00:00:07Good afternoon, on behalf of the entire technical production team, we extend a warm
00:00:11welcome to a new edition of Telesur Noticias. Next, our
00:00:15headlines.
00:00:18The Chilean Congress rejected a proposal by far-right
00:00:22parties to suspend the Karim Law, key
00:00:26legislation to eradicate workplace harassment, violence, and sexual
00:00:30harassment.
00:00:35With the aim of strengthening resistance against imperialist
00:00:38aggression in the Global South, delegates from across Latin America and the
00:00:42Caribbean are meeting in
00:00:44Cuba.
00:00:50Iran denounced that the United States violated the memorandum of
00:00:53understanding and demands an investigation by Pakistan
00:00:57into these actions.
00:01:08I am Andrea Romero, I will be accompanying you. The parties promoting the
00:01:11freeze argued an alleged saturation in the
00:01:15administrative system. In response to this, legislators from various
00:01:19political tendencies dismissed this
00:01:22argument to prioritize the labor rights of
00:01:25citizens. Various parliamentarians maintained that
00:01:28the more than 66,000 complaints registered since
00:01:32the promulgation of the law in 2024
00:01:34highlight a problem historically hidden in the labor
00:01:38sphere of Chile. Likewise, the Senate Steering
00:01:41Committee proposed improving the
00:01:44current regulations of the law instead of
00:01:47leaving the integrity of workers
00:01:49unprotected.
00:01:54In the city of Cali, Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella assumed the presidency of
00:01:58the Republic, reiterating his policy of
00:02:01foreign subordination after announcing Colombia's incorporation
00:02:05into the Shield of the Americas. During his
00:02:08speech this Friday, De la Espriella
00:02:11justified Colombia's integration
00:02:14assembly of ALBA Movements in into the US initiative to
00:02:17inhabitants of this community. We are going to speak with combat groups that threaten the stability of nations. However,
00:02:22processes, no, what experts warn that the White House's plan is a step towards foreign
00:02:25interference that threatens the
00:02:28even going so far as to sovereignty of countries in the region. He also promised a firm hand
00:02:32against criminal gangs, the construction of megaprison,
00:02:36harsher sentences, and reduced public spending.
00:02:40In this way, Colombians receive a new
00:02:43government with disagreements with the outgoing administration of Gustavo Petro,
00:02:47announcements of direct internal confrontation, and incorporation into
00:02:51Washington's
00:02:53Modo. This is in doctrines.
00:02:57One of my first acts of government upon concluding this ceremony
00:03:00will be to sign the Shield of the
00:03:03Americas, an initiative that
00:03:06will allow us to unite capabilities,
00:03:09share strategic information, and
00:03:12strengthen the joint action of free
00:03:16due to the difficulty of nations against the threats
00:03:19that affect national
00:03:22attacks against various areas in and regional security. No
00:03:25state can defeat alone structures that
00:03:28operate at...
00:03:31Without presenting evidence or referring to ongoing
00:03:34investigations, he blamed Gustavo Petro's
00:03:37government for the assassination of Miguel Uribe Turbay,
00:03:40taking an accusation of that caliber into his presidential
00:03:44inauguration. I pay a heartfelt
00:03:48tribute to the memory of Miguel
00:03:51Uribe Turbay, assassinated
00:03:54by the interlocutors of the
00:03:57regime who, thank God, today.
00:04:01In the coming hours, my government
00:04:04will issue the list of narcoterrorist
00:04:07groups with the purpose of
00:04:11providing our glorious public force with
00:04:15effective instruments for the frontal
00:04:18combat of crime. The
00:04:22option of dialogue is completely
00:04:28to begin what exhausted.
