00:00:31A strong aftershock in Colombia of magnitude 7.4 causes more
00:00:34than a hundred deaths. It is
00:00:38three days after Belardo de a very provisional balance because there are dozens of missing people. President
00:00:41Espriella has declared a state
00:00:43of emergency.
00:00:47The earthquake has affected cities like Pereira and Cali in the middle of the so-called
00:00:51Coffee Axis, which is a very visited area by tourists. There is no
00:00:55record of Catalans
00:00:57magical story, the magical affected.
00:01:01Italy and Denmark request migrant repatriation centers outside the European
00:01:05Union. Morocco wants unaccompanied minors
00:01:09to return to their families, a measure with which the
00:01:12Spanish government
00:01:13is also working.
00:01:17The plan to promote renewable energies in Catalonia receives more than 12,000
00:01:20allegations. There are more than 300 municipalities that want it
00:01:24revised. The Generalitat says that it will accept technically
00:01:27viable proposals. It will happen.
00:02:28of Baix Ebre, some showers may arrive from
00:02:39our eyes. But in the case of
00:02:43Good evening, how are you? The extent of the consequences of the
00:02:47earthquake that affected Colombia is not yet known. The information that has arrived so far indicates more
00:02:51than a hundred people dead and dozens of buildings
00:02:54collapsed. The most affected region is the one closest
00:02:58to the Pacific Ocean with cities like Cali and Pereira, and the
00:03:01earthquake occurred at 7:30 in the morning local time with the epicenter
00:03:05in San José del Palmar, this is 250 km
00:03:09west of Bogotá and with a magnitude of this earthquake of
00:03:127.4 degrees. And we see scenes again that
00:03:15recall what happened in Venezuela with rescue teams working
00:03:19against the clock to search for survivors among the
00:03:22rubble. Dozens of buildings did not
00:03:26withstand the force and duration of the earthquake in Colombia.
00:03:31awaiting the This one in Pereira collapsed after
00:03:33more than three minutes of shaking, at 7:30 in the morning.
00:03:37The most affected area has been the center of the country, Aleix Cafeter,
00:03:41tourists who are not obliged where some churches have also been seriously damaged, such as that of San
00:03:44Josep de la Ciutat, which lost one of its main towers.
00:03:48Scenes of chaos and confusion in the streets of those who managed to leave the
00:03:52buildings, among a population accustomed to tremors, but not
00:03:55of this magnitude. Moments of panic also at the international airport.
00:04:07precaution is little to enjoy the of Manizales, the same region, where the mayor asked residents to stay in the
00:04:11open air while waiting for the aftershocks that arrived
00:04:14later.
00:04:20in Cali, one of the main cities of Colombia, the dust clouds
00:04:24showed the number of structures that also did not
00:04:27resist.
00:04:3020 structures collapsed in Cali with people
00:04:33trapped. I have requested support from the
00:04:36mayor of Bogotá and the mayor of
00:04:39missing people, the president of Medellín with rescuers. The epicenter of the 7.4
00:04:41magnitude earthquake was in the town of San José de
00:04:44Palmar, the poor and sparsely populated province of Chocó on the
00:04:48Pacific. The origin was at more than 80
00:04:52km deep, in an area of contact between tectonic
00:04:55faults. It is considered the most powerful earthquake of the
00:04:58last 10 years. We report today at
00:05:027:34 in the morning an earthquake of magnitude
00:05:067.4 with a depth of
00:05:10the strongest earthquake felt.
00:05:14Rescue efforts began immediately, also by people
00:05:17searching for survivors under the rubble. The earthquake was felt
00:05:20in much of central and western Colombia, although in many
00:05:24cities there was no damage, such as the capital, Bogotá. It was also
00:05:27felt in Ecuador, Panama and Venezuela, where a month
00:05:31and a half ago, a double earthquake of a magnitude only one tenth
00:05:34higher than today's in Colombia left more than 6,000
00:05:38dead.
00:05:43With all this, the Colombian government has declared a national emergency to deal
00:05:47with this catastrophe, only
00:05:50l'Espriella took office as president, information from Joan
00:05:54Viosca.
