying exactly who has arrived here in the country right now. while they've been doing that, while they've uncovered that, amongst those people that came here on the evacuation flight to germany was one saw doubt. mohammed. and the reason he is being named like that is because he was very well known to german authorities. the reason he was very well known was because he previously being deported from germany that was off the in 2012. he was convicted of having raped his daughter over multiple years by a court in munich. now he was sentenced to 8 years in 3 months for crime. was that

deported to afghanistan? back in 2019. we have heard from the interior ministry previously saying that there was no way to carry out checks on the ground in cobble for exactly who was getting on german evacuation flights. some of them totally falsified their papers from a to said. there was an emergency, and cocoa and such situations are always exploited by criminals. for the german government identifies around 40000 people still in afghanistan that it says should be able to come here to germany. when you look at about 4 and a half 1000 people that have already been evacuated though, well, when it comes to the people that angular merkle said would have priority. that people who had work directly with german military, german, diplomat. so german and $200.00 of those were on those flights that have already

left. when you included in the family, members of those people. well, you're still looking at less than one in 5 of the people that are already being brought to germany. having fits into that category that anglo miracle said were the priority long. we will continue their vocation operation for as long as possible in order to make it possible for after school worked with us for security, freedom, the rule of law and development to leave the country. so when you look at these people as well, like the, the man i mentioned who had previously been deported, we had heard from the interior ministry that they said happened. the number that was previously given was that there was 4 such cases. well, that's now being revised into a well, incredibly vague, there's many or more by the federal police who are on the ground and frankfurt airport. you are going through the task of identifying people who come here on evacuation flights. now as soon as the cargo airport is reopened,

we are expecting more hoping that more of those people can come here to germany. however, as it stands at the moment you're seeing germany having missed its target for people at wanted to evacuate from afghanistan by 90 percent. and also having issues with those who have been able to come here on the evacuation flights that have already arrived. now the developments turkey has reinforced its eastern border with iran to kate over the mass exodus from afghanistan, a new 150 kilometer long wall in van province, 3 meters high top with bob wyatt, and also go round the clock on the patrols to keep a close watch. good. have you with us this saturday on our say on the way messaging service, whatsapp gets an expensive regulatory slap from the e. u. and it's all about uses privacy, you know, with our tier the weekend to go away. the

hello, driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask me. ah

ah, me the law again, the number of foreign diplomats working in russia, including from the u. s. and germany being accused of handing out generous financial support to political opposition movements here, the russian foreign ministry says, one of the main beneficiaries was the now defunct organization of prominent activist alexi and about me. constantine brush, coff has more. lemme claims these are quite serious allegations that we're looking at here. according to maria harvey. russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman western embassies in russia help fund opposition. figure election development, who is now serving time in jail after being convicted for embezzlement and reaching

his parole condition. in the eyes of the authorities. this of course, amounts to blatant interference in russia political affairs by foreign states and maria harv. i couldn't help but draw parallels where the heated debate between russia and the us that ensued in the wake of america, 2016 presidential election following the 2016 elections in the us. doesn't the fresh and diplomats were accused of meddling in the election process and expelled without any proof whatsoever? i dread to think what would have happened if they had found a single dollar transferred from russia to any party in america. and this is what this game looked like, according to maria harbor for an embassies, namely the u. s. and germany hired russian citizens to transfer money to the val man, he's projects as a private donations, one of them. the anti corruption fund, was brenda, an extremist organization. for in finding an authorized demonstrations in russia earlier this year, maria, the harvest says it's unclear whether the transfers were done voluntarily by embassy staff,

who simply sympathized with an invalid. the or it just may be part of their salaries, were designated to sponsor the russian opposition all along. what's important here is that for officials, the situation is totally unacceptable. and is a clear case of meddling and the russian politics at the 1st saturday of september has been a busy one for protests around the world 1st in london. then wherein an immigration march was met with a counter protest. the worst of minus scuffles between demonstrators and police with opposing marches, clearly outnumbering the initial procession. in paris and grove, a covey restrictions or thousands, turned out again and protested things like vaccine passes and mandatory jobs. there was a heavy presence as you might expect, because as we've reported here several weekends, previous gatherings have occasionally turned violent mean time in grace, it was a puppet, the called the protest of dozens of right wing activists in central athens. it's

called little mile. it's a 3 and a half me to high puppet of a syrian child, which is traveling across europe in support of refugees and to raise awareness of the plight. police intervene to separate rival groups off the activists were matched by a counter practice in parliament, passed a bill to grant police powers to access suspects, social media accounts, and even control them. it'll allow the authorities to modify and delete suspects data and hacked the devices or without having to seek a judges approval. it said the powers needed to fight terrorism and child exploitation, much of which is conducted on line critics. i was stressed that the new bill makes the australian police judge jury and executioner bomb. for instance, in britain, in the us. no such powers have been grounded at the same time. there's also been discussion about the possibility of introducing id checks, figures as on social media, and also dating apps. australians will be asked to answer

