it is the work for me, one above above me and the taliban celebrates, taking full control of done is done after declaring its defeat the remnants of the resistance to taliban fight and saying they still hold part of the eastern time. she had also become a convicted rapist, suspected terrorists discovered among style and germany from afghanistan. destroyer in the new bill lives, authorities, access the internet to the devices of any body under investigation. we debate the controversial election. people can be anonymous on the internet and get them so all

sorts of criminal activity causing all sorts of you brandy, almost an entire nation is criminal. everyone to suspect they approve innocent. ah . good evening disco, 9 o'clock here in moscow. you watching artie international now the taliban came to have absolute control over afghanistan after defeating the last pocket of resistance in the eastern punchy province. excuse me, although those reports have been denied by anti taliban fighters in the region. reporting from couple his murdered guest. yes. 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 apple 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, very close a waves almost. and at that point we decide that it perhaps it's, it's best to remain in doors and we later learn that as many as 17 people from 7 to 17, depending on the various sources a 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 the taliban was celebrating the military offensive against the lost hold. our province against taliban rule in kindness. don punch in the province

. we also learned that perhaps the celebrations were very mature because the resistance, those anti taliban forces stationed in pine valley have 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 been tardy 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, u r g has also spoken. so those forces fighting against the tide about your body and they say that while they will 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 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 enough, gannons thoughts? not on the taliban rule. the rest of the country is under direct taliban control. and italy uncontested. laura against you reporting that were despite promising to get every us state funded journalist out of afghanistan, hundreds were left behind the last american play and departed. and all those that did managed to get out many did need the help of, of the governments don't quarter has more because of our men and women in uniform.

more than 25000000 afghans are free afghans shanisha democracy. 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 f canister. for 20 long years. the u. s . has tried to force feed afghan to 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 and spout and need an era 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, that 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, bare 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 country's 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, radio liberty mission is to promote democratic vail use and institutions by reporting the use 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 say only 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 agents 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 of all the money in the world. so, you know, you can always at the prices, right? so we might step up to the plate and do it. what we have asked the u. s. federal agency for global media to comment on this story and we'll let you know when we get a reply. now people being left behind isn't the only thing the public has been

blasting the us for because apparently over a 100 dogs, some of them used by the military were abandoned despite efforts of an animal rescue center in cabal to fly them out for the boy k as more in the story, what's called the internet mazda than anything, a handful of what looks like a band and coaches. this photo has gone viral, purportedly showing us military service dog left behind. on the tarmac in couples ravaged apple fog, a major backlash online with learning people suggesting that this image is a symbol of the heartlessness of joe biden, dithering administration. but washington says this latest pile on isn't fat. fake news? apparently, the caged animal was anything to do with the us military. they belonged to contractors and had been passed and were in the process of being evacuated by a point, but animal shelter and couple called

a couple small animal rescue. our sources for this or the pentagon and the department of defense folks person. the dogs in the picture are actually in the care of cobbled small animal rescue and animal welfare organization. the 1st casualty of war though is truth and the fate of the dogs in the cages is still a mystery. i was talking to ortiz, mariah garcia, who is one of the early reporters on the ground in capital. and he told me that it's still not clear who's dogs these why and why they were left behind the crate, such as the last one kind of an official apparent, 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, the taliban has contacted animal control dog control to catch them. i know they say they haven't sentenced them to 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 emerge, it led to a comment 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 called penn bobbing. when one conservative politician, you will so happens to be an afghan war that trent was questioned about that this was the difficulty is 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 is one interpreter, i'll speak a few days ago, was my 5 year old with less than your dog that point. and i,

while the u. s. is accused of rescuing too few people from afghanistan. germany might have taken a few too many because among those it's a lifted 20 have turned out to be people have question including suspected terrorists and a convicted rapist. he's all your correspondent, peter oliver. 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 out 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. he was 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 merkel said would have priority, that people who had work directly with german military, german, diplomat, 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 vacation alteration 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. he, when you look at these people as well, like the, the man i mentioned had previously been reported. 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 in 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 who 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. meanwhile, turkey has reinforces eastern border with a ran to cater for the mass ex. this from afghanistan and new 150 kilometer war in van province is 3 meters high, is top 3 barbed wire. and his patrol around the clock was still come, few this hour the messaging service, what's up? guess a massive fire from the you. what it does with use this data will be back for the details in a couple of the

