we've been making. we've been building, we've been constructing on river banks. the river shoulders basically just obstructing the natural flow of water. and more and nature will win in the end, and that's what's happening. so the kind of destruction that we're experiencing is part and parcel because of poorer development planning because of permits to build in areas or in that are sensitive to flight. there's been a lot of bombing on flood plains that shouldn't have been there to begin with. and then other reasons for the impact of these kind of slides. i of course, governance challenge is a constant sort of strife between the center that this law and brought in say isn't who's going to be responsible? and a lot of sort of the it seems like there's a lot of government departments to keep shifting burden to other government loans and for short responsibility. i think that has done a lot to hom, enjoy relief effort. and in better end for the preparation of flood. and that said, the political instability over the last couple of months in buckets on has definitely d

why hasn't this been done? sara: why hasn't flood relief been done or sustainable planning?ob: well, both. the situation is to some extent not new despite the fact this is on an unprecedented scale. one would imagine some effort would have been made to bring in the methods she is talking about, yet she seems to suggest it is taking something like this to put the thought into people's heads. sara: what she was suggesting is that pakistan needs to constantly sort of prepare for and adapt to climate change, something we are doing to the best of our abilities. but at this point i think now that push has come to shove i must say out loud, we are not really responsible for climate change. pakistan is not. we are just on the receiving end of its impacts. which is why these floods are feeling so personal to us. we contribute less than 0.8% to global greenhouse gas emissions. that is literally negligible. and yet look what is happening. we have lost more than 1000 lives since june, 33 million people are affected. people are sleeping outside in the open. houses, livelihoods, livestock

now for the past few years, these exercises have not been held here on such a scale impala that been because of the pandemic. but largely it has been because there has been a liberal administration here that's trying to be pursuing dialogue with north korea. and this was thought to get in the way of that, but there is now a conservative administration here president june. so girl telling cabinet members monday that he wants to see security in south korea returning to a state of being water tight as he described it. that the only way you can guarantee preparedness and readiness is to hold the kind of exercises on the scale of a full blown conflict. hence the, these exercises being held, involving literally thousands of units. i'm personnel, both military and civilian. the governor of the state of indiana has held talks with the president to taiwan amid height intentions with china. eric holcombe is ledia 3rd american delegation to visit type pay this month. us house because nancy pelosi and a congressional delegation also visited the island. so that in good bay jing, which considers t

there's been cache all around the area. and of course, there's the risk that that's involved. russia have said that to russia has said that they will not demilitarize the area that there were forces won't be forced back and they all that. but there's also been discussion about how they could reach that area where their international experts would be able to walk into the area interested in financing. it was very clear. he also said that b, i a, a secretary has assessed that ukraine has the logistics insecurity to support a mission through step where we show russia headset in the past that that was impossible that it was to danger as well. ukrainian government is now saying that that's possible and that's what apparently it seems the united nations secretary general is calling for and seems to support. there is a thank you for that within 2 across now to wrestle says he's alive for us in istanbul. so or so, what does turkey hope to gain from this thing? well, it is a lot to stay full for turkey. so turkey has been adopting o

i bribes, you've been corrupt. i've been caught up. i did just what is it and see al jazeera investigations, the oligarchs. this is a year after the taliban took over special coverage of the current situation in afghanistan. the listening post examines and dissects the wealth media, how they operate, the stories they cover up to 5 years on the since me, on mars, muslim minority were forced from the country. we look at the play of the rocking. i'll just say we're well show cases. the best documentary from across the network, including a new 3 part series, the sixty's in the arab world. as protest continue following the swearing in the new president could sri lanka, economic and political crisis lead to humanitarian 1 august, which is the era control of the narrative shapes the landscape. that's fairly and point to the policy. read those images front of mind if you want to, very much for the out in the media as well as on the battle for your listening post . dissect the media on al jazeera, who from the ruins of mosul, music as reemerged

