00:00:00intentional malice, it is recalled that the crime fighting directorate had
00:00:03found a multitude of deficiencies and technical
00:00:06problems that essentially caused the initial sparks of the fire.
00:00:09In closing, let us note that the third defendant
00:00:13appeared yesterday before the investigator, we are talking about the owner of the wind farm, who, when
00:00:17he was sought, was on
00:00:19vacation outside Attica. This person is expected
00:00:23to testify tomorrow before the investigator. Thank you,
00:00:26George. On a political level, the
00:00:29water level of the confrontation over the
00:00:32devastating fires remains high, with the handling of their management,
00:00:35compensation, and prevention measures as key issues.
00:00:39The government is racing against time to complete the damage assessment
00:00:43and to pay compensation as soon as possible to
00:00:46those affected by the fires. Today, we will have 11 teams. The
00:00:50recording for the first German started yesterday, due to the conditions that
00:00:53prevailed in the area, in all other fires
00:00:57which we were called to deal with in the previous period.
00:01:01From the moment we receive the request from the municipality, which request will
00:01:05be complete and correctly drawn up and
00:01:08correctly and correctly drawn up, within 10 days the money will have gone
00:01:11to the municipality. The issue of prevention is the spearhead of
00:01:14criticism from the opposition. So that we
00:01:18don't keep talking about the irresponsible officials of the
00:01:21government, what has been done is important. What has
00:01:24been done is the recovery fund. You were wrong about the
00:01:27timelines, the schedule.
00:01:30led to this summer,
00:01:33at least, the Canadairs not being operational. Will
00:01:37someone be held accountable for this? Equipment problems, maintenance, the
00:01:40problems of firefighters often come to the fore through their own
00:01:44significant struggles, radical
00:01:47changes are needed. The exclusion of Canadairs and other flight assets from
00:01:51the Recovery Fund. We have today submitted
00:01:54a parliamentary question, a parliamentary control question to the Prime Minister, society
00:01:58demands serious. and clear words, the
00:02:01government cannot celebrate and present as a success the fact that
00:02:05fewer acres were burned. Stelios Petsas
00:02:09on Sky television reiterated his proposal for mandatory
00:02:12universal insurance. No matter how much support there is from the
00:02:16government, afterwards, many times it is not
00:02:19enough, and I have proposed that there be universal, mandatory
00:02:23insurance for everything, for homes,
00:02:27for businesses, and for agricultural holdings.
00:02:31extreme weather phenomena, heatwaves and drought
00:02:34are testing many European countries. Signs of the times
00:02:38inextricably linked to the climate crisis that fuels
00:02:41fires, drying up rivers and lakes with devastating
00:02:45consequences for the environment and the
00:02:47economy. in red alert and
00:02:5127 major cities of Italy from north to
00:02:54south, with the fourth heatwave of the summer putting
00:02:58the country back in the oven.
00:03:10Already in two cases in Naples, the thermometer showed
00:03:1348°C and the authorities are urging locals and
00:03:16tourists to avoid sun exposure and to stay in
00:03:20cool places as from the prolonged high
00:03:23temperatures for public
00:03:26health.
00:03:32Italian media are reporting three deaths due to heat in the last
00:03:3524 hours.
00:03:38Tourists are looking for a breath of fresh air in
00:03:40Warsaw as well.
00:03:47has lot of weather just like this this time of the year so we thought we would escape that weather
00:03:51coming here but we did not a lot of
00:03:53humidity
00:03:57like like Poland is besieged by... a crisis that
00:04:14has caused prolonged drought.
00:04:31The authorities decided to turn off the decorative and unnecessary lights
00:04:34in all public buildings due to the historically low levels of the Danube
00:04:38and the underperformance of the country's nuclear power plant that
00:04:42uses the river for
00:04:43cooling.
00:04:53And the extreme heat continues today. The
00:04:55thermometer is expected to show 42
00:04:59cm. The signing of the
00:05:03agreement for the entry of the French
00:05:05Meridia into the project gives a huge boost to the
00:05:08Greece-Cyprus electricity interconnection. In another milestone development that further
00:05:12strengthens our country's position on the global energy
00:05:16map. After the very short circuit, the Greece-Cyprus
00:05:19electricity interconnection cable is now connected to the French socket
00:05:23of Meriniam so that the GSI can acquire the necessary
00:05:26momentum.
