00:00Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary General Shaikh Naeem Qassem denounced that Israel intends

00:15to control the world through an expansionist project in the Middle East.

00:22The World Food Programme warned that Haiti faces one of the highest rates of food insecurity

00:27in the world since 5.4 million citizens are in crisis and half of the population suffers

00:33from hunger.

00:37And the National Federation of Secondary Education Teachers in Uruguay has gone on a 48-hour

00:43strike to reject the government's education reform and budget cuts.

00:52Hello and welcome to From the South, I'm Alejandra Garcia from Telesur Studios in Havana, Cuba.

00:57We begin with the news.

01:16Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary General Shaikh Naeem Qassem denounced that Israel intends

01:20to control the world through an expansionist project in the Middle East.

01:24During a speech, Naeem Qassem assured that Hezbollah is still strong despite the attacks

01:29received by the Israeli regime.

01:31He also indicated that they are regaining their strength and rebuilding a new organizational

01:36structure.

01:37Qassem warned that Israel is betting on crime under the absolute protection of the United

01:42States and will take an official position on the matter.

01:45Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary General affirmed that the resistance will attack the Israeli

01:50occupation army, its operation bases and barracks until a ceasefire is reached.

02:02Israel is an expansionist occupation that is not satisfied with Palestine.

02:06It wants the whole Arab region.

02:08It wants the whole Islamic landscape.

02:10Rather, it wants to control the world based on its...

02:15In addition, the Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary General assured that the United States is

02:19also responsible for the crimes orchestrated by Israel.

02:27This means that the United States and Israel carry out together these acts of genocide

02:32and this ongoing crime in Palestine, Lebanon and the region, and the U.S. gives Israel

02:37free rein to do whatever it wants with all the military, political, media and international

02:42capabilities exercised by the United States.

02:44This means they are partners in what they want to achieve.

02:47We are facing a new threat in the Middle East, Israeli-U.S. style, at the hands of

02:52the Israeli criminal, the sponsorship of the great satan.

02:59Meanwhile in Lebanon, an airstrike by the Israeli regime killed four members of a family

03:04early on Tuesday morning in the south of the country.

03:08The attack was carried out in Harboa city in the Ignim Al-Tufa region against the victim's

03:13house in Al-Shara'iq neighborhood.

03:16The air force of the Zionist occupation of Israel intensified its aggressive escalation

03:21in the south of the country, causing serious damage to the infrastructure, including the

03:25Al-Murtada hospital, which was put out of service.

03:34As Israel's aggressive escalation against the Palestinian people continues, the death

03:38toll has risen to more than 42,344 and some 99,013 people have been wounded.

03:46The figure was reached during the last 24 hours when the Israeli occupation forces carried

03:51out an attack where 55 Palestinians were killed and 329 wounded.

03:57Health authorities indicated that most of the victims were women and children.

04:02In addition, local media reported that the Israeli occupation forces continue to obstruct

04:07the movement of ambulances and civil defense teams, blocking the access of medical emergency

04:12services, which could cost the lives of the wounded.

04:21Russia's permanent representative to the UN Security Council, Vasily Nebensia, accused

04:26the West of double standards when he condemned the arrest of UN employees by the government

04:32of Yemen, while looking the other way about killings in Yemen, Gaza and Lebanon by the

04:37Israeli forces.

04:39The Russian representative pointed out that the West ignores the dozens of assassinations

04:44committed by Israel against UN employees in Gaza and the attacks against its officials

04:50in Lebanon.

04:51Nebensia recalled that the arrests of the UN representatives by the ruling Ansar Allah

04:56movement in Yemen were made on charges of involvement in acts of sabotage and espionage.

05:03In this regard, the Russian representative emphasized the need for the West to reject

05:08any act of civil arson against representatives of the UN, including the actions of Israel

05:13against officials in Gaza and Lebanon.

05:20Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned the Israeli attack against UN peacekeepers

05:27troops in Lebanon.

