00:00:19The government of Seuta warns that it cannot comply with the law for the reception of
00:00:23minors who arrived a week ago. The PP is making
00:00:26efforts in the face of Vox's opposition to any distribution
00:00:29demanded. The appearance of four ministers, NGOs, and
00:00:33social entities demand that political parties leave this humanitarian
00:00:36drama aside from the political squabble.
00:00:38An alert has been activated for heavy rains this
00:00:41afternoon in much of the
00:00:45country, up to 40 liters can fall in just half an
00:00:48hour. Today, then, we have all the ingredients for new
00:00:51widespread thunderstorms in
00:00:55Catalonia. In Sanet l'Alta Ribagorsa,
00:00:58the rain has helped to... stabilize the fire that has been burning since
00:01:01Friday.
00:01:05Firefighters demand more protection against toxic substances from
00:01:08fires. They denounce that the masks provided by the government are
00:01:12insufficient.
00:01:15Right now we are paying out of our own pocket for this
00:01:17closed practically since equipment. Residents of a block in the
00:01:21Trinitat Vella neighborhood of Barcelona have been evacuated due to vibrations caused by the
00:01:25undergrounding works in Montcada. In Girona, today they also
00:01:28evacuated twenty people who lived in the old
00:01:31Simon factory.
00:02:31Good afternoon, Ceuta acknowledges that it will not be able to meet the
00:02:3415-day deadline set by law to distribute the unaccompanied minors who arrived
00:02:38last week, they believe it will take months to complete all the
00:02:41procedures because they cannot cope, NGOs and social entities call
00:02:45not to use minors in the political squabble over their
00:02:48distribution among the autonomous communities, and despite the pressure
00:02:53And after the landslide due to the R2 works in the Vallbona neighborhood in of some parties against reception, the law is very clear:
00:02:57the effort to receive is there but the situation... exceeds many
00:03:01minors are still on the street wandering and the administration
00:03:04has not yet been able to identify them, who helps with
00:03:07the cap are the NGOs,
00:03:10hitherto unknown risks of to assist them and
00:03:13try to
00:03:15continue.
00:03:19they note who they are to inform the reception services, because
00:03:22locating and assisting them immediately is the first mandatory
00:03:26step by law. From there, in situations of extraordinary
00:03:30migratory contingency, which is how Ceuta is, they must be
00:03:33transferred to the rest of the autonomous communities within a
00:03:3715-day period, a deadline that sources from the Ceuta
00:03:40government warn they will not be able to meet, they believe it will take
00:03:44months. There is no law that resists, which means
00:03:47an avalanche. If it's not 15 days, it's a breach of the
00:03:51law, it's a violation of rights towards these minors due to a
00:03:55lack of political will, because resources
00:03:58are available. It also establishes which autonomous
00:04:02communities are in the best conditions to receive, it is
00:04:05calculated mathematically and according to the same
00:04:08criteria, such as population, per capita income
00:04:12and the unemployment rate. The reception capacity is also taken into
00:04:15account, as well as the effort that each community has made
00:04:18previously to attend to unaccompanied minors. In fact, for
00:04:22this reason and as compensation, last year Catalonia was left out
00:04:28territory, an initiative of of the distribution during the arrivals in the Canary Islands. to
00:04:30make a calculation of the grandmother's account, so to speak, and whoever has less
00:04:34should receive. The one that opens all this political debate and questions
00:04:37whether we should receive them or not,
00:04:42to leave the building. The Girona City eh, is already questioning these fundamental rights. The ones that worry most
00:04:45are underage girls, they are at higher risk of suffering
00:04:48violence and falling into trafficking networks.
00:04:51Regarding
00:04:54this distribution of minors, the PP assures that it will comply with the
00:04:57law, but the last government agreements that... were made with Vox in four communities,
00:05:01it was signed that no more unaccompanied minors would be received. Mano
00:05:05Alonso, this crisis in Ceuta will put these
00:05:07agreements to the test.
