[00:00:47] The heavy rains have also affected the regional train network. The [00:00:50] R3 between Vic and Ripoll, the RL4 between [00:00:54] Calaf and Mantresa and the R.11 [00:00:57] the autonomous city at the Marivent between Massanet Massanes and Girona have had to be cut.

He would have [00:01:20] been stabbed after an argument. There is one [00:01:23] detainee. [00:01:27] Rodri approaches Barça, the midfielder. The best [00:01:30] player in the World Cup, gives the green light to the Blaugrana club to [00:01:35] his visit to Palma. negotiate with Manchester City for his transfer, to the detriment of the offer he had from Real Madrid. [00:01:50] to declare liberation [00:02:09] Good evening, how are you? The storms that have affected a good part of Catalonia have [00:02:12] left heavy rains accompanied by hail as well, but they have not [00:02:16] caused personal injuries or major damage. At night, [00:02:20] the rain has been torrential in areas of the Lleida province with 70 [00:02:24] liters per square meter in Montsec d'Ares, rain that during the [00:02:28] and tropical weather in a good part of afternoon has hindered traffic on some roads, as well as the operation [00:02:32] of some regional train lines, and temperatures have dropped below [00:02:36] 20 degrees in many [00:02:38] municipalities. [00:02:42] The heavy rains have affected mobility since early afternoon in [00:02:45] several places, such as the transverse axis where vehicles had to [00:02:49] drive with extreme caution due to the accumulation of water on the road. At [00:02:52] the height of Rejadell, the prudence of some drivers caused them to [00:02:56] take shelter under a bridge and we had to get out [00:02:59] the the... day that we were able to get under a bridge because it's hailing [00:03:03] in the interior of the Ebro large hail, so this also makes the car not very stable, [00:03:06] right? Besides, visibility is very reduced, you know, because if there's [00:03:10] any material damage or something, it's better to wait half an hour, because later you might have to [00:03:14] pay a much higher price. The most water fell in Sant Hilaris in [00:03:18] Calma with 67 liters per square meter, 58 in Sant [00:03:22] Salvador de Guardiola and 50 in Santa Coloma de Farners, 28 [00:03:26] liters fell in just half an hour. La Garrotxa. The [00:03:30] hailstorm has turned into a downpour, one of the most affected areas has been [00:03:33] Olot, where hail the size of table tennis balls fell and [00:03:37] winds of up to 60 km/h. Precisely in [00:03:41] Olot, the temperature dropped from 36 to 18 degrees in [00:03:44] just one hour. The hailstorm also reached La Cerdanya, El [00:03:47] Pallars, L'Alt Urgell in the town [00:03:49] close one of the summer's of Fals, in Bages, where some hailstones were more than 6 [00:03:53] cm. Civil Protection continues to ask for caution to [00:03:57] avoid accidents and maintains the alert for the inoncat plan. There can still [00:04:00] be strong storms until nightfall and therefore we must [00:04:04] be vigilant when driving. If driving is not [00:04:07] prudent, we don't have visibility, stop the vehicle, wait for the downpour to pass, [00:04:11] especially do not cross rivers, do not cross [00:04:13] ravines. [00:04:17] The rains have also affected several regional train lines, the R3 has [00:04:21] scam by a travel agency in already resumed circulation but was cut for several hours [00:04:24] between Vic and Ripoll and as of now the [00:04:28] RL4 between Calaf and Manresa and also the R11 between [00:04:31] Maçanet Massanes and Caldes de Malavella are still not running. [00:04:35] In [00:04:39] there to send a very this case, the line has been interrupted by the fall of a tree in Riudellots de la Selva. An alternative road [00:04:44] confirmed. They found out about service has been enabled. One of the trains had to turn back and passengers were [00:04:48] waiting for more than an hour until they finally were able to [00:04:52] take these buses to continue their [00:04:55] journey. [00:04:58] The episode of heavy rain. It also caused the N145 road between Andorra and La Seu [00:05:02] d'Urgell to be closed for a good while this afternoon due to a [00:05:05] landslide. Traffic was complicated throughout the [00:05:08] afternoon, but it has now been restored. Joaquí [00:05:12] Malbalate has been following it. The most notable