a 100 point questionnaire before setting up an account. essentially putting an end to anonymity on the internet for many suggestions also aimed at tackling online abuse. but it didn't make its way into the current bill. we got some reaction about the unprecedented powers now being given to the police. i believe that people should be identifiable relatively quickly and relatively straightforwardly. should they do something which harms others. things like that are always useful to investigations into investigative offices because communication between individuals is usually a key part of that investigation. and evidentially very important this. this is clearly police haven, you know police needs to do no more. we call it fascism. really because this is where the government is effectively controlling the media. in this case,

social media or the internet that the source of the problem is that social media and internet communication has moved on leaps and bounds. and legislation hasn't kept up with it. probably because legislation simply cannot lose that fast. and communication technology has moved incredible speed, light speed over the last few decades. and so problems have a reason where the legitimate interests of the state legitimacy interests of the courts, legitimate interest of others of failed to provide sufficient ways into internet communications. and so that lacks behind the times. the reality is that in nearly all cases we are able to, to unravel the id of people. people who use email addresses and credit

cards and they pay for things. and it is nearly always possible to, to find out who they are, no matter where they are in the world. and you know, this is the deal of the police. yes, the police will lead to work a little bit and do a little bit of digging and do a little bit of investigation in order. now you cannot incriminate being an entire nation. in practice, people can be anonymous on the internet and get up to all sorts of criminal activity, closing all sorts of home with the states and judicial bodies, having no practical way of getting behind that. and so that, that is the home that needs to be addressed. so the balance has to be struck where there are sufficient safeguards to make sure that the police are doing it on the spec, as it were. and they've got proper grounds for it. and so those things do take time, so it's getting that balance, right?

remember, governments will take as much power as they possibly can. and this is what the stream in government is doing. now they are just taking as much power as they possibly can because they can elsewhere islands data regulator has slaps the whatsapp messaging service with the record 225000000 euro find the breaching you data privacy laws. it relates to a probe, launched in 2018 questioning the transparency of the company's privacy policies. they included the way uses data is processed and clarity over how rules are applied on the platform, the commissioner calls the violations very serious. swells. facebook on whatsapp says it disagrees with the decision also, infringement, same of you, very serious nature. they go to the heart of the general principle of transparency and fundamental right of the individual to protection of keys help us know data. we have worked to ensure the information we provide is transparent and comprehensive

and will continue to do so. we disagree with the decision today regarding the transparency we provided to people in 2018 and the penalties are entirely disproportionate. was the 1st instance of penalties being imposed on tech joins in europe just this summer. amazon was fined by luxembourg regulator, the breaking a new data protection rules as well. but privacy campaign or in tech experts build new, believes that as huge as these fines look, the firms what really notice. but there are some companies on facebook and google examples of this, but actually have a business model based on exploiting data. and these companies need to be held to account for the different level. the problem that we have is, while nominally under g d p o, you can find a company for 4 percent of its revenue. very few of the dental protection authorities are doing this. facebook and walks out or in a position where they are regularly falling fall of the regulations. i'm finding, placing rental fraction at all this volume is,

is up the chicken feed to them. and they all have enormously deep pockets. and there's actually no assurance that this form will actually ever be levied against them. they can go to appeal and they will stretch this out as long as they can. and the irish regulator, it's just trying to tracks a big tech booms to base that european headquarters in ireland for a favorable tax regime. now falling in charge of regulating these organizations and holding them out. i really don't want the boat. i was here on the social this weekend and look up, our team will keep you posted with news and that's 247. that's it from the news room for now. andrew pharma will be in here and just have a half an hour to update. you, again, thanks for watching the the, the the,

i think was your mind indeed gets up against them with a great decision over the last 30 years. it, it was the 1st decision which didn't follow the course of the event and history. live was an attempt to change the course. and the biggest task or the statement is to contradict history is to change the historical part from the national 4 important. what actually july them did the the war on drugs started as a way to come back, a great problem. what's the wonder? it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of north dakota, and it got to be something that you could get elected. this time,

the fight against drugs took a check. he told us that andrew was competent. sean form. this is way too dangerous for him to be doing. clearly they put him in harm's way. a rural college student does interest gets shot in the head and found in a river like something else had to be happening. i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except when the shorter the conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial. the point obviously is too great truck rather than fear take on various jobs with the artificial intelligence real summoning the demon

a robot most protects its own existence with exist. ah, i use alice gave meant they said he was to sidle, may take him to.
