[00:15:15] The eclipse of your
[00:15:16] life.
[00:15:22] About to experience the eclipse of the century in Catalonia. It is
[00:15:25] fascinating to observe how the moon gradually eats away at the sun's surface
[00:15:29] little by little. It is a truly
[00:15:33] extraordinary natural phenomenon. Let's discover what's behind the phenomenon.
[00:15:41] And suddenly it's as if time has
[00:15:44] stopped, it's almost
[00:15:46] magical. We are seeing the hottest thing that human eye
[00:15:50] will ever see. Nights without fiction.
[00:15:53] Eclipse across Europe, on TV3 on the
[00:15:57] trescat platform, Tuesday
[00:15:58] night.
[00:16:44] Hello, good evening, this Saturday was the first day that controls were put in place
[00:16:47] at Spanish airports and ports for passengers from
[00:16:51] Italy. At El Prat airport, the documentation of almost
[00:16:54] seventy travelers from third countries was checked on two
[00:16:58] flights from Italy. The Spanish government says that
[00:17:01] these inspections will be intensified and will be maintained until
[00:17:04] at least September 7. Spain has, therefore, implemented the same measure
[00:17:07] that the Milani government took last week, after seeing the
[00:17:11] images of thousands of immigrants entering Ceuta.
[00:17:15] Passengers calmly leaving through the
[00:17:18] arrivals area has been the
[00:17:21] usual trend throughout the day at El Prat airport. The random
[00:17:25] controls announced by the Spanish government have been testimonial
[00:17:28] and in the vast majority of flights from Italy there have been
[00:17:31] none.
[00:18:10] In zone B of T2, all flights that arrive from the Schengen area
[00:18:14] the police do not have facilities to carry out passport controls. For this reason, they have
[00:18:18] checked the documentation of passengers at the foot of the plane at the exit of the
[00:18:21] gangways that connect with the terminal. In practice, the diplomatic
[00:18:25] shock between Spain and Italy does not currently have real effects, neither have
[00:18:29] long queues formed, nor have there been notable incidents. The Spanish
[00:18:32] government will extend the measure until September 7 and Italy
[00:18:35] is also not willing to review controls until August 15.
[00:18:39] Miquel Save, TV3, El Prat
[00:18:41] Airport.
[00:18:44] For now, then, a standoff between Italy and Spain continues, with little
[00:18:47] incidence, as we have seen, at the borders, but yes in the relations
[00:18:51] between the two countries. Meloni first tightened the rope by closing the Schengen
[00:18:54] area with Spain and Sánchez took a week, but finally,
[00:18:58] he also decided to pull the rope returning with the same
[00:19:01] coin.
[00:19:04] And to a certain extent, Spain's reaction is understandable.
[00:19:07] it wouldn't make sense for the Spanish government to stand idly by,
[00:19:11] simply doing nothing, that doesn't mean that Pedro Sánchez cannot
[00:19:15] try to gain political advantage from this diplomatic clash, from this
[00:19:19] situation because it allows him on the one hand to establish
[00:19:22] or reaffirm himself as this great reference, great progressive
[00:19:25] left-wing leader in the world and very especially in
[00:19:29] Europe, our home, it also allows him, with an eye to the
[00:19:33] general elections next year, to point the way, to show what
[00:19:36] an hypothetical government of PP and Vox could be like, which is one of George Meloni's
[00:19:40] great allies, and, finally, it also allows Pedro
[00:19:44] Sánchez to recover the political agenda
[00:19:47] after a few months, let's remember, marked by corruption
[00:19:50] scandals.
[00:19:54] Sánchez profits and reaffirms himself as a progressive leader.
[00:19:57] Meloni, on the other hand, takes advantage of the migratory crisis in Ceuta to reinforce
[00:20:01] her discourse against immigration, a political standoff that
[00:20:04] comes at a delicate moment for the Italian prime minister, with the far
[00:20:08] right gaining ground.
[00:20:11] On Wednesday, the Spanish government sent a private request to the Italian government.
[00:20:15] The Ceuta crisis is over and it's time for you to lift the restrictions on the Schengen
[00:20:18] area and the controls on passengers from
[00:20:21] Spain. Milani's executive had two options: to heed
[00:20:25] the request of a close ally and give in to Pedro Sánchez
[00:20:28] or to ignore the request and worsen tensions with
[00:20:32] a government that, he says, promotes irregular immigration. According to the
[00:20:36] Italian press, there was... division in the coalition executive and in the end the supporters of the
[00:20:39] hard line advocated by Meloni prevailed, the official argument that
[00:20:43] no other European partner has bought is that there may be
[00:20:46] new waves of terrorist risks. Italy says it will not give in to
[00:20:50] ultimatums or threats. For
[00:20:53] Meloni, the crisis would be an opportunity to remind Europe and her
[00:20:56] voters of her anti-immigration profile. Just when
[00:20:59] she has elections next year, a new far-right party has emerged, led by
[00:21:02] this former general who is starting to chip away at her votes. However,
[00:21:06] the gamble has its risks, suspending European free movement in this way damages
[00:21:10] the image of a pragmatic leader that she has earned in Brussels, and by prolonging
[00:21:14] the crisis, it harms the hundreds of thousands of Italians who live
[00:21:18] in Spain and who are now exposed to police controls. The
[00:21:21] question is who will give in and lift the border
[00:21:25] restrictions first, Rome or Madrid.
