[00:00:06] camera did not record the
[00:00:07] moment or the recording or the
[00:00:13] end of July, not only here at
[00:00:44] Yes, I invite you to join me in the next half
[00:00:47] hour with the main news that
[00:00:50] Morocco has also increased marked the day's agenda, we begin with a lot of information, well and
[00:00:54] we begin in Colombia, President Abelardo de la
[00:00:57] Espiella asks his American counterpart.
[00:01:00] Donald Trump, to suspend tariffs on Colombian products
[00:01:03] due to the emergency caused by last Monday's
[00:01:07] earthquake, August 10, which has left 289
[00:01:10] dead. In a call he said he had with the US
[00:01:14] president, he argued that
[00:01:16] this eventual suspension would benefit
[00:01:20] Colombia's economy at a time when it must
[00:01:23] face reconstruction after the earthquake. The
[00:01:27] death toll was updated. by the
[00:01:30] government this Saturday afternoon and
[00:01:34] I'm going to Cali with my colleague Wilson Barco who has
[00:01:37] all the information and how the first weekend
[00:01:40] after the tragedy is being experienced,
[00:01:42] let's see,
[00:01:45] this was the Ariguaní building,
[00:01:47] on the first floor
[00:01:51] the parking lots were located,
[00:01:55] the building came
[00:01:56] down
[00:01:59] during. This week eight
[00:02:03] people died at this site, while
[00:02:07] three were
[00:02:10] rescued, I want
[00:02:12] to show you
[00:02:15] how the vehicles looked, that's a
[00:02:17] motorcycle and
[00:02:19] this is a car that got trapped
[00:02:23] in the basement, it was
[00:02:27] a building similar to this one across the street. and it was in
[00:02:31] these
[00:02:31] conditions,
[00:02:35] it was very painful,
[00:02:38] the rescue efforts were initially carried out with
[00:02:41] all the
[00:02:44] volunteer rescuers from the same neighborhood, I came here on previous
[00:02:48] nights and you could see the amount of people who were
[00:02:51] for information from helping
[00:02:53] day and night, the neighbors to save
[00:02:57] their people.
[00:03:00] and today the removal of the
[00:03:03] rubble is being done while
[00:03:06] I walk, look at one of the vehicles, it's parked a
[00:03:10] little,
[00:03:14] it was outside and it ended up in these conditions and
[00:03:18] I think I saw a
[00:03:20] second floor here, no this was the fourth floor that ended up
[00:03:23] here, the
[00:03:25] bed
[00:03:33] the twisted
[00:03:34] irons,
[00:03:38] this was the support
[00:03:38] of the
[00:03:42] parking lots, look how it
[00:03:44] ended up,
[00:03:51] in the background I can see a motorcycle
[00:03:54] too.
[00:04:05] We are doing this tour with safety
[00:04:08] measures under authorization of the engineers who told us that
[00:04:12] we could only do it from
[00:04:14] this front while
[00:04:16] the machinery continues
[00:04:20] to work,
[00:04:21] the
[00:04:26] affected families are in places.
[00:04:32] countdown for the Community Shield of relatives, many of them almost all are from close families, eh,
[00:04:36] we have already identified them, unfortunately, only
[00:04:39] one lady lost three people from her
[00:04:43] own family, how strong, a very complex situation, another lost
[00:04:46] two, in total there are 1,750
[00:04:50] affected buildings, the
[00:04:53] rubble removal work has just
[00:04:56] begun, for CNN, Wilson
[00:04:59] Barco. Cali
[00:05:00] Colombia,
[00:05:06] how terrible, well, we move on to other news in Zimbabwe, where at
[00:05:10] least 70 people died, including 18 children, after
[00:05:14] a ferry sank in Lake Kariba, according to police on
[00:05:17] Saturday after rescue teams recovered
[00:05:20] more bodies. The boat capsized on Tuesday due to strong
[00:05:24] waves and overloading, as at least 150
[00:05:28] people were traveling on a
[00:05:31] vessel with a capacity of 90. A list
[00:05:34] published by the authorities revealed that 16 of the deceased
[00:05:37] children were 10 years old or younger, the youngest
[00:05:40] was just 1 year old, well, in the United
[00:05:44] States, authorities in Indiana reported this Saturday that
[00:05:48] five people have already died from the floods caused by the rains
[00:05:51] that have been lashing the Midwest for a week.