00:05:12Yes, exactly. A complicated position for the Popular Party,
00:05:15who on the one hand say, as you recall,
00:05:18that the Popular Party always complies with the law, and on the other hand, they have to
00:05:22appease Vox, with whom they govern in four autonomous
00:05:25communities. Vox has already said that it will boycott any
00:05:29transfer and that they have agreed with the Popular Party that where
00:05:31they govern, no more migrant minors will
00:05:35arrive. Vox thus marks the PP's pace once
00:05:39again, but despite the current controversy, the fact is that more than
00:05:421,700 migrant minors have been transferred from
00:05:46Ceuta, Melilla, and the Canary Islands to the rest of the
00:05:49peninsula, the rest of the autonomous communities, without any
00:05:53problem since the reform of the immigration law was
00:05:56implemented. Meanwhile, the Spanish government
00:05:59accuses the PP of being unsupportive due to its
00:06:03constant yielding to the far-right, and on the other
00:06:06hand, points out that the only possible path is
00:06:10compliance with the law and the.
00:06:13eh that a few days ago they requested the extraordinary appearance of Pedro
00:06:16Sánchez in Congress, now they extend this request for explanations from
00:06:20four ministers, the Minister of Interior, the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
00:06:24the Minister of Defense, and also the Minister of the Presidency for this
00:06:27August.
00:06:29The Popular Party is condemned to balance, on the one hand, to
00:06:33appease the communities receiving migrants, such as Ceuta and the Balearic Islands, who
00:06:36met this morning in Palma before the reception of
00:06:40Felipe, the President of the.
00:07:12The government agreements of the last few months between PP and
00:07:15Vox are already at stake in Extremadura, Aragon, Castile and Leon, and
00:07:19Andalusia. They have points in common, some almost identical, such
00:07:22as those referring to the reception of unaccompanied
00:07:25foreign minors, a frontal rejection of the central government's
00:07:29immigration policy. Only in Andalusia is there an addition that
00:07:33speaks of the need to respect the legal framework, the current
00:07:37legislation will be complied with and the Popular Party always,
00:07:40always complies with the law.
00:07:54the breakup two years ago when the far-right left the government in five
00:07:58autonomous communities after the PP accepted the distribution
00:08:01of minors from
00:08:03the Canary Islands.
00:08:10It has already started to rain at this hour, especially in the Pyrenees in places like
00:08:14Vallter, the Ripollès is clearly visible here on the camera, also in Pallar
00:08:18Subirà, there have already been the first precipitations, in the Ebro
00:08:21it has also rained and it will rain again, and that is why these
00:08:25threatening clouds are seen announcing that the storm
00:08:27is coming. Civil Protection has activated an alert for
00:08:31heavy rains this afternoon and until dawn more than
00:08:3540 liters per square meter can accumulate in just half an hour in practically all of
00:08:38Catalonia and in some places even exceed 90 liters in three
00:08:42hours. The warning map foresees a first wave of intense
00:08:45rains until 6 p.m. in Central Catalonia, in the
00:08:49Pyrenees, the eastern pre-Pyrenees, in the Tarragona area and on the pre-coast. And
00:08:53towards the evening, the storms will move further
00:08:56south. Today, then, we have all the
00:09:00ingredients, eh, for new widespread thunderstorms in
00:09:03Catalonia, high
00:09:06intensities. Some of them, at certain times, could have a certain
00:09:10staticity, that's why these degrees of danger are so high, but for now we don't
00:09:14foresee them remaining static for many hours in the same
00:09:17sector, we ask for this vigilance with outdoor activities because today is
00:09:21a day that we will have to be attentive to showers, to storms and as the
00:09:25meteorology service colleagues told us, don't rule out that at some point there could be
00:09:28violent weather, there could be hail, there could be gusts of wind, there could be
00:09:43Well, look, it will last until this coming night, until 12, but
00:09:46it will be by zones because now we have a very active zone of showers and
00:09:50storms affecting the Pyrenees as we can see on the radar,
00:09:54these precipitation traces with some red cores, it means that some rain
00:09:57is intense, we have also had another episode of showers in the
00:10:01Ebro lands, this one is diminishing, but well, all this will
00:10:04reactivate and throughout the afternoon, the evolution is that
00:10:07this chain of showers and storms located over the Pyrenees
00:10:11will go down. south, affecting regions of
00:10:14Girona, then Barcelona, as we can see on the forecast map,
00:10:18there will be storms, lightning in many places and later in the
00:10:22afternoon they will also reach the regions of Tarragona again. a shower in
00:10:25Lleida, unlike recent days, showers can also reach the central
00:10:29coast, we are talking about intense rains
00:10:32that in a short time can leave large amounts of rain, winds in
00:10:36some cases also large hail and some
00:10:40storms that are what worry us most could advance slowly and have
00:10:44time to leave large amounts of
00:10:51firefighters to stabilize the fire in Sanet l'Alta Ribagorsa.