00:04:34rescue, the rebirth of
00:04:47The acting president of Venezuela, Delsy Rodríguez, launched
00:04:51a financing plan aimed at merchants and entrepreneurs
00:04:55in La Guaira State who were affected by the double earthquake on
00:04:58June 24th. This is part of an integral program
00:05:02for economic reactivation with a social and
00:05:05productive focus. More than 22 local economic actors
00:05:08remain active in the territory to revitalize
00:05:12commercial activity and recover the pulse of the
00:05:15entity. Future projections aim to strengthen
00:05:19soft credit, expand technical assistance, and
00:05:23consolidate community supply chains,
00:05:26prioritizing small and medium popular industry.
00:05:30It should be noted that this initiative, deployed
00:05:32despite external financial siege and sanctions,
00:05:36vindicates the role of the state as guarantor of collective well-being,
00:05:40rebuilding the economic fabric from the ground up, laying
00:05:43the foundation for a sustained recovery with
00:05:46social justice and productive sovereignty for the people of the
00:05:50coastal
00:05:51entity.
00:05:55Many Venezuelans lost
00:05:58family members but did not stay
00:06:02away from the rubble. Many Venezuelans
00:06:05lost their homes and are still
00:06:08smiling. I say this because
00:06:12I have to receive many international delegations
00:06:16who have been very attentive since the very beginning
00:06:20of the double earthquake
00:06:22and there is something they tell me that fills me with pride as
00:06:26a Venezuelan
00:06:28and they tell me
00:06:30we are very impressed by your people, we are very
00:06:34impressed by the smile of your people, we are very
00:06:38impressed by the generosity
00:06:41and kindness of your people
00:06:44that we came to help and they want to help us.
00:06:48The Venezuela Rises plan is moving forward with the objective of
00:06:51prioritizing assistance to those affected after the
00:06:54earthquakes on June 24th, from La Guaira, Luis
00:06:57Tavera gives us more details.
00:07:00I greet you and the audience
00:07:05watching Telesur. We remain in the
00:07:08coastal state of La Guaira, on the central coast of Venezuela,
00:07:11where the Venezuela Rises plan and state
00:07:15policies are advancing to prioritize assistance for those
00:07:19affected after the double seismic event of last
00:07:22June 24th. Here in the Caravalleda parish,
00:07:26a day of action is also being held to assist the
00:07:29the Secretary of Social Protection of this entity, who will give us an overview of what
00:07:33is happening today. Well, yes, we are
00:07:36here in the parish, specifically
00:07:40within the framework of the
00:07:42great plan that has been made for addressing those
00:07:46communities that were not affected by the earthquake. Here in this
00:07:49place, in the central area of the Caravalleda parish, we are concluding
00:07:53the 28 days that have been carried out
00:07:57within the framework of this plan throughout the week.
00:08:01More than 10,000 families have been assisted, and this day does not only
00:08:05bring food, it also comes
00:08:07with health care, social
00:08:11protection, care for the elderly,
00:08:14recreation, sports, and above all,
00:08:17especially for our grandparents. This has truly been a master plan
00:08:21that was designed for communities, as I said, that were not
00:08:25affected during the earthquake, and which now total 10,000
00:08:28families assisted during this week, in the
00:08:3111 parishes. We provided
00:08:35care and were present in the communities
00:08:39of Cerro Arriba, deep in the neighborhood.
00:08:43they did not suffer any damage from the
00:08:46earthquake on June 24. May I repeat your name, Pedro
00:08:50Rodríguez? Thank you very much, Mr. Pedro.
00:08:53Well, we also want to share with you through the Telesur
00:08:56screens, well, how this day is progressing, which also
00:08:59includes this access that the inhabitants of this
00:09:03parish have to food, meats, chickens
00:09:07at solidarity prices.
00:09:09The inhabitants of this community have expressed
00:09:13that these types of activities also somewhat heal
00:09:17the scars that the inhabitants of the coastal state have, the most
00:09:20affected after the double earthquake of last
00:09:23June 24th. This community, this street where this
00:09:26activity is being held, well, is called the real street of
00:09:30this parish. It also has many businesses that we have
00:09:34seen have started their commercial
00:09:38activity
00:09:40the national government has called the
00:09:46La Guaira, the Venezuela Rises plan. The national government has also
00:09:50underlined that among the many objectives it has for both
00:09:53assisting those affected by the double
00:09:56earthquake and also the areas that were not as affected, but nevertheless have
00:10:00these kinds of events that also help with
00:10:03comprehensive assistance within communities. We, of course,
00:10:07will remain very attentive to what happens today in this entity.