00:05:56Right now, the main problem that rescue teams face is reaching
00:06:00the affected area, as the seven main airports in
00:06:03the central zone of Colombia, known as the Cauca Valley
00:06:07and Leix Cafeter, are affected with structural damage and do not
00:06:10receive flights, cities impacted by the 7.4
00:06:14magnitude earthquake such as Cali, Pereira, and Manizales.
00:06:18The mayor, for example, of Pereira, has decreed a curfew
00:06:21to clear streets and facilitate the arrival of military
00:06:24and rescue emergency teams. The
00:06:27earthquake caught the president of Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella, on what
00:06:31was supposed to be his first working day of government
00:06:34management. He assumed office as head of state of the South American country
00:06:37last Friday, and the first thing he did was to declare a national state
00:06:41of emergency to try to... use the maximum amount
00:06:44of available resources to attend to the
00:06:47victims.
00:06:50You are not alone. Colombia has a president who
00:06:54cares about his people and will do everything in his
00:06:57power.
00:07:04The Spanish Consulate in Colombia is monitoring the earthquake and also the Spanish
00:07:07citizens who are in the country, both those who live there and those who have gone there for
00:07:11tourism. It is aware of the 7,800 Catalans who
00:07:14permanently reside in Colombia. Information from Josep
00:07:18Capella. Yes, as is usual in situations like
00:07:21this, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs enables and activates
00:07:25the consular emergency division, which
00:07:28coordinates all the information it receives from the embassy
00:07:32and also from the consulate, in this case from the honorary consulates,
00:07:35because the affected departments do not have Spanish professional diplomatic
00:07:39representation. There are contact telephone numbers for
00:07:43Spanish citizens in the area who can contact
00:07:47the consulate in Bogotá, and also an
00:07:50email address. With this device, the aim is to
00:07:53locate Spanish citizens who may be there, either living there
00:07:57or visiting as tourists. However, at the moment, the
00:08:00ministry has no record of affected Spanish
00:08:04citizens. In Colombia, there are
00:08:06about 80,000 Spaniards, and also
00:08:10some Catalans. The president of the Spanish executive,
00:08:13Pedro Sánchez, has sent a message on social
00:08:17networks expressing his affection and solidarity
00:08:20with the Colombian people in these very difficult times, and
00:08:24extending his condolences to the victims. From Catalonia, the
00:08:28situation is also being followed closely. The department of foreign
00:08:31affairs and the president of the Generalitat have also expressed
00:08:34this solidarity with the Colombian people on social
00:08:38networks, and are also
00:08:43situation of the Catalans who live
00:08:46there. Here we are talking about figures of people who
00:08:50live there, but there are also many
00:08:54to register in the visitor registry, in the
00:08:57traveler registry, and that is why there is no official record, although the
00:09:01area of Pereira, especially is a very touristy area
00:09:04because it is in an area called the coffee axis where
00:09:08many visits are made at these times.
00:09:13"Around 7,800 Catalans permanently reside in
00:09:16Colombia. Here, as president of the Catalan community, we are
00:09:20trying to talk to all our colleagues who live in
00:09:23Pereira, Manizales, Cali,
00:09:26luckily, they have sent messages saying they were fine and that they were well,
00:09:30but, the area is very
00:09:33destroyed. The earthquake could be felt in several parts of the country,
00:09:36also in cities like Bogotá or Medellín, where most
00:09:40Catalans live. The departure of everyone to the street has had a huge
00:09:43impact, at least in the area I saw, which is the surroundings of the
00:09:47streets, they were full of people, they went down without
00:09:49thinking and well, with that fear of
00:09:53if there were aftershocks, surprised, really surprised and well, the
00:09:57television that I have nailed with an arm to the wall also
00:10:00moved and I say, what is happening here? It also caught
00:10:04Catalans who were in the country doing tourism by surprise. It was a quarter to
00:10:07eight in the morning, we were at
00:10:11the hostel where I am staying started to shake, at first the sensation was
00:10:15curious because you didn't really know what was happening and you saw the buildings move
00:10:18from one side to the other, it is the most touristy area, it is the area known as the
00:10:22coffee axis, it is the coffee area. It is in the
00:10:26center of the country, it is an area between the two
00:10:29mountain ranges, western and central,
00:10:33and it is a populated area, it is a rich area where there
00:10:37is tourism. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Generalitat
00:10:40says that it has no record of Catalans affected by the
00:10:43earthquake. The news of the earthquake caught
00:10:47many Colombians living in Barcelona or who are there as
00:10:50tourists by surprise, and many of them have gathered in establishments of
00:10:53traditional cuisine of the country to share the latest information that arrived
00:10:57from the area, although most had been able to contact family and friends from
00:11:01the most affected places, they live with great anguish the
00:11:04situation in their
00:11:05territory.