00:10:55It had been active since last Friday and had burned about 100 hectares of forest
00:10:58in an area near the Aigüestortes National Park. Yesterday, the improvement in
00:11:02weather conditions allowed the restriction on access for
00:11:05hikers to be lifted. Firefighters are still working there, especially with
00:11:09helicopters due to the difficulty of access by
00:11:11land.
00:11:16When extinguishing fires, firefighters are exposed to toxic particles that can
00:11:20cause significant health problems. Faced with this risk,
00:11:24they complain that they lack more specific protective
00:11:28equipment that can effectively filter these particles.
00:11:31Fire is not the only danger for firefighters. So are gases
00:11:35and toxic particles, some of which are carcinogenic, that are
00:11:38generated in forest and urban fires. In fact, the
00:11:42International Agency for Research on Cancer of the WHO classifies
00:11:46firefighters' work in the group of maximum exposure
00:11:49risk. That is why the Firefighters' Assembly has been
00:11:52demanding for years to extreme prevention
00:11:55measures. As firefighters, we assume this exposure, it is
00:11:58part of our job and here the most we can do is
00:12:02protect ourselves as much as possible and here there are different things that
00:12:06are not being done well enough, a very clear one is the
00:12:09masks that we use in
00:12:11forest fires, the service provides us with masks that
00:12:15are FFP3 that filter particles, however
00:12:19we would like to use some that are
00:12:22half masks that have filters for gases. also for particles, not
00:12:26all gases, right now we are paying for this equipment out of our own pocket.
00:12:30After the fire, toxic particles remain
00:12:33adhered to the firefighters' PPE. And these contaminants, when we get into the truck,
00:12:36go into the truck and from the truck they go into the fire stations and from the fire stations even to our
00:12:40homes. And the goal is for PPE and other elements not to
00:12:43reach the fire stations because they are not prepared to carry out
00:12:46decontamination there. Since June, the Firefighters' Assembly has
00:12:50launched several pressure measures, such as
00:12:53not doing voluntary overtime, all
00:12:57important emergencies, we will
00:13:00attend to them, we are obliged and we also believe that we must
00:13:04uh, comply with them, we have never doubted them, but everything that is
00:13:07voluntary hours, voluntary overtime, we have refused
00:13:11to do. They demand from the General Directorate determination to address the
00:13:15problem. It is a Pandora's box that if the General Directorate has not opened it is
00:13:18because it is really very complex to address, it requires
00:13:22attitude and tenacity to address it. Something that
00:13:25so far we have not found. To respond to these demands, the
00:13:29General Directorate of Firefighters will present the contaminant
00:13:32plan in September. For now, it has already bought more than 9,000 heavy
00:13:36PPEs. And this massive purchase is the largest purchase ever
00:13:40made by the Generalitat of Catalonia in terms of PPE, it has been a tender of
00:13:43almost 19 million euros, with the aim
00:13:46that they can have a double heavy PPE and guarantee
00:13:50the necessary change and that this does not hinder
00:13:53this operational service. Regarding masks, they explain that
00:13:57occupational risks has commissioned a new evaluation
00:14:00study to see if half masks should be incorporated and purchased.