their command control has been poor. their logistics has been poor.hat they had all of them at the same time. the invasion's become a slow grinding war of attrition. at times resembling scenes from the first world war — with ukraine's forces dug in and russia using its artillery to try to break through those defences. the effect? there've been heavy casualties, with estimates that tens of thousands of troops on both sides have been killed or injured. ukrainian cities too have been reduced to rubble — this is marioupol. one dynamic which has changed though is the supply of western weapons to ukraine. at first it was small — like these portable anti tank missiles. more recently it's been heavy weaponry — like these us supplied himars rockets — used to hit russian supply lines from a distance. but is it enough to tip the balance in ukraine's favour? i expect this to be a long conflict, and i don't think that there will be decisive action taken this year on either side. so, while there will be counter—attcks and counter offences and one hopes that the ukr

in this past 6 months, thousands of people have been killed and injured. millions have been displaced. this is a memorial fight to remember those who have been killed in this conflict. there's also this book that you can see here where people can come and write their own personal story of loss. we have been coming year steadily all day. remembering those we have lost. it's a big concern because i see the pie says the war has cost extensive damage, especially in southern and eastern ukraine, where the fighting is ongoing. risk of seen all around ukraine as a result of this conflict. a tremendous amount of suffering of physical suffering, of also mental suffering. a population that is traumatized. we see, you know, critical infrastructure damaged or destroyed, including water infrastructure, also health facilities, also educational facilities. some really basic goods are very hard to come by, including food, including water, presidency lens can re, affirmed his call to recover the territories occupied by russia. he walked through the centre of kia, accompanied by british prime minister,

but they have all been transient. it still remains to be seen what the role of afghanistan will be in the world and how the u.s. and other countries will deal with it. host: before he was killed in that recent drone strike, what did the president in kabul will tell us about the taliban and how different the taliban of today is from the taliban of 21 years ago? guest: that was an alarming development. when the taliban was first in power, they gave sanctuary to terrorist organizations like al qaeda. these groups take advantage of the sanctuary of the taliban regime to try and attack other countries outside of afghanistan. many of them were neighboring countries. pakistan, uzbekistan, but most famously the attack on the u.s.. now they are back into power in one of the questions people have is will they give harbor again to international terrorist and what kind of freedom will they allow them. it is clear that there are some international terrorist but unlike the taliban, who say they are trying to change their country in

so how people been survive? think they've essentially been people calling it been under fi. how have they coped with this situation during this conflict? how of a managed to survive so far? to be honest, they cannot give you a clean image on the speak up because we don't know what is the complete picture in the prom because we have no communication to see what's happening. but the information we got so far is that if you see the data and onwards of people, in fact, thousands of people are bank each day. the biggest integral is completely closed because they cannot get in service because that is not a month. that is not a, we are not even people who actually have shaving in their account. they cannot access the account so. so this is a deliberate action by the government so that they can implement site. ready for the fucks, the they don't need to fire any to accomplish their actions. so they said, this is a company we are in the company is this moment. and honestly speaking, we don't know what is clearly have progress so far. we know the problems of suspicion children in room

you say that you've been met with understanding, but there has also been a lot of disillusion and an anger you ran on a campaign the going to elected to produce 1000000 jobs. now in february, this february, you told parliament you created 997423 jobs in the last year. that's very specific number. the year before the, some 600000 jobs were lost. and i know that you will formulate missed that expected 1500000 job losses due to the pandemic. so let me ask you then, so how many jobs have you actually created since the start of your term? and are you satisfied with them? and you're talking about jobs were talking about sources of income that could give someone a livelihood. and because of the damage to year on their make, yes, jobs were lost and many companies were closed. others are just trying to buy. we have also tried to do the best we can to encourage construction industry infrastructure across the country to make sure that people get jobs. our national economic empowerment funds has disbursed the started 7200000000 boucher to various groups in order for them to create jobs. in 62000
