00:24In Peru, the Public Prosecutor's Office of Central Lima intervened in some offices of

00:38And South Korean protesters gathered near the residence of the impeached president,
00:43Jun Suk Yeo, to demand his detention after investigations called it off.
00:52Hello and welcome to From the South, I'm Ana Marrero from the TelevisiĂłn Headquarters
00:55in Caracas, Venezuela.
00:56To be with the news, stay with us.
01:14Overnight, Israelis serving drums have invaded Gaza Strip on Friday morning, so they killed
01:20around 30 Gazans, including children.
01:23At the Al-Ghazat Martyrs Hospital, the staff referred that tens of women and children were
01:29hit to death in the middle of the Gaza Strip, including in the Nusrat, Sawairat, Maghazi
01:36and Darabala areas.
01:38Meanwhile, Israeli forces issued an order to evacuate immediately the Indonesian hospital,
01:44which is full of women and children, some injured, who cannot even move in northern
01:49Gaza, whereas the regime keeps on firing nearby the care center.
01:54Currently, the Israeli army is bordering its operations in that zone.
02:00Nonetheless, both Israeli and Palestinian sides are negotiating a ceasefire, among other
02:06issues, with the mediating nations as Qatar and Egypt.
02:13We were sleeping in God's safety.
02:15We had nothing to do with anything.
02:16The people were all civilians.
02:18We woke up to the missile strike.
02:19We found the whole house disintegrated.
02:21The martyrs dismembered.
02:23The women and children dismembered.
02:24All civilians.
02:25The Israelis target only civilians.
02:30In Palestine, thousands of people flocked to a local clinic run by UNICEF, supported
02:36by RDE, all ins and out associations for medical check-ups for their malnourished children.
02:44By the end of August 2024, the United Nations found that nearly 15,000 children in the Gaza
02:49Strip were suffering from malnutrition, including 2,288 children with severe documented malnutrition,
02:58after screening some 240,000 children in the region.
03:03Displaced families reported an immunity among their children due to the hunger and malnutrition,
03:09increasing their vulnerability to cold, low waves.
03:13In addition, the number of dead among displaced people due to the freezing temperatures has
03:17increased in recent days.
03:25Palestinians reaffirmed their firm commitment to the struggle to regain their inalienable
03:31rights despite Israel's ongoing genocide attacks against the civilian population of the Gaza
03:36Strip.
03:37The resistance of Gazans in face of the Israeli war machine that has killed tens of thousands
03:46of people is evidenced by streets like 50-year-old Petrition and father of six, Dr. Khaled Al-Said.
03:55Khaled's neighborhood was attacked, resulting in injuries to his left leg that required
04:01amputation.
04:03Despite this injury and other challenges he has faced, Khaled remains committed to his
04:09work and continues his humanitarian mission with determination and dedication.
04:14He is currently working at the Al-Qasa Martyrs Hospital in the city of Derbala.
04:23I am Dr. Khaled Ahmed Al-Saidi from Al-Burij Camp in the central Gaza Strip.
04:29I work in Al-Qasa Martyrs Hospital.
04:32I was injured after the attack on our house in the area.
04:37I was displaced and took refuge in the hospital shortly after the war began.
04:42However, the area where my wife and children were was attacked, which led me to bring them
04:48to the hospital, where we have been since then.
04:52After the amputation, I spent some time unable to move because of the wound.
04:58I decided to go back to work because I believe that medicine is not only a profession, but
05:05also a humanitarian and service mission that cannot be abandoned.
05:10One must defy adversity, conditions and disabilities.
05:15My return to work was important not only for the patients, but for myself.
05:21Drinking water, contamination rates in the Gaza Strip has become a cause of concern in
05:27the midst of the genocidal siege launched by Israel.
05:30Authorities denounced that the Israeli army destroyed more than 80% of the sewage infrastructure,
05:37which caused leaks and contamination.
05:39It also warned about a lack of this vital resource in the enclave, which aggravates
05:45even more the humanitarian crisis, since more than 75% of the walls in the city were totally
05:51or partially damaged.
05:53The cuts to external supplies, the systematic destruction of facilities and the deliberate
05:58obstruction of aid have reduced the amount of water in Gaza by 94%.
06:09In Syria, the Zionist regime of Israel carried out several attacks in different areas of
06:14the country, including a factory of the Syrian defense industry.
06:18According to the media reports, Israeli warplanes illegally entered Syrian airspace
06:23on Thursday night, causing massive explosions in the northwestern city of Aleppo.
06:28The explosions in the east of Aleppo correspond to the destruction of several defense industry
06:35factories in the suburbs of the city of Al-Safira.
06:39So far there is no information about possible casualties and the amount of damage.
06:43The Zionist regime continues its attacks against the region under the pretext of the alleged
06:48presence of Iran in the Arab country.