00:05:29The participation of the European giant, according to government officials and analysts, not
00:05:32only brings new capital. It secures know-how,
00:05:36and at the same time sends a message that the cable remains a strategic priority for
00:05:40Europe, while for Athens the agreement also constitutes an answer to
00:05:43those who doubted the viability of the project. We are thus proceeding with the
00:05:47creation of an energy
00:05:49interconnection in the Eastern Mediterranean, which at this
00:05:53moment, after the crisis we have in the Middle East and the Gulf of
00:05:57Hormuz, acquires an increased geopolitical
00:06:00importance for all of Europe. This also answers those who had
00:06:03second thoughts about whether the project is right, whether the project works, whether the project is worth
00:06:07pursuing.
00:06:10Within two months. The geopolitical cast around the
00:06:14project was broken. The first step was taken with Macron's visit to Athens last
00:06:18April, with the presence of Meridian's head,
00:06:21Tierido. This was followed in May by crucial, under-the-radar contacts
00:06:24of the Minister of Environment with the leading
00:06:27executives of the investment giant who put the French key
00:06:31in the door of the GSI. There is also a defense agreement which we recently
00:06:35renewed with France. Article 2 of which
00:06:38states that France will assist Greece in case
00:06:41our sovereignty is questioned. I mean, there is a strategic relationship with the French here.
00:06:45On the other hand, according to
00:06:48experts, the creation of an energy highway in the Eastern
00:06:52Mediterranean is evident, in which Greece is a central
00:06:56station, both with the vertical natural gas corridor and with the Greece-Egypt
00:07:00electricity interconnection cable. What does all this together mean? That the project
00:07:04is safe. The arrival of MRIDM essentially
00:07:07accelerates the process, facilitates without a doubt
00:07:11leverage and... which are important for us to be able to
00:07:14proceed and constitutes a significant economic and technical
00:07:18development which will push the project many steps
00:07:21forward. The basic estimate sets the milestone of
00:07:24resuming investigations in the coming
00:07:26September.
00:07:30In the Middle East, the diplomatic thriller surrounding the
00:07:34status of the Strait of Hormuz is escalating, with Iran speaking of an
00:07:37imminent agreement with Oman and the situation, however, surrounding the
00:07:41role of the United
00:08:04The spokesman of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs criticizes the United
00:08:08States, emphasizing that the announcements are nearing, provided
00:08:11that third parties are involved. A
00:08:29new maritime corridor that will be used for at least two
00:08:33to four months. Large parts of the route will pass through
00:08:36the territorial waters of Iran and some others through the territorial waters of
00:08:40Oman. In any case, it is emphasized that the
00:08:43agreement will not lead to an automatic opening of the strait, nor
00:08:47does it alone guarantee the safety of
00:08:48navigation.
00:08:57With traffic in the Strait of Hormuz proceeding at a snail's pace, the achievement
00:09:01of an agreement is of pivotal importance. The big
00:09:04question is whether transit fees will be imposed,
00:09:07which is a red flag for the United States, with the American
00:09:10president launching new attacks.
00:09:42in an alliance against Iran's nuclear
00:09:45ambitions, but I want to convey also
00:09:48that, the existence of Israel is not
00:09:52subject to negotiation, with or without an agreement.
00:09:56At the same time, after a month
00:09:59of calm, Tel Aviv launched new attacks in southern Lebanon,
00:10:03accusing Hezbollah of violating the
00:10:05ceasefire. An alarm has been raised in
00:10:09Germany after the discovery of a drone at
00:10:13the strategically important and for NATO, Leipzig airport, Dimitra Kyranoudi, with the
00:10:16interior minister speaking of a
00:10:20hybrid attack scenario.
00:10:24Hello from.
