00:00The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, rejected the criminalization of Venezuelan
00:15migrants by the United States and demanded the release of migrants kidnapped in concentration
00:19camps in El Salvador.
00:25The Fourth International Colloquium Patria continues this Tuesday in Cuba with the presentation
00:29of a documentary soundtrack to a coup d'etat by Johan Grimoire.
00:35The event began on March 17 with the participation of nearly 400 national and foreign guests
00:39from 47 countries.
00:46And in Palestine, the Israeli regime broke the ceasefire agreement and launched heavy
00:49airstrikes against the Gaza Strip, killing over 400 people.
00:55Hello, welcome to From the South, I'm Luis Alberto Matos from Televisu Studios in Caracas,
01:03Venezuela.
01:04We begin with the news, stay with us.
01:18In Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro denounced the fascist and Nazi measures of the United
01:22States and demanded the release of migrants kidnapped in concentration camps in El Salvador.
01:27The Venezuelan head of state rejected the criminal actions against Venezuelan migrants
01:31in the United States promoted by the fascist extreme right wing.
01:35Maduro asserted that all efforts are being made to rescue those who have been kidnapped
01:39by the Nazi government of the United States and who have created these concentration camps
01:43to violate their human rights in El Salvador.
01:46In this context, the president demanded that the government of Nayib Bukele cease the cruelty
01:50and injustice against Venezuelan migrants.
01:59It cannot be that a person for being Venezuelan is captured, kidnapped without the right to
02:05defense, without the right to due process, without conviction, a Venezuelan is sent to
02:12a concentration camp in the United States and has been sent to Nazi concentration camps.
02:19In El Salvador, I asked the president Nayib Bukele, publicly president with respect.
02:26I said to him, you said you're going to stop this cruelty, this injustice, without the
02:32right to any process of creating concentration camps and putting noble migrants, hardworking,
02:40good people in jails, without trial, without having committed crimes.
02:46In El Salvador, without any type of penalty issued by a court of El Salvador.
02:52Is this legal?
02:53Is it fair?
02:54Is a human Nayib Bukele?
02:59In this regard, Albatizep condemned the implementation by the United States of the alien enemy law
03:05and the kidnapping of Venezuelan migrants.
03:07In a communicated state, the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of America, People's Trade
03:11Treaty, expresses its most energetic rejection and condemnation of the U.S. government's
03:16decision to invoke the Alien Enemy Act of 1798, a norm that has only been used in war
03:23contexts and is now being used arbitrarily to justify systematic persecution against
03:27the Venezuelan migrant community.
03:29Further on, they add, even more alarming is the use of third countries as extrajudicial
03:34detention centers in a practice that represents a crime against humanity.
03:38The organization also explained that in view of this grave situation, Albatizep urges the
03:43international community to take a firm stand against this policy of aggression and reiterates
03:48its unwavering support for the people and government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
04:00And the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, led the solemn act from the National Pantheon
04:04where they recognized the invaluable contributions of Dr. Humberto Fernández Morán.
04:09During the ceremony, the Venezuelan president stressed the importance of vindicating the
04:12life and work of Dr. Fernández Morán by encouraging the new generations of the country
04:17to learn about the work of the scientists as part of the reaffirmation of the Venezuelan
04:22identity.
04:23He also pointed out that Dr. Humberto Fernández Morán left an indelible mark on Venezuelan
04:28and world science thanks to his invaluable contribution to the development of the electron
04:33microscope.
04:34He highlighted that Dr. Fernández Morán is one of the greatest examples of human potential
04:38taken to its maximum expression.
04:48When you see in your homes, in your schools, in your universities, yesterday, in your communities,
04:56the life of this man, Humberto Fernández Morán, you will be able to give meaning to
05:02my words that in Humberto Fernández Morán, we have one of the most immense and gigantic
05:10examples of human potential taken to its maximum expression based on ethics, morals, human
05:18conviction and Bolivarianism.
05:21He was a man of deep convictions.
05:29He lived more than half of his life outside the country, and he was an exemplary Venezuelan.
05:36Where he was he left, well, standing the flag of Venezuela, the name of Venezuela, and despite
05:43having lived so long out of the country for different circumstances, desires of study
05:50abroad, or persecution within the country, misunderstanding that led to another scientific
06:02center, he never and never spoke ill of his beloved Venezuela, never spoke ill of Venezuela,
06:10never made a gesture against Venezuela, never asked for evil for Venezuela, ever.
