00:47Hello, welcome to From the South, I'm Ana Marrero from the Telesur headquarters in Caracas,
00:53Venezuela.
00:54For the news, stay with us.
01:09Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro continues inaugurating health and education institutions
01:13for the communities in the south of the country after his nationwide tour.
01:17On this occasion, the national president visited Puerto Ayacucho in the state of Amazonas where

01:28The room has a mass of innovative technology to provide better attention to oncology patients,
01:34granting the Venezuelan people's right to health.
01:37During the activity, the head of state described this achievement as a new victory over the
01:42economic blockade imposed by the United States, demonstrating once again that despite more
01:47than 930 sanctions, the executive continues to respond to the problems faced by the country
01:52in the different areas.
01:59It is a victory over the sanctions, and what I tell the people is that they will not be
02:04able to do whatever they want to do.
02:07They are doomed to defeat.
02:08Here the people will win.
02:10We will defeat the sanctions, in health, in industry, in agriculture, in everything.
02:17We are defeating the sanctions.
02:19President Nicolás Maduro also assured that the right-wing will not privatize public health
02:26care or the social rights of citizens.
02:32I had to come and I came to Puerto Ayacucho, Amazonas, to present this wonderful clinic
02:42for all the people, recovering public health, strengthening public health.
02:52No one will come to take away the people's social rights.
02:55No one will come to privatize public health.
03:01In this context, the Venezuelan government also delivered infrastructure awards for educational
03:05purposes in the state of Amazonas.
03:08According to the executive, the infrastructure will benefit the academic, humanistic and
03:12scientific training of more than 750 students.
03:15During the inauguration of the work, the head of state, Nicolás Maduro, was received by
03:19ancestral ethnic groups, aims, dances and prayers.
03:24Still in Venezuela, the international seminar of new holocausts in the 21st century is threatening
03:34the world, continues in the city of Caracas.
03:37In the forum, international experts analyze the situation in Palestine in the light of
03:41international law and as a cause of resistance.
03:45The seminar will also address several legal, media and humanitarian dimensions of the Israeli
03:51crimes in Palestine.
03:53The conference, organized by the Bolivarian University of Venezuela, will be held at the
03:57Romulo Gallego Center and for Latin American and Caribbean studies in the country's capital.
04:09We move on to Mexico, where President LĂłpez Obrador and President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum,
04:13as part of their first governmental tour, led a justice plan to focus on the Paso de
04:19Conchos mining disaster that left 65 miners dead in 2006.
04:25In their first stop in Villa San Juan de Sabinas, located in the state of Coahuila,
04:32they recommended to the families of the miners involved to resume the rescue of the bodies.
04:38The national executive also took the opportunity to express his confidence in the government
04:45that Sheinbaum is about to initiate, assuring that it will be a historic event after 200
04:51years of Mexican independence.
05:01Earlier a woman was killed on Friday in Mexico when the car she was traveling in collided
05:06with an advanced vehicle of President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum's team in the northern state
05:11of Coahuila.
05:13The accident happened when Sheinbaum and her team were traveling from Monterrey to San
05:18Juan de Sabinas, in the neighboring state of Coahuila.
05:21She met, together with President LĂłpez Obrador, with the relative of the 65 miners who died
05:27in 2006 in the Paso de Conchos mine.
05:36The National Land Agency of Colombia reported this Friday the delivery of land titles to
05:4135 families victims of the armed conflict.
05:44809 acres of land were handed over to grow corn, rice, bananas and beans 27 years after
05:52the massacre that took place in the municipality of Ituango, in the north of the department
05:58of Antioquia.

06:041997, which left 15 peasants murdered, 42 houses burned and more than 1,400 people displaced.
06:15The United Nations Children's Fund in Haiti warned that between 30 and 50 percent of the
06:22members of armed groups in the country are children who are victims of coercion, abuse
06:27and exploitation.
06:28In a report, the UN entity indicated that the children are often forced to join armed
06:35groups as a means to support their families or because of threats against them or their
06:40loved ones.
06:42The document also notes that there is a record of more than 400 graves of violations against
06:49children and reported that more than 180,000 children are displaced within the country.
07:01On Friday in Cuba, the Antonio Gutierrez Ternam electric power plant located in the province
07:08of Matanzas, a fire was reported in one of the full tanks at that fire plant.

