u. s. jet and the pentagon says is preparing to accept 22000 asylum seekers. u. s embassy in cobbles, also been evacuated with stuff fleeing in a helicopter to the airport, fled to comparisons being made on line to a similar evacuation. it was 50 years ago during the war in vietnam, washington noticed that there are no parallels to events in saigon. let's take a step back. this is manifestly not saigon. we're working to make sure that our personnel are safe and secure. we're relocating the men and women of our embassy to a location at the airport. it's why the president sent in a number of forces to make sure that as we continue to draw down our diplomatic presence, we do it in a safe and orderly fashion. we discussed the ongoing situation that with former u. s. navy intelligence officer steven rogers and says he can help with parallel with what happened in vietnam. the goal was to ensure that the app in government was strong, that it was a nation where the people were free. it was a nation, ruled by a constitution and not ruled by any dictator or a terrorist orga

u. s forces from afghanistan the pentagon says they can evacuate americans and afghan partners by then fox news madeline rivera tells us the white house fears that an extension of the deadline could put u. s troops at risk. we will continue to close our close cooperation to get people out as efficiently and safely as possible as president biden insists the u s. is on track to pull americans and vulnerable afghans out of afghanistan by august 31st many on capitol hill are skeptical there's no way and seven days we can remove all american citizens. much less our afghan partners the president cited threats outside of the airport in kabul primarily from an isis affiliate in the country as the main reason to stick with the end of the month deadline. some critics, however argue the president's decision creates more future security risks all of those terrorist organizations which want to attack the united states now have an entire country is a sanctuary thanks to this withdrawal that we've seen president biden order several democrats pushed back on the president's exit day to saying the taliban s

u. s. a ministration, how us officials describing this situation? well, the pentagon has said that there are now a 3000 u. s. military personnel dispatched to afghanistan to basically over see what it's calling the draw down of us personnel in the country in order to make sure that u. s. embassy staff are able to leave the country safely, the military is being sent in. now people watching the situation will note that we have now seen the taliban surging ahead, seizing several provinces, and just one day they are inching closer to cobble the country's capital. but as joe biden made clear on tuesday, washington does not intend to come to cobbles rescue, take a listen. that was what african leaders have to come together. we lost thousands at last death and injury. thousands of american personnel got to fight for themselves. now the current taliban offensive began back in april when joe biden announced that he intended to withdraw all us forces from the country by september 11th. now that gave question gave rise to 2 questions. at this point. you know, what is really goin

u. s. department of defense from the pentagon. here's how he responded. does this mean the u. s. military withdrawl is not going to be complete by august 31st. again. what i said was, we're aiming to facilitate the reduction of the civilian personnel by august 31st. so it's all lining up on the same timeline. i won't speculate about what the footprints gonna look like post to august 31st because there's this additional mission set of, of helping process special immigrants. so we're just going to have to wait and see, but the drop down itself is still on track to be complete by august 31st. that makes no sense, john, i know i know what your troops and i know what you're saying, lucas. i'm saying of the of the original footprint plans that still continuing, but yes, we are adding additional troops for this specific and narrow focus and we're hoping to get them all out by the end of the month. i'm not going to speculate beyond august 31st. now it's important to note the united states has maintained a military presence in afghanistan for over 18 years. and during the time the unite

u. s. and nato forces, the african military couldn't fight and certainly didn't want to fight because of the psychological blow of the u. s. pulling out which i think, even in the pentagon, they had not really expected. president biden to follow through all. and i think the u. s. also were looking at a map of afghanistan, which had provinces. districts on it. the taliban looked at a map of that had the tribal divisions, and i've got to start on it and they managed to work those tribes. they managed to find the right power brokers so that they were able to take province of the province. and in many cases, there wasn't much of a fight. of course, at the provincial capital that valid taliban also took control of every major border crossing in the country. the last to be seized was the crossing toward come one of the largest gateways between afghanistan and pakistan. come all hide reports on that now from islam of eyes, hitch rated at the end of the hive of bars. down of tor come the border and i did the dream li, crucial. however, budget on her clothes that border because of go over restriction now dated backlog on both sides where door that there was no fighting or the si