00:14:04The heat waves in Europe have led the
00:14:06continent to an unprecedented drought. In
00:14:10fact, the lack of rain has left rivers like the Danube and the Rhine at
00:14:14historic lows in flow. This already has economic effects and raises questions about the
00:14:18future of energy generation
00:14:20systems.
00:14:22This sign planted in the dry bed of a river that reads "no fishing" may
00:14:26seem like something from a British gag, but it's not. In the
00:14:29collective imagination, the grass in the United Kingdom should
00:14:32be green, but after the driest and hottest July since records
00:14:36began 190 years ago, the landscape in much
00:14:39of England and Wales is this. It is the third
00:14:42drought in five years and they already predict that the cereal harvest will also
00:14:46be the worst since records began in
00:14:491984. The lack of water affects much of
00:14:52Europe. In France, the Meuse River is so low that it cannot cool the
00:14:56nuclear power plant in Chooz in the northeast of the country, they have had to shut it down
00:15:00while the Cattenom plant, cooled by the Moselle, has also had to shut down
00:15:04a reactor, a situation that had already occurred in Hungary with the Paks
00:15:08plant, shut down by 90%. In
00:15:11Romania, the Cernavodă plant has required the drastic measure of causing
00:15:15explosions in the Danube to divert more water flow to the
00:15:18plant. And if nuclear power plants are vulnerable to the effects of
00:15:21climate change, so is hydroelectric generation. The
00:15:25Iron Gate power plant, operated jointly by Romania and Serbia,
00:15:28can only generate 20% of its capacity.
00:15:32This generalized low level of rivers is an economic problem that affects not only
00:15:36agriculture, the... generation of energy, but also fluvial
00:15:39transport, both for goods and
00:15:41tourism.
00:15:45we just lack, we have lack of the river of the of the
00:15:48rainfalls, and we when i said when we have rainfalls, they are
00:15:52mostly stormy, so short, quickly, and rapid,
00:15:56so we need like couple of days,
00:15:59norm, uh, casual
00:16:03rain, several governments practice lighting restrictions
00:16:06and have requested industries and citizens to make an effort to reduce
00:16:10electricity consumption, but this happens precisely at a time when extreme heat
00:16:14generates more demand for refrigeration and air
00:16:16conditioners.
00:16:19In the Middle East, Iran and Oman have agreed on a new maritime route through
00:16:23the Strait of Hormuz where ships will pay a fee to
00:16:26pass through.
00:16:28Iran assures that it has reached an agreement with Oman for navigation in
00:16:32the Strait of Hormuz, an agreement that is being finalized and
00:16:36that depends on the United States unblocking
00:16:39Iranian ports, although Tehran has not given details, its objective
00:16:42would be to charge from 5 to 7% of the value of the cargo of
00:16:46the vessels for what it calls transit services, Oman for its
00:16:50part demands 3%. The Strait has been
00:16:54the beginning of the war five months ago, in recent days a
00:16:58dozen oil tankers have passed through on average every day when
00:17:02before up to 140
00:17:03circulated.
00:17:06of Interior has called the discovery last
00:17:10Tuesday night of a drone with explosives at Leipzig airport,
00:17:14near a Ukrainian cargo plane that, according to some witnesses, was carrying
00:17:17ammunition, a hybrid attack. The drone's detonator
00:17:20did not work, but the airport had to close for two hours.
00:17:24A hybrid attack is understood as a combination of means to destabilize a
00:17:28country. The government does not rule out the involvement of foreign
00:17:32powers, without naming Russia, it has said that it is a new
00:17:35dimension of threat.
00:17:39It's the moment when a Russian drone falls on a merchant ship in the Black Sea near
00:17:42the Ukrainian city of Odessa. Russia announced
00:17:45having intercepted 600 Ukrainian drones over its territory
00:17:49tonight, although the remains that fell have caused damage
00:17:53in another center of the e-commerce giant Wild
00:17:56Berries, houses, and cars. Zelensky announced
00:18:00having attacked two refineries 1,300 and 700 km
00:18:03from the front in a campaign of long-range attacks.