[00:21:28] And meanwhile, in Ceuta, hundreds
[00:21:32] of immigrants continue in the streets,
[00:21:36] waiting for their administrative situation in Spain to be resolved. Humanitarian
[00:21:39] aid organizations like the Red Cross cover their basic
[00:21:43] needs, such as food and medical care. For the president of the
[00:21:46] city, Juan Jesús Vives, the massive entry of migrants
[00:21:50] has caused an unsustainable situation. He insists that the
[00:21:53] solution lies in the return of these people to
[00:21:56] Morocco. The national government must
[00:22:00] resolve it immediately. And the
[00:22:03] city government considers that this
[00:22:05] solution can only be given
[00:22:09] by the return to Morocco of
[00:22:12] all those who entered Ceuta and remain in our
[00:22:16] city. The only way out is Morocco.
[00:22:20] through the Tarajal
[00:22:21] border.
[00:22:27] Civil Protection has issued a warning for violent weather for tonight that mainly affects
[00:22:31] La Noguera and neighboring regions, storms that during the
[00:22:35] afternoon have been moving from west to east towards the eastern
[00:22:39] Pyrenees and in some cases are of strong intensity. In
[00:22:42] addition, they are accompanied by hail and strong gusts of wind. So far,
[00:22:45] 112 has received more than 120 calls due to the heavy rains that
[00:22:49] have concentrated especially in the pre-Pyrenees area and the
[00:22:53] firefighters have received about thirty warnings for the storm, mostly for fallen
[00:22:57] trees.
[00:23:01] Well, still talking about storms, those that occurred on Thursday in the Mont-rebei gorge
[00:23:05] are the cause of a rockfall that has damaged the Montfalcó
[00:23:09] walkways, which has led to the closure of this route in the
[00:23:13] western strip, which is one of the main attractions of this
[00:23:16] area. They could be closed for the rest of the season and
[00:23:20] there have been the first cancellations of
[00:23:22] reservations.
[00:23:24] When hikers arrive at the access path to the Mont-rebei gorge through the
[00:23:28] Montfalcó walkways, they find this sign warning them that the
[00:23:31] path is closed. Tourists like this Belgian family
[00:23:35] are very disappointed. We came precisely to do this
[00:23:39] walk and this precise
[00:23:40] path.
[00:23:50] Oh, total bummer, right? Yes. On Thursday, a storm caused
[00:23:54] a rockslide that damaged the walkways. Each
[00:23:57] year, about 100,000 people visit the Mont-rebei gorge,
[00:24:00] and 40,000 enter the gorge through Montfalcó. The
[00:24:04] tourism office of Viacamp is receiving many requests
[00:24:07] for information. The Montfalcó and Jurjil ladders
[00:24:10] are closed. The Montfalcó ladders are very popular,
[00:24:14] and then many people with the connection to the Mont-rebei gorge
[00:24:18] love to do this whole excursion, and seeing
[00:24:21] that they cannot access it, it has ruined their excursion.
[00:24:25] The closure is already causing cancellations of
[00:24:29] reservations.
[00:24:30] For this reason, active tourism companies
[00:24:38] and hoteliers are asking
[00:24:42] that the walkways be repaired as soon as possible. Contact the
[00:24:46] region here of La Ribagorça, which is the one that manages the walkway.
[00:24:50] for next week there are some technicians who will come to evaluate
[00:24:53] this and, well, we are in August and it is complicated
[00:24:56] no, but well we will try to make it as
[00:25:00] fast as possible. Everything indicates that the walkways will be
[00:25:03] closed for the remainder of the tourist season. Alex Doro,
[00:25:07] TV3, Montfauco.
[00:25:11] And in Castellón, the situation of the forest fires in the Serra
[00:25:15] d'Engalcerán is improving, the confinement that had been established as a
[00:25:18] preventive measure has already been lifted. 91 displaced people have been able to
[00:25:22] return home. The Culla fire is under control, but in
[00:25:26] Tirig, efforts continue to stabilize its
[00:25:29] evolution. The first investigations indicate that the fires
[00:25:33] would have started due to lightning from a dry
[00:25:35] storm.
[00:25:40] Meanwhile, in Huelva, the Niebla forest fire continues out of control, affecting
[00:25:43] some 4 hectares and maintaining a wide deployment of
[00:25:47] land and air resources. The fire has forced the evacuation of more than
[00:25:51] 300 people for now the firefighters cannot declare the
[00:25:54] flames controlled, during the night new fronts have opened, the situation
[00:25:58] continues to be complicated on the ground due to constant changes. of
[00:26:02] the wind.
