u. s. u k, a raising phase of maybe an open conflict. also innovations and orthodontics. we got a glimpse for you at the cutting edge technology being developed by one leading dental firm here in moscow. ok, so moment 3 point my own my line off. ah, what? it's actually pretty serious and i don't feel that's changed the way that i choose not one most good time of the morning. 2nd of august live from ortiz, will be sent to you or moscow. it's kevin, i did like to be with you. thanks for your company. let me bring you our latest then. and as you heard and a headlines, my demonstrations and golfing from germany, even italy as police clash would protest with a thing of over the restrictions since early july deli infection cases in western europe have remained low, but they are still on the rise the the okay, those close we can see where we are this monday morning. are your correspondent peter all over on the line? money paid a was always going to happen. the longer this went on, of course, the more angry a lot of people were going to get to the polarized opinion, isn't it? that's right. we've seen these protests across western european, particularly in france and italy, and here in germany as well as people are unhappy with coven restriction that have been put in place. and typically when it comes to requirements or potential requirements for what's being called the green digital path, a digital vaccine certificate, if you will. now those demonstrations across western europe, they turn nasty times over the weekend. we are civilian, we just want our basic rights and they are the ones formed for taking action against the stability that you need to convince or who have to $949.00 and they are doing it should've been here to defend freedom of speech because manual micro on this trying to stifel any kind of public interest to the privilege calling the country past, which is in fact the way to control people get well the, you green pass house cause much of pro, particularly in front, swept over 200000 people across the country came out onto the streets to vent their own happiness. it was a much smaller affair here in lin, around 5000 people coming out. that's after the court in germany said that the demonstration couldn't go ahead as it was the potential to be a super strider event for cobra. one thing though is that did come out onto the streets of the german capital were met with, well, we met by riot police who were black. so with water cannon, if he's not interested, we'd carried out around $100.00. the rest in relation to among other things by elections of the band on assembly, but relation in fiction for one of resistance and only motion on him. i will let him franz health union bosses or encouraging amanew red mccombs government to make the vaccination mandatory while it's no cold for that type of thing. here in germany, what we are hearing from senior politicians is if you get the vaccination and you get your vaccination certificate, all will be fine. if you don't, there's not going to be much that you're going to have access to. anyone who has fully vaccinated will get back there, right. what is needed now? are clear lines so that we don't blunder into autumn. those who have been offered vaccination and consciously rejected, it will no longer be tested for free. well, compared to countries like the united states and the united kingdom cases of cobra, 19 across western europe, remain low, however they all rising. and here in germany, the rather khaki institute, the federal institute that looks after public health and disease control is already warning that we may be on the coast of a poor wave. because 90. yeah, her can. so that doesn't happen. but yet when she was going that way, doesn't it? thanks for no update this morning. a german political analyst type is solely spoke to. he told us that the authorities have taken no issue, though with similar gatherings that didn't challenge their policies. some of the most well, the most content tracked down on positions in germany, the receipt and reading memory trace and not telling the government are allowed to go forward. and even how the government organized by government coalition was to be in the middle of the day. only the whole thing were taking is today, meeting were the german government, berlin, regional government allow mach 7 times over 80 people last weekend for one of your lots of gay rights parade to be held in the street, the berlin participation of the mayor. and of course, the police are not cracked out on the back. and they were wearing masks, they were kissing, and the 3 is there i am the german. but so in the same way the pro, to the today should have to take care, right. read them off the family and the b. e in. they are in the jungle. while europe's reggie against covert roles, the number of cases has risen sharply across america with an almost 10 fold increase last month. and there's little consensus too and her best to tackle it there. even must guidelines, members of the us administration themselves are confused. it seems about the latest restrictions are to to meet repub picks up that part of the story science statistics. apparently none of those things really matter when dealing with cove it because the whole thing seems to have become more about politics than anything else . take florida just recently reported a record breaking 21000 new daily cases. the state literally accounts for about a 5th of all new cases in the us. but nevertheless, florida's governor ron de santis continues to refuse, imposing restrictions to prevent the spread of the disease. in florida. they will be no look downs. there will be no school closures. there will be no restrictions and no mandates, no mask mandates, no vaccine requirements. many fear the whole thing might become a repeat of last year's coded crisis in new york. back then that liberal states delayed response, which led to numerous death was blamed on political resistance to then president donald trump. but with democrat, joe