00:00Welcome back to From the South, and we will continue in Venezuela, where the World Loaf

00:09Fascist Festival continues on its last day, a day after the inauguration of President

00:15Nicolás Maduro for the term 2025-2031.

00:19Our special envoy, Juno Sonner, has all the details, and he's live from Caracas.

00:25Welcome, Juno.

00:26Hello.

00:28Hello, good afternoon from the La Carota Convention Center.

00:32It's a little bit noisy around me, loud music, because President Nicolás Maduro has just

00:39arrived at this convention center, I'm informed.

00:43Or it is expected to arrive.

00:46But let's take a moment still to discuss with our special guest here the situation

00:53of fascism, global fascism.

00:58And we have a guest here that is from Greece.

01:04We have the guest, Aris Georgios.

01:08Thank you very much for joining us.

01:10Fascism is a huge topic in Europe as well.

01:14How do you perceive fascism from a Greek perspective?

01:20Well, Greece is known for its democracy, for its ancient times, but in modern times Greece

01:26has been a victim of fascism.

01:28It has been a victim of Nazi German occupation and their collaborators and military dictatorships

01:34later.

01:35So we have a very clear outlook on fascism and the imposing of imperialism and fascism

01:43in Greece from abroad.

01:46Now in Europe there is an emerging far right which has a totally new characteristic.

01:51They are trying to hide and abolish their neo-fascist roots, but still they support

02:00anti-immigration, Zionism, racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, machismo, sexismo and so on.

02:11So at this moment I think that this congress is really inspiring.

02:15That was exactly what I was going to ask you about.

02:19How is your impression about this international, anti-fascist international?

02:23You see, in one word, inspiring.

02:26So at the same time when you have the neo-liberal globalization which is the status quo of things

02:34for the past 20 years and at the same time you have an emerging global far right that

02:40has, as I said, new characteristics.

02:42It's very important to note that there are countries that resist imperialism and fascism

02:49such as Venezuela and also to meet each other and give support and receive support from

02:58one another, all the comrades from all the countries that resist.

03:02I mean, I can only say that I've gained so much and I've gained so much courage from

03:08this congress and we welcome the hospitality.

03:11Thank you very much.

03:12Thank you very much.

03:13Now this is an impression that our guest has expressed, but that we also got from other

03:19people, other participants, delegates here on the conference that the existence and the

03:26victory of the Bolivarian revolution here in Venezuela has influences, has consequences

03:34beyond its borders providing hope.

03:37Venezuela has with this conference itself established as a center of global fight against

03:44fascism which this congress, this international global festival has emphasized and showed,

03:52displayed once again.

03:53You have the word.

03:55Thank you, Yunus, for the information and also the special guest that we have today.

04:01Thank you very much.

04:04And now we continue with the news.

04:06In Palestine, Israeli occupation forces killed at least 32 civilians and injured 193 others

04:13across Gaza in the past 48 hours.

04:16Spokespersons for Gaza's civil defense said that Israel aims to kill as many civilians

04:22and medical personnel as it can as it continues its devastating war.

04:29In this context, three Israeli military infantry battalions will be sent to reinforce troops

04:35numbers in the north of the occupied West Bank.

04:39In this context, Palestinian viewers, this Saturday, two photojournalists and Amjad who

04:54was assassinated while reporting the reality of the Israeli war against the population

05:00of the Gaza Strip.

05:01The Palestinian Journalists Union has called on the international community and world organizations

05:07to put pressure on Israel to stop its aggressions in the coastal enclave.

05:12With all word, they reiterate their commitment to continue reporting the truth and exposing

05:19them apparent in the crimes of the occupation.

05:21According to their government media office in the Gaza Strip, since some 203 journalists

05:27have been killed by Israel since October 7, 2023.

05:32This is a known policy used by the Israeli occupation.

05:39It, Israel, cannot rest as long as Palestinian journalists continue to expose its crimes

05:45to the world.

05:46We, as journalists, are demanding the protection that is supposed to be a guaranteed.

05:56We wear a press vest, yet we still find no protection or an environment conducive for

06:01us to do our job.

