Us Quiz Show . After the departure of the Executive Producer, over allegations of past offensive comments. And 007 is back the final trailerfor the much delayed James Bond Film � no time to die� is on release ahead of the world premiere. President biden has delivered a strident defence of the us Evacuation Mission from afghanistan labelling it an extraordinary success. The president struck a defiant tone, in his televised address from the white house, the day after americas 20 Year Presence in the country came to an end. He described the operation to fly more than 120 Thousand people out of kabul in recent weeks as one of the biggest airlifts in history. And said the decision to leave now was on the unanimous recommendation of all his advisers. We succeeded in what we set out to do in afghanistan over a decade ago and we stayed for another decade. It was time to end This war. This is a new world. The Terror Threat has metastasised across the world. We were left with the world. We were left with the decision. Eitherfollow through and leave Afghanistan Oursay through and leave afghanistan our say we were not leaving and commit another tens of thousands more troops going back to war. That was the choice, the real choice. In kabul the taliban have been making the most of their first day in full control of afghanistan an � enjoyable moment of victory� , according to its leaders. Their fighters have been showing off some of the equipment and weapons left behind by us forces, while pointing out that they now control more of afghanistan than they did 20 years ago. Our chief international correspondent lyse doucet, and cameraman robbie wright, sent This report from kabul. American uniforms, american guns, but these are taliban special forces. Badri unit 313. They are in charge at kabul airport. Translation our message i to the americans is they should not have any plans to attack muslims again. Our message to all afghans is we are going to protect them. Surreal to enter what was a us hub. Whiteboards from a moment in time just days before kabul fell, when us soldiers plotted an orderly pull out. This is what they left behind. Hangers are full of helicopters. All disabled, destroyed, so the taliban cannot use them. The best of american military hardware, the best of its generals, were part of its longest war. And now it has ended in the worst of ways, and it will live long in memory, here in afghanistan, in america, and far beyond. Today, an airfield flooded with fighters. Their first urgent task, repairing the runways so commercial airlines can fly again. Translation as you can see, these infidels destroyed the entire airport. They havent left any machinery in good repair. We had a team ready to fix This mess ever since we came to kabul. Now that the americans have left we are ready to clean it up. All flights have stopped, but afghans still keep trying to get in, to find a way out of This country. Taliban guards turn them away. The last us flight lifted off last night, and the skies exploded with taliban celebration, after the last american soldier, major general chris donahue, was on his way home. When we drive through the streets of kabul, the city seems much the same, until we get to the banks. To the queues stretching all the way down the street. Most banks are shut, most dont have any money. A some people have stood here for days wondering if they can withstand This for long. I should build a future, i should study. So definitely if the situations are like that, you should stay for one weekjust to take 10,000 afghani. 100 from the bank, so its not possible to live here. A country turned upside down and inside out. An old order suddenly ripped away, a new one suddenly started, in chaos and uncertainty. Lyse doucet, Bbc News, kabul. The uk is in talks with the taliban to secure a way out of afghanistan for british nationals and eligible afghans still in the country. The talks are taking place in doha and come after the militant group pledged to allow departures to continue after the Evacuation Effort ended. Its thought up to 250 people plus their families remain in afghanistan. Let s get some of the days other news.

Brazilian researchers have found that Snake Venom could be used as a tool in the fight against coronavirus after early testing in animals has shown that a molecule in the venom of a deadly south american Pit Viper could inhibit the reproduction of covid cells. Sophia Tran Thomson has This report. The Pit Viper is one of the deadliest snakes in south america. The viper� s than has enough potency to kill 16 people but the dangerous snake could potentially help scientists develop a drug to combat coronavirus. Researchers have found that the Molecule Peptide produced by the viper inhibited the virus� s ability to multiply in the cells of monkeys by 75 . Translation we were able to see that it not only inhibited the development inside the cell but were also able to see that it was able to inhibit one of the proteins that is very important for the development of the Virus And Propagation of new viruses.

It is not the venom itself they will cure coronavirus. Venom itself they will cure coronavirus. They will next test the coronavirus. They will next test the efficiency coronavirus.