incident here in the Pyrenees has [00:05:16] been this road, the N-145 between Andorra and La Seu [00:05:19] d'Urgell. There was a landslide, a large amount of water that [00:05:23] carried away stones and mud that ended up on one of the lanes [00:05:26] of this road, specifically in the southbound direction towards La Seu d'Urgell. This [00:05:30] happened at a very bad time, around 5 o'clock, when there was the most [00:05:34] traffic, because that's when many workers go up or down from the [00:05:37] principality. This caused long queues for a while. alternative [00:05:41] passage had to be given while the machines removed the rubble that had fallen [00:05:44] on the road, after about an hour, but all this material [00:05:48] has already been removed and traffic has been reopened [00:05:52] normally. [00:05:53] This is the image of this afternoon on the migratory crisis [00:06:01] that Ceuta has been experiencing for a week, King [00:06:05] Felipe VI has received the president of [00:06:09] Palace in Palma. This is interpreted as a gesture of [00:06:13] support from the crown for the situation the city [00:06:16] is experiencing. [00:06:17] In this meeting, the president of Ceuta has [00:06:21] insisted to the king on the need to secure the border with [00:06:24] Morocco. Catarina Carmall has been following it. To have [00:06:28] the necessary infrastructure to secure the [00:06:32] border, immediately expel all the people who [00:06:35] crossed from Morocco to Ceuta, about 80,000, and which he has described [00:06:39] as an avalanche. And to reinforce the police [00:06:42] presence in its territory. These are the demands made by the president of Ceuta during [00:06:48] Vivas has met with Felipe Sisa to whom he has explained that Ceuta [00:06:51] is experiencing a trauma that has not yet been resolved and has extracted [00:06:55] a commitment for him to visit them. He has also met with the [00:06:58] Balearic president. Hours after nine people died trying [00:07:02] to reach the islands. Both claim more reinforcement [00:07:05] at the borders. [00:07:08] and how we believe from the city council that [00:07:14] normality can be restored. We have proposed this to the national government [00:07:17] by expelling [00:07:21] from Ceuta all those [00:07:24] who have arrived irregularly in Ceuta [00:07:27] through the avalanche. Secondly, I believe it is [00:07:30] necessary to address the humanitarian emergency. And [00:07:34] thirdly, I believe that the state security forces and [00:07:37] bodies must be reinforced. [00:07:39] donation that [00:07:42] all the autonomous communities that [00:07:46] form the southern border of Spain and [00:07:49] Europe have. Morocco would be willing, it says, to receive [00:07:53] unaccompanied minors if Spain lifts the [00:07:56] judicial and administrative obstacles that it says [00:07:59] prevent it from doing so. This comes as Ceuta admits that it will not be able to meet the 15-day [00:08:03] deadline set by law to distribute the minors [00:08:07] and therefore their distribution to the rest of the autonomous communities [00:08:10] could be extended for months. [00:08:14] While popular governments like that of Ceuta or the Balearic Islands ask for [00:08:17] solidarity to welcome unaccompanied minors, the [00:08:21] presidents of the PP from other communities also raise [00:08:25] objections and in the middle the party leadership points to [00:08:29] the Spanish [00:08:29] government. [00:08:37] this [00:08:42] situation. Get rid of that [00:08:44] ultra-reactionary international wave and that ultra-reactionary wave that permeates [00:08:48] Vox. The government pacts of PP and Vox in Extremadura, [00:08:51] Aragon, Castilla y León and Andalusia state [00:08:54] textually that they will not accept unaccompanied [00:08:57] minors and that they reject the migratory policy of the Spanish [00:09:01] government. Only the Andalusian Pact adds that the legal [00:09:05] framework will be complied with, but the PP leadership extends [00:09:08] this to the rest. It will be complied with and the Popular Party. [00:09:42] European via video conference to supervise the Spanish border with [00:09:46] Morocco. The Ceuta president says he does not trust the North [00:09:50] African country, and Brussels admits that migration control cannot [00:09:53] depend on the goodwill of the [00:09:55] country. [00:09:58] The