US commander warns of worse violence in Afghanistan when American troops leave – BBC News
America’s longest-serving commander in Afghanistan says he expects Taliban violence to get worse, as US-led forces withdraw from the country over the coming months.
President Biden has said that all US troops will leave the country by September 2021, ending a deployment that’s lasted 20 years.
Recent violence has included a bomb attack outside a school in Kabul in which dozens of schoolgirls were killed.
Huw Edwards presents BBC News at Ten reporting from Kabul by chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet.

Rise in babies in care proceedings raises fears of unnecessary adoptions, experts say | BBC News
The number of children involved in care proceedings before they reach their first birthdays is at a persistently high level across England, according to experts who have published new figures.
Data from the universities of Lancaster and Oxford indicates care proceedings for babies have risen by 64% over the past two decades, with one in 118 infants affected. The figures – up to 2024-25 – peaked during Covid, before dropping slightly and plateauing.
While there are cases where it is unsafe for parents to continue contact with their children, experts have told File on 4 Investigates that many babies may not have needed to go into care if support had been in place.
And, since very young children who go into care are more likely to be adopted than older children, there are also concerns from experts that some may have been permanently separated from their birth families unnecessarily.
The BBC understands that new guidance for Family Court judges, to significantly reduce the number of short-notice care hearings – within hours or days of a baby being born – will be announced before the end of the year.

Major bridges in Kyiv have been hit by Russian drone strikes for four consecutive days, as Moscow ramps up attacks on critical infrastructure in Ukraine’s capital.
Two people were injured when the Pivnichnyi (Northern) Bridge was struck on Sunday morning for the second day in a row, while the Pivdennyi (Southern) Bridge was hit multiple times earlier in the week.
The latest attack came as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz made a surprise visit to Kyiv in a show of support against Russia’s continuing full-scale invasion.
Russia’s military said it would be intensifying strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian regions. It earlier said it had hit the two bridges used to transfer Ukrainian troops.

Watching this again I could see the pain and grief more clearly not only in the Afghanistan people but in General Austin Scott Miller I've never really understood war but being a woman I know what hurt is. One thing I've always heard do your best and when you've done that that's all you can do . I believe strongly in God and General Austin Scott Miller did more than his best. You will always be remembered now and in history you are a fine, honest, caring man . I know God will always be with you. You have a big heart.

it is not only a mistake but a huge blunder, USA has unfortunately committed having decided to leave Afghanistan like an orphan. i feel they could wait longer, train Afghanistan army better to fight against terrorists and then leave them. Now it is like finding oneself in the middle of nowhere. it is just shocking.

Your turn rest of the world. These were just kids who were brainwashed into fighting a war thinking they are making a better world. Does no one learn anything from history? Yall remember Vietnam right? Its this cute little country. Maybe the government will start spending our tax money on good things now…I highly doubt it though unfortunately

Scoot you knew what will happen when US troops leave Afghanistan and the Taliban is making chaos and kill the people, so not much different with Mujahidin collaborated with US to kick off the Soviet out of Afghanistan.The war hasn't finished yet after long period of time without success but fail. Should learn from during Vietnam war. And I hope there is no more war again and learn how to make a peace with your enemy even you don't like it. Shalom.

After US withdrew from Vietnam in August 73 the NVA captured Saigon in April 75 thats 20 months. After US withdrew from Iraq in December 2011 Isis deadly took Baghdad in Summer of 2014 thats aprox. 30 months. If Us leave Afghanistan in September 2021, Taliban will reach Kabul around the Summer/Fall 2023. My opinion