[00:05:55] The meteorological service predicts that precipitation will continue through the
[00:05:58] night and until Sunday afternoon. More than 21
[00:06:02] million people across the Midwest remain under
[00:06:06] flood watch this Saturday. The mayor of
[00:06:09] Indianapolis said that the city was experiencing its worst
[00:06:12] floods in more than 30 years and asked residents
[00:06:15] of Reid, Rookie, Raiper and other
[00:06:18] affected areas to leave their homes and seek
[00:06:22] a safe place.
[00:06:26] Meanwhile, tropical storm Lala intensified this Saturday and became
[00:06:30] a Category One hurricane that is already battering the Big Island of Hawaii, with strong
[00:06:34] winds and intense rains. If it makes landfall as a hurricane tonight, it
[00:06:38] would be the first to directly
[00:06:41] impact the island in more than
[00:06:45] 30 years,
[00:07:01] as we see on screen, a 46-year-old man was arrested and
[00:07:05] charged with multiple hate crimes after
[00:07:08] interrupting Shabbat services on Friday
[00:07:12] vandalizing property and injuring a woman at the Central Synagogue of
[00:07:16] Manhattan, according to the New York Police, this incident
[00:07:19] was even condemned by the mayor of the
[00:07:23] city and the governor of New
[00:07:26] York.
[00:07:28] And in immigration news, the controversy continues over ICE's
[00:07:32] plan for agents to receive
[00:07:35] electric shock gloves to use when making
[00:07:39] arrests. According to the Department of Homeland Security,
[00:07:42] quoted by AP, the federal agency plans
[00:07:45] to spend some 20 million dollars on the acquisition
[00:07:49] of these equipment that have already been used in some prisons and
[00:07:53] police departments, neither the Department of Homeland Security
[00:07:56] nor the manufacturer Compliance Technology
[00:08:00] responded to requests
[00:08:03] the news
[00:08:05] agency,
[00:08:07] well and now, now I'm going to New York, there is the political
[00:08:11] analyst. Robert Valencia, to
[00:08:14] delve into this issue, Robert,
[00:08:18] well, we saw this announcement that ICE makes, but we have also
[00:08:21] seen during the week an increase in
[00:08:25] migrant deaths under
[00:08:28] ICE custody and on the other hand a controversy these
[00:08:32] days when an ICE agent
[00:08:35] pointed his weapon at
[00:08:38] a woman arguing that she wanted
[00:08:43] to run over or wanted to run over ICE agents, what
[00:08:47] is your reading of all this, what are
[00:08:49] we seeing,
[00:08:51] well, first of all, Ray, it's always a pleasure to be on your show and a greeting to all the audience,
[00:08:55] well, eh, I think here the point is several points,
[00:08:59] I would categorize it into two points, first transparency and second the
[00:09:02] capacity of the agency itself that has been under public
[00:09:06] scrutiny, even since the deaths of these two
[00:09:09] citizens in Minnesota and the deaths to which you also
[00:09:12] refer, in addition to the purchase
[00:09:15] of industrial warehouses to house
[00:09:18] migrants under subhuman conditions, but in this particular
[00:09:22] case what is concerning is the lack of
[00:09:26] training, the reduction of training hours that has been a topic that has
[00:09:29] been discussed for approximately a year, let's remember that before
[00:09:33] it was said that it took approximately 5
[00:09:36] months for these
[00:09:39] ICE agents to receive sufficient training. and they were
[00:09:43] reduced to practically
[00:09:46] six weeks or it was even talked about 47 days of
[00:09:49] accelerated training in honor of President
[00:09:53] 47, in this case obviously Donald Trump, now with the
[00:09:57] lack of transparency plus the events you point out, the episodes we
[00:10:01] have seen and now that this new
[00:10:03] technology comes in
[00:10:06] coupled precisely with that lack of training where there is not even
[00:10:09] Spanish language training, for example. This is the
[00:10:13] concern it causes, not to mention what you just mentioned, the
[00:10:16] incident with Carolina Molina, the woman you mention, who was
[00:10:20] pointed at with a gun and that coincidentally another of the
[00:10:24] technologies. that is now being contemplated is the use of these body
[00:10:27] cameras, well the body
[00:10:32] previous moment sorry to
[00:10:36] that incident that we have all seen and that you are seeing on screen at
[00:10:39] this moment, so eh it
[00:10:42] is this transparency issue I mean
[00:10:46] that in the case of body cameras for example, the
[00:10:50] agency determines in its best interests what
[00:10:53] videos come out. and what not, so I think that
[00:10:57] here is a set of situations in which we still see
[00:11:00] this lack of training, now the people who received the 47
[00:11:04] days of training no longer return to the 70 that ICE
[00:11:08] re-imposed and now with this new technology that it is not known how it will
[00:11:12] be used, although the manufacturers themselves
[00:11:15] say that it cannot inflict harm
[00:11:19] on minors and pregnant women, but given these
[00:11:22] recent incidents, now many
[00:11:26] more questions open up with the incorporation of
[00:11:28] this technology.
