01:33is unknown.
01:35Israel's continuous aggressions against the Gaza Strip by land, sea and air since October
01:397, 2023, has so far caused the deaths of 42,065 civilians and injured more than 97,000, most
01:50of them children and women.
01:55The non-allied movement expressed on October the 10th its concern over the use of international
02:01Lebanon weapons in Israel's genocide against Palestine and Lebanon.
02:06During the meeting, the Executive Council of Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical
02:11Weapons, the non-allied movement expressed its concern and warned about the use of white

02:28The United Nations Interforce of Lebanon, UNIFIL, accused Israel of attacking its headquartered
02:34facilities in the town of Nakruat, southern Lebanon.

03:09of the bunker.

03:22reported two UN peacekeepers have been injured and hospitalized right after.
03:29Serious risk.
03:31Clashes in the Labuneh slash Nakura area since the 8th of October have involved tank and
03:36small arms fire, airstrikes, iron dome interceptions and multiple explosions.
03:42Two peacekeepers were wounded when earlier today a UN post OP-14 in UNIFIL's headquarters
03:48in Nakura was hit by a tank.
04:01Indonesia strongly condemns this attack.
04:04An attack on UN personnel and property constitutes a serious violation of international humanitarian
04:10law and UN Security Council Resolution No. 1701.
04:25The official call for a UN resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire from Israel, and assert
04:32that all the victims of last day's attacks were civilians.
04:35The statement comes after at least 22 people were killed and 117 wounded in two Israeli
04:41bombing of, on Thursday night, in residential areas of Beirut, the Lebanese capital.
04:47In addition, Mikheil stressed that the Israeli attack on UN peacekeepers in the south of
04:52the country is a denounced crime.
04:58The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, IAN, held on Thursday the second day of a
05:06summit taking place in the Vietnamese capital of Laos.
05:10In the meetings were held with the Prime Minister of China, India and Canada, as well as with
05:16the Russian Foreign Minister, among other excellent partners.
05:19After the meeting with the representative of the Chinese government, the signing of
05:23an agreement to expand China's free trade agreement with China was announced.
05:27In this sense, Prime Minister Li Keqiang emphasized that in a context of instability and uncertainty,
05:35China and the Asians have an opportunity to develop together in a climate of slow recovery
05:40of international economy.
06:04Because everything they do is aimed at containing China and Russia, and in the name of this
06:08task, everything that has been accumulated over the long 10 years within the ASEAN-centric
06:13format, which was convenient for everyone, which took into account the interests of each
06:17and everyone, all of it is being sacrificed, so, the destructive nature of the U.S. actions
06:21in this part of the world is obvious."
06:2332 countries confirmed participation in the BRICS summit that will take place in Kassus,
06:30Russia.
06:31According to Russian Presidential Adviser Yuri Ushakov, the event will take place this
06:36year in the Russian city of Kassus from October the 22nd to the 24th, under the theme of strengthening

07:11and highlighted the upward trend of using other international currencies besides the
07:16dollar, a strategy that helps people to strengthen their respective economies.
07:21First of all, I don't think it's de-dollarization.
07:26I think it's the use of different currencies that expands your currency basket, as the
07:31euro expanded, as the euro had at a certain point in time.
07:35Everybody used, and still uses, the euro as a reference currency.

08:17The interconnection of times and civilization is the basis of peace and development.
08:23The two leaders met in Azgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan, where they have traveled

08:37Russian Presidential Advisor Yuri Ushakov said that a meeting between the two heads
08:42of state is of great importance, both to address bilateral issues and to discuss the gravier
08:49situation in the Middle East.
08:55Relations with Iran are a priority for us, and they are developing very successfully.
09:01We are actively working together on the international arena, and our views of events in the world
09:06are often very close.
09:08In Pakistan an armoured mine in Balochistan province left at least 20 dead and injured
09:14seven people.
09:15In this regard, police officers report that the incident occurred late on Thursday evening
09:20in the Duki area, and that victims were mostly from Balochistan region, with some being from
09:26Afghanistan.
09:27So far, no armed groups have claimed accountability for the strike, in which perpetrators used
09:32heavy weapons, rockets, launchers and hand grenades.
09:36These kinds of attacks have been occurring more often in the country in recent months,
09:40triggering companies involved in the extraction of mineral resources, as well as foreign employees
09:46working for them.
09:5120 innocent people were killed.
09:54These poor people did not belong to any party or group.
09:57They were just there to earn a living for their children.
09:59Some of them were from Afghanistan, some from Killa Saifullah and other parts of the country.
10:04These cruel attackers murdered 20 innocent people.
10:08In the United States, with less than four weeks to go before the presidential elections,