European Union recognizes that an episode of this magnitude has never been experienced in the last 20 years, [00:10:01] at least not in a single day, and points to the need to use all [00:10:05] community influence, including visa policy, [00:10:09] trade and development aid. to ensure Morocco's cooperation in [00:10:13] migration matters, because only with the goodwill of neighboring [00:10:16] countries, as stressed by the commissioner responsible for this area, in a [00:10:20] telematics session in the European Parliament, [00:10:24] no... [00:10:38] Some critics of this position argue that the strategy leaves the European [00:10:41] bloc exposed to pressure from these transit countries that [00:10:45] can ease or threaten to ease migratory controls [00:10:49] in search of political or economic concessions. In [00:10:52] this sense, the president of Ceuta does not believe in any goodwill from [00:10:56] Morocco and demands that Europe supervise this border [00:10:59] that he says belongs to everyone, with more presence and logistical support. [00:11:03] Given what we've seen, Morocco is not a reliable country [00:11:06] for the external border, one of the only [00:11:10] land borders of Europe in Africa to be in the hands [00:11:13] of Morocco, we need that [00:11:17] authority to be exercised by Europe and by [00:11:20] Spain, by Spain and by Europe. For the commissioner as well as for the Spanish government, Morocco [00:11:24] is a reliable partner, he also holds mafias responsible for this situation and [00:11:28] stresses the need for the European Parliament to finally approve [00:11:30] the directive that allows sanctioning those who collaborate with [00:11:34] illegal immigration. [00:11:36] In this context, the Civil Guard [00:11:38] is now searching social networks to confirm if the new massive [00:11:42] entry of migrants into Ceuta, which is announced for August [00:11:46] 15, can be true. For now, the Civil Guard [00:11:49] does give it credibility. Marta Viladot. The Civil Guard [00:11:53] states in its preliminary reports that there may [00:11:56] be a real risk. Security forces are studying the [00:12:00] messages that are being disseminated on social networks and that talk [00:12:04] about this possible entry on August 15 or later [00:12:07] dates. It is not ruled out that it is an episode of [00:12:11] disinformation, but there is also a possibility, therefore all [00:12:14] preparations are being made in case it becomes effective. The government [00:12:18] delegate in Ceuta, in fact, has assured that the Spanish government is [00:12:21] monitoring all these messages, also the European [00:12:25] Commission is following them and they say that there have been [00:12:28] channels in Russia that have amplified what happened on July [00:12:32] 30. [00:12:33] More topics: Esquerra Republicana has [00:12:40] been left without a candidate for mayor of Girona because [00:12:43] Marc Puigtió has resigned after a conversation with an [00:12:47] influencer linked to the extreme right was published this [00:12:51] week, a conversation in which he explained his plans to get rid of [00:12:54] his party colleagues whom he criticized. Puigtió [00:12:58] acknowledges that he made a mistake and has decided to take [00:13:01] responsibility. His candidacy was highly contested [00:13:04] in controversial primaries that he [00:13:06] won by a single vote. Esquerra admits that [00:13:09] a new stage is now opening to appoint another candidate for the [00:13:13] municipal elections in May. [00:13:17] I made a mistake and I think that in politics [00:13:19] when you make a mistake, what you have to do is be honest with yourself, [00:13:23] step aside, I spoke with the wrong [00:13:27] person, but well, the video is edited, [00:13:30] it's taken out of context of time and [00:13:34] forms, but it's there and they are my words, so I think [00:13:37] I have to assume it. [00:13:39] The case of Silvia Orriols' daughter has reached the anti-fraud office, [00:13:43] this institution has opened a file against the mayor of Ripoll for [00:13:47] alleged irregularities in the hiring of the girl as a local [00:13:50] police agent. According to Europa Press, [00:13:54] Antifrau has started an investigation based on a complaint. [00:13:57] Urriols denies having influenced her daughter's competition, Junts per [00:14:01] Catalunya criticizes her for lack of