06:18On the contrary.
06:19And in Honduras, at least 12 people died after a commercial airliner crashed in the Caribbean
06:28Sea.
06:29Authorities also report five survivors and one missing person.
06:32According to preliminary information, the aircraft, which was destined for La Ceiba,
06:35made a sharp turn during takeoff and fell into the sea near the runway of the Juan Manuel
06:40Alves Airport in Ruatán.
06:42The national police reported that the rescue teams continued their work and there is only
06:46one body left to be rescued, which according to the fire department would be the pilot
06:50of the plane.
06:51The Honduran Civil Aeronautics Agency instructed an investigating commission to carry out preliminary
06:55investigations on the possible causes of the accident.
07:13And the fourth edition of the International Colloquium Patria opened on Monday in Havana
07:17as journalists, communicators and representatives of media outlets gathered to address the challenges
07:22of digital communication.
07:23Our correspondent in Havana, Belén de los Santos, has all the details from that first
07:27day.
07:29The fourth edition of the International Patria Colloquium has kicked off in Havana, an event
07:35that gathers journalists, influencers and the collective experience from media outlets
07:39from across the global south to think about present challenges in digital communication.
07:45This edition also celebrates Celestor's 20th anniversary as the news platform Ambition
07:50by Chávez and Fidel reviews its milestones in two decades of journalism thought from
07:55a people's perspective.
07:56We have to make a profound reflection and stop thinking of ourselves as competitors,
08:06but also as collaborators and decisively and consciously work on common agendas.
08:14To work in ideological exercises about what is important for the landless workers movement
08:21in Brazil that I see them here.
08:25That their struggle agenda be also important for the community newspaper of Jujuy in Argentina,
08:32for a Chinese newspaper in Beijing and of course for a multi-platform such as Telesur.
08:42Among the main topics of discussion at this edition of the Patria Colloquium is the building
08:46of sovereign digital platforms and technologies that allow critical and anti-capitalist thought
08:52to be fostered and shared.
08:54That is to say, to imagine a technological future in which digital discourse is not dependent
08:59on capitalist platforms.
09:01We need to create our own political horizon, technological horizon that we have to challenge
09:08this idea that this way of doing politics is the only way and the only ones that could
09:16think about the future is the technocapital or the big corporations.
09:20I think we can do that and we have to do it quite fast.
09:25In CMG we have developed many good technologies and so we would like to take this Patria as
09:35a platform and we would like to share our technology with all the other countries and
09:41we would like to make the improvement together.
09:45From Palestine to Africa and South America, for the participants of this event, the discussion
09:50goes beyond viral trends and news coverages.
09:53Coming together in Havana is the possibility to coordinate collaborative efforts to rethink
09:58the global scene by looking at the world from the perspective of the popular movements of
10:03our territories.
10:04In a way, the movements are the source and the point is to look into those movements,
10:09who is saying the interesting things, who is thinking beyond the immediate problem and
10:14trying to generalize and find a way forward and then to try to create a kind of global
10:20left culture out of that, have those people talking to each other, sharing experiences
10:24and so on.
10:25We are people's weaving networks.
10:27Those are the words that accompany this edition of Patria.
10:31And it is in those connections, the sharing of common experiences and agendas, that lays
10:36the true power of the future of digital communication.
10:40Belén de los Santos, Denisse Aravi, for Telesur Havana, Cuba.
10:46The United States will release new pages of classified files on the assassination of John
10:50F. Kennedy.
10:51The current President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced that there are approximately
10:5480,000 pages on the killing of the 35th President of the North American country.
11:00In late January, President Trump signed an order to declassify files on the 1960s murders
11:05of Robert F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.
11:10Noting that it is in the national interest to make public all records relating to these
11:13assassinations without delay.
11:33We're at the Kennedy Center.
11:35It needs a lot of work.
11:36We're going to fix it, make it beautiful.
11:37It's a very big part of the fabric of D.C. and the Capitol.
11:41We're bringing back the Capitol.
11:42We're bringing back our country.
11:45But while we're here, I thought it would be appropriate.