ah, is your media a reflection of reality? the, in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? tyson lation community. are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted. you need to defend the so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. i join me every

thursday on the alex summon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world. the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me the, the news ah mackey without a foreign diplomats working in russia, including from the united states in germany, a being accused of funding, political opposition movements. russia foreign ministry says, one of the main beneficiaries was the now defunct organisation of the prominent activist elects in the valley. konstantin roscoe has more on the 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 in lex in developing 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's political affairs by foreign states and maria harv, i couldn't help but draw parallels with 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 the scheme looked like, according to maria's 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 inciting 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 in the russian politics. movies in brief, now for saturday, september has been a busy one of protests round the world 1st here in london where nancy migration march was met with a kind of protest. there were some minor scuffles between demonstrators and police, with opposing marches. clearly at numbering initials and then in paris, tango became restrictions or thousands to and i was again in protest at faxing part is mandatory jobs. there was a heavy police presence. there's previous gatherings had occasionally island, and then in greece, dozens of right wing at gathered in central athens to protest the arrival of little mile 3 and a half feet high. profit of a serene child,

which is travelling across europe in support of refugees. please intervene to separate rival groups after the actors were met by a counter protest. destroying parliament has passed a bill that grounds police powers to access and control the social media suspected criminals. it will also allow authorities to modify and delete suspects data and even hack their devices without having to to seek a judges approval. now is said, the powers are needed to fight terrorism and child exploitation, much of which is conducted on line creek so distressed that the new bill makes the extremely and police judge jury and executioner. while for instance, in britain and the united states, no similar powers have been granted. now at the same time, there's also been discussion too about introducing id checks for uses on social media and dating apps. it's claim that would help tackle online abuse and destroying would be asked to answer $100.00 point questionnaire before setting up

an account. so it would essentially remove anonymity on the internet for many, although it is still just a proposal. this stage we put the issues up for discussion. 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 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 an

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 like speed over the last few decades. and so problems have a reason where and legitimate interests of the state legitimacy interests of the course. legitimate interest of others have 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 aid id of people. people use email addresses and credit cards and they pay for things entities nearly always possible to,

to find out who they are, no matter where they are in the world. and you know, this is the dope of the police. here's 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. no, no, 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's the, the, the, 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 that got proper grounds for it. and so those things do take time, so it's getting the 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 the possibly can because they can elsewhere islands. data regulator has slapped the whatsapp messaging service with the record 225000000 euro fine for breaching you data privacy laws. it does relate to a probe loans in 2018 questioning the transparency of the company's privacy policy . they do include the way use this data is processed and clarity over high rules replied on the platform. the commission caused the violations. very serious. so they facebook own sap to say disagrees with the decision also, infringement, same of you, very serious nature. they go to the heart of the general principle after spare, and see, and to fund a mental right of the individual to protection of he's help us. no 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. but it's not the 1st instance of penalties being imposed on tact shines in europe because just this some you might remember amazon mis find by luxembourg regulates for breaking e date protection rules as well. however, privacy campaigner and tech expert, they'll me believe that the fines point really act is a deterrent. 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 to the different level. the problem that we have is, while nominally under g d, p r, you can find a country for 4 percent of its revenue. very few of the data protection authorities are doing this. facebook and what's up or in a position where they are regularly falling fall of the regulations. i'm facing

already. fraction at all. this volume is, is up the chicken feed to them. 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 these out as long as they can. and the iris regulate. it's just trying to attract 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. and they really don't want to run the boat. and that brings you up, said i just coming up to half past 9 the evening. moscow will be back with more news in the headlines in about 30 minutes. the the