biden. now in charge and calling the shots. it seems that florida's republican governor is just doing the exact same thing and regular people feel like they're caught in the middle of it. there is a political situation involved in it and it's also for the ministration that also helped fuel more the political away mass before anyway. is it for the well being a very disrespectful to run what i just feel like he's not doing enough to check the people here and i just wish you would come around and get the politics not to little about i know that's about our children. it's about us going on as what i think about the mike to see. i think at this point about seeing, i think the value of the on what to choose whether whether or not i think a lot of posing behind it. a lot of teachers do. i feel safe for using my musk because we are still in upon demick. my wife died of coven, a month ago, and this is a choice i'm making. i don't get into politics. people have their opinions, but i don't get into that political rivalry seem to be the root cause of all the confusion surrounding cove. it officials across the us. can you and seem to decide whether wearing masks should be a requirement with georgia governors saying that they're not required. but atlanta is mayor saying that they're mandatory. and yeah, they're not from the same party. georgia will not look down or impose statewide mask mandates, escorted 19 rates of chris. we must remain vigilant, wherein ask full federal guidelines and all the major is to ensure the safety and will be uniform communities. you think at least the president would have a consistent approach to the whole thing, but no, besides needing a teleprompter to remind him what his opinion even is bite and can't seem to stick to a single stance on anything bit masks, vaccines are locked out really bad you no longer need to wear the mac and it was in there where like losing the math forever through all this indecisiveness pared with constantly changing rules and guidelines has even congress members reaching their boiling point. first they chose don't wear a mask where a mask where to mask the nic. and golf and we're running around here. speaker, come down here, 10 o'clock in the morning thing we got to where math. i hate these things. we're absolutely sick and tired of it. and so the american people, biden's own staff members apparently don't know what the official stance is supposed to be. first the white house deputy press secretary says that locked downs are out of the question. and soon thereafter, biden completely contradicts her. we have the tools in our 2 belt to fight this, this, this to fight this vaccine. and we, we are not, we are not going to head towards a lockdown. we'll do infection rates, hospitalizations, death employment numbers, whether they're on the rise or declining. none of it seems to actually matter to the people in charge. the war against cove it has turned into yet another political battlefield and regular americans are just caught in between left to fend for themselves. but nothing has been done with the sole purpose of the american people for. ready absolutely not in my lifetime, and most likely not my parents wait time either i think everything is done with how they can best benefit those at the top, how they can best benefit banks, how they can best benefit their shareholders, whether campaign contributors, it's very convenient for the government to say that it's called on individual on people, or if you get back to me at or on people who are wary of another lockdown pandemic as late bear the contradictions that get on the system. and just how honorable is and you know, and by the way to say to he's leading us out of the pen demik, but clearly it's not the case. if we still have to talk about being locked out and we're seeing on america the united states, diverge into political circus. circus is that nice way of saying it? to the people united states are much better israel's prime ministers threatened to retaliate against iran after claiming he had proof carried out a deadly attack on a tank or the re, b and c to run denies responsibility and pledges a severe response if attacked. hey, ron is the one that carried out the attack against the ship intelligence sources have uncovered evidence of this. and we expect the international community to make clear the iranian regime that they have made a serious mistake. in any case, we know how to convey the message to iran in our own way. god. this is not the 1st time to diligence occupying ration and jerusalem has made such false accusations against the correct public of iran in such a gives a sense of completely on just that they must, no problems will not be resolved by such position. those to attempt to strike a blow he will face a big blow. lumnick republic of the run will not hesitate for a moment to protect the interests of its people and its national security. so the suspected grown strike on the vessel happened last week, killing 2 crew members, although no evidence is being presented, proving that to run responsible. nonetheless, the u. s. and the u. k. of joined israel. it is accusations, claiming it's highly likely that the attack was conducted by iran. upon review of the available information. we are confident that iran conducted this attack, which kill 2 innocent people using one way explosive. you a, these, a lethal capability. it is increasingly employing throughout the region. there is no justification for this attack which follows a pattern of attacks and of a belligerent behavior. we believe this attack was deliberate, targeted, and actually a violation of international law by iran. u. k. assessments have concluded that is highly likely that iran attacked the n v most, the streets in international waters of amman on 29 july using one or more unmanned aerial vehicles. richard becker for the hon. i'm so alicia believes that israel is determined to provoke, to run any way. can israeli government is hoping to to derail the j. c.