institutional [00:14:05] propriety. [00:14:05] The WHO warns that the Ebola [00:14:15] epidemic in Congo is spreading at an unprecedented speed, [00:14:18] a pandemic that was detected three months ago and that already totals [00:14:22] 17,150 deaths and nearly [00:14:25] 4,000 confirmed cases. The armed conflict in Congo and the [00:14:28] shortcomings of the state to deal with it mean that the virus [00:14:32] gains more speed. [00:14:34] I grab one, a health worker speaks [00:14:37] to the 200 passengers of a barge. After navigating [00:14:40] 1600 km in the Congo River, it is at the gates of the [00:14:44] capital Kinshasa. The authorities have blocked it [00:14:47] because a passenger has died with Ebola symptoms. The [00:14:51] fear is that the virus has left the country and is already spreading through the west [00:14:55] and will eventually reach the capital where 17 million [00:14:58] people live. The WHO Secretary-General has also traveled [00:15:04] worrying message. [00:15:06] but from very far [00:15:11] distant, it's far ahead ahead of [00:15:14] us, [00:15:16] so it's already been three months since the [00:15:20] Ebola epidemic was detected in Congo, and the virus is spreading at an [00:15:24] unprecedented speed, four times faster than in previous [00:15:27] outbreaks. There are almost 4,000 confirmed cases, [00:15:31] 1,750 of which have already died, and there are also [00:15:35] 17 suspected contacts. Why is it spreading so [00:15:37] fast? Basically, due to the serious shortcomings of the Congolese [00:15:41] state, the virus was detected when it was already widespread. Overwhelmed [00:15:44] surveillance teams only have the means to confirm a [00:15:48] small part of the infections. The majority escape their control and [00:15:51] many health workers are on strike because they are not paid enough [00:15:55] or on time. In addition, Congo is immersed in an armed conflict [00:15:59] that has forced a million people to flee their homes, a mobility that [00:16:03] further complicates the fight against the virus. Despite this, the WHO [00:16:06] says, Ebola can be stopped, local communities need to [00:16:10] be much more involved in prevention, detection and isolation of the sick, [00:16:14] the government needs more resources and the international community needs to [00:16:17] get much more involved. A [00:16:20] US Senate commission has decided to declare Anthony [00:16:24] Fauci, who was responsible for managing Covid in the United [00:16:27] States during Donald Trump's first term, in [00:16:30] contempt. Fauci repeatedly clashed with the [00:16:33] president who opposed the... [00:16:47] answer numerous questions from the commission that was investigating [00:16:51] his actions during the Covid [00:16:52] era. [00:16:57] The White House has already returned 100,000 million dollars of the [00:17:00] tariffs that it illegally collected from importing [00:17:04] companies to allow products to enter the country. Many [00:17:07] of... The affected companies, such as Apple or Walmart, [00:17:11] passed on a significant part of the cost of the tariffs in the final [00:17:15] price paid by customers, and some of these [00:17:18] customers also want to be compensated and are claiming through legal channels to [00:17:21] have the right to a refund. [00:17:25] When Donald Trump came out with the whiteboard [00:17:28] day. [00:17:31] And he unleashed the torrent of tariffs against Miigmunt. Little could he [00:17:35] have imagined that the one who would stop him was much closer. In February [00:17:39] of this year, the Supreme Court declared the tariffs illegal [00:17:43] because the White House had resorted to an emergency law that [00:17:46] was not applicable. This meant that the US Treasury would have to [00:17:50] return all the money that customs had overcharged, a total of [00:17:54] 166,000 million dollars. It has now been [00:17:57] learned that 100,000 have already been returned. So, [00:18:00] to the importers who paid customs to bring goods into the [00:18:04] country. Large multinationals like Apple have recovered [00:18:07] 2.2 billion dollars, Amazon 600 [00:18:11] million, also Nike, Ford, Pepsico, large chains like [00:18:14] Walmart and Costco or Asian multinationals like [00:18:18] Sony, Nintendo or Samsung. Many companies passed on a [00:18:21] significant part of the cost of the tariffs in the final price