u. s. from and the u. k. charlie angela there with all the latest reaction from your 4th from london. thank you, charlie. well, meanwhile, as we've been saying, the pentagon spokesman and the u. s. has twisted, we can confirm that the explosion at the abbey gate was the result of a complex attack that resulted in the number of u. s. and civilian casualties. we can also confirm at least one other explosion at or near the baron hotel. a short distance from abbey gate will continue to update, and we've now also had reaction to this attack in kabul from nato secretary general installs. and back you will see tweeted and said, i strongly condemn the heretic terrorist attack outside couple airport. my thought so with all those effected on their loved ones, priority remains to evacuate as many people to safety as quickly as possible. well, speaking of evacuation that speak to charlotte bellis in cobble, she's been spending a lot of time outside to couple airport. charlotte, glad to see that you are safe. can you talk us through what the situation looks like? they're on the ground now at the airport? well, we left there about an hour ago now, but way initially it

u. s. and its partners, ships video to show the former nato bass. there is the pentagon and rushes to retreat. u. s. president doesn't see the evacuation now relies on taliban cooperation for completion. bargains. 31st depends upon the tale bond. continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport for those who are trans, we're transporting out no disruption to our operation. in addition, i've asked the pentagon and the state department for contingency plans to adjust the time table should that become necessary? let me remind you that the deadline for the american withdrawal is the 31st of august. i can very my message again to the americans to evacuate all its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have planes, they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops. and those people who are linked to for this, despite the withdrawal being well underway, prominent us politicians, am retired generals on demanding that troops should remain. but it seems the mainstream outlets these people are being heard on. or ignoring the fact that some have ves

now the pentagon press secretary is maintaining the u. s. is focused on completing evacuations from i've gone this time by the end of the month. in the past 24 hours alone, over 10000 people have been lifted from campbell airport. we are well aware of, of, of the stated desire to buy the taliban to have this mission completed by the 31st of august. i would tell you that we 2 are still planning on completing it by the 31st of august. that is the mission that women signed by the commander in chief assigned to us, and that's what we're trying to execute. the thought of on says it will not extend the deadline for western forces to leave afghanistan. us president joe biden is under pressure to keep american troops on the ground beyond august the 31st to continue evacuations. the world health organization says 500 tons of medical supplies for afghan. the stan stuck in the u. a. e, because of the situation not cobble at port, it says critical supplies will run out in 10 days. the pentagon will require all 1400000 members of the us military to be va

u. s. and his partners. this video does show a form and nato bass. there is the pentagon rushes to retreat. the u. s. president also says that america is on track to finish its mission. enough can a stand by the end of this month, the top us diplomatic way, but just say the different options are currently being discussed. the tall about have made clear that they have a strong interest in having a functioning airport. we and the rest of the intricate national community certainly have a strong interest in that. primarily for the purpose of making sure that anyone who wants to leave can leave pass the the 31st. and again, with regard to our own potential presence going forward after the 31st. we're looking at a number of options. let me remind you that the deadline for the american withdrawal is the 31st of august. i can very my message again to the americans to evacuate all its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have plains, they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops, and those people who are linked to foreigners. despite the patrol being well under way, prominen

u . s. and nato forces, the african military couldn't fight and certainly didn't want to fight because of the psychological blow of the u. s. pulling out which i think, even in the pentagon, they had not really expected president biden, to follow through all. and i think the u. s. also looking at a map of afghanistan, which had provinces, districts on it, the taliban looked at a map of that had the tribal divisions and i've got to start on it. and they managed to work those tribes. they managed to find the right power brokers so that they were able to take province off the province. and in many cases there wasn't much of a fight. james base out of sematic addison going to be much more on developments in afghanistan after a quick break. do stay with us, you're watching al jazeera ah, on counting the cost europe pete fun to fight terrorism and counter china and russia in africa with activists say they'll provide weapons to big cases and the climate emergency costing millions, placing millions, counting the cost. well now just in our coverage of africa is what i'm most proud of. every time i travel there, whether it be still west africa, people stop me and tell me how much