00:11:10quite affected emotionally, we already spoke with our relatives,
00:11:13communication was difficult, but we already managed to contact
00:11:16them, they are all fine, I am very attentive to the
00:11:20phone to receive more messages to see what happens,
00:11:23we are just waiting. for a friend of ours to answer, who has
00:11:27not said anything yet, one has the anguish of friends of
00:11:31friends of friends that
00:11:33well, a little bit of everything has happened, it is a feeling of
00:11:36desolation, comfort and perhaps a spiritual journey because one is here
00:11:40but with the heart
00:11:42there,
00:11:48let's change the subject and talk now about the debate on immigration that has arisen
00:11:52from what happened in Ceuta because Italy and Denmark request in a
00:11:56joint statement migrant repatriation centers in third
00:11:59countries outside the European Union. The Italian Prime Minister Giorgia
00:12:03Meloni of the far right and the Danish Mad Frederiksen,
00:12:07social democrat, also agree to reject what they consider
00:12:11uncontrolled immigration in the wake of the Ceuta migratory crisis.
00:12:16irregular immigration, they say, on the crime rate and
00:12:20the pressure on public
00:12:22services.
00:12:26Regarding this migratory crisis, it has also been learned that military personnel and civil
00:12:30guards stationed in Ceuta who are on vacation or enjoying
00:12:34leave will have to return to work. The Ministry of Defense
00:12:37has made this decision in view of the messages circulating on social
00:12:41networks calling for a new attempt to enter the city
00:12:45of Ceuta this Saturday, August 15. In the case of the
00:12:49Civil Guard, the suspension of vacations and permits is until further notice, the
00:12:52statement says, and also affects
00:12:55agents stationed in Melilla, with the aim, they say, of guaranteeing
00:12:58adequate coverage of
00:13:00services.
00:13:03A meeting has been called for Thursday between the Spanish government and the autonomous communities to
00:13:07address the relocation of minors arriving in Ceuta, and it will
00:13:10be held with the frontal opposition of Vox, shared with some
00:13:14autonomous governments of the Popular Party. The Spanish government
00:13:17assures that the ideal would be for minors to return to their
00:13:20families, which is the same as the Moroccan Minister of Justice has said.
00:13:26Without enough translators to attend, the dozens of minors wait at the
00:13:30doors of the Ceuta police station, queuing so that
00:13:33the police can take their data and add them to a list that already
00:13:37reaches 1,400 registered minors, according to the Spanish
00:13:41government, the figure will continue to rise. I don't dare to say a
00:13:44definitive figure. The fate of these minors is uncertain, but the
00:13:48government's priority will be for them to return to their
00:13:50families.
00:13:55priority with the government of Morocco, also with the minors, with their
00:13:58families, so that family reunification can take place.
00:14:02This coincides with the Moroccan Minister of Justice, who has demanded
00:14:05the return of minors in an interview with a North African
00:14:08newspaper. Those who cannot return will be transferred to other
00:14:12communities, as the law states. The first meeting on the distribution
00:14:15will be on Thursday. Vox says that it will not send its regional
00:14:19representatives. The PP, which governs with them in several communities, will
00:14:23attend, but it is not.
