00:00In Argentina, since the government of Javier Milley, 216 journalists have been attacked.

00:05Reporters have become the favorite target of repression. Let's see more details.

00:15On Wednesday, March 12, during the ongoing protests by Argentina's retirees,

00:20reporter Pablo Grillo was about to take a photo of the scene that unfolds almost every Wednesday

00:24a barricade on fire, and behind it, the repressive forces of the government.

00:27Pablo Grillo did not see that one of the gendarmes aimed at his head and fired,

00:31shattering his skull. Pablo is still recovering. His father tells us how.

00:41Pablita is much better. His progress is very good. We had a period where we were a little scared.

00:47He wasn't making progress because that's how it was, there was a peak, then he developed hydrocephaly.

01:00No, he's better. More proactive. He had a kind of delay, you would ask him something,

01:16and it would take him a while to answer.

01:17It has been seven months of ups and downs, as the reporter lost a significant amount of brain

01:26matter in the shooting, requiring several operations.

01:33He stayed that way for a couple of months returned to Ramos Mija to have the prosthesis fitted,

01:38and after weeks, a month, he came back here to Roca to do rehabilitation.

01:41The progress is slow, as we had been warned, but it is steady.

01:53His parents, brother, and some friends take turns caring for him, and people show him respect

02:01and affection.

02:08The government accused him of being a dangerous extremist, but did they talk to them?

02:18Absolutely no one from the national government.

02:21Nothing more than the media messages released by Bullrich Adorni,

02:24who is pathetic, claiming that we cut off communication.

02:26We never cut anything off because no communication was ever established.

02:35If anyone cut off communication, it was Bullrich's lies,

02:39who lied from the outset and continues to lie.

02:45Photographers continue to be the preferred target of the repressive forces

02:51of the Argentinian current government.

02:52From Buenos Aires, for Telesur, Fabián.
