At [00:00:38] 2:00 AM, welcome to this news live broadcast [00:00:41] . The State Council Information Office held a series of [00:00:45] 15 themed news conferences on the 13th. The relevant [00:00:49] 负责人 of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment introduced the comprehensive promotion of the beautiful China construction [00:00:52] . [00:00:53] related situation [00:00:59] The average PM2.5 reached 1.8 micrograms per cubic meter, a 6.2% increase year-on-year, and a 3.9% increase in the proportion. [00:01:15] The proportion of Class I and III surface water reached 86.5%, an increase of 2.4%. [00:01:23] The Yangtze and Yellow Rivers continued to maintain Class II. [00:01:26] The ecological environment department promoted the investigation of more than 6,000 cases . [00:02:02] The PM2.5 level should be below 27 micrograms per cubic meter, and the proportion of high-quality water bodies should reach 85%. [00:02:11] Completed 80,000 improvements in rural human environment. [00:02:16] At the same time, we will increase the treatment of about 200 cities and towns, and the diversity, stability, and sustainability of cities will be significantly improved. [00:02:57] This is also the first 10-million-ton crude oil pipeline to be put into operation during China's 15th Five-Year Plan. [00:03:01] It is of great significance for optimizing the functional structure of China's central and eastern regions and improving the nationwide [00:03:05] network layout of games. On the 13th, the main bridge of [00:03:08] Shiziyang Channel, Shiziyang Bridge, completed its main construction [00:03:12] , and the scale of the main cable set broke the world record for similar [00:03:16] projects. The cable set is one of the key stress components of the suspension bridge, [00:03:20] bearing the huge tension transmitted by the main cables of the bridge. The Shiziyang Channel connects [00:03:24] the three major metropolitan areas of the Greater Bay Area , and is expected to be completed and [00:03:27] open to traffic in 2029. Reporter from the Yangtze River Three Gorges. [00:04:13] In the Pinglu Canal and the Qi Shushu cattle, for the first time, a single- [00:04:17] line, two-way ship lock test was conducted. The focus was on testing the safety of [00:04:21] ships berthing inside and outside the lock and passing through the lock. This is also the most critical [00:04:25] link in the Pinglu Canal and the ship lock test process [00:04:28] . [00:04:31] At 10:30 AM, two cargo ships, one 3,000-ton class and one 5,000-ton [00:04:34] class, participating in the test, slowly sailed towards the [00:04:38] Qi Shushu II lock of the Pinglu Canal . During the ship lock process, [00:04:42] the testers simultaneously collected various water flow data when the ship [00:04:46] was flushing and draining, and observed the ship's berthing method. These are important [00:04:50] bases for judging whether the ship can safely pass the lock [00:04:52] . [00:04:58] the safety of broadcasting through bombs. [00:06:14] During this summer vacation, cross-strait personnel exchanges continue to heat up. The [00:06:18] Fuzhou-Matsu "Mini Three Links" shipping route continues to be popular [00:06:21] , with passenger flow mainly for family visits and tourism [00:06:24] . [00:06:27] On the morning of August 12th, the Jishun No. 10 ferry, carrying [00:06:30] 132 Taiwanese compatriots , arrived at [00:06:34] Mawei Port from Matsu Baisha Port. Among them, some were visiting relatives and friends, and many [00:06:38] were taking advantage of the summer vacation to travel and sightsee [00:06:40] . Let's go to Fuzhou to eat [00:06:44] delicious food and bring some local specialties back to Taiwan . Currently, there are two "Mini Three Links" passenger [00:06:48] routes between Fuzhou and Matsu: Lianjiang Huangqi to Matsu, and Fuzhou Mawei to [00:06:51] Matsu. There are a total of eight flights daily between the two sides. [00:06:55] Among them, the Lianjiang Huangqi to Matsu route [00:06:59] has the advantages of short voyage, convenient transfer, and cheap [00:07:03] price. The ship departs at 10 AM and arrives in Hongqi in about 25 minutes [00:07:06] . Then we have lunch here, and the ship departs at 3 [00:07:10] PM to return. I have been to the mainland more than a dozen times in July [00:07:14] , and although there are many people , the customs clearance here is still [00:07:18] quite fast. In recent years, with the promotion of cross-strait integrated development demonstration area construction [00:07:22] in Fujian and the implementation of Fuzhou's policy of building [00:07:26] a Fuma integrated living circle, exchanges between Fuzhou and Matsu [00:07:30] have become more frequent. During this summer vacation, the Lianjiang Huangqi to Matsu [00:07:33] "Mini Three Links" passenger route has continued to operate at a high passenger flow. Since [00:07:37] July, the Huangma "Mini Three