00:18:08New alert for the risks of artificial intelligence.
00:18:12In cybersecurity tests, Entropic and OpenAI models
00:18:16tried to deceive real people to try to access the systems of an
00:18:20external company. The British Institute of Security warns that it is the first
00:18:24time it has detected such behavior with the risks that this
00:18:27entails. Create a false identity and manipulate
00:18:31the workers of an external company to try to infiltrate
00:18:34the computer system. This is what two Entropic
00:18:38and OpenAI models tried to do, prohibited and harmful actions for real
00:18:42people and organizations that reveal the potential and
00:18:47artificial intelligence. The risks, as we said at the beginning, are
00:18:51there, they are very competent tools, which, if used for
00:18:54good, can help us a lot, and if used for evil, they can do a lot of harm. This does not mean that they want
00:18:58to deceive people, it means that they have found that the
00:19:01best way to achieve their objectives, in this
00:19:05case to do harm, is through these people, just as it is through a
00:19:09security hole in an operating system or by using an
00:19:13anonymous browser. Experts argue that these tests
00:19:16explored the limits of these models' capabilities, but they
00:19:20reduce the alarmism by arguing that the security filters had been
00:19:23suppressed. If you use the cloud, the latest versions,
00:19:27eh, are as capable as these models, but if you ask it to commit
00:19:31mischief or cyberattacks, it won't let you, because there are safeguards
00:19:34that prevent it from doing
00:19:38so. These models that security agencies test do not have these safeguards and
00:19:41therefore they can reach, they can reach the
00:19:45limits of the model in their destructive capabilities.
00:19:49The experiment did not cause any real damage, but it did shift the focus of the
00:19:53concern, no longer just worrying about what people can do with
00:19:56artificial intelligence, but what these systems can do when
00:20:00they act with more autonomy.
00:20:04Donald Trump's trade war is also taking a toll on his
00:20:07government. In February, the Supreme Court invalidated a significant part of
00:20:11his tariffs, so companies can claim a refund of the amount
00:20:15paid and so far it is estimated that the US
00:20:18government has already had to refund 100 billion
00:20:21dollars. Since April last year, US
00:20:25tariffs have changed exactly 50
00:20:28times. The first wave brought customs brokers like
00:20:32this to their knees.
00:20:37and in the morning we come and we have to update our system, this
00:20:41import paid
00:20:4217,517
00:20:45in tariffs, more bureaucracy and added costs and for
00:20:48consumers higher prices, a Harvard
00:20:52University study concluded that companies passed on tariffs
00:20:55to suppliers and customers, who paid more for their
00:20:59purchases. Last February, the Supreme Court ruled
00:21:02that the bulk of the tariffs that Donald Trump had announced were illegal and that
00:21:06the amount collected at customs
00:21:07should be returned.
00:21:11As of today, the US government has already returned 100 billion
00:21:14dollars, two-thirds of the total it owes. Technically, those
00:21:18who have the right to claim are importers, the companies that paid
00:21:21customs to bring goods into the country, but the money they
00:21:25recover will also be shared with their customers, in most
00:21:29cases the answer is no. Apple would have recovered about
00:21:322.2 billion dollars and says it will reinvest them in
00:21:35factories in the United States. Amazon, which has collected 600
00:21:39million, says it will return the money in specific cases. Nike and
00:21:43Ford will recover 1 million each. And Japanese
00:21:46multinationals, such as Sony or Nintendo, have also taken a
00:21:50good chunk that will help them balance their accounts. Given that it is the
00:21:53United States, civil lawsuits have multiplied and many consumers have already
00:21:57gone to court to claim their
00:21:59share.
00:22:07Marc Puig Tió has resigned as the Republican Left of Catalonia candidate for
00:22:10the mayoralty of Girona. The decision comes after the leaked
00:22:14audio recordings in which he explained that he wanted to clean up the local leadership of the
00:22:17party.