[00:11:31] Robert, you spoke of transparency, but we also have to see, we
[00:11:35] cannot ignore something, what
[00:11:38] does all this respond to,
[00:11:40] to a political
[00:11:43] issue eh, on the other hand,
[00:11:47] deterrent effects among migrants themselves, in
[00:11:50] short, what is your analysis on that, the
[00:11:54] pressure continues. from the political point of view, the government continues to
[00:11:57] exert pressure on AID that it has to make approximately 2
[00:12:01] detentions per day and that has also led the
[00:12:05] agency or at least the Department of Homeland Security to
[00:12:09] have made these purchases, although obviously there
[00:12:12] purchase of them
[00:12:15] due to some bureaucratic
[00:12:19] entanglements that occurred under the administration of Christin Noem and
[00:12:22] that the Agency has also pointed out. but that had not
[00:12:26] prevented this body from buying these
[00:12:29] industrial warehouses around the country and where some
[00:12:33] are still in dispute at the state level as in the case of
[00:12:36] Maryland and the case of New Jersey, but undoubtedly what is being tried to
[00:12:40] do here is what you point out is to make
[00:12:43] these deterrent practices but that can
[00:12:46] cost the lives of these people, let's remember that recently there was
[00:12:50] the death of this Colombian immigrant in Maine who was shot dead,
[00:12:53] the same thing happened in Texas with
[00:12:57] that Hispanic citizen or with that Hispanic person in that
[00:13:01] state where he was also shot down, all
[00:13:05] this is a matter of a lack of training but coincidentally and it
[00:13:08] must be said for example what happened in Minneapolis this person
[00:13:12] who killed René Good as you remember this
[00:13:16] other person fell at the hands of an agent who
[00:13:20] had 10 years of experience and who even received
[00:13:23] Spanish training. So there is an
[00:13:27] internal problem that needs to be resolved within the agency, this
[00:13:30] this is, this is completely, I think it's something
[00:13:33] that should be aimed at, but it continues to
[00:13:37] sign expensive contracts not only for the purchase of
[00:13:41] warehouses but now with these with this type of technologies without the
[00:13:44] proper scrutiny and training and that is what
[00:13:46] is worrying.
[00:13:51] Complex, complex matter Robert, thank you, thank you, that was...
[00:13:55] international political analyst
[00:17:28] and we move on to the Middle East, the Iranian Foreign Minister,
[00:17:31] Abasarachi, said this Saturday that Tehran has not decided whether
[00:17:35] to resume negotiations with the United States. to end the war, the
[00:17:39] foreign minister pointed out that, although conversations with
[00:17:42] mediators, Qatar and Pakistan, continue, such
[00:17:45] interactions do not constitute
[00:17:48] negotiations, my colleague Sale Meri from Tel Aviv with the
[00:17:51] report.
[00:17:55] Awaiting the agreement with Oman on the Strait of
[00:17:58] Hormuz and to achieve some kind of progress with the United States on the
[00:18:02] collapsed memorandum of understanding signed two
[00:18:06] months ago, Iran has strongly rejected the
[00:18:09] latest statement by President Donald Trump, referring to President
[00:18:13] Trump's words claiming that once he defeats the
[00:18:17] Iranian regime, he will declare the Strait of Hormuz as United
[00:18:20] States territory. The
[00:18:23] Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hazem Gari
[00:18:27] Babadi affirms that Iran is not afraid
[00:18:30] of Washington's threats and that the
[00:18:33] Strait of Hormuz will be open or closed always.