u. s. and the u. k. to dispatch 3600 troops to cobble to help pull out embassy stuff and local interpreters will talk about all of this with rub mcbride, joining us from cobble now 7 30 in the morning. their morning rob take us to the territory, gaines. first of all, it is quite extraordinary since sundown thursday here in afghanistan to what is now daybreak here friday morning. the dynamics in the country seem to have changed once more. do have to say its immediate future, especially given events down in the south of the country and the storming by taliban fighters, right into kandahar itself. this kandahar is afghanistan's 2nd city. it has. it is right down in the hot land of taliban country in the south of the country, a kind of providence and its neighboring province of helmand. because of this is basically become a fortress. it's very important for the government to hold onto that. even though much of the rest of the provinces gradually fallen away to the taliban. the kandahar was heavily defended.

u. s. u k. troops leave? well, look at what's happening and one sound right now is a ground 0 off american ambition. the failure all the american policy of the 3 formation and democracy creation failed. but so had the big push in reconciliation with the bond that they have sought to legitimize the giving wrong to the 5000 prisoners from a 100 prisoners that they have been given power to. so just say now that back a son is responsible for she's not giving thanks judy that, that her mom don't me thank to re they live in lash whatever rules and apartment the door. and they also have access to it. i know, you know, has a state now there are many, many actors and players interested in responsibility. but i think the sun is in the front line of those smith, not sure. i'm not child clothes, iran and the taliban given that iran has taken in around 800000, maybe a 1000000 more than a 1000000 refugees. did nato troops to invade the wrong country? i mean, after 911 sure. they have invaded pakistan because it was package

economic trouble with $19.00 say, with al serra, the latest update, and in depth analysis of what the future may hold for the country. the i i the i was in the i me 6 or 8 pm, august for 2020. that's been a large explosion in lebanon's capital bay. ruth. within the last hour, the not only heard it, adrian fell in love with the capital me. some reports are suggesting that it happened as a route course i was a lot, but 1st away the glass broke everywhere. d the, with so much is destroyed the biggest support is in the heart of the capital, along a busy highway and close to densely populated neighborhoods. the without warning, what is the largest non nuclear glasses in history kills more than $200.00 people, interest, thousands and leaves hundreds of thousands homeless. ah, authority saith the blast was caused by highly exclusive material stored at a warehouse in before. ah, that highly exclusive material was ammonium nitrate at the time authorities problem is that transparent investigation they promised results in 5 days, but it's been a year and the lead judge in the case has been facing fierce political backlash as he attempts to prosecute some of those beliefs to be responsible for unsafely storing the chemical out the ports. there are still many questions surrounding the ammonium nitrate and how much of it was inside the warehouse. at the time of the blood the multiple videos that were taken moments before the blast till part of the story. there was a fire at warehouse twelth. at 554 p. m minutes before the explosion. the fire brigade received a call from the police 9 fire fighters and a female paramedic immediately responded the short drive to the port would be their last journey on board. she would it would be the status of the solid. ben chavez, law in albany over capital should have been kind of how this, how does it love it, get out of a box? and then adjust the how the, how do i look for so knowing how to show it, how does it come mother alone? i don't have to michelle michelle, i'm retiring. look, i had a lumber. seca, hadn't had an initial fee. it had to do their colleagues. they were sent to their almost certain death. they weren't told about the dangers. they weren't prepared and they couldn't protect themselves. some of the firefighters are seen in the photo trying to force open one of the doors of the burning warehouse because no one at the court had the key. ah, that was no before the explosion. there was a smaller one before a larger blast, seconds later. believe to have been caused by the stockpile of ammonium nitrate madman for i'm wondering my trade can mottled mamma. well then you hear the fuel as miss and all as if all her daughter alcohols had mosel's. mom i've been taught here last got it can feel my where most i had more than was tyler and famine. vapors. vapors mom. ammonium nitrate haunted by little hopper in ammonium. nitrate is used as a fertilizer, but it's also a component to make box. the photos that have since emerged showed a disaster and waiting a cocktail of flavor. double materials were unsafely stored together. ammonium nitrate or not? is it not directed? that's not a efficient matter figured law as an not dynamic ammonium nitrate mechanical trigger. either mechanical triggers, it was a billboard. can file a month fireworks, a cam center and the not bless. you allow a firework and mechanical trigger. the pressure actor, ammonium nitrate behind lucille. but what started the fire investigators who have still to find the answer, say it may be