11:47We are tomorrow announcing and giving all of the Kennedy files.
11:57So people have been waiting for decades for this.
12:00And I've instructed my people that are responsible.
12:06Lots of different people put together by Tulsi Gabbard.
12:12And that's going to be released tomorrow.
12:16We have a tremendous amount of paper.
12:21You've got a lot of reading.
12:22I don't believe we're going to redact anything.
12:24I said, just don't redact.
12:25You can't redact.
12:27But we're going to be releasing the JFK files.
12:42Also in the United States, extreme fire conditions are expected to sweep
12:47from the Texas Panhandle into western Oklahoma on Tuesday,
12:50putting officials on high alert for potential wildfires.
12:53Similar weather conditions affected the region last week,
12:56and Oklahoma officials say at least four people have died.
12:59In addition, the City Department of Emergency Management said Sunday night
13:02that more than 400 homes were damaged statewide.
13:06As Oklahomans assess the devastation to their homes and property,
13:09officials warn of an increased risk of fire danger in the coming week.
13:22We have a second short break coming up.
13:25♪♪♪
13:49Welcome back.
13:50Israel has ended the ceasefire in Gaza and has so far killed 412 people.
13:55Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday
13:58that he has instructed the army to resume attacks on Gaza.
14:01He claimed that this decision was due to the fact that the resistance movement Hamas
14:05has repeatedly refused to release Israeli detainees.
14:08The Gaza Civil Defense Agency announced that a series of Israeli attacks
14:11consisting of aerial bombardment and artillery fire have injured 562 people.
14:20One of the massacres perpetrated by the Israeli regime
14:31came after bombing hundreds of displaced people's tents in al-Mawassi, west of Hanounis.
14:36The attacks followed a deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza,
14:39where Israel has blocked the entry of all aid and goods for more than two weeks.
14:44Since the beginning of their genocidal campaign in October 2023,
14:47the occupation forces killed more than 48,572 citizens,
14:52most of them children and women, and injured more than 112,000 people.
15:05In the United States, the White House confirmed
15:07that it was notified in advance of Israel's latest attack on the Gaza Strip.
15:11The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump said
15:13that the regime of Benjamin Netanyahu consulted with the White House
15:16about the attacks that occurred between the night of March 17th and the early hours of March 18th.
15:21Earlier, President Trump sent a threatening message to Hamas and its allies
15:25saying that all those who seek to harm not only Israel, but also the United States,
15:29will have to pay a price.
15:31In the early hours of Tuesday morning, the Israeli occupation broke the ceasefire agreement
15:34and shelled areas of the Gaza Strip on the orders of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
15:51UNICEF warns of precarious situation of one million children in Gaza.
15:56According to the United Nations Children's Fund,
15:58the lack of supplies after two weeks of blockade by Israel
16:00has led to a precarious situation for the young.
16:03The organization's West Asian office has said that one million children in Gaza
16:08are struggling to survive without basic commodities
16:11and hundreds of thousands are without clean water and sanitation.
16:15Since last March 2nd, the Israeli Prime Minister ordered to block the entry
16:19of all humanitarian aid to Gaza after the expiration of the first phase of the truce.
16:35And during the night of this Monday, the United States carried out a new bombing
16:38against the coastal area of Yemen, including the capital city of Sanaa.
16:42As a result of these new airstrikes,
16:44the Al-Habashi iron factory in Al-Salif district was destroyed
16:47and Houthi positions in Al-Hudaida province were attacked.
16:51In response, Houthis claim to have successfully attacked the USS Harry Truman aircraft.
16:57This new action comes on a day when the Yemeni population came out in protest
17:02to denounce the attacks by Washington that have caused the death of more than 50 people
17:06in the last few days.
17:14Also, Yemeni Armed Forces announced its third attack on the USS aircraft carrier Harry Truman.
17:20The United States aircraft carrier was targeted in the northern Red Sea
17:24with two cruise missiles and drones.
17:26According to the spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Jaya Sadi,
17:29the targeting was the third in the past 48 hours,
17:32and the enemy was struck by a state of confusion,
17:35which prompted many of its warships to retreat.
17:38The Yemeni Armed Forces affirmed that they will not cease targeting all hostile targets
17:42in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea until the aggression against their country stops.
