00:35And the Palestinian Resistance Commission warns that Israel has confiscated more than

00:3952,000 hectares in the occupied West Bank.

00:47Hello and welcome to From the South, I'm Alejandra Garcia from Telesur cities in Havana, Cuba.

00:52We begin with the news.

01:06In Venezuela, during the 25th ALBA-TCB political council, participants rejected the constant

01:12aggressions of the United States government against the missions of Cuban doctors and

01:16Pedro Caribe.

01:17During the event, Venezuelan Foreign Minister Iván Gil rejected the aggressions promoted

01:22by the Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, against the cooperation of Cuban

01:27doctors and the Pedro Caribe initiative, both of which have been beneficial for the development

01:33of the region.

01:34Gil also urged to progress in the strategic lines identified by the leaders who participated

01:41in the last presidential summit, held on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the founding

01:46of the organization.

01:47For his part, the Cuban Foreign Minister, Bruno Rodríguez, rejected the increasing

01:52unilateral coercive measures of Washington against the Caribbean island and several countries

01:58of the region.

02:05President Nicolás Maduro rejected the unilateral coercive measures imposed by the Trump administration

02:11against the Venezuelan productive system, condemning that these actions were requested

02:16by the Venezuelan extreme right wing.

02:18During the installation of the National Economic Council, President Maduro made a call to confront

02:23the economic war announcement promoted by the government of the United States and the

02:28Venezuelan extreme right wing.

02:30He also stated that Venezuelan migrants are victims of the sanctions and the economic

02:35war that forced them to emigrate.

02:38In this context, the Venezuelan head of state reiterated that in spite of the sanctions

02:42and the economic blockade, the Venezuelan people have achieved in the first quarter

02:47of the year an economic growth of 4.5% in the gross domestic product.

03:00In its opportunity, the criminal economic sanctions condemned by the entire Venezuelan

03:06public opinion were carefully requested by a few unspeakable individuals who have pretended

03:12and believed that by causing economic harm, and consequently causing social harm to their

03:17country, our country which belongs to all Venezuelans, they are going to have a bed

03:40of roses to reach political power in Venezuela and become the saviors in some cases of national

03:51history.

03:57Since the history we have lived through has shown that it is a crime against an entire

04:01country, against an entire society to have requested or supported sanctions against the

04:10economy and the healthy functioning of the national productive mechanism.

04:21Also the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, condemned the violation of human rights

04:25suffered by the Venezuelan migrants in El Salvador.

04:33Venezuelan migrants are doubly victims.

04:36In Venezuela, we're victims of the sanctions and the economic war that forced them to migrate

04:41as economic migrants, and now they're victims of an embarrassment by pretending to qualify

04:47them as members of a gang of murderers, the Trinidad-Aragua criminal group that was defeated

04:53in our country, and pretending to qualify, as the Nazis did with the Jews, all Venezuelan

04:59migration as a migration of criminals.

05:02This is not a migration of criminals.

05:05I come out in defense of Venezuelan migrants.

05:07It is an economic migration of decent, productive, working people.

05:18In El Salvador, Cristo Sal, a 25-year-old human rights organization, has issued a report

05:24deeming the deportation of Venezuelans from the United States to prisons in El Salvador

05:29as illegal.

05:30Moreover, they say the refusal by the administration of President Nayib Bukele to disclose the

05:35identity of the said prisoners is a violation of human rights, according to international

05:41law which tantamounts to a forced disappearance or kidnap.

05:45They argue that no person can be arrested in anonymity for it is a violation of basic

05:50rights like communicating with relatives and lawyers or receiving visitors while in prison.

06:00And now we have a short break coming up, but first remember you can join us on TikTok at

06:04TELUS or English, where you'll find news in different formats, news updates and more.

06:08We'll be right back, stay with us.

06:15Welcome back.

06:29Myanmar authorities reported that the death toll after the 7.7 magnitude earthquake exceeded

06:341,000 people.

