00:41Hello welcome from the south, I'm Luis Alberto Matos from the Lesotho studios in Havana,
00:46Cuba.
00:47Let's begin the news.
01:05And thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in several cities around the world
01:08to protest against the violence in the Middle East.
01:11In the United States, hundreds of people protested in front of the White House to demand an end
01:15to the war in Gaza.
01:17Participants gathered to cry out against the aid sent by the United States to Israel, which
01:21for them has made the country complicit in a genocide.
01:24With shouts of free Palestine, demonstrators called for an end to the war on the eve of
01:28the one-year anniversary of the October 7th Israeli offensive in Gaza, which has already
01:33left more than 41,000 dead.
01:39And in Israel, the Forum of Hostages, Families and other organizations called this October
01:445th for protests in Tel Aviv against the government.
01:47At least 500,000 demonstrators gathered to request the shutdown of Prime Minister Benjamin
01:52Netanyahu's government.
01:54Protesters demanded that an agreement with the Palestinian Resistance should no longer
01:57be delayed to allow the quick and safe return of hostages.
02:01In addition to Tel Aviv, where police arrested five people, massive demonstrations were reported
02:06in cities such as Jerusalem, Haifa and Rehovot.
02:10According to the press reports, on Capon Street, anti-government protesters blamed
02:14Netanyahu for obstructing the negotiations and pointed out that the head of the forum
02:17is doing it to keep his cabinet intact.
02:21The people here, they want peace, they want quiet, and this war with this government would
02:31never achieve the goals of the people.
02:35Only the goals of the government, of staying in government, that's the only thing they
02:42care about.
02:43Yes, absolutely, he's the only one that benefits from the war.
02:49Look, many opponents, many demonstrators, they know the war is worthless.
02:55They know the war causes severe damage to Israel, but still they would send their kids
03:02to risk their life for Netanyahu and fight in his war.
03:06They know that.
03:08Also in Israel, one person has been killed and another ten people wounded at a shooting
03:12incident in the city of Be'er Sheva.
03:15According to authorities, the shooting occurred at three locations around a bus station, a
03:21fast food outlet, at a nearby cafeteria and at an entrance.
03:26Police officers gunned down the shooter and deployed reconnaissance teams in search of
03:29other possible asylums.
03:31According to emergency respondents, several people with serious injuries were taken to
03:34the nearest hospital.
03:35Gun attacks in Israel have increased in recent weeks amid riot simulations over a rejection
03:41of the genocide operation undertaken by the Israeli government in the Gaza Strip.

04:17an extermination against the people of the Gaza Strip.
04:25Protesters marched this October 5th on the streets of Quito, Ecuador, demanding a halt
04:30to the genocide in Gaza and afford the United States to stop Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
04:34Netanyahu.
04:35Holding Palestinian and Lebanese flags, the activists called for an end to a conflict
04:39that threatens to escalate to unpredictable levels.
04:42According to a TOCA Sultan member of the Unitary Actions Committee for Palestine in Ecuador,
04:47the march represented the feeling that exists in the world to demand a stop to Israel's

05:04The tour continued to the Palace of La Moneda, where demonstrators paid homage to the 17,000
05:10children killed in the Israeli war.
05:13This activity intends to make visible the international solidarity and the commitment
05:17with justice besides demanding an end to the hostilities of Tel Aviv in the Gaza Strip.
05:26In Spain, more than 40 cities joined the world in a day of demonstrations in favor of the
05:30Palestinian cause after a year of genocide and 76 years of Israeli colonization.