00:10:29which now establishes a new
00:10:32threat situation which is no longer
00:10:36abstract but specific. This was said yesterday
00:10:39from Leipzig by the German Interior Minister Alexander ter Prien, who
00:10:43interrupted his vacation to travel to Leipzig
00:10:46and assess the situation with officials from the German
00:10:50secret services. So he talks openly about a hybrid
00:10:53attack. against the state
00:10:56security of Germany, which was even carried out with absolute
00:11:00professionalism and, as he said characteristically,
00:11:02differs from all previous cases of drone sightings
00:11:06in Germany. In fact,
00:11:09he stressed that this case is a
00:11:13unique case precisely because this particular drone for
00:11:16the first time carried an explosive mechanism and
00:11:20explosive substances and only by chance did it not
00:11:23explode. Similar are the assessments of the
00:11:27competent authorities of the prosecutor's office, the
00:11:30anti-terrorism unit that has taken over the
00:11:34case, while we should note that Alexander
00:11:37Doprin spoke of possible involvement
00:11:40of hostile forces from abroad. At this moment,
00:11:44all possibilities are being investigated, the possibility
00:11:46of sabotage, in critical infrastructure,
00:11:50even terrorist, terrorist acts. Marco, let's
00:11:53also note that. according to official data from the
00:11:57German Air Traffic Authority, since the beginning of
00:12:002026, over 1440
00:12:04drone sightings have been recorded in Germany over airports.
00:12:07Dimitra, as announced today, the arrest
00:12:11of a 33-year-old Ukrainian for espionage was carried out by the
00:12:14German authorities.
00:12:17And all this happened in Thurgau. The
00:12:2033-year-old Ukrainian citizen is accused of
00:12:23espionage and... sabotage against a
00:12:26Bavarian defense
00:12:30industry. In fact, the German authorities say that
00:12:33he is possibly a Ukrainian
00:12:42complex Marfin case, ladies and gentlemen. 16 years
00:12:46after the tragedy that shocked the country
00:12:49today, Panagiotis Spyropoulos, the 46-year-old woman accused of
00:12:53involvement in the murderous arson attack
00:12:57is expected to be extradited to our country from Britain. The
00:13:0046-year-old Marco with the blonde braid, the woman who allegedly
00:13:04participated in the deadly five-member group of perpetrators of the murderous attack on
00:13:07Marfin, is being extradited to our country and arrives today at 10:30 PM
00:13:11in Greece. A team from the Organized Crime Directorate had traveled
00:13:15to Great Britain and is essentially transferring the accused to our
00:13:18country. She will be held at the General Police Directorate of Attica and on Friday morning
00:13:22she will be taken first to the public prosecutor for the execution of the warrant and then
00:13:26to the investigator to perhaps be granted a deadline to testify. The
00:13:3046-year-old Marko is one of two women who were part of the attack
00:13:33team and, according to statements by bank employees, she was shouting at her
00:13:37accomplices to burn them. On July 10, the
00:13:4024-year-old was apprehended, while an international arrest warrant was issued for the
00:13:4446-year-old. On July 13, she was apprehended at
00:13:47London's Gatwick Airport where she was working, with the activation of the Interpol
00:13:51Red Notice, appearing then in Westminster Court. In order
00:13:55for her Red Notice for her extradition to Greece not to be
00:13:59executed, she accepted the request of the Greek police authorities for
00:14:03her extradition, and even signed a letter in which she committed
00:14:14British woman, whose body was found in a suitcase in
00:14:17Kypseli, has received extensive coverage in the British media, with the
00:14:2026-year-old Afghan accused testifying.
00:14:23Accompanied by police, the
00:14:2626-year-old accused of the murder of British woman
00:14:30Elizabeth Jane Ross is being taken to the Evelpidon courts for his
00:14:34testimony. The man from Afghanistan continues to deny the
00:14:37accusations against him, sticking to what he had claimed to the
00:14:41police. When I turned on the lights and headed towards the
00:14:45bathroom, I noticed that Lisa was lying on the bathroom
00:14:48floor and something like water was coming out of her mouth. I
00:14:52spoke to her two or three times, but she didn't answer.