06:35Authorities confirmed that the number of people injured is estimated to be over 3,000 in the

06:41Mandalay region, while in the towns of Sagaing and Kyakuse, at least 300 people have been

06:48reported missing under the rubble.

06:50The authorities also declared a state of emergency in the regions of Sagaing, Magwe, Shang, among

06:56others, for being the most affected by the disaster.

06:59Meanwhile, search and rescue efforts continue for those missing due to the collapse of buildings

07:05and cracks in the ground.

07:14The death toll will increase.

07:16In some places, buildings collapsed and rescue operations continue.

07:24I also went and checked.

07:26I would like to request our people to support and help us, as we need to provide rescue

07:31operations widely.

07:39I have declared a state of emergency in all affected regions and opened all assistance

07:44from other countries.

07:48Recently, there have been emergency aid from the AHA Centre, ASEAN Coordination Centre

07:56for Humanitarian Assistance on Disaster Management, and I allowed India to send aid to us.

08:08I would like to invite every organization, every people to provide aid.

08:17The governments of China and India sent emergency humanitarian aid to Myanmar after the earthquake

08:22that shook the country on Friday.

08:25The government of China allocated at least $14 million in aid, rescue equipment, emergency

08:30supplies, food and drinking water.

08:33Likewise, the Chinese Red Cross sent an initial batch of aid, including tents, sleeping blankets,

08:39folding beds and assistance packages for at least 2,000 affected families.

08:44For its part, the government of India sent its first batch of 15 tonnes of aid, which

08:49included rescue materials, tents, food, hygiene kits and essential medicines, as well as medical

08:55equipment.

08:56The authorities of these countries indicated that they will continue to send additional

09:01supplies to attend to the damage caused by the catastrophe.

09:07Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has sent his condolences to the families and

09:15people of Myanmar for the earthquake that hit the nation on Friday, March 28.

09:20The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations confirmed that about 120 rescue workers have

09:26been sent to the Southeast Asian.

09:29According to an official report, the Russian team includes personnel from the Airborne

09:34Unit, medical staff and canine teams who are collaborating with Myanmar authorities on

09:39rescue operations in their country.

09:53In other news, in Bolivia, the Ministry of Health launched a campaign aimed at facilitating

09:58the diagnosis of cervical cancer, the most common type of cancer in the country, using

10:02molecular technology.

10:04The aim is to detect the curable disease in time.

10:07Correspondent Fede Morales tells us the details.

10:13To the permanent campaign aimed at early detection of cervical cancer, the Bolivian government

10:19has added molecular technology that allows two diagnoses, called co-testing, to be performed

10:25in a single session.

10:26The sample collection is unique and allows us to perform the diagnosis with both tests

10:33in order not to inconvenience our patients and, especially, to give them the security

10:37of only taking the sample on a single occasion.

10:40With this reality, co-testing is practically accessible to all women.

10:50With the incorporation of new technology, it is hoped that women will be more confident

10:54in coming forward for the tests, which are recommended to be performed once a year.

11:03We only took the sample for the pap smear by looking at the cytology, the cellular characteristics

11:07that we could see in the tissue that we could see in the uterine cervix, and, in this case,

11:11what we do is to complement it with a molecular biology test.

11:14If we find the papillomavirus, we have the possibility of identifying the genotype, which

11:18is the main cause of cancer.

11:22For the time being, the new technology is applied at the Inlesa Institute, where samples

11:29are also received from all over the country, which are also taken and process-free of charge.

11:37The health personnel are trained so that they can make a correct sampling to make the molecular

11:41diagnosis because, nowadays, we are talking about molecular biology for the diagnosis

11:46of the human papillomavirus.

11:48And how do we combine this information with the pap smear?

11:57The state campaign against cervical cancer, in addition to free diagnosis, includes the

12:02vaccination of girls and boys from 12 to 15 years of age for prevention purposes and in

12:07the perspective of controlling the papillomavirus.