06:36Welcome back.
06:54In Lebanon, authorities reported a series of at least 30 new Israeli attacks on southern
06:59Beirut.
07:00According to Al Mayadeen, two Israeli bombings targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut.
07:04In addition, two more strikes were carried out in the Shouefat area, also located in
07:09the southern suburbs of the capital.
07:10Likewise, one of the attacks took place on the airport road near the Golden Plaza Hotel
07:15behind the Burj Al-Baran Palestinian Refugee Camp.
07:19A gas station was also raged, triggering a powerful explosion.
07:22So far, local sources report major infrastructural damage as part of the Israeli criminal actions
07:27against Lebanon's territory.
07:33And the United Nations Children's Organization says over 100 children have been killed in
07:39Lebanon by the Israeli bombardments.
07:41According to health authorities, the Israeli escalation in Lebanon has claimed the lives
07:44of over 100 children, and another 690 people have been wounded over the last month.
07:50They have also reported on over 400,000 children having been displaced from their homes.
07:57UNICEF warns that children are enduring both physical and psychological damage in the midst
08:02of the Israeli aggression.
08:03Therefore, UNICEF says it has activated some 50 shelters in Lebanon to support children
08:08affected by the bombings.
08:16The Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah denounced the false news spread by some media
08:20outlets regarding the fate of its senior leaders following the brutal Israeli raids on the
08:24southern suburbs of Beirut.
08:25In a statement, Hezbollah pointed out that they felt false news concerning the organizational
08:30status of a number of senior leaders is part of the psychological and moral warfare against
08:35the people by Israeli supporters.
08:41On the resistance movement, Hezbollah reportedly prevented Israeli army forces from crossing
08:45the Lebanese border.
08:46In a sense, the movement attacked the places of gathering of the enemy in the area of the
08:52Manara settlement, forcing the occupants to withdraw from their position.
08:56According to Israeli sources, the occupation forces continued to evacuate their casualties
09:00and wounded on the ground.
09:07Meanwhile in Palestine, more than 11,000 citizens were arrested in the last 12-month incursions
09:13by the Israeli occupation forces.
09:17Organizations defending the rights of Palestinian prisoners warned that in the last hours, 15
09:21citizens were arrested in territories of Hebron, Bethlehem, Tul Karem, and Tobaz.
09:25The organizations denounced that during the Israeli incursions practices such as the destruction
09:29of houses, the mistreatment of citizens, and extrajudicial assassinations are carried out.
09:35These actions are part of the expansionist policy of Tel Aviv in the occupied territories,
09:39which have intensified since October 7, 2023, and have left 741 citizens murdered at the
09:45hands of the army, the police, and the Israeli settlers.
09:54In Palestine, authorities also reported the collapse of the health system due to Israeli
09:58occupation attacks.
10:00Health officials reported that out of the 38 hospitals in the Gaza Strip, only 15 are
10:05still partially operational in the territory.
10:08They also stated that since the beginning of the aggression by the Israeli forces, at
10:11least 986 members of the health sectors have been killed.
10:15In addition, some 130 ambulances were out of service as a result of the Zionist army's
10:20incursions.
10:21On the other hand, the health authorities announced that the Israeli siege against Gaza
10:25has left almost 42,000 Palestinians killed and more than 96,000 wounded.
10:33Also, in Palestine, at least 30 people were killed and 150 wounded as a result of new
10:40airstrikes by the Israeli occupation in the north of the Gaza Strip.
10:44According to local sources, dozens of civilians have also been reported missing as a result
10:48of the bombardment carried out by Israeli army planes.
10:51It was informed that 18 of the mortal victims were killed following an Israeli attack against
10:56a mosque sheltering displaced civilians.
10:59Authorities also stated that infrastructure in the area was severely damaged and rescuers
11:03are still carrying out search operations.
11:06This new strike adds to the multiple aggressions of the Labif that have so far left more than
11:1141,000 dead and 96,000 wounded since October 7, 2023.
11:23Palestinian authorities previously reported that the Israeli army attacked a United Nations
11:27organization center in the Gaza Strip under the pretext that the facility served as a
11:32base for the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas.
11:35According to local media, Tel Aviv regime's air forces carried out the attack on a building
11:39that formerly served as the center of the United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees
11:44in the Middle East.
11:46The Palestinian authorities also condemned this act and affirmed that they will continue
11:50to fight despite the multiple bombardments of the Zionist army in their territory.
11:54So far, no deaths or injuries have been reported after this strike, but civilians and local
11:58authorities keep looking for fatal victims.
12:05And the Israeli occupation forces carried out an attack on Ibn Rushd School, which was
12:11used to shelter displaced Palestinian families in the city of Al Zawada in the central Gaza
12:16Strip.
12:17Similarly, the Zionist occupation forces have committed three massacres in the last 24 hours
12:21against families in the Gaza Strip, killing at least 23 Palestinians and wounding 66 others.
12:27According to a statement issued by the United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees in the
12:31Near East, school buildings have been used as temporary shelters to house a significant
12:35number of displaced people.
12:36However, Israel's genocidal aggravations have included a large wave of attacks on schools,
12:41further aggravating the humanitarian situation experienced by the Palestinian people.