00:14:55"I froze, my legs gave out." This video of the
00:14:5926-year-old carrying the British woman's body in a suitcase
00:15:02is expected to be part of the investigation. The accused
00:15:06claims that an unknown elderly man advised him to
00:15:09hide the lifeless body. In my panic, I immediately
00:15:13left the house and stopped an old man I found in front of
00:15:16me at a bus stop and asked him, "What do I do if I have
00:15:20a dead person in my house?" He told me that
00:15:23he worked at a hospital and knew about these things, and that what I
00:15:27needed to do was remove it from my house, otherwise I would
00:15:30get into trouble.
00:15:34All major British television networks continue their coverage.
00:16:08and in the shocking case of the 55-year-old who kept
00:16:12his father's body in a freezer, Eleni
00:16:15Paraskevopoulou, the authorities are trying to shed light
00:16:18on all the dark aspects of this case and around the
00:16:22exact causes of the elderly man's
00:16:30short time, the results of the forensic examination. Let's
00:16:33say that we expected that because the
00:16:36body of the 99-year-old man was in deep
00:16:40freezing, we understand that it is a process that takes
00:16:43time in order to reach and have some results from the
00:16:47forensic examination. On Friday, the 55-year-old
00:16:51son is expected to be tried in flagrante delicto and from there on we can say
00:16:55that he himself is expected to claim that
00:16:58he could not part with his father. We spoke with his lawyer
00:17:02and he told us that he himself is distraught, he now understands
00:17:06what exactly he had done, what action he has taken,
00:17:09he is a psychological wreck and
00:17:13what he says is that he simply could not part with his father. Regarding
00:17:16the reports that existed from the very beginning that no one
00:17:20saw his 99-year-old father, he claims that the
00:17:2490-year-old had dementia to the last degree and that's how he could
00:17:28not go out because there was a danger to his own
00:17:31life. From there on, later today, as I mentioned,
00:17:34we will have more news regarding... the cause
00:17:38of death of the 90-year-old man as his
00:17:4155-year-old son has said that he died of
00:17:44pathological causes and then decided to put him in
00:17:47the professional
00:17:56were at the center of a meeting, George
00:17:59Papakonstantinou, of the competent government committee under the
00:18:02Prime Minister. Kyriakos Mitsotakis set as a goal
00:18:06Marco the attraction of up to.
00:18:09from the new competitiveness fund, while at the same time
00:18:12he placed at the forefront of government priorities, of the
00:18:15program, that is, with which New Democracy will seek a third term, the
00:18:19strengthening of manufacturing, the
00:18:22basic lines of which will be presented at the Thessaloniki International Fair. For his
00:18:26part, the Minister of Development, Mr. Takis Theodorikakos,
00:18:29announced seven interventions to simplify procedures for
00:18:33industry, focusing on productive investments of up to 3.7%
00:18:38and a new package of 700 million for reducing
00:18:48resilience in the European framework. Athens,
00:18:52Chrysostomos Tsoufis, submitted the request to the Commission for
00:18:56the activation of the escape clause. For the extension
00:18:59of the activation of the escape clause beyond defense spending
00:19:03to energy spending for strengthening the
00:19:06resilience of. our country, as you said, and the
00:19:09acceleration of the decoupling from fossil fuels. What does all this mean?
00:19:13That one billion energy investments that the government
00:19:17has in the pipeline until 2028 will not
00:19:20be counted in the expenditures that the
00:19:23Commission's fiscal rules allow us to make each year. However, it will
00:19:27be counted in the fiscal
00:19:30result, as well as in the debt. For the type of these
00:19:33expenditures, we know so far that it will involve projects.