00:14:34For its part, Junts says that in Catalonia there are not enough places to
00:14:37accommodate them, recalling the 2025 agreement, by which it was
00:14:41exempted from the distribution, what the Spanish government has to
00:14:44decide is if it wants to continue doing the work as it was until now
00:14:47or wants to return to what it was before, continuing to tension Catalonia, we
00:14:51are committed to continuing as before, and that is Catalonia.
00:14:55Between adults and minors in Ceuta, there are between 8,000 and 11,000 migrants who
00:14:59entered on July 30, according to the city's president, who has asked
00:15:03to confine them in internment centers before
00:15:05expelling them. confined. Vives has also expressed
00:15:11concern about the possibility of a
00:15:15new wave of arrivals this week, which has forced the suspension
00:15:18of vacations for military personnel and civil
00:15:20guards.
00:15:27The Plàter, the Generalitat's plan that wants to bring order to the installation of
00:15:31renewable energies, has received more than 12,000 allegations against
00:15:34it. The plan aims to take Catalonia out of the tail of Europe
00:15:38in terms of renewable energy, but it has received frontal rejection from a large part of the
00:15:41involved regions because it will affect, among other things, agricultural
00:15:45areas. That 12,000 allegations have been presented
00:15:48against the Plàter means, according to Pegesia entities and the local
00:15:52world, that the document, at least, must be redone. A Plàter that has
00:15:56been done hastily, in any way, without
00:16:00listening to the territory, only providing for the interests of energy
00:16:03companies and vulture funds. The Generalitat is selling
00:16:07the narrative that the allegations made by the municipalities
00:16:11are a way of participating. This is not
00:16:14true, this is a manipulation by the department. More than
00:16:18300 municipalities have already opposed the plan, believing that
00:16:21it will destroy much agricultural and natural area and that it violates
00:16:25about forty points of different laws. They have been very
00:16:28clear with their demand. First, we ask them to withdraw the
00:16:32Plàter. And secondly, we ask for a moratorium on
00:16:35industrial macro-plant projects for renewables, until there
00:16:39is a well-made and approved and consensual plan with the citizens. For its
00:16:42part, the government makes a very
00:16:46different interpretation of the 12,000 allegations, which it will
00:16:49incorporate to adjust the initial proposal to the points of the
00:16:52territory where necessary. They will help us improve the document and from there
00:16:56elaborate a new, more consensual proposal during the second
00:16:59period of public information. Other voices acknowledge that
00:17:02changes will have to be made to the document, but that it is a good tool to plan the
00:17:06growth of green energies and stop being the tail of Europe as far as
00:17:10renewables are concerned, the most important thing is precisely to have a
00:17:13planning element and understand that it not only talks about the
00:17:17energy generation sites, but that afterwards this energy has to be transported
00:17:21and the alternative of no Platter, to understand each other,
00:17:24would probably lead us to a much worse
00:17:26scenario. We have been warning for days that protecting
00:17:30your eyes well when looking at Wednesday's eclipse is fundamental. Looking
00:17:34directly at the sun without protection can cause
00:17:37irreversible eye injuries, that is, permanent ones. In many places, special
00:17:41glasses have sold out or very few
00:17:44remain.
00:17:46This optician in Terrassa almost has no more approved glasses to
00:17:50see the eclipse. This means that the population is aware that they will have to
00:17:54protect their eyes, but not everyone knows why it is essential,
00:17:58because sunglasses do not have this protection for
00:18:02protecting, I don't know, I can't explain it well. First of
00:18:05all, because observing the eclipse, contrary to... the sun on a normal
00:18:08day, could give us a false sense of
00:18:11security. Normally, we don't think of looking at the sun because we already know it will hurt
00:18:16an eclipse, since it is getting dark, nothing happens. And the
00:18:19truth is that at that moment is when our retina can be most sensitive,
00:18:23because our pupil will have dilated and this light will hit
00:18:27our eye with more energy. That is why we need these
00:18:30certified glasses that filter 100% of ultraviolet
00:18:33rays and also infrared rays, a
00:18:36protection that we do not achieve with normal sunglasses. This is the
00:18:40image seen through these glasses that have the most powerful filter
00:18:44on the market. This filters ultraviolet light and therefore
00:18:48still allows us to see the light of the
00:18:51street. However, if we try approved eclipse
00:18:54glasses, these also filter infrared
00:18:58light, and therefore we can see the sun with
00:19:01complete normality. And we will also see that we are completely in the
00:19:05dark, this is what allows us to see the eclipse safely. Despite wearing
00:19:09approved glasses, ophthalmologists recommend not
00:19:12exposing your eyesight for too long during the eclipse. If
00:19:15it is recommended that you look for 25, 30 seconds,
00:19:19take a break and then look again for 25, 30
00:19:22seconds, because just a few seconds of exposure are enough
00:19:26to suffer from ocular
00:19:28retinopathy.