hard to find the trigger. the sight of warehouse 12 was pulverized replaced by a large water filled crater the lead judge and the case started baton has been looking into 3 possible theories. the 1st is a mistake in the welding process during repair work that was being done to the warehouse. the 2nd is an intentional fire. some have suggested there might have been an attempt to hide evidence of theft. and the 3rd theory is that the explosion was caused by a targeted air rocket attack. this was later downplayed following a report by french investigators. in the days and hours before the blast was pear work was being done on warehouse 12. they were the 1st of their kind to secure the facility. since the ammonium nitrate was confiscated from amal dove and flagged cargo ship and stored there in 2014 lebanon's chief prosecutor on our debt gave the order after state security want about possible theft, not the potentially explosive materials stored there. this photo purportedly shows the syrian laborers who were doing the work, but they don't appear to be taking any precautions with the materials inside days after the port explosion, they were detained along with the owner of the contracting company. there's still no proof. they had a role in starting the fire and our beliefs to have less support in our before. but they're still being held without charge documented surface showing that throughout the years. top officials, politicians, civil servants, military and security officers knew about the dangerous chemicals and did nothing about it. i now me, braxton, the head of the manifest department that support was among those who warned about the potential for disaster. his wife or roar, says mammy has documents that show bracks began warning about the ammonium nitrate in 2014, after learning it was being stored in warehouse 12 and the cache inside. out at the oberlin beyond what i want to take it out of archie and to show our center about tosh. you know, the, what the target at the now, i mean i don't have the lumber seem. i would want to have your name, but the coffee there for my wife wants to have it to stay my with dish. don't. how do you live in charge? how? sorry. what was that? how do i modify the ellen and the whole food didn't have to be month to month fee, but my thought and that to so i pick up my number $4.00 on the, on the, on the can kid was. but so what are says, her husband feel compelled to go above his authority to raise the alarm bell. she says he's now paying the price for speaking up. now, me brooks is being held without charge, along with other ports and customs employees and security officers. and i may, but so it has that, or i'll because put the other side mostly on hand who come on the mckenzie. i'm with dr. mon heck, i've been heck, my fiance about adobe. i found with dash 9 to cut the fellow here to whom i know i suddenly my love leisure, his eminent danny. now the cup the seller have to sell them. and my la fleur joseph in the day and who will be on the dollar. a low national mom, but a dollar and casual medic, but to keep it a dollar can come and dollar weeks before the explosion. the now caretaker, prime minister has done did. and the incumbent president michelle and acknowledge received a letter from state security warning about the presence of ammonium nitrate. they said they referred the case to the relevant authorities. the state security report dated july $22020.00, says there was negligence on the part of the port authorities and various pages instructions in securing the warehouse so that the ammonium nitrate will be stolen or catch fire. it also mentions the 2016 correspondence between the army command and the customs director. it in which the arm command suggested offering the ammonium nitrate to a local explosives company or sending it back to the country of origin. it was signed by the commander at the time. john was she who is among a number of suspects who could face criminal charges. unfortunately, the army did not take any measures, not in and containing them and not taking any measures. you know, re exporting them. that's below the $137.00 munition loss that states that the, the, for the, the army is responsible for them. i assure sophie dean is a lawyer who specializes in export compliance. he has analyzed scores of documents and explains why he believes the shipment was not legal from the start. these are slows as all the nitrate ammonium. they need a lot of administrative process before thinking of importing them. there's a process by law that should be done before entering them. and what's included in this process is the responsibility of the army, the liberties army that's included in this process. so when they entered, they did not get the approval of the army. they just, you know, adjust, took a decision and unloaded the product inside lebanon to find out how the ammonium nitrate ended up inside warehouse 12. a team of investigative journalists have been digging deeper into its origins. what they discovered is that the shipment involved a network of shadow actors who they say use secretive companies and took advantage of lack government oversight. and the weaknesses in the maritime shipping industry discovered that this company was, was it, it just that in an added ok. that usually is used to just the companies that act, that