Links" passenger route has had a daily average passenger flow of about [00:07:41] 266 people , a year-on-year increase of about 45%. We [00:07:44] will combine the one-time clearance practice with the dynamic pre-warning and adjustment mechanism [00:07:48] , and reasonably allocate inspection and quarantine forces according to the passenger [00:07:52] volume, shortening the passenger [00:07:53] clearance time [00:07:59] You are watching the news live broadcast [00:08:03] . Continue to pay attention to the rainy weather [00:08:07] after the white dolphin. The Central Meteorological Administration predicts that from the night of the 13th to [00:08:11] the 15th [00:08:30] Affected by the residual white dolphin and the common influence of the western grass, heavy rainfall will continue [00:08:33] in the central and western and southern parts of Huanghuai, Jianghan, Jianghai, northern Jiangnan, [00:08:37] and central and southern North China . [00:08:39] . [00:09:12] geological disasters, small and medium-sized river floods, and urban flash floods and other secondary [00:09:16] disasters, vigilance needs to be raised and prevention strengthened [00:09:19] . On the 13th, the Ministry of Water Resources held a meeting to [00:09:23] analyze and judge the national flood situation, and it is expected that some [00:09:27] major rivers in the Yangtze River basin will experience significant rising water processes [00:09:30] . [00:09:33] According to the forecast, from August 13th to 14th, affected by rainfall and upstream [00:09:37] inflow, the middle and lower reaches of the Han River main stream, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, [00:09:41] Chao Lake, and Chu River. Maintain flood control. [00:10:06] collection end, [00:10:08] large flow discharge together affected. On the evening of August 12th, and [00:10:55] a total of more than 2,800 people are currently on site for urgent [00:10:59] rescue efforts. We can take a look at some of the rescue footage [00:11:03] we took during the daytime to understand the progress of the rescue. [00:11:06] The entire rescue is divided into [00:11:10] three forces. The first force is to go by road [00:11:14] . That is to say, on the land bank next to the breach [00:11:18] , our armed police and fire fighters [00:11:22] are manually transporting the sandbags to the breach [00:11:25] for sealing . In addition, [00:11:29] through the waterway , about [00:11:32] 200 meters east of the breach , our fire [00:11:36] fighters are there, manually transporting the sandbags [00:11:39] to the water surface , and then [00:11:43] using rubber boats to spray water [00:11:47] towards the breach for sealing [00:11:50] . There is also the aerial method [00:11:53] . [00:13:08] The north of the breach is the Shayin River, which belongs to the Huaihe River basin [00:13:12] in the west [00:14:25] Combine this into an excessive flood here, [00:14:29] then come to cut the flood, to ensure the safety of this river basin [00:14:32] and the surrounding urban areas. From this morning, [00:14:36] it was officially activated. As for the residents in this [00:14:40] flood diversion area, the emergency transfer was completed this morning [00:14:44] . This transfer involved two towns and 10 [00:14:48] villages in the entire flood diversion area without dike [00:14:52] protection . [00:14:56] From August 11th, 50 to 13th, 70 areas in Shanxi Province experienced the strongest rainfall process since this year, with the maximum cumulative rainfall reaching 225.2 millimeters in some areas, causing floods. [00:15:12] The local authorities quickly launched emergency responses, doing a good job of road personnel transfer and resettlement. [00:15:21] Continuous strong river line water [00:15:25] . In response, the local authorities launched an emergency plan to implement temporary traffic control on [00:15:28] two dangerous road sections , and at the same time [00:15:32] systematically organized the evacuation of residents from dangerous areas. The reporter saw at the [00:15:36] centralized resettlement site in Duohuo Township that various living materials were provided [00:15:40] , and the villagers' three meals were guaranteed [00:16:38] threat, in the face of the situation, the local authorities promptly activated the flood control emergency response [00:16:42] . [00:16:44] As a key flood control area along the Chu River in Quanjiao County, Chuzhou City [00:16:48] Wugang Town organized party members and cadres to go deep into villages and groups, conducting [00:16:52] comprehensive inspections of river courses, low-lying houses, and other key locations in low-lying areas [00:16:56] . For special groups such as migrant workers, the elderly, and those in difficult circumstances [00:17:00] , staff went door-to-door to assist with evacuation , ensuring that no household [00:17:04] or individual was missed . [00:18:58] According