14:41Welcome back to From the South.
14:43North Korean protesters gathered near the residence of impeached President Joseph Gil
14:47to demand his detention after investigators called off an attempted arrest operation.
14:54Precisely, the failing imprisonment occurred when law officials were
14:59outnumbered by protesters and the president's security staff.
15:03The Constitutional Court then announced that the first oral argument for the impeachment
15:09against the head of state will be held on January 14 upon the completion of its
15:14preparatory procedures. Demonstrators against Gil are being led by the South Korean Confederation
15:22of Trade Unions, which declared on Friday afternoon that they are organizing a mobilization
15:27that will last through the night.
15:34I came rushing out to this place filled with anger over the fact that Jun Suk-yil
15:37has not been swiftly arrested and that they are resisting and not promptly complying with the arrest.
15:46Ever since the warrant was issued, I have been anxiously waiting for it to be executed.
15:50This morning, when I heard that the Corruption Investigation Office had set out, I fervently
15:54hoped that he would finally be arrested, however, on my way here, I heard that the office had
15:58withdrawn and I felt utterly disheartened and furious, with no way to express my frustration.
16:03That is why today, I am determined to see Jun Suk-yil arrested and brought to justice,
16:07after which I plan to return to Daegu.
16:11Also in South Korea, on Friday, authorities began lifting the wreckage of a Ju-Ju Airplane
16:17that crashed on December 29 at Mount Airport. By using large cranes, sections of the aircraft's
16:26crotch fuselage started being lifted, including parts of the engine and the tail.
16:32According to unassigned investigators, this phase-off recovery operation is expected to
16:39undercover more human remains from the 179 fatal victims of the Flight 2216 crash.
16:47These context examinations are being conducted to identify the still unknown cases of the incident,
16:54with police vowing to determine the responsibilities swiftly, while the
16:59nation's transport ministry stated the procedures could take six months to three years.
17:11The Brazilian Air Force began analyzing on Thursday the reportings from the black box
17:17of a plane that crashed on December 25 in Kazakhstan, killing 38 people of the 67 on board.
17:28The investigation will help to indicate that it caused the crash of the aircraft manufactured
17:34by the Brazilian company Embraer. Technicians and specialists from the Center for Aeronautical
17:42Accident Research and Prevention analyzed the material accompanied by experts from
17:48Kazakhstan, Serbia and Russia. Data will be used for the reconstruction of the event
17:53with virtual reality animation in three dimensions, determining the plane's trajectory,
17:59speed, flight altitude and the performance of the commands.
18:08In Montenegro, thousands of residents gathered in Satinia to honor the 12 victims killed after
18:13shooting in the small town. Government authorities declared a three-day national mourning and
18:19canceled all planes in New Year celebrations throughout the country. Statements from the
18:23town's residents point to the government's inaction in the events that have been taking
18:29place for the past several years. The population of around 620,000, a small and drab nation,
18:37is known for its gun culture, with many of its citizens traditionally owning weapons.
18:49Armed forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo report crashes with rival groups
18:56of the March 23 Movement and insurgents from Rwanda, in the province of North Kivu.
19:02The clashes took place in two axes of the territory in Massissi, where civilians affirmed
19:09that the offensive produced the advanced towards Katale, a few kilometers from the capital.
19:16During the attack, at least two civilians, among them children, were wounded. Those actions
19:20violated the ceasefire agreement with Rwanda, causing Kim Il-Sung to accuse
19:26Kigali of supporting the armed groups.
19:29And now, changing topics. The Prime Minister of Barbados, Amia Mautly, announced the celebration
19:46of the CariFiestas Festival in her country as an opportunity to consolidate resilience in the
19:52region. In her messages, the newly inaugurated President Pro Tempore of the Caribbean community,
19:58Caricam, the head of government, announced that between August 22 and 31 Barbados will host the
20:0415th edition of CariFiesta. Mautly invited representatives from all over the Caribbean
20:10to participate in the Caribbean Festival of the Arts, commonly known as CariFesta,
20:16an international multicultural event organized periodically by the Caribbean countries.
20:27On January the 3rd, we remember the anniversary of more than 192 of the legitimate occupation of
20:35the Argentinian and Slovenian Maldives by the British forces. On that date, on 1833, the
20:42territory of the Maldive Islands was illegally occupied by British forces, affecting the
20:47Argentine authorities that legitimately established the almost bicentennial British occupation and the
20:56Argentine permissiveness to consolidate, day by day, before the world, the British
21:01legal position of this territory. According to the last Argentine constitutional reform of 1994,
21:09the recovery of these territories and the full exercise of sovereignty in agreement with the
21:13principle of international law constitute a permanent and unbreakable obligation of the Argentine people.
