02:49without the right to anything the conditions in which they are inside that concentration camp
02:59are only comparable to the conditions in which the jews were kept in the nazi concentration camps
03:06so bukel he himself threw a historical stain on himself that he will not overcome in centuries

04:04expected effect
04:13and brazilian president luis ennácio silva signed a decree on monday authorizing the country to take
04:18reciprocal measures in response to the 50 percent tariff announced by donald trump on brazilian products
04:23the decree implements the so-called reciprocity law approved by congress in may and allows brazil to
04:29adopt diplomatic and trade countermeasures if negotiations to avoid the u.s tariff fail
04:33the law prioritizes diplomatic resolution but empowers the government to impose proportionate
04:38restrictions if no agreement is reached brazilian officials have begun confrontations with exporters

05:37on the lists there are no elections we are not afraid they will see
05:45la señora ruth nina offered her party's acronym for morales to participate in the elections but the
05:52electoral tribunal annulled that party for not exceeding three percent support in the last
05:56elections we have decided that on august 17 we prefer to give our lives before allowing them to
06:06come and force us to elect their right-wing candidates on that day brothers the electoral
06:18tribunal and the government instead of counting votes will count the dead that is what will happen
06:22if they attack our indigenous communities if they force us to want to vote for them
06:32the ministry of government warned that these threats constitute a crime
06:35and requested that other institutions such as the public prosecutor's office and the judiciary
06:39join in prosecuting mr's nina
06:41our commitment as national government as ministry of government and as bolivian police is to safeguard
06:50the entire electoral process in our country evidently there is a competition of crimes from these

08:32welcome back
08:51welcome back heavy rain swept across the u.s northeast on monday night triggering flash flood in parts of new
08:57new york and new jersey that stranded vehicles closed subway lines which led to declare a state of
09:02emergency flash flood watches and warnings were issued for sections of new jersey new york pennsylvania
09:08nearby areas of slow moving storms brought rainfall rates of up to 7.6 centimeters per hour with some
09:15flooding reaching depth of around 1.5 meters inside homes officials advise people to stay indoors and
09:22avoid unnecessary travels emergency responders dealt with flooded roads delayed transportation and stranded
09:27buses particularly in places west of the hudson river in new jersey the national water service
09:33highlighted the risk of repeated rounds of heavy downpours over already saturated areas
09:38raising the danger of significant and sudden urban flooding
09:41indonesian rescue teams are searching for 11 people still missing after a boat carrying 18
09:53passengers capsized in rough seas near the mentawai islands the coast of west sumatra on monday
10:00the vessel was traveling between the towns of sikakap and tuapachat when it encountered bad weather
10:06and overturned around 11 am local time so far seven people have been rescued including several
10:11local government officials who were among the passengers authorities have deployed two rescue
10:17boats and dozens of personnel to aid in the search which is being hampered by challenging sea conditions
10:23the latest accident follows a deadly ferry sinking earlier this month near valley that left 18 dead and 17 missing
10:30the emergency regime imposed in el salvador by president and yipu kelle has caused the lives of 427 people deprived of liberty
10:47but this figure is actually an undercount as the death could be more than a thousand this has been assured by the non-governmental organization socorro jurídico
10:56whose investigation also showed that 94 percent of these people did not have the profile of gang members
11:01the data come from the victims own relatives and have also shown that none of the deceased had been
11:07tried or convicted that is they died without knowing what they were accused of the situation is extremely
11:13worrying since according to official data the regime of president bukele keeps in prison about 88 000
11:19citizens which represents almost two percent of the population not counting the kidnapped foreigners
11:24and in peruan amnesty law that favors police and military personnel has been approved by congress
11:36is ready to be enacted by the government of that country more details in the report of our colleague ramir angolo
11:46in a second vote congress approved a law that amnesty's police and military officers who perpetrated crimes
11:51against humanity a fact that has been strongly questioned the justifications and reasons for
12:00approving such an unconstitutional illegal and unjust law are truly nauseating
12:11in the face of a congress that continues to legislate to benefit some groups such as the military police
12:16human rights violators or criminal mafias against the rights of the victims families
12:25this law affects about 150 sentences in 600 judicial proceedings that took place between 1980 and 2000
12:35during the internal armed conflict
12:36there is a regression of human rights there is a regression of human rights in peru there is an
12:44attack on human rights organizations and on those of us who defend promote and work for their
12:49fulfillment for their exercise in our country we are living in a context of not only permanent
12:57political crisis but also permanent attacks from a narrative that delegitimizes the work of human
13:02rights organizations but also ignores the existence of human rights and intends rather to go for a
13:11selective justice path y se pretende más bien ir por una vía de justicia selectiva quienes la
13:18promueven defienden a los perpetradores those promoting and defend the perpetrators by saying
13:24that they had no way of knowing that they were killing civilians which has provoked outrage
13:27indignation this is not about whether or not the victim was innocent it is about the fact that the
13:38forces of law and order have the obligation to guarantee the life and stability of every person
13:43and if they detained a person in the commission of a crime or if they detain him or her he or she is
13:48brought to justice to be judged and punished but in no way can it be accepted that they killed children
13:53because they thought they were terrorists a two-month-old child a two-year-old child that is
13:58incredible that does not justify what mr rospigliosi and all those in congress are doing
14:02lo que señor rospigliosi y todos los del congreso están haciendo
14:06debido a la desconfianza que hay en el tribunal
14:09due to the lack of confidence in the constitutional court the lawyers of the victims announced that they
14:13will inform the prosecutor's office and the judiciary so that the judges do not apply this law
14:18we have an executive that has no responsibility for human rights in general a minister of justice
14:28who has not been able to speak out against this proposal so they will surely approve it and what
14:32is most worrying is that this is a trial balloon to give amnesty for crimes from 1980 to 2000
14:42but then they will generate other amnesties for the investigations that are taking place for
14:45the deaths caused by this government between december 2022 and january 2023
14:59those affected will continue to fight in national and international courts to repeal this law of
15:03impunity this lady impunidad desde lima para telesur ramiro angulo maquiavelo

16:37unsecretary general antonio gutierrez reiterated on monday his call for an immediate ceasefire in gaza
17:00warning that the humanitarian crisis has reached dark dimensions
17:09but what we are witnessing gaza is a level of death and destruction that has no parallel
17:16in recent times and it is something that uh and the minds
17:23uh the i would say undermines the most basic conditions of human dignity for the population
17:36of gaza independently of the enormous suffering that they are having we absolutely need a permanent
17:43ceasefire in gaza and i hope that the parties are able to overcome the most parties are able to overcome
17:51the difficulties that they still find for that ceasefire to take place but this is fire is not enough
17:58it is essential that that ceasefire leads to a solution and that solution can only be possible
18:07if those palestinians and israelis can have a state where they can exercise their rights
18:14the idea and that is why we are going to have in july one conference on the two-state solution
18:20the idea that it would be possible to have five million people inside the country in their own
18:27lands without any rights is something that is totally against humanity and totally against international law
