Ah. Hello, welcome to the is our top story us president Joe Biden has warned that another attack by Ice Hill is highly likely in the next 24 to 36 hours. As washington and its allies continue, that scramble to evacuate citizens and afghans deemed risk. And taliban has been bolstering security around cobble applesauce. A thursday, Suicide Bombing, which killed at least 175 people, including children, and 13 us office personnel. The sound of gunfire rang out near the international airport. Earlier on. Witnesses said the taliban was firing to disperse people, gathering now hoping to get on evacuation flights. Crowds outside the airport have reportedly thinned off to an increase in taliban checkpoints near by. The group is now escorting some afghans into the airport. American forces of reportedly given some of that God Posts on the outskirts of the complex to the taliban. While the United States has killed what it describes as to high profile ice. Okay, tom gets in a Drug Strike in afghanistan, and again says one of the groups, pianos, and a facilitator were killed in the strikes in the eastern province of manga har, another i feel k member was injured. The strike comes 2 days after i so claim responsibility for the Suicide Bombing at cobbles at Port President Joe Biden says, the Strike Wont be his last response. When asked about the impact of the strikes, the Pentagon Spokesperson said, the threat from i feel remains high. They have 2 high profile planners or facility 11 plan, one facilitator that are no longer on their muster role. So they have lost some capability to plan and to conduct missions does. But barbara make no mistake. Nobodys writing this off and saying, well, we got them. So we dont have to worry about Isis K anymore. Not the case. As i said earlier, that the Threat Stream is still active, still dynamic. Were still laser focused on that and forced protection. And we are thinking for a minute that what happened yesterday gets us in the clear, not a minute, but do we believe that we hit valid targets . Bad guys who can do bad things and can plan bad missions . Absolutely. And why do we think that that will have some impact on their ability going forward . Absolutely. Thats get worn. All this now from gabriel at his own doe and washington. And any indication gabe, of further action . The us plans on taking to prevent another attack, which they say is likely possibly in the next 24 hours. Yeah, the United States is not releasing any information about any Future Plan of any sort of drone attack or otherwise against i. So, but we can say that Joe Biden did release a statement just with the very recently where he said that this drone attack that killed these 2 i. So k members would not be the last, very clearly insinuating, in no uncertain terms that the u. S. Not only reserves the right to continue attacks against iso, but likely will, according to this statement from president Joe Biden. Also in the statement, he was saying that he said that his Military And Intelligence commanders, as you mentioned, said that the risk of another attack at or around Couple Airport is very high within the next 24 to 36 hours. But biden, in the statement saying that his military commanders on the ground have reassured him that they can maintain security at the airport and still continue with evacuations. Up until the August 31st deadline. So no plans at all either coming from the white house or from the pentagon. Any plans to, to pack up and leave the airport completely, or stop evacuations before august 30. First, at least thats what were hearing right now. We do see get a sense from the pentagon, that there is a, a little bit of a ramp down in terms of the number of troops that are there, excuse me, at the airport. We believe that its about 4000. 00 us troops. And there will be a slow ramp down of those troops at the airport. But bottom line is the message from the white house and the pentagon. We will strike back at isis again at a time Date And Place of our own choosing. And we will continue these evacuations at cup Couple Airport until August 31st, at least thats what theyre saying right now. And as american forces continue to drop down, as you were saying that theyve been handing some of that God Post to the taliban around the airport. Complex, what do we know about the cooperation between us forces in the taliban and securing the area . Well, its interesting question because they have been coordinating the u. S. And the taliban when it comes to security around the airport. But what they have not been coordinating on was that drone strike on friday that killed the 2. I saw k leaders, the u. S. Saying very clearly they did not coordinate with the taliban at all. Did not give details on any heads up or any warning about that. And a child on person, Telephone Member told reuters nuge agency that they simply thought that the u. S. Should have coordinated better or given the taliban a heads up on that. Bottom line is right now, the continuation of the cooperation between the u. S. Military and the taliban continues at and around the airport. But in terms of when the u. S. Will hand over the keys, if you will, to the airport remains to be seen. Probably again, within the next few days as we get closer to that August 31st deadline. Thank you very much, Gabrielle Elizondo with all the latest from washington. So as the threat of another attack remains in place and the evacuation efforts continue, hundreds of afghans have been watching outside banks in combo with a long line for me at cash machines. Protest is outside the new combo bank, concluded many government employees demanding their salaries. They say they havent been paid for at least 3 to 6 months. Banks reopen 3 days ago, but many people were unable to access their money, even when functioning atems of limited cash withdrawals to about 200. 