Newsday

Faced with a barrage of criticism, Joe Biden defends the airlift from Kabul as an "extraordinary success" and said it should have been done earlier. We head to Italy where protests against vaccine passports will start in a few hours time. And we have the final thoughts of our Moscow correspondent as she is expelled from the country on national security grounds.