00:10:11I'll be back with you.
00:10:13Thanks to our colleague Luis Tavera, we change the panorama and with the objective
00:10:17of strengthening resistance against imperialist aggressions in the
00:10:21Global South, delegates from all Latin America and the Caribbean meet in
00:10:25Cuba. Belén de los Santos tells us the details of this
00:10:28meeting of social
00:10:29movements:
00:10:33what unites the struggles of Cuba, Brazil, Venezuela, or
00:10:36Haiti? How is a common path built
00:10:39from different territories? This is the task that delegates from
00:10:4327 countries are facing in the Cuban capital.
00:10:47We start the day by making a historical review of
00:10:50our experiences of
00:10:53socialism, which is not
00:10:55just history, but is present and is our future and our
00:10:58references. One of the keys is to talk,
00:11:02listen to learn from the experience of others. From Cuba,
00:11:06the importance of building always close to the people is highlighted,
00:11:09a characteristic of Fidel. Among us there is
00:11:13a fundamental principle of Fidel that is communion with the
00:11:16people, which is not that the people fall for you, not that
00:11:19you understand the people's problem, but that you are capable of building with the people a
00:11:23project of liberation in which the people themselves
00:11:27build you, build themselves as a protagonist subject and
00:11:31change the reality they had to live. From the Caribbean also come
00:11:34the lessons of the Haitian revolution, still powerful to
00:11:38understand the present of the region, and a
00:11:41fundamental element of these constructions is the emergence of a
00:11:44counter-hegemonic culture, not based on a new
00:11:48language, Creole, in a new spirituality
00:11:52and in new forms of organizing work. This is how
00:11:56internationalism is built, highlighting historical and present practices
00:11:59that open an alternative centered on the well-being of
00:12:03the people. Socialism is not something, it is not a
00:12:06discourse, it is not a utopia, it is a
00:12:10necessity, but it is also a daily practice and
00:12:13that from the little we are doing in a settlement or in
00:12:17a camp, in the way of organizing, in the way of
00:12:21producing a different perspective from capitalism, also.
00:12:28In a context of imperialist advance against the region, the goal is
00:12:31to exchange experiences to strengthen joint strategies,
00:12:35that is what the fourth continental
00:12:39Havana is about. It is fundamental to create
00:12:42channels of exchange between revolutionary
00:12:47I call the pedagogy of revolutions
00:12:50to be able to nourish ourselves with all this
00:12:54richness. and to be able to advance against
00:12:57the challenges, the challenges of today, and today more than
00:13:01ever in our continent those processes need to come together in
00:13:05a necessary unity to build a necessary
00:13:08integration to stop an offensive that we are
00:13:12experiencing on the continent that is perhaps
00:13:15one of the worst of all times in our
00:13:17history. Belén de los Santos for Telesur from
00:13:21Havana, Cuba. Now, movements that have
00:13:25gathered in Havana these days 190
00:13:28delegates from 27 nations, also
00:13:31adds, thank you for being in Cuba and with Cuba,
00:13:35as the president said,
00:13:36let's see.
00:13:44Alert, alert, alert,
00:13:47the sword of Bolivar walks
00:13:51through Latin America.
00:14:02Among other news, the Pan American Health
00:14:06Organization issued an epidemiological alert for the countries of
00:14:10America with the aim of reinforcing vaccination against the
00:14:13measles outbreak and the increase in cases. The department
00:14:17warned that the African continent registers the highest number of measles
00:14:21cases in more than two decades after more than
00:14:2547,000 cases were confirmed in 16 countries in the
00:14:28region, with at least 44 deaths in three
00:14:31countries. According to reports, this year's figure represents
00:14:35triple the cases registered in 2025, where
00:14:3995% of the cases were confirmed in
00:14:42Guatemala, Mexico, United States, and Peru. The
00:14:46public health risk associated with measles is classified
00:14:49as high in America because some populations have
00:14:53limited access to health
00:14:56services.