00:19:38energy, energy saving, energy
00:19:42upgrade projects for buildings, and also new infrastructure. All of these will be specified in the coming
00:19:46period by the competent ministers and will also be
00:19:49part of the Prime Minister's
00:19:58reform of the primary sector, focusing, Giannis Kantelis, on the
00:20:02war against the deep state cartels, at the presentation of the new
00:20:05platform for agricultural subsidies. Yes, it is the
00:20:09my agro platform, which operates through the AADE. In this
00:20:13way, with the platform developed by the public sector itself and the independent
00:20:16public revenue authority, farmers and livestock breeders will
00:20:20be able to submit their applications directly and these
00:20:23will go directly to the beneficiaries, the money, and not
00:20:27to various unscrupulous individuals who were revealed through the scandal of the
00:20:30OPKPE. Mr. Mitsotakis was briefed on the
00:20:34operation of the new platform, he talked with
00:20:37the. organizations of farmers and agricultural engineers
00:20:40and livestock breeders in order to implement any improvements
00:20:44needed. However, it is indicative of the improvement of conditions, as
00:20:48emphasized by the reliability of the new
00:20:51system, that for the first time, Marco, all applications
00:20:55submitted by September 15 will have their advance payment
00:20:58paid by October 30,
00:21:01while subsequently by November 30, all
00:21:05other
00:21:12longer be held captive by the deep state
00:21:16cartels, by clientelism, by old party politics. All these ultimately
00:21:20harm the vast majority of honest
00:21:24farmers, honest livestock farmers, who now see, with the
00:21:27payments that were made, that they are entitled to
00:21:30more money than what they received in the past, quite simply,
00:21:34because resources are being reallocated which were saved from those who
00:21:38were not entitled to
00:21:41those resources
00:21:43in the first place.
00:21:47In Arta, an alarm was raised at the fire department.
00:21:52In the early hours of the morning, successive explosions occurred at an electrical substation, Christos
00:21:55Stratoulakos, with many areas plunged into
00:21:58darkness.
00:22:01It was a hellish night, Marco, for Arta, as shortly after
00:22:04midnight, there was a fire at the super-high voltage center in the
00:22:08area of Grammema in Arta. An
00:22:12alarm was sounded at the fire department. As we can see, Marco, in the images, the fire
00:22:16spread very quickly due to the flammable materials that
00:22:20were in that specific area. There were also several
00:22:23explosions when the firefighting forces were operating at the
00:22:26scene. After a considerable amount of time, the firefighters, mainly with
00:22:29the first light of day, managed to bring the fire under control.
00:22:33However, from the moment, Marco, the explosion occurred, many
00:22:36areas in the low-lying parts of Arta, as well as the city of Arta,
00:22:40and the mountainous villages, were left without
00:22:44electricity. Even at this moment we are speaking, efforts are being made to
00:22:47restore electricity. In
00:22:50some mountainous villages of the Arta prefecture, at the same time, Marco, there is an
00:22:54ongoing investigation into what caused the
00:22:57explosion and the fire at the specific substation, with the damage, according to the
00:23:01first estimates, amounting to several thousands and
00:23:10planet, as 81 years have passed,
00:23:13Louisa Akrotiri, since the dropping of the first atomic
00:23:17bomb on Hiroshima. Approximately 50
00:23:20participants from 123 countries and regions,
00:23:23including survivors of the atomic bomb, observed a minute of
00:23:27silence in Hiroshima's Peace Park when the peace
00:23:30bell rang at exactly 8:4 AM, the time
00:23:33that 81 years ago an American B-29
00:23:37dropped the bomb code-named Little Boy on the city.
00:23:41The Mayor of Hiroshima criticized world leaders for waging
00:23:44wars, urging them not to justify the possession of nuclear
00:23:48weapons as a means of deterrence. The ceremony was also attended by the Prime Minister of
00:23:52Japan, Sana Kayechi, who pledged to take
00:23:55realistic, practical initiatives for a world without
00:24:06detailed images ever recorded from
00:24:10the sun's surface, have been obtained by scientists,
00:24:13using the world's most powerful solar
00:24:16telescope. Images and videos, Marco, reveal for the
00:24:20first time in exquisite detail the activity on the
00:24:23sun's surface. What we see is the sun's magnetic field
00:24:27which is moved by the movement of hot
00:24:30gases. This continuous rotational movement
00:24:34is one of the main causes of energy eruptions on the sun,
00:24:38creating what is known as space weather, which can cause
00:24:41problems with power grids and Earth's satellites, and
00:24:45may even endanger astronauts. Scientists
00:24:48consider it very... as
00:24:52we are now able to understand and better protect ourselves from
