the embassy. so british nationals to register with the embassy. 50 therefore it isn t possible for us to give an accurate figure. the uk s travel advice as now for some years made it clear that we advise against all travel to any part of russia and we also make it clear that unless your presence in russia is essential, then you should consider leaving by commercial routes. the house should recognise that because of the situation in russia, because of the conflict, the ability of the uk to conduct an extraction operation as we did in sudan would be severely limited probably to the point of impossibility, sol limited probably to the point of impossibility, so i will reiterate our travel advice that british nationals should seek to leave the country, should consider leaving the country, should consider leaving the country by commercial routes unless their presence is absolutely essential. and on herfinal point, of course what we have seen in terms of course what we have seen in terms of t

afghan women going out on the streets holding placards saying women s rights must be defended and today in the city of jalalabad, some afghans went out and they were carrying the old afghan flag, the multi-colored afghan flag saying that s their flag, the national flag and not the taliban flag. according to witnesses, taliban opened fire and killed at least three of them. so far on this base today things seem to be moving more smoothly. richard engel with the situation on the ground in kabul and general mccaffrey, i ll go right to you picking up from what we heard from richard that the taliban leaders seem to be saying all of the right things rid now, but in less than two weeks, this air light of and extraction operation is supposed to be over. i guess my question is is this over when we decide it s over or when the taliban decides it s over and do we have the military and logistics capacity to get everyone we need to get out before that happens?