of the product [00:18:25] that suppliers and customers bought. Now, some [00:18:28] of these customers have gone to court to demand the right to a [00:18:32] refund, in the same way that they had to bear the surcharge. Most [00:18:35] of the multinational American and foreign companies have [00:18:39] already warned that there will be no [00:18:41] reimbursement. Today marks 81 years since the [00:18:45] dropping of the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city [00:18:48] of Hiroshima, in which around 150,000 people [00:18:52] died. The commemoration has served for the Japanese Prime Minister, [00:18:56] who heads a government that makes defense a priority, [00:19:00] strengthening the army and also the military industry, to reiterate [00:19:03] that she remains committed to the three principles against nuclear [00:19:06] weapons: Not to possess them, not to produce [00:19:09] them, and not to store them in her [00:19:11] territory. [00:19:21] One person arrested for the violent death of a man at midday in the Nou [00:19:25] Barris district of Barcelona. The events allegedly occurred after an [00:19:28] argument between three people. The victim was [00:19:32] stabbed in the face and neck. When he tried to [00:19:35] escape, he fell on a motorcycle that was [00:19:39] parked on the street. He was taken to Vallde Bron hospital, but he [00:19:43] ended up dying due to the severity of his injuries. The Mossos [00:19:47] are investigating the causes and the case is under secrecy of [00:19:50] proceedings. [00:19:53] Since the beginning of this week, we have reported on the case of a possible [00:19:59] L'Escala that has left hundreds of people unable [00:20:02] to take their holidays. The complaints have multiplied and [00:20:06] already reach... but there could be many more and [00:20:10] there would even be cases outside [00:20:12] Catalonia. [00:20:15] They were supposed to go to Disneyland Paris for New Year's, but they still haven't been able to find out [00:20:19] if their reservation is [00:20:22] the possible scam of the agency with Escapo Viajes through the [00:20:26] 3 cat info portal. We panicked, we started calling her [00:20:29] compulsively, sending her messages, she didn't answer the phone. [00:20:32] Now, based on the experiences of others, [00:20:36] affected people, we imagine that we don't have it, that nothing [00:20:39] has been paid, you told us that you would tell us something, we still don't [00:20:42] know anything, today I'm calling you, I'm in a very complicated situation, I thought [00:20:46] I could solve it, but no, my trip is still on, right? Now [00:20:50] I can't do anything about it, I have to go to a lawyer and see how I proceed, there are many people [00:20:54] affected. A trip to Japan worth 12,000 euros [00:20:57] vanished five days before taking the flight. No, Lídia, you don't have [00:21:01] a trip. So, of course, I was told, they spoke to me and told me [00:21:05] that the license had been revoked. The Catalan Consumer Agency is not aware [00:21:09] that the company had the mandatory insurance to [00:21:12] operate. This, according to the lawyer for some of the [00:21:14] affected parties, could complicate the refund of the money. In the [00:21:18] event that this insurance does not exist, the affected [00:21:22] parties will only depend on the company's [00:21:25] own assets, and if it does not have [00:21:29] any real estate or movable property, then [00:21:32] they will not be able to pay back the taxes. Almost [00:21:36] a week later, the Mossos have received ninety [00:21:39] complaints, meanwhile the WhatsApp group of affected parties, which already exceeds [00:21:42] 470 members, continues to boil, there would even be cases in [00:21:46] Galicia. The House of Water with Gas Pitxi Catalan [00:21:51] offers you this space. Good evening! The Manchester City [00:30:32] the storms that have swept a large part of Catalonia, the downpours have been [00:30:36] torrential in several places and have been accompanied by hail, there [00:30:39] have been landslides on the transverse axis on the road that connects La Seu d'Urgell [00:30:43] with Andorra. [00:30:47] The heavy rains have also affected the local train network. The R3 between [00:30:50] Vic and Ripoll, the RL4 between Calaf and Manresa, the R11 [00:30:54] between Massanet, Massanes and Girona had to be cut. [00:30:57] Girona.
