00:00The Palestinian death toll from hunger and malnutrition has risen to 175 due to the blockade of Israeli-promoted humanitarian aid against the Gaza Strip.
00:20Argentinian President Javier Milei has vetoed laws regulating social assistance, social expansion, social security, moratoria and disability emergencies.
00:34On Sunday, rescue teams confirmed the discovery of two more bodies inside the El Teniente copper mine, located in the O'Higgins region in central Chile.
00:48Hello and welcome to From the South. I'm Alejandra Garcia from Telesur Studios in Havana, Cuba. We begin with an ease.
00:59The Palestinian death toll from hunger and malnutrition has risen to 175 due to the blockade of Israeli-promoted humanitarian aid against the Gaza Strip.
01:14According to health organizations, at least seven people have died in recent hours, which increases the food crisis in the Palestinian territories.
01:21In this regard, they warned that 20,000 children were hospitalized for acute malnutrition, while 300,000 children under five urgently need medical attention.
01:32In addition, they warned that despite the entry of some trucks of humanitarian aid or humanitarian aid, food needs in the Gaza Strip remains unmet.
01:53Meanwhile, social organizations held the president of the United States, Donald Trump, responsible for the famine that daily claims the lives of civilians in the Gaza Strip.
02:12At the same time, they rejected the humanitarian aid distribution centers created by Washington and Tel Aviv because they were trapped, planned to murder thousands of Gazans.
02:24The Palestinian authorities denounced that since May 27th, more than 1,300 civilians were killed as a result of Zionist attacks on food delivery points.
02:43As part of their excavation policies, Israeli forces have killed 97% of the cattle and working animals in the Palestinian territories.
02:52According to Gazan authorities, 93% of chicken farms were destroyed by Zionist attacks, while the rest were forced to completely shut down.
03:01They warned that the attacks are intended to starve families in the Gaza Strip.
03:06At least 119 Palestinians were killed in Israeli bombings against the Gaza Strip in the last 24 hours.
03:20The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that 866 wounded entered health centers, which are overwhelmed by the number of victims of the Zionist siege.
03:31In turn, they reported that ambulance and civil protection teams have not been able to rescue people trapped under the rubble or on the roads since Israel keeps their passage blocked.
03:42Since October 7th, 2023, almost 60,900 Palestinians have been killed, murdered, mostly women and children, victims of the Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip.
03:55Thousands of Palestinians are protesting in the occupied West Bank to condemn the genocide in the Gaza Strip and show solidarity with those kidnapped in Israel.
04:13Sunday's march was part of the Gaza Strip.
04:14Sunday's march was part of the International Day of Support for Gaza and prisoners in Israeli jails, with official institutions, political and civil forces taking part.
04:24With Palestinian banners and flags, the protesters denounced the genocide, the blockade of humanitarian aid and the famine crisis caused by Israeli forces in the coastal enclave.
04:34They also demanded the release of the Palestinian hostages.
04:46This is a call to the world to expose the ongoing crimes against captives in prisons and detention centers and against our people in the Gaza Strip, who are being subjected to a real genocide.
05:01This crime has reached its highest levels, and this occupation will continue to commit these crimes as long as there is scandalous international silence.
05:13Therefore, the international community is complicit in all this suffering as long as it does not intervene quickly to save the Palestinian people, men and women confined in prisons.
05:26I am here to show my solidarity with our people in the besieged, starving and exhausted Gaza Strip.
05:34We are here to tell the world that enough is enough.
05:37We hope that our demonstration today will have an impact in supporting our people and the starving children in Gaza, and in supporting the captives in the prisons of the occupation.
05:46We ask the world to support them, resolve their crisis and save them from the death they are experiencing.

06:11They also emphasize that it is a religious, moral and humanitarian duty to defend the thousands of Palestinian victims there.
06:19They also urge countries around the world to denounce international silence as flagrant complicity with genocide and to confront the Zionist siege and aggression.
06:36Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif met with visiting Iranian President Massoud Peshiskan to deepen bilateral trade, energy and regional security cooperation.
06:47On a meeting held Sunday, the Iranian leader thanked Pakistan for its support in the face of Israeli aggressions in the region.
06:54On his part, the head of Pakistani diplomacy stressed that any attack on the neighboring country is considered an attack on both nations due to their brotherhood ties.
07:04Thus, Islamabad and Tehran have reaffirmed that strengthening their economic, scientific and cultural relations is an urgent necessity for strengthening the Middle East.
07:16Islamabad and Tehran have reaffirmed that the Israeli regime is considered an attack on both nations.
07:24Both sides believe that, in partnership and with the participation of countries in the region, especially Muslim countries, active and practical cooperation should be established.
07:36It is necessary to strengthen cooperation to counter the aggression of the expansionist Israeli regime.
07:42In this regard, initiatives were discussed to strengthen the necessary cooperation to foster stability and security in the region.
07:50Iranian President Massoud Peshiskan said that rejection of the Israeli aggressions against Palestine, Lebanon and Syria was the central topic of discussion at the meeting with the Pakistani Prime Minister.
08:03A condemnation to the crimes against humanity committed by the Zionist regime in Palestine, Lebanon and Syria, as well as the continuation of its flagrant destabilizing actions in the region and the need to put a stop to all of it was the main issue discussed at the meeting.