to data from the maritime tracking company Kpler , as of last [00:19:01] week, crude oil exports from the Strait of Hormuz this year have fallen to about [00:19:05] 3.7 million barrels per day . Before the US [00:19:09] and Israel launched military strikes against Iran on February 28th, [00:19:13] approximately 20 million barrels of crude oil passed through the Strait of Hormuz daily. US media reported [00:19:17] that multiple countries in the region are currently actively seeking permanent solutions to bypass the Strait of Hormuz [00:19:21] . For example, in the port city of Al Fujairah facing the Gulf of Oman [00:19:25] , workers are laying a new crude oil pipeline [00:19:28] . This pipeline runs parallel to the existing [00:19:32] oil pipelines and is used to transport crude oil [00:19:36] from Abu Dhabi's onshore oil fields [00:19:39] . This project aims to double Al Fujairah's bypass shipping capacity [00:19:43] to 3.6 million barrels per day , thereby allowing [00:19:46] almost all of Abu Dhabi's onshore crude oil to be directly [00:19:50] transported to international oil tankers without passing through the Strait of Hormuz. In Saudi [00:19:54] Arabia, state-owned oil giant Saudi Aramco is accelerating [00:19:58] the expansion of its East-West oil pipeline project, costing billions [00:20:02] of dollars. This 1201-kilometer-long oil [00:20:06] pipeline spans [00:20:37] the construction of an oil pipeline that has been around for a long time [00:20:40] . If the pipeline is built, it can transport up to 1 million barrels [00:20:44] of crude oil per day to the Port of Aqaba on the Red Sea coast. In addition [00:20:48] , Iraq is also accelerating a plan to repair damaged oil pipelines [00:20:51] to transport crude oil from the Kirkuk oil field to [00:20:55] the Mediterranean coast of Syria . [00:20:58] According to a report by the US Washington Post on the 12th [00:21:01] , quoting multiple US sources , US President Trump [00:21:05] was forced to change his private plane last month due to security threat [00:21:09] warnings, but CIA officials believe that this intelligence [00:21:13] from Israel is not credible [00:21:14] . [00:21:20] When Kala attended and left the NATO summit, he did not take Air Force One [00:21:24] presidential plane, but secretly changed to a military plane [00:21:27] . The Wall Street Journal recently revealed that Israeli intelligence agencies at the time informed the US [00:21:31] that Iran might use shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles to attack Trump's [00:21:35] plane. The Washington Post reported on the 12th, quoting [00:21:39] multiple US informed sources, that the CIA received this intelligence [00:21:43] from Israel, but considered it to be of low credibility. US intelligence officials believe [00:21:47] that Israel issued a warning to the US more to influence Trump's [00:21:50] decisions and his Middle East policy. An official said [00:21:54] that Israel regards Iran as the biggest threat at this stage, and Turkey [00:21:58] as a medium and long-term threat, and is uneasy about the warming [00:22:02] of US-Turkey relations. Trump confirmed to the media on the 11th [00:22:05] that the US intelligence agency and the military recommended that he change planes [00:22:09] due to threats. A US official said that despite [00:22:13] the CIA's questioning of the credibility of Israel's intelligence, the intelligence agency [00:22:17] still developed a plan for Trump to quietly change [00:22:28] At present, neither the CIA nor the Israeli side have responded to this matter [00:22:31] . The US aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, deployed [00:22:35] to the Middle East due to the Iranian war, has been at sea for more [00:22:39] than eight months, during which time it has not docked for long periods, and its deployment [00:22:43] period has been extended multiple times and it is unknown when it will end. About 5,000 crew members [00:22:46] are in low spirits, and with poor living conditions, many [00:22:50] have suffered mental breakdowns and tried to jump [00:22:52] overboard [00:22:55] . According to the US military newspaper on the 12th, Annabelle Loma's husband [00:22:58] was one of the crew members who tried to jump overboard. His time at sea [00:23:02] has been continuously extended, and he is currently on sick leave. After failing to jump [00:23:06] overboard, he only spoke to Loma a few times. The report also mentioned [00:23:10] that two other people failed to jump overboard, and many crew members were in low [00:23:14] spirits and exhausted when contacting their families. [00:23:17] According to a report by the US New York Times on the 11th , many crew members [00:23:21] reported suicidal thoughts, and one crew member said that everyone [00:23:25] wanted to go home as soon as possible. In April this year, some media reported that [00:23:29] the living conditions