00 every 24 hours. Unless its almost 10 days that ive been waiting here to get my salary. I am an employee of the government. We have a patient at home. We have problems, we cannot take or sell it is out just a few days ago. The banks reopened, but closed again. Give us our salaries so that we can be able to solve problems. We have lots of problems with the banks. We call on the government to reopen the banks. We have lots of problems getting money from a personal account. The situation is like this that people are fleeing, but a lot of money is left in their account. Thanks a blog and cannot provide services out there is rob. Bride has the latest developments now from the afghan capital. A cobble international airport. Its a real sense that were now getting into the End Game of this very long and often chaotic and traumatic evacuation process. The sure sign of that has come with the taliban now taking over some of the guarding duties from the us military. They reduce that perimeter in preparation for their final departure for the final american boots to be off the ground. We have seen that taliban fighters take over, gar, post on the perimeter, and actually inside the airport itself. The imminent end of this evacuation though, has not stopped. Still crowds of people around the perimeter trying to get on some of the last flights you do get a feeling that a lot of people will have given up hope by now. Id have not going back to the airport, especially with warnings of possibly more attacks. For others, though, the eminent ending of this whole process has probably made it added to the desperation of trying to get on one of the last remaining flights. But there are relatively few left now as we see, few flights arriving and taking off. Meanwhile, in the City Of cobble itself, there is a mixed picture here. As the city goes back to work after what for many has been the weekend here in afghanistan. Businesses have likely reopened some ministries have reopened as they did last week, but other ministries have remained close. And crucially for many people here again, the banks are close. The Banking Sector here has been a real problem ever since the fall of the government and the take over by the taliban. They some financial services open to briefly just over a week ago you could the cash machines opened, but with very tight limits, all the amount of money people could take out. Finally, they opened a few days ago, but now they were meant to reopen saturday, but they have remain closed. So people have not been able to get access to their funds, access to salaries. In some cases, people are complaining, they havent been paid for a month. It has led to angry scenes outside many banks, protests and it is a bad, bad sign of for the country and this new taliban government moving forward. Well, since the taliban took control of afghanistan, theres been a political vacuum without a full cabinet being established. So i spoke to obey the law by here a lecture in transitional justice at the American University of afghanistan in combo and asked about efforts in forming a new government. Well, weve heard from a call upon recently with regards to in term appointments for ministries. We heard that the Defense Minister was appointed to someone who was the next Day Detainee off can get more. We also heard that the higher Education Minister was appointed to be along with a few other. Theyre all hardcore pilot bon members. So theyre trying to do that, i think unless they start filling up the Interior Ministry and have police functioning, Police Force in the city, it been very difficult to fill that administrative gap with regard to the economic Gap And Disparity right now. And the crisis people are facing we just heard an informal announcement from the taliban, stating that the central bank of atlanta spawn had sent out letters to private banks to open up. And theyre allowing people to withdraw up to 200. 00 per week. Which is a good start to just to be clear, the government has been since 2001, the countrys largest employee will mentioning security forces theyre, theyre all for teachers and other employees across many departments. What does it mean peoples salaries and livelihoods for their not to be a functioning administrative, political system in the country. We already had the functional government, so i think people are partially used to government not doing their job properly. People salaries were pending even before the fall of the thought upon fall of the collapse of the regime in the were run off couple by the Tyler Bond. So i guess its an anxious time. The telephone have been calling out for people to come back to their offices and do their government duties. There are a few things that are problematic. There are one is the fear that people have of retribution that the other one might dish out if they do come back to offices. On the other end, there is a problem of the actual lack of talent and technocrats within the country. People have left their departments which are all problems that the part of one would really have to step into a Governance Role and deal with. Right . So even if people are given permission to come back to what, how are those 2 important factors going to affect the country, the Brain Drain on the one hand and the uncertainty of reprisals and people even if that theyre being to not wanting to go back to work how much paralysis is not going to cause, look, there has to be serious Trust Building measures from the top to bottom part. Were seeing were hearing reports within provinces where certain elements of the Pilot Bond are exercising their own forms of justice. People are being executed, people are being punished and those are all problems. Theyre reflect on the mindset of the people that are left behind in front of funds. So that paralysis really needs to be addressed. There are certain limitations. The taliban really need to understand that their fighters are battle hardened. They know how to fight a war, people and know how to administer a country. That means policing cannot be done by brute force that really doesnt get much good. P r. And unless they really introduce 3rd party or re called the police categories to come back, there really is a need for uniformed officers that are trained for the job in order to gain Peoples Trust and gave them some level of hope because we are starting from 0 were not getting a great deal of information from beyond the capital, kabul. What are you hearing from residents and in other parts of the country . Governance measures, whereas move in some provinces, there were provinces where within days of their fall to the thought of bon the us government employees to come back. They give them salary structure as they segregated their offices based on gender. And those province in the provinces are doing better than most but then there are