05:28During a Senate session, Meloni described the Israeli attack against the United Nations

05:32Security Mission as unjustified and pointed out that it represents a violation of United

05:37Nations Security Council Resolution 1701.

05:42The attack took place on Sunday when Israeli tanks reportedly forced their way into one

05:47of the gates of the United Nations Mission in southern Lebanon.

05:50The incursion happened after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the United

05:55Nations Mission to evacuate its troops from the area.

05:58Prime Minister Meloni also informed about her plans to visit Lebanon, while Foreign

06:03Minister Antonio Tajani will travel to Israel and the Palestinian territories.

06:12On Tuesday, the United Nations warned that the conflict-ravaged Gaza is facing the worst

06:17restrictions on aid since the Israeli genocide began over a year ago and its devastating

06:23impact on children.

06:25According to the spokesman for the United Nations Children's Agency, UNICEF, James

06:30Elder, day after day the situation for children becomes worse than the day before, as Israel

06:36has been intensifying its operations in the north of the besieged Palestinian territory,

06:41where hundreds of thousands of people are trapped.

06:44Despite a desperate need to increase the amount of aid going in, the aid access is worsening.

06:50Last week, there were several days when no commercial trucks of any kind were allowed

06:55to enter.

06:56Day after day, the situation for children becomes worse than the day before, and that's

07:06going to continue so long as we see ongoing strikes and so long as we see now what is

07:12probably the worst restrictions we've seen on humanitarian aid.

07:16August was the lowest amount of humanitarian aid that came into the Gaza Strip of any full

07:21month since the war broke out, and over several days in the last week, no commercial trucks,

07:27no commercial trucks whatsoever were allowed to come in.

07:31So children now have multiple deprivations, having moved many times, now living in – 85

07:38per cent of the Gaza Strip is now under some form of an evacuation order, so now living

07:43in conditions that are essentially unlivable.

07:49In Spain, citizens mobilised to reject the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli regime

07:53in the Gaza Strip and to call for an immediate ceasefire in Palestine.

07:58Spanish social organisations gathered to demand a ceasefire and a long-term political solution

08:03to the Israeli war against Palestine.

08:05The gathering took place outside the European Union headquarters in Barcelona, where the

08:10demonstrators demanded Tel Aviv to take responsibility for its war crimes and crimes against humanity.

08:16Spanish citizens have repeatedly requested the government to put an end to the trade

08:21of weapons and military technology with the Israeli regime, as well as a rupture of diplomatic,

08:26institutional, economic, sporting and cultural relations with that country.

08:31Let's take a short break, but remember you can join us on TikTok at TELUS of English,

08:43We'll be right back, stay with us.

09:02Welcome back to From the South.

09:04The World Food Programme warned that Haiti faces one of the highest rates of food insecurity

09:08in the world since 5.4 million citizens are in crisis and half of the population suffers

09:13from hunger.

09:15According to a report of the United Nations programme, at least 2 million Haitians are

09:19living in an emergency situation and another 6,000 in catastrophic levels of famine.

09:25The report detailed that the citizens in emergency situations suffer from extreme food shortages,

09:31severe malnutrition and numerous diseases.

09:34Social organisations assured that $230 million are needed to implement assistance programmes

09:40to support the citizens affected by armed violence until the end of the year.

09:45On the other hand, the generalised violence in Haiti has caused the displacement of more

09:56than 700,000 people, half of them children.

10:00Many of the citizens have been forced to move to shelters such as schools and public buildings

10:05in the capital city of Port-au-Prince.

10:07These shelters, due to the high population and poor sanity conditions, are prone to the

10:12spread of diseases.

10:14At the Food and Agriculture Organization's Investment Forum 2024 held in Italy, Cuban

10:24President Miguel Diaz-Canel asserted that the U.S. blockade affects the Caribbean island's

10:29food security.

10:30Farmers and food are inseparable terms, and in the case of Cuba it is strategic for many

10:43reasons that do not end in a few lines.