00:19:31Fixed on your eyes, when you
00:19:34try to read, you don't see the letters, when you
00:19:38try to drive, you see a smudge,
00:19:41this smudge doesn't go away. That's why every
00:19:45eclipse without suffering irreversible damage to the retina.

00:19:52It is not just a feeling, the sea temperature has reached historical
00:19:56highs in both the Atlantic and the Western Mediterranean. As for
00:19:59temperatures, Europe has experienced the hottest
00:20:03start to summer in history, with data from the Copernicus
00:20:06Climate Change Service of the European Union. The months of
00:20:10June and July have been especially warm and dry, especially in Spain,
00:20:13France and the United Kingdom, a combination that has favored forest
00:20:17fires with a record of CO2
00:20:20emissions.
00:20:24After three active days, firefighters have managed to stabilize the forest
00:20:27fire in Tiric and Catí, which is in the Alt Maestrat. The
00:20:31weather conditions have allowed them to attack the hot spots with about twenty
00:20:34air resources. The fire has devastated more than 750
00:20:38hectares. The confinement orders have been lifted and the residents of the
00:20:42town of Catia, evacuated yesterday, can now return home.
00:20:45In contrast, the fire in Niebla in Huelva is out
00:20:49of... the extinction capacity, it is already one of the largest
00:20:53in recent years in Andalusia, and has forced
00:20:56the evacuation of about 800 people.
00:27:49countries, us too, it will be delayed, but in the afternoon there will be some storms in
00:27:53some places in the Pyrenees, Pre-Pyrenees, especially in Lleida, also in the port
00:27:58basin. At 7 in the morning, we will have high values,
00:28:02Barcelona. 27 degrees e Mora d'Ebre 25. In fact, some
00:28:05regions are on night heat alert. From
00:28:09Barcelonès to Moncià, also passing
00:28:12through Ribera d'Ebre, Baix Ebre, also in
00:28:15Sagrià. The rest, calm in the morning with some cloudy intervals in the afternoon,
00:28:19clouds will grow in the Pyrenees or pre-Pyrenees, especially in Lleida, showers, some
00:28:23thunderstorms, also reaching the north of central Catalonia, also towards
00:28:26the Terra Alta area, interior
00:28:30Aragon, the temperature similar or... lower, heat equally and
00:28:34muggy near the sea, we also talk about some thunderstorms in the afternoon in the
00:28:38Andorran parishes towards the interior of Castellón, sun on the islands, a lot of
00:28:41heat, for example, Alghero maximum of 36 or 37 in Fraga,
00:28:45also intense heat in Italy, Rome
00:28:4841 degrees, also heat in Paris, maximum of
00:28:5133, and in the coming days, the day of the eclipse, in the afternoon some showers in the
00:28:54Pyrenees may occur the rest of the sun, cloudy
00:28:58intervals, some evolving clouds may grow, also towards
00:29:01Castellón. Then the low pressure and heat, intense
00:29:04heat may subside a little from Saturday.

00:30:43of emergency.
00:30:47The earthquake has affected cities like Pereira and Cali in the middle of the so-called coffee
00:30:51axis, which is a very visited area by tourists. There is no
00:30:55record of any Catalans
00:30:56affected.