00:22:20I made a mistake and I believe that in politics when you make a mistake,
00:22:23what you have to do is be honest with yourself and step
00:22:26aside. Esquerra has been left without a candidate for the mayoralty of
00:22:30Girona. Marc Puigtió has resigned
00:22:33after a telephone conversation with an influencer linked to the far-
00:22:36right was published this week, in which he explained his plans to remove his party
00:22:40colleagues whom he criticized. I spoke with the wrong
00:22:43person. But well, the video is edited,
00:22:46it's made, eh. taken out of
00:22:50context of time and form, but it is there, therefore
00:22:54my words are there, that is, I believe that I must assume it. Puigtió's candidacy was
00:22:58first endorsed by the national leadership of the party and then by the
00:23:01Girona membership, after controversial primaries that he won by one
00:23:05vote. Esquerra admits that now a new stage opens to
00:23:09appoint another candidate for the elections in
00:23:12May.
00:23:14The case of Silvia Orriols' daughter has reached the Anti-Fraud Office.
00:23:18This institution has opened an investigation into the mayor of Ripoll for
00:23:22alleged irregularities in the hiring of the girl as a local police
00:23:25officer, according to Europapress, anti-fraud has started an
00:23:29investigation following a complaint. Orriols denies having
00:23:32influenced her daughter's competition, Junts per Catalunya
00:23:36accuses her of lack of institutional
00:23:38integrity.
00:23:43Barcelona. This morning,
00:23:47residents of a block in the
00:23:59eighty residents, including minors, were evacuated through this
00:24:02door and had to wait while Barcelona firefighters checked
00:24:06the viability of their building, this after they had
00:24:09noticed strong vibrations that had
00:24:12scared them. Two hours later, fortunately, the firefighters assured that there
00:24:16were no structural problems and they were able to return home. The reason
00:24:20is a compacting machine that is doing work for Adif right next door
00:24:24and that at this time continues to be out of service for
00:24:27safety. This, they say, has not been the first time it has happened, but
00:24:31residents say it's the one that has
00:24:33scared them the most.
00:24:36The whole floor started to shake, and well,
00:24:39the air conditioner started to
00:24:42shake, and the doors were shaking
00:24:45too. I warned my husband
00:24:49and my children. Then I called by phone and they told me that we
00:24:53had to leave the building, calm down because the tremor we had yesterday
00:24:56caused pictures to fall, mirrors fell,
00:25:00the house door was vibrating, the sofas,
00:25:03it was a very acute tremor.
00:25:07In Girona this morning, around twenty people who were living in poor conditions
00:25:10in the old Simón Factory on Barcelona Street, at the southern entrance of the
00:25:14city, have been evicted. The idea is that the building will be rehabilitated to build a new
00:25:18institute. After months of uncertainty about when
00:25:22they would finally be evicted, the twenty people, mostly
00:25:25irregular migrants, who were still living in poor conditions and spending their nights
00:25:29in the old Simon warehouse, have had
00:25:32Council states that social services have been monitoring them for months to try to find
00:25:36them shelter, but for now they have only promised that they will not spend this night
00:25:40sleeping rough. Social services have been going
00:25:44there every week periodically for two months, case
00:25:48by case, to see the circumstances of each person. In some cases, there
00:25:51were people in the past who had applied for asylum, and also
00:25:55people who were in the process of regularization, and therefore this has
00:25:58allowed us to find solutions for these people and their
00:26:02needs. For some organizations that have accompanied and advised the
00:26:05squatters, however, action has been taken late and poorly. For years, people have been living
00:26:09here, people living in conditions
00:26:12of absolute misery. So what do they
00:26:15mean by social services monitoring? Coming to make a visit to
00:26:19see what, but not to return, not to say anything, and on the day of the
00:26:22eviction, to come and still take data to assess if there are
00:26:26options? The eviction was necessary so that the city council
00:26:29could recover the building and then hand it over to the department of
00:26:33education, which will be responsible for carrying out the project to build the future
00:26:36Armacenda institute. For now, today work has already begun to remove the
00:26:40accumulated rubbish and to board up the building, thus avoiding new
00:26:50the fraud of a travel agency in L'Escala is increasing. The
00:26:53complaints filed have tripled and are now
00:26:5590.