u. s. u. k, or certainly other 5 ice nations. why even i can follow up. i'm just some guy that i can follow up on a, c, g, t, n, piece in english, and think for myself as kind of millions of others. hence, this latest distraction with team player found she in order to shift narratives. i mean, who writes these scripts for the press to that and we're cite some neo con hacks with heidegger fetishes who never finished film school. i me, interesting. and in my introduction, i gave all of the, the, the ridiculous fiasco, you know, these people, it was orchestrated where people that are not very bright. ok, it's that is obviously that's why they fall apart. and these and these new quote, new stories are for other news people to believe ok would say all this kind of nod their head ok like seals and clapping here. you know, bit john, you know, my, i want to make it clear to everyone here. i want to know what happened. ok. i'm not interested in blaming or punitive anything. i'm not interested in. i want to know what happened. so we don't go through it again becaus

u. s. u. k. japan, and sing a poll. well, we could have 2 hurricanes form in the days ahead. jeff, tracking our world, whether updates high, there are a lot of ground to cover, get you up to speed with some tropical trouble that we're tracking. so 1st step toward the mexico's pacific coast, we've got this disturbance throwing what, whether it's worth acapulco, let's press play. see where it goes. this could strengthen into a hurricane as it eyes the baja peninsula. of course, a popular tourist destination there of cobbler san lucas. next award, the caribbean sea. and we have seen cascading brain for jamaica with this disturbance going to clip western cuba. it looks to gain strength through those warm waters of the gulf of mexico. this model wants to put it taking aim at the u. s. state of louisiana, which is not good news when you consider places like new orleans low lines. so this will have a big impact. south america, rain still falling, cross the venezuelan lp's, where we have seen some deadly landslides, as of late for their toward the south. this cold front punching across bolivia, uruguay into southeastern portions of brazil. it's really knocked down temperatures . so paulo at 19 degrees, poor air quality cross 7 us states where there are weather alerts in play and then we're talking about the heat in phoenix that 44 degrees. meantime in canada, the heat has broken for the great lakes toronto a high of 24 degrees on friday, enjoy season. thanks jeff. we'll still have here all the news, israel's prime minister in the us hoping to.

u. s. u. k. and canadian forces all heading for cobbled in some shape or form. charlotte, us forces also been deployed to cattle and q weights as far as those extern allied forces are concerned, the shaping up to look like something that might be spawn as a failure for them. i mean, the united states to spend $800800000000.00 since 1996. yes, perhaps i think they've been asking, they've been dealing with that question for a long time now. especially from afghans who was saying, what was all this for. and there's a growing panic in calvo, a lot of international journalists and g o. as a rule, leaving the number of people i talked to who are getting on the next slide out. there is a lot of uncertainty at this point to the americans coming back a lot of ask and saying, are they going to come back to defend us when in fact, nor be coming back with minimal forces to protect their own embassy and then get out again shot it, thanks very much on joining us live from cobble well the case as it could return to afghanistan. if al qaeda is allowed to flourish again and threaten the west. the defense secretary, ben wallace, till british media afghanistan is at risk of becoming a failed state. and they tell about to have a message from last time. you start hosting al qaeda, you sell packing the west or countries of that. we could be back. let me think of natalie does, is underway on afghanistan and her simmons is falling developments on that aspect from london talking logistics really about getting evacuations organized promptly and reducing staff numbers of western embassies. and indeed, changing the location of west notices that are in the capital, kabul, because of security concerns. and everyone saying that there's no panic over this, but there are red lights flashing not only in diplomatic circles, but military ones as well. there are extra $3000.00 us troops going in most of those have arrived now. britain is sending another $600.00 troops into organize the the, the civilians of u. k. possible holders, evacuations that also africa and the civilians who are part of the a british military operation. now they're reducing the number of stuff in the u. k embassy. and they're moving it to an undisclosed location out of the area in right now, which is a secure, high security area anyway. but there is a lot of alarm about this. there is no doubt and a major operation going on. now to get out all the afghan has another signal to, to turn about making advances that really surprised military strategists in the west pace of it. and they are making a strident moves. it would seem not in any way put off by any frets of further action from the forces before they leave. and there is definitely a situation now where the, the big word in military circles is get out. the un is calling for an immediate end to a new wave of violence. in serious southwestern city of drop, thousands of civilians fled heavy shilling and ground battles between government forces and rebel forces. the sp

