The Betplay I 2023 League advances and the results have been opening different debates, adding pressure on the figures of various coaches.
This is the case of Atlético Nacional, which, beyond the good feelings it left in the recent 1-1 draw, continues to be indebted in the standings, where it appears with 6 points in ninth place and only one victory in 5 games. . That is indisputable.
That is why analysts like Carlos Antonio Vélez point to this situation through comparisons, which can be odious at times but many others are necessary.
Vélez, who highlighted the great physical display and offensive contribution of Óscar Cortés in Millonarios, of whom he said that “they will sell easily”, said that Millonarios presents symptoms of problems to close games, as happened before, but stressed that the victory once morest Jaguares 2-1 it was a “very drinkable presentation” and “competed”.
When speaking of Nacional, on the other hand, he said: “Nacional – once morest Bucaramanga- in the first half hardly came”… and explained that “the friend Autuori has not found the equipment”.
He stressed that he bet on the young once morest Asprilla (19), Perea (17), Arias (19), Palacio (21), Palacios (20) and Ángel (20) but that, in the case of 9, he would have a correction to make : “Ángel showed that he is better playing on the outside, he is not nine, he is supported by goals, he scored two and one from a penalty, but he did not have functionality in the first half, he is more enlightening on the outside”.
De Palacios said that he showed that he has everything to stay as a starter because “it’s different” and that in general these talents are the way out for the economic problems of the purslane club.
In his opinion, all the teams in the local environment must improve the intensity of the game or else the competition in international tournaments will cause “anyone to come and empelate us.”
The earthquake that struck Turkey and northern Syria on February 6 raised fear among the residents of old buildings in Lebanon, following the earthquake’s frequencies reached major cities in the country, such as the capital, Beirut and Tripoli, where cracks filled the walls and ceilings of many buildings.
On Monday, the Lebanese Minister of Interior in the caretaker government, Bassam al-Mawlawi, was assigned by the Lebanese government presidency to communicate with municipalities in various Lebanese regions in order to formally survey the cracked buildings.
The step seeks to urge the municipalities to provide the ministry with files of the damaged buildings as a result of the earthquake that occurred in Turkey and Syria, and the earthquakes that occurred in Lebanon on the same day of the earthquake.
Yahya Temsah, advisor to the Engineers Syndicate for scientific affairs and a specialist in studying buildings and facilities to resist earthquakes, said in an interview with Sky News Arabia, “We have received many reports from the Engineers Syndicate regarding buildings in which some cracks appeared.”
“These cracks are not dangerous for the residents of the buildings, but they are an indication that these buildings are at risk of collapsing in the event of an earthquake similar to the one in Turkey,” he added.
“The proportion of buildings that are not resistant to earthquakes is very high, exceeding 80 percent of the buildings currently in Lebanon,” Temsah added.
He continued, “It can be said that the percentage of earthquake-resistant buildings in Lebanon is very low, noting that the public safety decrees issued in 2013 obligated the implementation of the study of buildings to resist earthquakes.”
What regarding the vicinity of the port, which was subjected to a strong explosion?
A crocodile touched the vicinity of the Beirut port buildings, which were hit by the August 4th explosion, and indicated the following:
• We did not receive any information regarding the impact of the earthquake on the buildings in the vicinity of Beirut Port, noting that these buildings are old and were built of sandstone; It is one of the weakest types of earthquake-resistant buildings.
• These buildings no longer pose a threat to their occupants because they have been renovated and reinforced with reinforced concrete.
Meanwhile, a member of the Tripoli municipality and head of its Heritage Buildings Committee, Khaled Tadmuri, told Sky News Arabia, “We were on the verge of a major disaster if we had an earthquake of similar strength to what happened in Turkey and northern Syria.”
He added, “8 years ago, following the fall of one of the old buildings in the Ashrafieh area, east of Beirut, some Tripoli residents submitted requests to the municipality to conduct an inspection of their cracked homes, and since that time we have been preparing statistics.”
Palmyra summarized the scene in northern Lebanon as follows:
• The city of Tripoli has been neglected for decades and has not witnessed any rehabilitation or consolidation process for its buildings, which were severely damaged as a result of the civil war in 1975 and its followingmath, in addition to the irregularities in the construction that distorted it and the natural disasters that it experienced.
• The city did not receive its share of the state’s attention even following the end of the civil war.
• Statistics indicate that there are 400 buildings threatened with collapse, of which 65 are in a state of extreme danger.
• Our expectations in the city’s municipality are that the buildings exceed 400, especially if we take into account Tripoli and its environs, bringing the total number to 1,500 buildings.
• There is a catastrophe that might happen if an earthquake occurred in Tripoli, even with a lesser intensity than the earthquake in Turkey.
• The danger lies in the large residential complexes in the old neighborhoods in the center of Tripoli.
The government is the primary sponsor
Tadmury said that the High Relief Commission is the only entity authorized by the Lebanese government that can finance the support, and he continued:
• If we add the municipalities of Beddawi and the port of Tripoli, the number will reach perhaps 2,000 cracked buildings.
• According to what was announced by the Mayor of Tripoli, regarding 300 additional complaints were received by the municipality on the total number of 400 damaged buildings in the city, bringing the number of complaints to 700.
• It is likely that the number is much higher because some people do not report that their homes have been damaged for fear of warning the municipality to evict them.
the solution?
Palmyra demanded that the official authorities fulfill their duty towards these buildings, which should have been supported at the expense of the state following the end of the civil war.
The engineer, Tadmury, said that the earthquake hit one of the ancient bridges, as cracks appeared in its body, which stopped traffic on it, and the Ministry of Works recently pledged to restore it.
Tadmuri pointed to cracks in the upper archaeological vaults of the Khan al-Sabun building in the old city center of Tripoli, and its restoration work has not yet begun.
He stressed the need to inspect archaeological monuments and their surroundings, including residential buildings in the inner alleys.
The head of the High Relief Commission, Major General Muhammad Khair, revealed to Sky News Arabia that the state will work to secure shelter for the residents of 18 buildings at its expense in order to restore them.
“These buildings are spread over most areas of the city of Tripoli, in the north of the country,” Khair said.
Khair confirmed that “the buildings in the city were subjected to cracks as a result of the earthquake, which is also a result of natural factors and the lack of quality of the buildings since their construction.”