00:15:05We take a break. More from Telesur Noticias when we return. Stay with us.
00:15:48We continue with more of Telesur Noticias: An extreme heatwave
00:15:52keeps 19 Italian cities on red alert and is expected
00:15:55to last at least another 10
00:15:59days. The Ministry of Health highlights that Italy will have
00:16:02an extremely hot weekend in several regions of the country.
00:16:05Emphasizing that the most
00:16:09affected area will be in the center and south of the peninsula. In turn,
00:16:13climate authorities report that the
00:16:15classification of affected cities may vary during
00:16:19the day, due to different changes such as in the
00:16:22Tuscany region that reached
00:16:2538°C. In northern Italy, the heatwave
00:16:29is expected to decrease with the arrival of colder air currents,
00:16:32while in central Yemen
00:16:36faces situations that paralyzed the streets of
00:16:39Sana'a and surrounding provinces due to
00:16:43torrential rains that also left hundreds of families
00:16:46affected. The floods submerged
00:16:49tunnels and bridges in the city of Sana'a, after the roads
00:16:53were flooded, dragging vehicles and
00:16:56paralyzing traffic in the north of the capital.
00:16:59Markets were also affected with the destruction of stalls
00:17:03and shops. More than 12 families lost their
00:17:06homes while the rains advanced on landmines
00:17:09and agricultural areas, increasing the risk for civilians.
00:17:12In addition, humanitarian organizations warn of a lack of funds and
00:17:16call for urgent support to address the emergency.
00:17:19India
00:17:31reports that the monsoon has raised the death toll to 136
00:17:35in several states, while the Meteorological
00:17:38Department issues new alerts for heavy
00:17:41rainfall, relief camps. Authorities
00:17:44report more than 27 displaced people
00:17:47in shelters and another 12
00:17:50deaths were registered due to lightning strikes during the
00:17:53storms. The meteorological event caused severe
00:17:56floods, landslides and dozens of
00:18:00fatalities in the Asian
00:18:02country.
00:18:25In Palestine, Israel intensifies its ground operations
00:18:28in Khan Yunis, while the Ministry of Health
00:18:32reported more than 73,000 deaths due to Israeli aggression
00:18:36since October 2021. Israeli forces also opened
00:18:40fire on the northern part of the Bureij refugee camp
00:18:43in the central Gaza Strip. Health authorities
00:18:46warned that several victims remain under the
00:18:50rubble and roads
00:18:53reaching the destroyed areas. The occupation continues its
00:18:59the Gaza Strip, in the context of the ongoing genocide
00:19:03despite the ceasefire agreement. Peace
00:19:06agreement, always provided that Israel first
00:19:09withdraws its military and ceases attacks.
00:19:12Hamas also demands that the US government intervene
00:19:16directly and pressure Israel to respect the
00:19:20commitments of the first phase of the plan. The Palestinian movement
00:19:23requested to accelerate the entry of the national committee for the
00:19:27administration and political, humanitarian, and
00:19:30reconstruction management of the Gaza Strip. In parallel, Israeli
00:19:33Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denies having
00:19:37approved the draft agreement, while on the ground
00:19:41distrust persists due to attacks that have left civilians
00:19:45killed and injured, despite the reduction in
00:19:48bombings.
00:19:57Iran denounced that the United States violated the memorandum of
00:20:01understanding, so these actions must be investigated
00:20:04by Pakistan. The Iranian Foreign Minister, Sarachi,
00:20:08affirmed that the Persian country was implementing Article
00:20:115 of the memorandum of understanding, where
00:20:14he highlighted that navigation through the Strait of Hormuz would return to
00:20:18normality within a month. Despite Tehran's
00:20:21warnings, US forces continue
00:20:24their efforts to delay the
00:20:27memorandum in the territory. Arachi described as
00:20:30unacceptable the US intentions to undermine Iranian
00:20:34management of the Strait of Hormuz.
