u. k? defense secretary said that it could be up to 1100 afghan national was being left behind who were on those lists as well as up to 150 u. k. citizens. we've had it in the last year. i was confirmed by the ministry of defense that no more purely civilian evacuation flight happening. there was a landing turn around air force base north of london earlier on a few hours ago that was carrying military personnel and it's clean out. but any further flights on saturday will be mainly for military personnel and diplomatic stuff, as well as a few, according to defense sources. a few i've gotten nationals who did actually make it into the put of course so many didn't. there are arguments about how many, but there are also arguments about whether it could have been handled better. will nick carter, general nick carter was saying it's gone as well as it could have in the circumstances. the circumstance is clearly what chaotic and distressing particularly with the attack at cobble airport. but before that,

u. k. defense minister in the last 3 hours, i said that is unlikely and that the u. k. will not be able to do anything. if the u. s. does withdraw on that deadline. the shadow foreign secretary of the opposition labor party here in the u. k. is urging bars, johnson not just to come up with a plan, not just to push president biden on ellis, but for a longer term plan, including to help countries such as pocket stone, which have already received millions of african refugees over the years and expected to receive more in the near future, she says that boris johnson can play a leadership role in trying to get the g 7 nations to try to agree. some sort of assistance plan for the region will fill hail on al jazeera. we'll hear from me guns. he was k television rule. the cell is a new life in the united states that story after the a ah, it's time for the journey with sponsored by capital airways. hello. good to be with you. thanks for tuning in. we have had aggressive rain for is a pacific along the yellow river valley. so young joe, about a month ago, we had a years worth of

u. k. defense actually been wallace with more emotional when he broke down on a local radio station. men and women of our armed forces are risking their lives and doing that. but that is the right thing to do. they bring their lives 20 years. and you know, the very least that obligation has to be is many of the people to the pipeline as possible. but i think i also said it's, it's a really big part of the read to me that some people will get back some people and get back. and we will have to do our best in countries to processes. because this is somewhat surprising, since there is no evidence at all. the evacuation centric cobble airport was even under. despite the chaotic seems that people are desperate to leave. when the commons met on wednesday, the image was stronger, but the ear full of recrimination. they gave their room for our safety and we owe it to them to give out to prevent afghanistan from once again becoming a breeding ground. but terrorism. yeah. because no matter, no matter how grim the nephews of the past, the future is not yet written. can i just bring him back to the s

u. k. defense minister ben wallace on tuesday. describe the chances of getting that extension, a slim saying it was unlikely, but if possible, brittany would be asking the us for that extension. he revealed the 7 over the last 24 hours. the u. k. had lifted more than 2000 people. most of them under something called the african relocation and assistance policy. people who have the right to come and live in britain, but there are thousands more such people. he says, but they will not stop until the us presence that coverage is ended. now on that, we're going to hear from bar is johnson at the end of the virtual meeting, but also from the on the lion, the president of the european commission, shall michelle head of the european council that you represented in the g 7 by germany, france, and italy, of course, and they'll be outlining plans for the you to increase its humanitarian aid for africans in and around afghanistan to the tune of 200000000 euros. they're expected to outline more details after the conference is finished. nadine,

u. k. defense ministry is that they're still trying to establish exactly what has happened, whether or not has it has affected any of the personnel or the ask and they're trying to get out. and i remember there's still a large number of civil servants including the u. k. basset to afghanistan inside the perimeter of the port still processing visa applications, and they have said that they will remain that until the last minute. we know that the threat of these attacks, which the u. k on 4th minister was talking about this morning, has brought forward the evacuation flights and ended the evacuation flight for many countries. the u. s. had warned countries to remove the military and embassy personnel immediately. they said that the situation on the ground was deteriorating rapidly. we've now seen evidence of that, so we know that the last flight for the netherlands, poland, hungary, canada, belgium and denmark have left. they've wraps up their evacuation effort, and denmark has it. and so the dutch government did admit that it probably left some africans eligible for relocation behind. it ju

u. k. defense secretary ben wallace on tuesday, who described the likelihood of an extension for those allots as flame and saying it was on likely, although he did say that the u. k. would like some more time if possible. he said, if there wasn't an extension, then it would not be possible for the u. k. to get everybody out whom they'd like to evacuate from afghanistan. he did say that the u. k with its royal air force planes have taken out around a 1000 individuals over 24 hours. so nothing like the numbers that we've seen, the us military move out, but still a very big effort going on, which they'd like to continue. similarly as you referencing hi, come on, the german foreign minister saying that if everything ends on deadline, that won't be enough time, not just for germany, but for the us to get out all the people that they had hoped to. and so he's calling for a plan with the involving the taliban to continue evacuations. beyond those ellis also, we're hearing that italy, which is a member of the g 7. he's now looking for another summit of the g. 20 industrialized nations to include russ