10:46We live in a time marked by inequality and injustice in economic relations, where it

10:51is most cruelly expressed in the painful food shortages suffered by the largest majorities,

10:56including progress.

10:57In this vital area of this critical global picture, the state's left all over the planet

11:01by the two years of pandemic, with its impact not yet overcome in the supply chain, the

11:06dramatic effects of climate change on food productions in Cuba's specific case, the long

11:11and deep political damage of the blockade, worsens the economy as a whole with an emphasis

11:16on the standard of living of the Cuban people.

11:21In this context, President Diaz-Canel urged the international community to support Cuba

11:26and to consider it as a strategic partner for agricultural development and global food

11:30security.

11:31I thank you for the opportunity to participate in this forum, and invite you to consider

11:36Cuba as a strategic partner in a joint path towards agricultural development and food

11:41security.

11:43In Venezuela, from the mountain barracks in Caracas, President Nicolás Maduro led the

11:47ceremony for the handover of the High Command of the General Commands of the Bolivarian

11:52National Armed Forces Aviation Military Presidential Honor Guard and Intelligence Service.

11:58During the act of handover and acceptance of command of the Bolivarian National Armed

12:02Forces, the Venezuelan head of state expressed that the country is on the right side of history,

12:08assuring that the country has the military power it needs for its defense.

12:12He also congratulated the National Armed Forces for its work and results in the defense of

12:18the sovereignty of the Venezuelan territory.

12:20Moreover, President Maduro pointed out that in Venezuela there is absolute peace.

12:25I want to welcome and convey to all the military family of Venezuela, my recognition and my

12:39congratulations.

12:48We can say categorically, absolutely clearly, that Venezuela has a military power

13:01that defends it, that Venezuela has military men at the front of this beautiful battle

13:05of the 21st century for the powerful homeland.

13:16As Commander-in-Chief, with the example of our Commander Hugo Chávez and the military

13:29glories of our history, I have studied humbly to fully serve my country.

13:41As Commander-in-Chief, and every day I learn something from you, cadets, soldiers, officers,

13:47superior general staff.

13:52Members of the Colombian National Learning Service Union rallied Tuesday in Bogota in

13:57support of President Gustavo Petro amid investigations by the National Electoral

14:01Council into the head of state campaign finances during the 2024 elections.

14:06The demonstrators denounced the highest electoral bodies investigation as a coup

14:10attempt against the Colombian president.

14:13They also affirmed that the charges against the head of state are a violation of the

14:17country's constitution, since the electoral entity does not have the power to investigate

14:22the president.

14:23The demonstrators demanded that the will for change of the Colombian people be respected.

14:33The National Federation of Secondary Education Teachers in Uruguay has gone on a 48-hour

14:38strike to reject the government's education reform and budget cuts.

14:42As part of the mobilization, the union members occupied several learning centers in the Uruguayan

14:48capital, forcing them to suspend their classes.

14:51During the two-day strike, there will be mobilizations, internal assemblies and meetings

14:56with parents and students.

14:57A march along the 18 de Julio Avenue is also expected on Wednesday morning.

15:07Well, look, we have a very serious contradiction here.

15:09There is an ideological project, which means that the state is only responsible for the

15:14instruction or education of our young people up to the age of 15, above that age, thinking

15:18about high school.

15:20It is the responsibility of the family or the people themselves who want to study if

15:24this withdrawal of the state is in line with the withdrawal of the state from other public

15:27policies, particularly from the social law.

15:30This year we have seen how the Ayahuasca High School, an emblematic institution of the Uruguayan

15:34public culture, was dismantled.

15:36Today they are going to dismantle the Bausa High School.

15:39Another emblematic institution here in this area of the capital.

15:42It is the logic of restricting the possibility, not only of exercising the right to education

15:47not only in relation to high school, but also of limiting access to higher education,

15:52particularly to the university.

15:56At the moment, what we have is an act of occupation, which means that the occupation is

16:01legal.