00:26:57No trip to Bali, nor to New York, nor to Japan, which is the trip that
00:27:01Lídia had booked with Mescapo Viatges. In February, she
00:27:04paid €12,000 and after much insistence, the agent's WhatsApp
00:27:08response, just five days before she was due to fly, was
00:27:11blunt. And she told me that her license had been revoked, that because
00:27:15her license had been revoked, all my things had been canceled. And that
00:27:19she had no trip. Paula had planned to go to Eurodisney with her
00:27:23family in December. The only thing she received from the agency was this pre-
00:27:26reservation, but neither the tour operators nor the amusement park can confirm
00:27:30that anything has been paid. say anything, we have no way
00:27:34of finding out about this. Some family members who are now traveling
00:27:37were also traveling in September to Disney and managed
00:27:41to get the wholesaler to explain something to them and they have been told
00:27:44that they haven't paid for anything, that it is
00:27:47reserved but they haven't paid for anything. But there are many more cases, there
00:27:50is a WhatsApp group with more than 450 affected people
00:27:54and the Mossos have already received up to 90 complaints. It seemed
00:27:57that it was only in L'Escala, Girona, some other towns in
00:28:01Empordà. But the thing has already spread throughout Catalonia and there are even
00:28:05people from outside Catalonia, so this also makes
00:28:09the whole issue of the investigation for the alleged
00:28:12fraud case more complicated because this would surely
00:28:16pass to the central investigating court, the national
00:28:19the agency was not registered for economic activities, nor did
00:28:23she have the obligatory insurance to carry out her activity, which
00:28:27could complicate the refund of money to the
00:28:29affected parties.
00:28:32Three young people have been arrested, one of them a minor, accused of robbery and sexually
00:28:36assaulting a girl, also a minor, in a summer camp house in
00:28:39Palamós. According to the girl, at the end of June the young people entered
00:28:43the house and one of them touched her while she was sleeping. And they
00:28:47went two consecutive nights. The first night they allegedly stole mobile phones from the
00:28:51minors in the house. The next night the assault
00:28:54allegedly took place.
00:28:57The captain of the boat involved in the fatal accident of a
00:29:01man who was riding a jet ski in Poriabrava has been arrested. The collision
00:29:05happened yesterday afternoon when the jet ski and the recreational boat
00:29:09collided. According to the victim's son, the boat with 10
00:29:12occupants would have run over them and fled. The civil guard
00:29:16arrested the captain when he returned the boat to the rental
00:29:20company. Maritime rescue teams provided first aid to the
00:29:24jet ski rider and then transferred him to the port of Roses where an
00:29:28ambulance was waiting for him. Despite attempts to resuscitate him, he
00:29:31died.
00:29:35And three people have been arrested and a fourth is being investigated
00:29:39for sabotaging a train track in Bages. The events occurred
00:29:43in April during protests against a mining company in
00:29:46Súria. According to the investigation, the alleged perpetrators would have
00:29:49damaged about 300 meters of track and cut a
00:29:53fiber optic cable. These events left more than
00:29:574,000 residents of Súria and Cardona without internet connection. The damage
00:30:00has been valued at almost.
00:30:08And today we will also explain the debate that exists around the wine crisis, the decrease
00:30:12in consumption, the sector is considering pulling up vineyards.
00:30:15We will also show you the highest resolution images ever captured
00:30:19of the visible
00:30:40In the Bages plain, they have just recovered a very old and native grape variety
00:30:44of the region, the Malvasia
00:30:47Blanca-roja that will allow them to produce white wines. The vines
00:30:51were located on a property in Nevas and after years of research, they will now
00:30:55begin to be cultivated. It is the first ancestral variety of this
00:30:58appellation that takes the step...