10:53recent events.
10:54Financial break, don't go away.
11:11Welcome back.
11:12In Colombia, in a view of the recent coup d'etat attempts planned by the country's right
11:17wing, the different political forces that support the government of President Gustavo
11:21Petro call on the population to march in defense of his presidency.
11:25In this regard, the senator of the Camo Party, Sandra Ramírez, issued a call for people
11:29to take to the streets to march on October the 11th, since the right wing wants to serve
11:34power from the changed government.
11:38For her part, the UNADIF-leadered and congresswoman of the House of Representatives, Carmen Ramírez
11:45Poscam, points out that it is necessary to support a government's call to mobilize in
11:50order to defend democracy and achieve the thrones of revolutionary forces.
11:59In Venezuela, the first political and academic forum for the situation in Colombia proposed
12:04a political dialogue process in Caracas with the mediation of Venezuela's lagging of anticipated
12:09countries.
12:10The foreign minister of Venezuela released an official statement with the conclusions.
12:14After the forewarning view of the worsening of the crisis in this country, as well as
12:19the execution of a coup d'etat publicly denounced by President Gustavo Petro, it is proposed
12:25to create a broad process of political discussions among Colombian actors with the direct mediation
12:33of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
12:35Likewise, it is proposed to invite President Xiomara Castro in her capacity as the president
12:40pro tempore of the community of Latin American Caribbean states alike, as well as the countries
12:45of the Bolivarian allies for the peoples of America, to contribute their good office in
12:52this process of dialogue and to promote conversations that tend to build ways towards respect for
12:59popular sovereignty that guarantees the full well-being of Colombia.
13:04The statement continues.
13:05The discussions held in these forums have also reached consensus on the importance of
13:10political and diplomatic relations between Venezuela and Colombia, which have taken on
13:14a positive dynamic since their relaunch two years ago with the arrival of President Petro's
13:19government.
13:20Finally, the proposal of the large community of Colombians in Venezuela, made up of millions
13:25of migrants, to join the initiative proposed by this forum, which has been carried out
13:30in evoking the noble principles of solidarity among the Bolivarian peoples, has been welcomed.
13:42In Ecuador, the Mazatec hydroelectric power plant shut down its turbines due to low water
13:47levels in the surveyors that supplies it, thus worsening the energy crisis in the country.
13:53The flow of the dam fell 2,115 meters above sea levels.
13:59Its limits will operate correctly since, at low points, the mud and sediments can damage
14:05the equipment.
14:06The plant is part of the main hydroelectric complex in Ecuador, and its stoppage comes
14:12after the government announced the day before power outages of up to 10 hours.
14:23The Mexican state-owned oil company Petroleos Mexicanos, Pemex, reported on Thursday a chemical
14:29spill at the third-party refinery located in Texas, United States, that caused the death
14:35of two people.
14:36In an official note, the company said the affected workers are being treated.
14:41In addition, Pemex explained that the emergency protocols were activated and that the corresponding
14:46investigations are being carried out to know the causes of the accident and to guarantee
14:51the reactivation of the facilities.
14:58Yesterday afternoon we had an accident at the Deer Park refinery which is located in
15:03Texas.
15:05As you know, there was a sour gas leak, it is hydrogen sulfide gas, which is severely
15:10harmful to health.
15:12We had 35 people affected, of which only 13 were evaluated locally and sent to the hospital,
15:19and they are in good health, however, they remain in the hospital for 24 hours for protocol
15:24reasons.
15:25Unfortunately, we have two fatalities, which are the workers who were directly working
15:31in the affected area and who received the direct impact of the gas.
15:36A series of investigations are currently underway to unveil the causes of the accident.
15:42We cannot yet state or point out exactly what they have.
15:45We cannot speculate on the reasons for what happened until the incident is concrete.
15:51The third meeting of ABIAYALA is taking place in Guatemala with deep reflections on the
15:56advance and setbacks of popular movements and social organizations of our continent.
16:01Our correspondent Santiago Botón, more details.
16:09Delegates from several countries are meeting to build a common horizon.
16:12This is the third continental meeting of ABIAYALA Soberana taking place in the municipality
16:16of Santiago Zacatepeques, Guatemala.
16:20We are here to come to reflect and deepen our processes of struggle in the territories,
16:25but also to where we are going.
16:27We have reflected about it every year.
16:30The third meeting also addresses self-criticism, emphasizing that the left bears some responsibility
16:36for its support for the election of right-wing governments that implement the imperialist
16:41plan, as happened in many cases in Peru.
16:46Pedro Pablo Kaczynski, a government of the right and the left said, we must support the
16:52lesser evil.
16:54And that is why I say the left also has responsibility for having led governments and it is still
17:00the same as always.
17:02And sometimes we also question some leftist projects, for example, Chile.
17:07It entered as a government of the left, but it is clearly right-wing.
17:13What is alarming is that there are also social and leftist movements financed by the imperialist
17:19corporation to install an opposition to the same oppression they promote in the world,
17:24according to a Puerto Rican sociologist.
17:31It is a perverse thing because what they want is to produce a domesticated left, a left
17:36that is controlled by them, that doesn't get out of hand, a left that is not anti-imperialist.
17:41So that is why they finance feminists from the USAID, the embassy, from NGOs, from foundations.
17:49The CIA channels money to strengthen the domesticated opposition that they want.
17:56In this sense, the social and indigenous organizations of Abia Yala Soberana consider it imperative
18:01to deepen the decolonization of the people's thinking in order to advance in the horizon
18:07of good living.
18:08On Friday, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Japanese group Nihodo Hinekendo, formed
18:18by atomic bomb survivors, with the 2024 Peace and Nobel Prize for its tireless work against
18:24the use of nuclear weapons.
18:27The laureate is of course even more challenging when dark sky is on the horizon, when conflicts
18:33is present around the world.
18:35But this year we want to highlight the important and the astonishing fact that nuclear weapons
18:39have not been used in 80 years, also because of the incredible work of the Nihon Hidaki.
18:45This year's prize is both a wake-up call to the world, but it's also to recognize how
18:52individuals can stand up and create hope by telling their stories.
18:57After receiving the award, Hideko's Hiroshima branch executive highlights the parallels
19:04between the current situation in Gaza and the devastation caused by the atomic bomb
19:08in Japan.
19:12After all, it is all about peace.
19:14The images of the children in Gaza covered with blood held by their parents remind me
19:19of Japan 80 years ago.
19:22Children lost their fathers in the war and lost their mothers with the nuclear bomb.
19:27They became orphans.
