There has been overseas news with the US killing the leader of al Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahiri.
It comes ten years following the killing of the group's founder Osama bin Laden.
Zawahiri helped coordinate the 9/11 attacks and was known as bin Laden’s right hand man.
But now questions are being raised about whether the Taliban gave sanctuary to the al Qaeda leader.
Jason Campbell is the former country director for Afghanistan in the office of Secretary of Defence for Policy and he joined Kate Hawkesby.