u. s. u k. governments and botching the withdrawal. we spoke to the mother full and british soldier. she'll binnie he was killed in a 5 fight would tell about militants in may. 2009. he was just 22 years old. his mother jeanette spin, he told us about the emotions that she has been feeling since sunday was i'm very angry. able to do that that they've been able to come in and do what they have been able to do. a lot of people are asking, you know, was it worse? i question not. and since sunday i haven't really slept joyful in don't think any of the mums and families that have lost loved ones. they have really been able to comprehend best. i know that when my son was told he was killed save, and women and children and the men that he was mentioned at a time along with his own una. and i will be for effort grateful to him. and so cranked that at the end of the d, his life was given to try meet as country back to start the child from being able to rule the naval to cause head or anyway as well enough down. and then 24 hours. they have just walked in and took over. it's just ludicrous to me, need to explain why the fight is true so rapidly between the key and america beneath. explain why this is that, i mean i would like an inquiry into why that happened like us women are among the most threatened groups in taliban control. the chemist on the take of a st. hudson cobble showing women's faces have been painted over some local say that women are practically disappeared from the streets with only a very small number. daring to come out or to say that she'll injure unless stranded in cobble says that he hasn't seen a single woman in his hotel since the taliban took control of human looking. i live in the hotel and capital citizens and stuff because i can't leave the premises. the 1st thing i witness doctor riding and capital was a horrendous terror attack in the defense ministry. that was the sign of things to come. the attack was terrible. soldiers, taliban fighters that were all blown to pieces, locals have been watching. recent events with horror. these are dark days. tragedy that's causing a tremendous upheaval in society. don't forget that the taliban is talking about the inevitable creation of an emerald of galveston. what does that mean? it means the regime that's more religious than political on top of the religious measures bell introduce more violent ones. and these are the worst for women which make up of the half of the population. so have no basic rights, no freedom of expression, they will be covered from head to toe with just little slits for the eyes. women of very bad are frightened by what could be in store for them. they will effectively be turned into slaves. many of them are leading figures activists, many in sports music, different types of activities. i've been told, for example, about a female pianist spend 20 years studying to realize the dream of attending the conservatory the taliban and told her no, you won't play anymore. the end of her passion. so one time to life, that's what i've been told, and that's a drama. countries are busy getting the nationals out of afghanistan, russia, among them. december st. cobble estimates are up to a 100 russians in the country. most guesses and taliban has guaranteed the safety of all russian planes. this is also indicated it's ready to lift african refugees to any 3rd country willing to accept them in russia's top diplomatic school for inclusive dialogue, enough chemist on if you thought sick when the whole of afghan install was engulfed in a civil war, we advocated the need for an urgent transition to dialogue with the participation of all the opposing african forces. and now when the taliban have in fact taken power a couple, we are in favor of a nationwide dialogue that will allow the formation of a representative government, which will then work out agreement on the final settlement, the country with the support of the afghan people. the hasty withdrawal, the 4th is seen a significant amount of us and nato weapons and equipment and up in taliban. hans is footage recently emerged online from cobb showing and abandoned headquarters of the international charity assistance for the natal admission. the, as you can see, stuff seemingly smashed can pieces, leaving them in pieces on the floor. they were apparently destroyed to prevent sensitive data getting into the wrong hands. in while in a recent interview with a b c, news us president joe barton and mentioned he knew that because of kenneth, but said it was unavoidable. i don't think it could have been handled in a way that there we were going to go back. in hindsight, look, but the idea that somehow there's a way to have gotten out without chaos and suing. i don't know how that happens with decision seems to cost by the home is approval rating said in all time low and i'm open, explains the chaotic scenes and cobble have certainly not been good for the white house. the approval rating of joe biden has now dropped to less than half only 46 percent of americans say they liked the jobs that the new president is doing. now. the events in afghanistan have certainly been a factor because prior to them he was at 53 percent. so a 7 percent drop seems you have resulted. some polls are now showing that joe biden handling of afghanistan is less popular than george w bush's handling of afghanistan. and we now have a situation where a senator bob menendez, representing the u. s. foreign relations committee of the senate. he's coming forward with this statement. the events of recent days have been the combination of a series of mistakes made by republican and democratic administrations over the past 20 years, including the trumpet, ministrations, flawed negotiations with the taliban, and the biden administration's flawed execution of the us withdraw. the committee will seek a full accounting for these shortcomings. now, republicans are being far less forgiving. they say that jo biden's decision to rapidly pull out of afghanistan is harming the united states, discrediting the country, hurting relations with allies. there's been a fire storm of anger from the republican side of the aisle. this by the administration said they plan for every scenario. they told us to day prior that coble. ready cobble was not imminent, he told us less than a month before that this would never happen yesterday. hope president biden would accept responsibility and explain how he