[00:18:37] depending on what Iran says, based on its authority,
[00:18:41] he says, over this important maritime
[00:18:43] route, but the conflict, tension and
[00:18:47] sporadic attacks are not only in the Strait of
[00:18:51] Hormuz, in the other important maritime route of the Middle East, there
[00:18:54] is also tension and attacks, it is about the Strait of
[00:18:58] Bab-el-Mandeb, the director of the port of Mocha in the
[00:19:02] situation, the Red Sea area, affirms
[00:19:05] that he will suspend his operations. missions after the
[00:19:09] Houthi, an armed group in Yemen
[00:19:11] under the tutelage of Iran, fired and
[00:19:14] launched at least 25 missiles in recent days, causing
[00:19:18] the death of seven people and numerous
[00:19:22] material damages. According to the Houthis, the target
[00:19:25] was eh targets, military headquarters
[00:19:29] of Saudi Arabia, and on another
[00:19:32] closed front, in Lebanon, a very intense
[00:19:35] day after Israel completed one of the most
[00:19:39] lethal attacks in the last two months and
[00:19:42] all, Israel says, due to the response
[00:19:46] to Hezbollah's attack against
[00:19:49] Israeli troops in southern Lebanon, causing serious injuries
[00:19:52] to three soldiers. The Lebanese president Joseph
[00:19:56] Aoun has condemned Israel's attack and said
[00:20:00] that it undermines efforts and possibilities for
[00:20:04] negotiations that have been ongoing for weeks between
[00:20:07] Lebanon and
[00:20:10] Israel for CNN Sale Mergi Telaviv
[00:20:22] and we move to Europe where a CNN
[00:20:26] Portugal video, a CNN affiliate, shows Spanish
[00:20:29] military vehicles deployed near the El
[00:20:32] Tarajal border crossing in Ceuta,
[00:20:35] Spain, this Saturday shortly after it was reported that Moroccan
[00:20:39] police had intercepted hundreds of
[00:20:42] migrants several kilometers from the
[00:20:46] border. This is the report.
[00:20:51] An unprecedented police deployment here in Ceuta, at the
[00:20:54] Tarajal border, so that the tens of thousands of
[00:20:58] migrants do not enter again, as happened at the
[00:21:03] the Spanish border, but also on the other side, in
[00:21:06] Morocco, the police deployment was large to
[00:21:10] then prevent migrants from trying to cross the border
[00:21:14] again, during this Saturday
[00:21:17] here on the Ceuta side the situation was
[00:21:21] calm, nobody tried to cross by swimming while
[00:21:25] we were here in Tarajal all morning, all day,
[00:21:28] but on the other side of Morocco, more than a
[00:21:32] hundred migrants tried to approach the border
[00:21:36] but were blocked by the Moroccan police,
[00:21:40] security not only at the border but also
[00:21:44] near the closest cities to this border
[00:21:48] precisely to prevent migrants from trying to pass here in
[00:21:51] Spanish territory, there are still thousands of
[00:21:55] migrants in Ceuta who entered about two weeks
[00:21:58] ago and still worry not only the
[00:22:01] government of Ceuta but also the authorities and the
[00:22:04] residents of Ceuta who complain about insecurity
[00:22:08] this Saturday Ceuta was on alert for the possibility
[00:22:12] of migrants trying to enter again but as I said
[00:22:15] the truth is that during the day here in Spain
[00:22:19] it was very quiet because in Morocco
[00:22:23] security at the border has been increased, police control
[00:22:26] has been increased.
[00:22:42] I have been working in journalism for 20 years in Mexico
[00:22:46] City, in the United States and now in Miami. for
[00:22:50] CNN CNN America is a multi-platform
[00:22:53] program where you will have information
[00:22:57] from all fields that will allow you to understand the world from the
[00:23:00] angle you are looking at it. In those
[00:23:03] three hours you will not only have information from a political
[00:23:06] economic point of view, but also health,
[00:23:10] from a women's point of view, but above all it is a space where
[00:23:14] we can have conversations not to polarize, but to
[00:23:18] integrate society.
[00:23:21] What excites me most is to inform, inquire,
[00:23:24] investigate the why of things, to get to the bottom of the
[00:23:28] facts, here you will see what makes news and everything that
[00:23:31] impacts your daily life. CNN America with Rebeca
[00:23:35] Kelly, Monday to Friday on CNN.