[00:26:06] The group Bejenc Juriol has turned the pain into a song
[00:26:09] due to the 2022 fires at Pont de
[00:26:12] Vilumara, where more than 1,700 hectares burned. In the middle
[00:26:15] of fire season, the song with a video clip wants to
[00:26:19] pay tribute to the firefighters and call for
[00:26:22] prevention.
[00:26:27] We wait for memories, you have
[00:26:29] painted the flowers of ash.
[00:26:34] a tender song that Clara Oliveres, leader of the rock band
[00:26:38] Juriol, especially moves her. The song was born from a
[00:26:41] very sad place and a very tragic experience, but it is
[00:26:44] true that it has become a message of gratitude to the
[00:26:47] firefighters. Her partner is a firefighter and in July
[00:26:50] 2022, when the Pont de Vilumara fire broke out, she
[00:26:54] was on duty putting out another fire, she could hardly imagine that the
[00:26:57] flames would advance so quickly until they surrounded the Les Brucardes
[00:27:01] urbanization of...
[00:27:04] We have a firefighter application where you see where we are located, when I saw that they were inside the
[00:27:08] garden of the house I thought ok, eh this
[00:27:11] is not going well, the fire has entered the house, we'll see what
[00:27:15] happens, it was the only house in the urbanization that burned down
[00:27:18] to ashes, the smell, the smell of ashes impacted me a lot, the word ashes
[00:27:22] was born precisely because it kept coming to my mind,
[00:27:25] that's how the song was born, which the group has now re-released
[00:27:29] acoustically, we have made
[00:27:34] it has been the most difficult emotionally, but the easiest
[00:27:38] and fastest to write, it's normal that what was once a
[00:27:41] fire, well, that we could not manage in a certain way, now they are
[00:27:44] monsters, no, they are monsters that devour us and that go at a
[00:27:48] speed that we cannot catch up with, rebuilding
[00:27:52] a life is not done in a year or two, we have to think that my mother left with what
[00:27:56] she had on, it seems that the scar is closed, and
[00:27:59] my goodness, no, and when summer comes. eh, the
[00:28:03] family's nerves are noticeable, right? It's, oh, well, this summer
[00:28:07] what, how, how, how do you have it no, how
[00:28:09] will it go?
[00:28:19] Tired of a tourism that they can no longer cope with, hundreds of people have
[00:28:23] taken to the streets in Soller to denounce the tourist pressure in the Balearic Islands,
[00:28:27] under the slogan Soller to the limit, the residents denounce feeling
[00:28:30] abandoned by the administrations, and demand
[00:28:33] measures to curb a situation that they consider
[00:28:35] unsustainable.
[00:28:38] Different messages, but with the same underlying idea, the fight
[00:28:42] against mass tourism. Sóller has about
[00:28:45] 14,000 inhabitants, in summer it can triple the
[00:28:48] population. A pressure that, according to the residents, is felt in many
[00:28:52] areas, also in businesses. Caviures' shop,
[00:28:55] La Lluna, for example, has been converted into a
[00:28:58] espadrille shop. And the old cinema El Cácer is now a
[00:29:01] five-star hotel. They complain that businesses are geared towards
[00:29:05] tourism and that the town is becoming a
[00:29:08] set, investing in housing so that
[00:29:11] people can live on our island
[00:29:14] also, well, basically reducing
[00:29:17] all the space that tourism currently has, I
[00:29:21] feel very abandoned by the institutions because the institutions
[00:29:24] do not want to regulate housing or
[00:29:28] public services, that is, they have already increased the frequency of
[00:29:31] buses. of buses but it's not enough.
[00:29:35] Soller is one of the most touristically tense municipalities and to
[00:29:38] get there there is only one road that becomes
[00:29:41] a bottleneck. It connects the
[00:29:45] the island, it is often collapsed. You have to be aware of
[00:29:48] whether it rains or not to know if you will have a collapse and instead of taking half an hour with
[00:29:52] palm trees, you will take an hour and a half. And this generates a lot of uncertainty. A
[00:29:55] massification that not only transforms streets and businesses, it also
[00:29:59] alters the customs of those who live, in a population that... every year
[00:30:02] receives more than 200,000 visitors.
[00:30:31] The passengers who arrived from... From Italy, at El Prat airport, encountered
[00:30:34] few, almost testimonial controls. The national
[00:30:37] police requested identity documents on some planes just after
[00:30:41] disembarking.
[00:30:47] The Congost de Mont-rebei is closed on the border side due to a
[00:30:50] rockfall that has forced the closure of the walkways and it is
[00:30:54] expected that it will not be able to reopen during the whole summer. There are already
[00:30:57] cancellations of reservations.