16:02The police came, but only to receive the complaint.

16:06There is no intervention order for now.

16:09We are only occupying the place.

16:11At the time they arrive, we will evaluate the situation, the attitude of the police,

16:16and then we will see how we vacate the center.

16:38Welcome back to From the South.

16:58Russia warns of Western states' attempts to put pressure on Georgia's authorities

17:02and interfere in the election campaign, as the October 26th parliamentary polls approach.

17:07Moscow said it has observed open attempts by Western countries led by the United States

17:13to exert pressure on the authorities of Georgia and directly influence the course of the election

17:18campaign.

17:19In this context, the Russian government has also been emphatic in stressing that it does

17:24not meddle in any way in the internal affairs of its neighbor nation.

17:29Western countries toughened their rhetoric against Georgia after it passed a law in May

17:35for authorities to protect the country from foreign interference.

17:44South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff held an emergency meeting after reporting on condemning

17:49the destruction of connecting roads to the north.

17:52Although Pyongyang has not made any statement, it warned earlier that it would carry out

17:56this operation.

17:57The incident occurred after South Korean drones flew over the northern territory and dropped

18:03propaganda leaflets.

18:05In turn, the Deputy Director of the Propaganda Department of the DPRK Workers' Party Kim

18:11Yo-jong said that the overflight of drones in its airspace was equivalent to a declaration

18:16of war.

18:17The U.S. presence and its constant military exercises have led to increasing tensions

18:22in the area.

18:24In this context, the Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning warned of the intensification

18:30of tensions in Asia and urged all involved parties to resolve their conflicts through

18:35diplomacy.

18:36Furthermore, the official shared Beijing's concern about the welfare of the region as

18:40China reassured its commitment to maintaining peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula.

18:46We have noted the relevant situation.

18:49As a close neighbor of the peninsula, China is paying attention to the development of

18:53its situation and the dynamics of North Korea-South Korea relations.

18:56Tensions on the peninsula do not serve the common interests of all parties, and the priority

19:01is to avoid further escalation of conflicts.

19:03China's position on maintaining peace and stability on the peninsula and promoting a

19:07political solution to this issue remains unchanged.

19:10We also hope that all parties will make joint efforts toward this goal.

19:13On Tuesday, heads of state and top diplomats from member countries of the Shanghai Cooperation

19:18Organization arrived in Pakistan's capital Islamabad to attend the 23rd summit.

19:23Participants believe the two-day summit will achieve positive results and provide more

19:28impetus to the security, stability and development of regional countries.

19:33Since the establishment of the organization 23 years ago, its member states have always

19:39adhered to the Shanghai spirit, continuously enhanced good neighborhoodliness and deepened

19:45cooperation in various fields.

19:47In this context, the Chinese Premier Li Xian, who is currently on an official visit in Pakistan,

19:53will reportedly attend the Council meeting, where the international community expects

19:58the organization to shoulder greater responsibility and achieve more practical cooperation outcomes.

20:05Every October 15th, the world community comes together to celebrate International Rural Women's Day.

20:14In recognition of rural women and girls' vital role in the development of the country,

20:20the International Women's Day is held every October 15th.

20:23This is a day to remember the hard work of the women and girls of the world,

20:27and to remember their contributions to the development of the country.

20:31In recognition of rural women and girls' vital role in global food systems,

20:36this year's theme, Rural Women Sustaining Nature for Our Collective Future,

20:40Building Climate Resilience, Conserving Biodiversity and Caring for Land Towards

20:45Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women and Girls, highlights their contributions from

20:49crop production to food distribution despite facing systemic challenges like unequal power

20:54and higher food insecurity. Rural women account for about 22 percent of the global population.

21:00The International Day of Rural Women, first established by the General Assembly in its

21:05Resolution 62136 of December 18, 2007, recognizes the critical role and contribution of rural women,

21:13including indigenous women, in enhancing agricultural and rural development,

21:18improving food security and eradicating rural poverty.
