In Argentina, the repression against journalists continues to manifest through intimidation, restricted access to information, and political pressure that undermines press freedom and the independent practice of journalism. teleSUR
00:00In Argentina, since the government of Javier Milley, 216 journalists have been attacked.
00:05Reporters have become the favorite target of repression.
00:09Let's see more information.
00:15On Wednesday, March 12th, during the ongoing protests by Argentina's retirees,
00:21reporter Pablo Grillo was about to take a photo of the scene that unfolds almost every Wednesday,
00:25a barricade on fire, and behind it, the repressive forces of the government.
00:28Pablo Grillo did not see that one of the gendarmes aimed at his head and fired, shattering his skull.
00:33Pablo is still recovering. His father tells us how.
00:42Pablita is much better. His progress is very good.
00:46We had a period where we were a little scared.
00:48He wasn't making progress because that's how it was, there was a peak, then he developed hydrocephaly.
01:01No, he's better. More proactive.
01:14He had a kind of delay, you would ask him something, and it would take him a while to answer.
01:18It has been seven months of ups and downs, as the reporter lost a significant amount of brain matter in the shooting, requiring several operations.
01:34He stayed that way for a couple of months returned to Remus Mija to have the prosthesis fitted,
01:39and after weeks, a month, he came back here to Roca to do rehabilitation.
01:49The progress is slow as we had been warned, but it is steady.
01:52His parents, brother, and some friends take turns caring for him, and people show him respect and affection.
02:02Yes, yes. Thank you, friend. I thank you very much. Thank you, thank you.
02:09The government accused him of being a dangerous extremist, but did they talk to them?
02:14Absolutely no one from the national government.
02:22Nothing more than the media messages released by Bullrich Adorni, who is pathetic claiming that we cut off communication.
02:32We never cut anything off because no communication was ever established.
02:36If anyone cut off communication, it was Bullrich's lies, who lied from the outset and continues to lie.
02:44The and the photographers continue to be the preferred target of the repressive forces of the Argentinian current government.