06:04We are being directly targeted, as it was the case with Said and many other colleagues

06:09who were martyred over the past 15 months of this Israeli war.

06:15In Palestine, a body was recovered after Israeli shelling in the town of Qusaha east of Qanyounis

06:23in the southern Gaza Strip.

06:25Moreover, several bodies have disappeared as a result of the meltdown due to the amount

06:31of explosives fired by the Israeli army.

06:34In the first nine days of 2025, Israeli forces killed an estimated 490 Palestinians.

06:44Palestinian authorities announced a worsening of the humanitarian crisis.

06:53Food and medicine shortages are due to Israel's impediment to entry of humanitarian aid to

07:00the Gaza Strip.

07:01The United Nations organization warns that a war in the Gaza Strip has a catastrophic

07:06impact on children and their families because they do not have safe spaces to seek shelter.

07:14In Syria, residents denounced incursions by the Israeli occupation army from the border

07:25to the Al-Dariyat military post.

07:28Israeli occupation entered villages in southwestern Syria with tanks, Kalam, and trained the abandoned

07:35facilities of the Syrian Southern Army tanks brigade in Quneitra.

07:40According to the civilian testimony, Israeli armored vehicles and bulldozers began rising

07:45and plundering land to create a military road and facilitate Saudi's invasion of the territory.

07:58According to the UN, the world has experienced an average temperature increase of more than

08:031.5 Celsius over the past two years.

08:07A symbolic limit set by the Paris Agreement to Combat Climate Change.

08:12The Copernicus European Climate Observatory has confirmed that 2024 was the warmest year

08:19since records began in 1850.

08:24According to UN Secretary-General António Guterres, the situation calls for drastic climate actions.

08:49Don't go away.

08:57Welcome back.

08:58In South Korea, thousands gathered on Saturday in rival demonstrations in the capital as

09:03investigators prepared another attempt to arrest impeached President Jung Suk-il over

09:09his short-lived martial law decree.

09:12The rallies took place despite freezing temperatures in Seoul after the president received an arrest

09:18last week.

09:19Jung faced criminal charges of insurrection for ordering the seizure of the National Parliament

09:26on December 3, 2024, to unsuccessfully prevent deputies from voting against the martial law

09:31promoted by the executive.

09:32The court said January 14th as the date for the beginning of the trial of the head of

09:37state, which would take place even in his absence, and from which he could be sentenced

09:42to prison or even death.

09:44The U.S. Attorney's Office requests the sentence of at least 15 years in prison against former

09:57Democrat Senator Bob Menendez after he was accused of bribery and corruption.

10:02The demand of the U.S. Attorney's Office comes after Menendez was found guilty on July 16,

10:092024, of the 16 charges against him.

10:12According to the document presented to the court, the U.S. politician abused his power

10:16as a senator, damaging the public trust and involved other officials in his acts of corruption.

10:24For his part, Menendez pleaded not guilty of all charges and has occurred to delay his

10:30sentencing until the trial of his wife is completed for the same cases.

10:52Moving on, in the United States, volunteers set up a pop-up community donation center

10:58in Pasadena to provide water, food, clothing and essential supplies to those affected by

11:07the earthquake that erupted on Tuesday.

11:10The initiative started on Wednesday when a small group of volunteers began distributing

11:16hot dogs to firefighters and things to social media.

11:19It quickly evolved into a full-scale donation effort.

11:24Los Angeles is being avenged by five different big blazes.

11:29The largest, the Palisades Fire, northwest of nation's second most populous city, has

11:37consumed 86 square kilometers.

11:39The second, at 56 square kilometers, is the Ethan Fire in Altadena.

11:45Authorities say the fires are 8 percent and 3 percent contained prospectively.

11:51The three much smaller blazes have been partially contained.

11:54Today, at least 11 people were known to have died.

12:04Russia's defense ministry said that approximately 13,370 Ukrainian soldiers were killed in at

12:13least the last week.

12:15The Russian army reported that over the last week it carried out 28 guided weapons and

12:21drone strikes on a military airfield, facilities, ammunition depots, factories and drone workshops

12:28in Ukraine.

12:36Russian Kursk region, where Ukrainian forces lost over 2,835 soldiers.