12:14This campaign is called 90-70-90.

12:17It is related to what really matters to us women.

12:20The measures for us are that 90-70-90.

12:26It's as simple as that.

12:27Those are our measures.

12:28It's 90% of girls vaccinated against human papillomavirus between the ages of 10 and

12:3315, 70% of women having a high-yield test at age 35 and again at age 45, and 90% of

12:41women with cervical disease receiving treatment.

12:50Cervical cancer affects more than 13,000 women each year.

12:54The male is the transmitting agent of the disease, which is why they are included in

12:58the vaccination program.

13:00To facilitate the fight against this disease, the government authorized, several years ago,

13:05that women should have a working day for the sole purpose of going for the test to detect

13:09the disease.

14:01The Palestinian Resistance Commission warns that Israel has confiscated more than 52,000

14:07hectares in the occupied West Bank in the midst of the commemoration of the 49th anniversary

14:11of the Land Day in Palestine.

14:14The organization denounced the illegal seizure of properties by Israel, in addition to the

14:18issuance of military orders for buffer zones around the settlements, while establishing

14:2416 new security checkpoints.

14:26The agency detailed that through these buffer zones, the Tel Aviv regime is attempting to

14:32prevent residents from accessing their homes.

14:36In an attempt to evict them from their land, dozens of Palestinians are forced to evacuate

14:41the area to protect their lives.

14:49In Palestine, Israeli forces killed six people during an airstrike on the Abbasan Al-Kabira

14:54area east of Kanjenis.

14:57Rescue teams worked to recover the victims trapped under the rubble, while the wounded

15:01were transferred to the emergency services.

15:04Since the resumption of the Israeli aggressions against the Gaza Strip on March 18th, more

15:09than 830 Palestinians have been reported dead and another 1,787 wounded.

15:16The resumption of hostilities aggravates the humanitarian crisis, which occurred after

15:20the prohibition of the entry of medical aid and supplies to the territory.

15:30The Israeli army attacked suburbs south of Beirut in a raid against a drone warehouse

15:35belonging to Hezbollah.

15:37The Israeli occupation issued an evacuation alert minutes before the attack, in an area

15:42of 300 meters around the intended target.

15:46Following the attack, Lebanese authorities warned that Israel is carrying out a dangerous

15:51escalation in southern Lebanon, while announcing the closure of schools in the targeted area.

15:56Tel Aviv justified its attacks as a response to alleged attacks carried out by the Lebanese

16:03resistance.

16:04However, senior Hezbollah commanders denied having participated in the alleged attacks

16:08against Israel.

16:16We were working in the factory and they sent a warning saying they would bomb there first.

16:22We were next to a school and the children started coming out.

16:26They were terrified, they bombed the area three times.

16:34People panicked, especially because there are two schools next to each other and the

16:38area is always crowded at that time, so people ran to get their children.

16:45In Italy, organizations warned that agriculture and livestock farming are at a critical stage

16:50due to the drought affecting south of the country.

16:53Through a press release, the Italian Confederation of Direct Farmers said the damages due to

16:59the current water crisis in four regions south of the country amount to 9 million euros.

17:05They also warned that the situation could worsen and spread to other areas of the country,

17:10so they have urged for an increase in rainwater harvesting capacity to warranty a supply for

17:17irrigation, livestock and hydroelectric power generation.

17:24In China, a fashion show focused on the traditional style of Guizhou province took place as part

17:42of the International Fashion Week in Beijing.

17:45On Friday, Miao and Dong youth from Qiandongnan paraded ethnic style jewelry and embroidered

17:52costumes, capturing the attention of the public.

17:55At least 12 brands contributed to the cultural event, where local designers had the opportunity

18:01to connect with the ancient traditions of their ancestors while showcasing oriental

18:06fashion and beauty through modern avant-garde designs.

18:13And like this we have come to the end of this brief but you can find this and many other
