From the BBC World Service: As the withdrawal of U.S.-led troops from Afghanistan nears completion, Germany threatens to end financial support if the Taliban gains complete control of the country. Plus, China partially closes one of the world's busiest ports after a worker tests positive for COVID-19. And, South Korea releases the de facto leader of Samsung from jail because the government says he's too important to the economy to keep behind bars.