08:55Welcome back to From the South.
09:08In Palestine, more than 30 citizens were killed in the last 24 hours following a new Israeli
09:14attack in the Gaza Strip.
09:16The health agency's statement noted that the Israeli occupation was committing four massacres
09:21against families in the Gaza Strip in the last 24 hours, with 34 deaths and 71 wounded
09:26transferred to hospitals.
09:27The total number of victims since October 7, 2023 grew to 37,260 dead and over 85,100
09:37wounded.
09:43The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine warned on Friday about a United States plan
09:49to impose a guarantee in political and security matters in the Gaza Strip.
09:54The leftist formation rejected Washington's project to disarm the Palestinian militias
09:58and stated that only the Palestinian people have the right to decide the fate of the territory.
10:05In Palestine, a 12-year-old boy died from malnutrition and dehydration in addition to
10:17a lack of medical supplies as a result of the ongoing Israeli side against the Gaza
10:22Strip.
10:23The death of Mustafa Hayasi brought to 40 the total number of deceased due to feminine-like
10:28conditions and the humanitarian crisis affecting the Palestinian population.
10:32Meanwhile, the Israeli army continues bombing and raiding several areas of the territory,
10:37increasing the humanitarian catastrophe that leads to the death of hundreds of Palestinians
10:42daily.
10:43The UN Secretary-General submitted to the Security Council an annual report on violations
10:55of the human rights of children in armed conflicts with Israel at the top of the list.
11:00Throughout official communique, the United Nations organizations detailed that the Tel
11:03Aviv regime was including a blacklist of countries violating children's rights worldwide.
11:08The document indicated that most serious cases of violations of children's rights have been
11:14perpetrated by the Israeli army, registered at least 7,833 violations against some 4,247
11:23Palestinian children in the West Bank.
11:30On Friday, hundreds of young Israelis organized a rally in Jerusalem to protest a rape cultured
11:37and victim blaming and shaming in surprising cases of domestic violence.
11:42This mobilization is part of the international movement known as the Slut Walk, which in
11:47addition to denouncing sexual violence, also opposed to the justification of rape by referring
11:55to any aspect of a woman's appearance.
11:58Rally attempts to rise their voices to end this rally, police and government's violence
12:04against women, while social activists also condemned the patriarchal administration
12:09of Benjamin Netanyahu.
12:13I think it was more important than ever.
12:17I think that war and the patriarchy are both the result of the same reality, unfortunately.
12:26And in this war we see a lot of violence towards women and I think we are here to say that
12:31we believe every women that violence against women is never okay and it's never our fault.
12:38The sign says that we have been neglected, that negligence starts in the corridors of
12:44the government and I refer to the negligence of Netanyahu's government that has been impotent
12:53for 20 years and it is doing bad things to Israel in general, to women and to all of
13:03us and to the Middle East.
13:05Not only to us, we have neighbors to consider.

13:25Don't go away.
13:34Welcome back.
13:38On Friday, President of Russia Vladimir Putin described as teeth the freezing of the country's
13:44assets abroad and warned that the move will no go unpunished.
13:48Western countries froze part of Russian assets and foreign exchange reserves.
13:59Now they are thinking about how to provide at least some legal basis in order to finally
14:03appropriate them.
14:05But despite all the trickery, theft is still theft and will not go unpunished.
14:16But the issue goes even deeper.
14:18By stealing Russian assets, they will take another step towards the destruction of the
14:22system that they themselves created and which for many decades ensured their prosperity,
14:27allowing them to consume more than they earned through debts and obligations to attract money
14:32from all over the world.
14:36In addition, President Putin stressed the need to guarantee the rights of Russian citizens
14:40in Ukraine.
14:45Of course, the rights, freedoms and interests of Russian-speaking citizens in Ukraine must
14:51be fully guaranteed.
14:53The new territorial realities, the status of Crimea, Sevastopol, the Donetsk and Luhansk
14:59peoples' republics, the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions as subjects of the Russian Federation
15:04must be recognized.
15:07In the future, all these basic and fundamental provisions must be embodied in fundamental
15:12international agreements.
15:14Naturally, this also envisages the lifting of all Western sanctions on Russia.
15:23And in Italy, a group of demonstrators took to the streets to protest against the meeting
15:27of the group of 7G7.
15:30The demonstration took place in Fasano in the luxurious Apulian restaurant where the
15:3615th edition of the two-day international summit was taking place.
15:40The demonstration was organized by trade unions, students and several activist groups.
15:46They protested against the war policies, the military spending, the impoverishment of the
15:53labor forces, the decline of public services, the decriminalization of migration and to
15:58demand a social and environmentally sustainable war.
16:06People are tired of dissenting when there is never any real response.
16:10Therefore, especially now, the G7 is so far removed from the people, so far removed from
16:16the territory, so far removed from real needs, that we cannot even oppose them because we
16:21speak two different languages.
16:23We speak a language of peace, solidarity, humanity, work and the environment and they
16:28speak the G7.
16:30And we are truly tired, there isn't even the possibility to confront each other.
16:34As a result, people don't even participate in dissent because they don't recognize an
16:39antagonist in this G7.
16:41They don't recognize them at all.
16:46Also in Italy, several climate activists protested in the vicinity of the G7 press center demanding
16:52answers to the fuel crisis.
16:54Activists at the event pointed out that the summit had produced a lot of concrete commitments
17:00and that a mass of pledges had already been agreed at previous lower level meetings on
17:06this issue.
17:07Government leaders also stressed that G7 should abandon public investments in natural gas
17:13and other polluting fossil fuels that affect the well-being of the planet Earth.
17:24On Friday, Cambodian authorities burned out over the four-ton fusada legal drugs as part
17:30of the government's ongoing efforts to combat substance trafficking in the country.
17:36After the Prime Minister, whom I met, took office in 2023, the nation showed an upward
17:43trend of drug arrests and assassins.
17:46Due to its geographical position, the United Nations Office of Drug and Crime's rebuilt
17:51Cambodia serves as a major transit road for drug trafficking.
17:55Consequently, the majority of substance assassins come from the Golden Triangle, where Myanmar
18:02Laos and Thailand cover.
18:07A woman who never, ever fails to deliver.
18:19And now, changing topics.
18:20The European Football Championship, known as EuroCup 2024, begins on Friday and will
18:26run until July 14th.
18:28Let's see.
18:29The 2024 edition, which will be held in Germany for the second time, is the 17th edition of
18:35the European tournament, which will bring together 24 national teams, the defending
18:40champion is the Italian national team, which was crowned champion for the second time in
18:452021 after defeating England in the penalty shootout series.
18:50It should be noted that Germany and Spain are the maximum champions in the history of
18:54the European Championship with three titles each.
18:57On the other hand, it is worth noting that the French team, which has been one of the
19:01most successful teams in recent decades, the last time to win the EuroCup dates back to 1984.
19:31.