u. s. u k. a so quick to blame around and all of this given how little is known about it or is it just stuff so we're not gonna be party to but i think it may be testing out the new president of iran who takes off his for me tomorrow is obviously a 100 liner and i think maybe the western governments are trying to say, if you're going to sort of escalate the between iran and the west, we can do the same on the side. so i think it may be more like a sort of political wanting shot costs about him or you see before he takes office tomorrow, tara said that the allegations of faces are an excuse to justify hostile action against it. how. how would you think it wrong? should be by anything like that? well, there's been a shudder war going on between neurologist, particularly in the, in the mediterranean undergrad. see in the gulf for about 2 years. the wall street journal earlier this year in march revealed to this story to do at least 12 vessels. un investor has been targeted by israeli attacks since the end of 2019. and the iranians obviously entitled him to see their reason for retaliating, to some extent in kind. so there is a shudder warranty. so rather dangerous moment, it's not escalating into full local law. so we can relax a little bit because there is concern that the company that owns this tanka had one of the ships hijacked by around 2 years ago. does that lead any weight to the claims that it could have been around again? well it, it could be, but i mean, the random confirms that they detect is not attacked already taken over the ship 2 years ago because of alleged fuel smuggling. and they held it for 2 or 3 days and then released it. they haven't confirmed it on this occasion. as you pointed out at the beginning, they've denied it. so there's no reason to see any parallels between the 2 systems . between the 2 incidents, hundreds iran ratings versus confirm it. with those very public suspicions being ad, do you think it could have a negative impact on the rounds of talks that had taken place to try and revive the iraq nuclear deal? when i get into health status in the disappointing thing has been the c 5 ministration has really continued to trumps policy on so many aspects of foreign u. s. foreign policy. and iran is one example. the maximum pressure of sanctions, very hard sanctions, which the trump people put on a student operation by dividing ministration. and these talks going very slowly to try and revise the j c p or the nuclear deal. so i think we need more flexibility from bible people on this. we're going to just have a permanent cold war with their own. this is a constant, extremely dangerous stretch of water as well, isn't it has been for decades and those dangers come from many and varied places. to what extent do you think it just gets a bit to leverage by certain interested parties when these things? well, they just like the front line between iran and the states supported by the rest. and they're very suspicious the wrong and is scared of homers around the nor, and since or time, because of often been years to started as a fair seizing and stopping and searching the wall through some kind of attack. usually by mine's limpid minds, which commanders att

u. s. u k are continuing to airlift people out, but several other countries have stopped their evacuations early. a headache for social media giants will be college and embrace is twitter. while the former us president is bad. ah, it's just gone past 2300 hours gmc, that's 3 30 am in the afternoon capital that witness to explosions on thursday. the west president is threatening to strike back in response to the attacks outside cobbles, international airport. as many as 60 people, including 12 american military personnel have been killed. now the armed group, i so has claimed responsibility for the attacks. joe biden called the u. s. service personnel killed and he attacked heroes. and vowed to make those responsible pay bite and said his os, his military commanders, to draw plans to strike back at the group we will not be deterred by cherished will not let them stop our mission. we will continue the evacuation of also or to my commander, develop operational plans. a strike case is k assets, leadership and facilities. we will respond with force of precision at our time at the place we choose in a moment of our choosing. here's what you need to know. these isis tears will not win. we will rescue the americans. we will get our afghan allies and our mission will go on. now the taliban has condemned the attacks earlier, the group spokesman told al jazeera, the area in which the attack happened, falls under the responsibility of the foreign forces. there's this attack, but then there's also the situation around the airport. the gatherings of tens of thousands of people around couple airports is a suitable location