00:20:45Iran's Revolutionary Guard declared that the reopening
00:20:49of the Strait of Hormuz depends on the United
00:20:52States accepting Tehran's demands. Iran
00:20:56conditioned the reopening of the maritime passage on the criteria and
00:20:59mechanisms established by the Persian government, among
00:21:03them, the cessation of US interference in regional
00:21:06affairs and ruled out that they are related to recent
00:21:10negotiations with Oman. Tehran highlighted
00:21:14that the Strait of Hormuz is not only a commercial route, but also
00:21:18represents a key component of geopolitical
00:21:21strategic influence, demonstrating its importance for global
00:21:24stability. In addition, the Revolutionary Guard
00:21:28emphasized that once Washington meets the
00:21:31conditions, there will be no obstacles to its
00:21:33reopening.
00:21:41Changing the subject, the Spanish government deployed more than 2,000 soldiers
00:21:45in Ceuta as a security measure against a possible
00:21:49new wave of immigrants due to a social media post.
00:21:52The Spanish executive detailed that among the troops
00:21:56are 300 riot police and
00:21:59200 soldiers to face the possible
00:22:02surge. The Ministry of Interior declared that there are
00:22:06threats of irregular entry due to a
00:22:08call circulated on social media to enter
00:22:12Ceuta between August 30 and 31. Given the
00:22:15situation, Italy suspended the Schengen area and
00:22:19France reinforced its border controls,
00:22:22while the European Union analyzes immediate security measures.
00:22:36Hundreds of Spanish citizens from Soller, Mallorca,
00:22:39took to the streets due to difficulties in accessing housing,
00:22:43defending local commerce, and demanding improvements
00:22:46in quality of life. At least 2,500
00:22:50people protested under the slogan, "We are a town,
00:22:54not an investment," to demand better access to
00:22:57housing, which was exacerbated by the proliferation of tourist
00:23:01rentals, real estate speculation, and excessively
00:23:04high prices. The historic center suffers a
00:23:08loss of cultural identity and local commerce
00:23:11after being displaced by businesses exclusively focused
00:23:14on foreign visitors,
00:23:18write flyers only in English. The
00:23:21mobilization was also joined by tourism workers such as
00:23:25waiters, hoteliers, and taxi drivers who declare
00:23:28themselves victims of the current
00:23:30economic model.
00:23:38The government of Côte d'Ivoire pardons more than 4,000 national
00:23:42anniversaries to grant judicial pardons and
00:23:46sentence reductions, protected by the National
00:23:49Constitution. The government urged the population to unite and
00:23:52actively collaborate for a more prosperous country.
00:24:05In Thailand, the death toll has risen to nine after
00:24:09a shooting at a high school in a province. The figures
00:24:13also register at least 23 injured people and 13 people
00:24:17remain hospitalized after the
00:24:20events. Despite the efforts of doctors, a 12-year-old
00:24:23student died in the hospital due to serious
00:24:27injuries sustained. A 14-year-old teenager started
00:24:31a shooting at a school, causing the death of several
00:24:34people, where five of them were teachers. In turn,
00:24:38authorities also report that the
00:24:41teenager, before heading to the
00:24:44institution, also shot his
00:24:46grandparents.
00:24:55Russia reported five injured after a fire at a
00:24:58refinery caused by a Ukrainian drone attack.
00:25:01According to reports, the fire was caused by
00:25:05fragments of Ukrainian drones launched
00:25:08against southern Russia. The attack caused no fatalities,
00:25:11but did cause injuries, who are in a health center
00:25:15receiving the necessary assistance. Authorities
00:25:18announced that security services continue
00:25:22to work in the area to determine the damage and preliminary
00:25:26causes.
