02:03This program, with a budget of nearly $600 million, aims to limit the spread of the
02:08virus and provide appropriate care in the most affected areas.

02:55The initial scrutiny, held last November and won by Giorgis Kou in the first round,
03:00had been canceled due to financial irregularities related, according to the Constitutional Court,
03:05to a Russian interference.

03:34In the United States, to continue this press conference, a pro-Palestinian student was
03:38arrested by the ICE in New York, writes the Columbia Spectator.
03:42Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student and activist at the University of Columbia, was
03:47arrested on Saturday evening by ICE agents and border patrols of the Department of
03:53Homeland Security, at his home on campus.
03:56His lawyer denounces an abusive detention, stating that Khalil, a permanent resident
04:01in the United States, cannot be expelled by the Department of State.
04:04His arrest follows pressure exerted by pro-Israeli groups online and intervenes
04:09in a tense climate on American campuses since the decree of Donald Trump against
04:14anti-Semitism, writes the student journal of elected officials and associations, denouncing

04:25In Mexico, the population of monarch butterflies has doubled this winter.
04:29In the United States, butterflies disappear alarmingly, states the International Courier,
04:34according to the conclusions of a study carried out and studied.
04:38Published last week in the journal Science, 22% of butterflies disappeared in the country
04:43between 2000 and 2020.
04:45This new study constitutes a serious reversal in terms of the potential future of these
04:49dear insects, known for their beauty and their essential role in pollination, explains
04:54the specialized media taken over by the French-speaking magazine.
04:58In Canada, this bad news of the massive disappearance of butterflies in the United States
05:02has left scientists in tears since similar trends are expected in Canada,
05:06adds the Courier.
05:08The disappearance of a butterfly over 5 in 20 years should be a warning signal for people.
05:12This decline does not stop to believe the words of Dr. Elisa Grimes,
05:16Associate Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Binghamton
05:20and co-author of the study.
05:24This is the end of this press release.
