03:29and sovereignty of the people.
03:31The reunion also addressed ways of strengthening bilateral cooperation in different areas of
03:36interests.
03:37Ethiopia joined the BRICS on January 2024 and is one of the economies of the African
03:41continent with the highest registered economic growth.

04:44The purpose of the meeting was to go over the cooperation map in progress, where the
04:49areas of food, trade, energy, education and air transport stand out.
04:54The reunion was also aimed at strengthening the broader relations between both nations.
05:00The last time the heads of state met was in 1817, during a visit of the Venezuelan leader
05:05to the European country.
05:15Also in the framework of the Kazan BRICS Summit, Iranian President Mahmoud Pakistan highlighted
05:21the strategic relationship existing between his nation and his nation Russia, during a
05:27speech where he also stressed the need for the end of U.S. totalitarianism in the world
05:33and the Western countries embargoing Iran.
05:36Our relationship with you is strategic and essential.
05:41This relationship is certainly very useful for us, just as it is important for our dear
05:46neighbor Russia.
05:48We can have constructive interactions within the framework of the BRICS, an organization
05:53of which we have become a permanent member thanks to your support.
05:58We hope that we can break the embargo that the United States has imposed on us and the
06:02totalitarianism that it has created in the world, that we can maintain political, economic,
06:08cultural and scientific relations with each other, and that we can quickly sign memorandums
06:13of understanding between our two countries.

06:23Minister Narendra Modi referred to the benefits of cooperation among member nations as well
06:29as India's commitment to enhance cooperation under the BRICS.
06:34Friends, in its new form, the BRICS economy exceeds 30 trillion dollars.
06:41The BRICS Business Council and the BRICS Women Business Alliance have played a special role
06:46in enhancing our economic cooperation.
06:48This year, the consensus reached among BRICS nations regarding WTO reforms, trade facilitation
06:54in agriculture, resilient supply chains, e-commerce and special economic zone will strengthen
06:59our economic cooperation.
07:01Amidst all these initiatives, we should also focus on the interests of small and medium
07:05enterprises.
07:08India is fully committed to enhancing cooperation under the BRICS.
07:11Our diversity and our strong belief in multipolarity are our strength.
07:15This strength of ours and shared belief in humanity will help in giving a meaningful
07:19shape to the prosperous and strong future of our future generations.

07:46In Palestine, the Health Ministry noted that death toll continues on the rise, amounting
07:51to 42,792 deaths and 100,412 injured in a year of Israeli genocide.
08:00The ministry detailed that Israeli strikes claimed 74 lives in the previous 24 hours.
08:08Even an employee of the United Nations Relief Work Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the
08:13region near the east was hit to death by the shelling.
08:16UNRWA members are the military targets of Israeli forces, as they said had passed two
08:25bills to stop the agency's humanitarian actions.
08:28But over the southern Kasani counties, Israelis also killed two Palestinians while in northern
08:35Gaza's Zionist forces hit hospitals and refuges, killing four people in the two-foot town and
08:42the other that got injured all were taken to Ol Ahali Hospital.
08:53In Israel, the human rights organizations B'Tselem denounced an ethnic cleansing in
08:59northern Gaza.
09:01The well-known Israeli NGO claims that the Ritalin-led offensive, in addition to serving
09:07thousands of people and depriving Sikhs of medical care at two levels that defied comprehension,
09:13has isolated northern Gaza from the world.
09:15The organization emphasized that it is clearer than ever that Israel intended to forcibly
09:22displace the residents of northern Gaza by committing some of the most serious crimes
09:28under international law.
09:37In Ankara, Turkish Interior Minister Aliyev Yerlikaya confirmed on Wednesday that terrorists
09:43attacked a leading Tuzla airspace company of the Karaman-Kasan district.
09:49The minister informed that a blast was followed by the gunfire, leaving as ill-lucked an inaccurate
09:58number of deaths and injuries.
10:00The company has been dedicated to manufacturing military aircraft and space equipment and
10:08is the main facility of the Turkish airspace industry in the capital.
10:24In Syria, Palestinians living in the country are honored with multiple activities.
10:28The Martyr Arnon Havmas leader, Yahya al-Sinwar, was assassinated last Friday by Israeli forces
10:34in southern Gaza.
10:35Our correspondent Hisham Wehnoos with the details.
10:42Palestinians living in Syria organized a condolence ceremony in the al-Yarmouk refugee camp south
10:47of Damascus, during which they highlighted the symbolism of Martyr Sinwar's decision
10:52to remain in Gaza during the war and praised the fact that, dressed in his military uniform
10:58and with rifle in hand, he fell a martyr while facing the occupation forces on the battlefield.
11:06With this act, besides honoring the martyrdom of our leader, we ratify that our people and
11:13all factions of the Palestinian resistance will continue with the support of their allies
11:17of the Axis of Resistance, the battle they are fighting against the American Zionist
11:21project that seeks to create a new Middle East and that not only attempts against Palestine,
11:25but also against all the countries of the region.
11:32We honor the memory of Yahya al-Sinwar, who was martyred while facing the occupation forces
11:36on the battlefield, in an action that fills us with pride and dignity and encourages us
11:40to continue the struggle, because contrary to the wishes of the enemy, the martyrdom
11:44of the resistance leaders does not cause us frustration, but makes us stronger and firmer.
11:53Yahya al-Sinwar, a key figure in the political and military leadership of Hamas, led Operation
12:01Al-Aqsa Deluge in defense of the Palestinian people, including those held hostage in occupation
12:06prisons.
12:07This was emphasized by Palestinian prisoner advocates at a sit-in protest they organized
12:12in front of the headquarters of the International Committee of the Red Cross Mission in Damascus.
12:18We will undoubtedly continue the path traced with the blood of the martyrs, headed by the
12:28leader of the resistance who fell while fighting in defense of our rights, and we assure to
12:32continue supporting by all means our brothers who fight against the occupation in defense
12:37of our brothers in Gaza.
12:43From here we ratify to follow the example of Sinwar, to sacrifice our lives in defense
12:47of our cause, and we assure that every child, every young person and every old person in
12:53Gaza, the West Bank and South Lebanon will be another Sinwar who will not stop fighting
12:58against the United States and Israel until the recovery of our lands and the liberation
13:03of our prisoners in Israeli jails.
13:08Meanwhile, the genocidal Israeli war continues unabated, especially against the northern
13:17Gaza, where the resistance fighters, guided by the example of their martyred leader, are
13:22boldly confronting the Zionist and American war machine.
13:25A totally different scenario from the claims of Washington and Tel Aviv that the resistance
13:29has been weakened by the martyrdom of Sinwar, and that there is now a chance to stop the
13:33war.