on the Lincoln were poor, but it was dismissed as fake news [00:23:33] by US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper. Recently, the US NO news channel [00:23:37] again exposed the current situation on the ship [00:23:39] . [00:23:44] toilets, moldy showers, laundry facilities that were broken for weeks [00:23:47] and extended periods with no hot water for [00:23:51] showering, the family say their loved ones have described food shortages [00:23:55] and standing in line at the ship's store for an hour or [00:23:58] more, even while it often lacks basic [00:24:01] supplies like toothpaste, soap and deodorant. i [00:24:05] don't think it's the ship is the issue, i think [00:24:08] it's it's our president, it's our [00:24:12] government that's not helping the morale. our government needs [00:24:16] to be doing more for our military that's sitting. [00:24:20] According to reports, the Lincoln left San Diego Naval Base in California [00:24:24] on November 21st last year, and was originally scheduled to be deployed [00:24:28] to the Pacific. To cooperate with the US government's continuous pressure on Iran, it was transferred [00:24:32] to the Middle East in January this year, and participated in large-scale [00:24:36] military operations by the US against Iran. During this period, the ship's personnel only [00:24:39] landed for one day in December last year and July this year in Guam, USA, [00:24:43] and Oman, respectively. US Acting Secretary of the Navy, Thomas Modly, recently stated [00:24:47] that he is ready to send the USS Theodore Roosevelt to replace the Lincoln [00:24:52] , but the specific timetable is inconvenient to disclose . Continue to pay attention to the 7.5 [00:24:56] magnitude earthquake in Colombia. The head of Colombia's National Disaster Risk [00:25:00] Management Agency announced the latest earthquake disaster figures on the 13th [00:25:03] , stating that the earthquake has currently caused 273 deaths [00:25:07] and 3,824 injuries , with another 377 people [00:25:11] missing. Rescue efforts in the heavily hit area of Pereira are still [00:25:15] ongoing, with every second counting . In the city center, once a landmark [00:25:19] building [00:26:20] the more volunteers there are, the faster we can get [00:26:24] there and clear rubble. We believe we will find life [00:26:28] here. Hope is the last thing we lose, so we are. [00:27:38] You are watching the news live broadcast [00:27:41] . Today, thunderstorm weather is frequent [00:27:45] , and some flights have even encountered lightning strikes, raising concerns about flight [00:27:49] safety. Many netizens expressed concern about planes encountering lightning strikes. [00:27:53] Why do planes encounter lightning strikes , and is flying [00:27:57] safe [00:27:58] ? For passengers, [00:29:55] can this situation be predicted or actively avoided in advance ? [00:29:59] Essentially, it is between charged cloud layers or cloud layers [00:31:02] or to a large extent, this discharge phenomenon will occur [00:31:06] . In this case, we can also adopt the method of avoiding [00:31:10] this area to avoid the risk of being struck by lightning [00:31:13] . Since lightning strikes cannot be completely avoided, [00:31:17] can an airplane still fly normally after being struck by lightning? Is it necessary [00:31:21] to replace it [00:31:24] ? To judge the impact of a lightning strike on an aircraft [00:31:28] , we do not look at the lightning strike point, but rather whether each [00:31:32] lightning strike point has caused damage to the aircraft's structure , and also [00:31:35] whether it has caused damage to the equipment inside the aircraft. This is our [00:31:39] standard for evaluating the damage caused by lightning strikes to aircraft . Lightning strike points [00:31:43] are mostly lightning in most cases [00:32:53] . A thorough investigation is required. Repair and investigation will take several hours, or even longer. In order not to keep passengers waiting at the airport for a long time, the airline will directly dispatch another backup aircraft of the same model [00:32:57] to pick up the passengers , while the original aircraft that was replaced [00:33:00] will be towed back to the hangar for thorough inspection and maintenance. After confirming [00:33:04] its safety, it will be put back into operation. This is the end of this [00:33:08] news live broadcast. Thank you [00:33:09] for watching [00:33:29] . To avoid food delivery riders running red lights due to time [00:33:33] pressure, three food delivery platforms have introduced new measures to stop [00:33:37] the timer at red lights. During our investigation , we found that riders [00:33:40] facing red lights , if the red light duration [00:33:44] is very long and their delivery time is relatively tight [00:33:48] , there is a possibility that they will have the urge to run [00:33:52] the red light .