other provinces where there isnt any semblance of a system. And there is more of a military approach to containing the population and controlling them that worked really well for them on the battlefield. But that doesnt really work well. When you are trying to govern, you hear reports, you see a friends from different provinces who told you that people who are dragged out of their offices dragged out of their own people who were affiliated with previous governments. People who had to different ideology. And then you have the Mr Report as well. Again, we do understand that thats not Tyler Bond policies central policy because if it were, the numbers would be much higher. But they really need to start addressing these cases if they plan on getting people stressed or french President Emanuel microns has preliminary talks of being held with the taliban in hope of facilitating further evacuations and humanitarian operations. After foreign forces leave the some upon money that we are currently having. Discussions which are very fragile on the preliminary, that is why i am being very comfortable in my answer. But yet the discussions have begun with the taliban on the issues of humanitarian operations. And the ability to protect on reports off guns, water rate, again, it is. And yes, we are working alongside. We gotta, to allow this operations to proceed. Fonts in italy of joined to a number of European Countries that have now completed their evacuation missions. The us says its evacuated at least 117000. 00 people so far. Most of them africa, nationals as well as more than 5000 americans. And the final u. K. Military flight is now departed cobble with all military and diplomatic personnel evacuated, hundreds of afghans eligible to fly to the u. K. Has been left behind. Many barbara has more on the evacuation campaign. Her name is however, even english and shes just entered a world full of hope and uncertainty. Her african parents were evacuated from couple to dubai where they caught a turkish Airlines Flight to the u. K. Helps by the cabin crew, her mom so man had to give birth on board as have arrived, the british military confirmed it was ending its flights carrying civilians. Frances, on the same, shakira and afghan actress living in france, managed to get her Mother And Brother out of afghanistan at the last minute. As in so many cases it involved days of frantic phone calls to people on the ground at the airport. What they do on my end and then never, ive rediscovered the smell of my mother and its something that id forgotten. My mothers tears reminded me of the tea she shed when i left half chemist on. It was really moving a lot of emotions today. Shabbier and afghan journalist filmed himself as he and 9 close relatives waited to get onto one of the final evacuation flights. Hes now in spain, spending the Night And Day and the air force. And the good was one of the worst experiences i have ever had. I never was forced to spend the night with my family and in an open place like that with thousands of people, not in dev last the day. So for fun on shapiro and his family and now seeking asylum. But the british government admits up to 1100 afghans, eligible to be re settled in the u. K. Mainly because they worked with british troops a being left behind. The head of a u. K. Armed forces said its heartbreaking personally, ive probably had over a 100 messages from different afghans who i know in my long association with the country. And many of those friends of mine would make it out there. At this small organization near london, theyre scrambling to help people still trying to get out of out on the stone. Theyre found. As its clear, there are many still in danger. The be government should be needed in order to save the life out of town. As all other people been working for the past 20 supporting they need to mission. As these afghan civilians arrived in rome, a Nato Representative said, his team had done everything they could, unsatisfied because we have left the fuel behind which we are not abandoning. But which we will strive our best to take back home as the sun set on the military evacuations. The question now is, how many more people who fear for their lives will be able to leave afghanistan . And how nadine Baba Al Jazeera or large numbers of afghans are crossing into neighboring pakistan. But only those with pakistani residency, or those who might be traveling some medical treatment to carnie been allowed, and at least 12000 people pass through the chairman, Spin Bolduc crossing fast today, focused on his denial, theres been a significant movement of refugees, its national security advisor, says the country already has more than 3000000 african refugees and cant afford to allow more in some of the job. Aid is need to come on the pockets on african border on buckets on southern borders. Theyve gone to san thousands of people in the last 24 hours. Have tried to cross over their hearing reports that a lot of people from the northern parts of abundance on. Because the cannot enter cosign from the north, are moving towards kandahar trying to cross the Spin Bull the crossing and seek refuge in progress on or take their onward journey from pockets on. You have to bear in mind that it is a lot of people who are coming from provinces as far north as these trying to come to words this Border Crossing and trying to end to focus on many of these people were being told are the has, are as the ethnic minority which has come under attack various on various occasions and theyve gone on much money as already on the other hand, say theyre allowing people to come in. If they have valid paperwork, they can apply for a visa and get a visa from their functional embassy in couple. Besides that, theyre not going to allow people to enter pockets on. Weve been seeing desperate scenes on the border here in the north has been where people are pleading with the box. Any officials with their paperwork trying to come and enter back to san on humanitarian grounds, trying to seek medical help, trying to visit families. Because you have to remember that on both sides of the divide. There are people who have bible and ties. And they say that the deteriorating Security Situation in theyve gone to sun is cause for concern. And many, just want to leave. You went the news, our life from london, more than i had for you.