13:52Don't go away.
13:53Welcome back.
13:54In Mexico City, a group of women work in a profession historically dominated by men,
14:03auto mechanic.
14:04Let's see more details.
14:09Beatriz is an engineer in automotive mechanics.
14:12She has been working in the field for 20 years.
14:15The last three years, she has been dedicated to the Rosa Engineering Project, the first
14:19school and workshop for the training of women technicians.
14:25The respect to be able to do what you want without having that stigma, that if you are
14:28a man, you have to dedicate yourself to masculine jobs.
14:38If you are a woman, you have to dedicate yourself only to putting on clothes.
14:42In reality, it is a respect that generates social freedom.
14:50For Beatriz, the main challenge is to eliminate gender stereotypes.
14:57It is impossible for society to have a woman under a car in automotive repair.
15:03The most important thing is to incorporate women into the workforce in an industry that,
15:08for years, was led by men.
15:13Rosa Engineering is a workshop and a free school for the students, but also an opportunity
15:18for the students to achieve their dreams.
15:21In cars, I would love to get to where my dad was.
15:25He was a good chief racing mechanic, and I would love to be in racing.
15:29I would like to be more in the races than in the shop.
15:32The fact of traveling from one place to another in the states of the republic would fascinate
15:37me.
15:41Carmen joined the Rosa Engineering Academy two years ago.
15:44She was an outstanding student, and today she is a workshop worker.
15:48But it hasn't been easy.
15:51They still come to ask about the man, about the mechanic.
15:58In the project, I do believe that there are many people who trust us, even though it is
16:02a group of women.
16:03But outside, there are still issues.
16:05They always check my hands to see if they have been mistreated, to see if I have cuts,
16:10to see if I have a bruise or something, because they don't believe that I am doing this.
16:18At the end of this year, Rosa Engineering will participate in the Nody Auto Cup, taking
16:22the first racing team formed by women to one of the top racing circuits, the Autodrome
16:28Hermanos Rodriguez.
16:30For the students of the Academy of Automotive Mechanics, Rosa Engineering, one thing is
16:36very clear.
16:37It is easier to disassemble an engine than a prejudice.
16:40Antonio Aranda, TELESUR, Ciudad de Mexico.
16:57Moving on, in the wake of tropical storm Motrami in Philippine, rescuers are now wading
17:03through deep flooded waters to rescue residents trapped by the severe waters.
17:09Waves from the storm, which is approaching the country's east coast, have triggered
17:15widespread evacuations and devastating flooding.
17:18The racial rains associated with Trami have transformed streets into rivers, submerged
17:25entire villages and buried vehicles up to their dorsal handles.
17:30According to police reports, at least 32,000 people have been forced to flee their homes
17:36in the northern Philippines.
17:38The government has shut down schools and government offices, and storm warnings have been raised
17:46in multiple provinces, including the densely populated capital of Manila.
17:57The Indian capital, New Delhi, has been engulfed in thick aggregate smoke of the city's
18:04pollution levels, has been classified as hazardous due to the first time this winter.
18:13This severe air quality is largely attributed to the burning of farms in neighboring regions
18:21under use of fireworks, particularly in the lineup of the Hindu festival of Diwali on
18:27November 1st.
18:28Despite the hazardous conditions, no many residents were masked, highlighting the ongoing
18:34struggle along with air pollution in the city.
18:37The air quality is expected to deteriorate further as Diwali approaches, with smoking
18:43fireworks adding to the already toxic air.
18:46The combination of burning, vehicle pollution and industrial emissions has turned New Delhi's
18:54streets into a hell of a hard stop, prompting concern from both locals and national authorities.
