by archyde

The Association of International Press Correspondents in Chile (ACPI) lamented the current situation of coverage in the country and made a special call to Carabineros to act against this easy-to-detect group, always in the midst of so many peaceful protesters.

The Association of International Press Correspondents in Chile (ACPI) lamented, criticized and condemned the escalation of violence and intimidation unleashed by groups of hooded people against the journalists who cover the demonstrations in Santiago de Chile.

This after several of them tried attack on Thursday, with knives, several professionals, including photographers from the Efe and AFP agencies.

In a statement released after the student march called on Thursday in Plaza Italia, the heart of the protests in 2018, the ACPI classified the aggressors as “a small clearly organized group, alien to the march”, which also acted in the protests of the past September 8 and 11.

In those two marches The aforementioned group tried to rob several pharmacies and other businesses, as one of the Efe photographers reported, who tried to rip off his camera and threatened him so that he could not record the moment.

“The ACPI expresses its condemnation of the attacks and threats with knives that several colleagues suffered this Thursday journalists who tried to cover the student march that was convened in Plaza Italia, where a small group of very violent hooded men intimidated photographers and cameramen to prevent them from recording the demonstration in the center of Santiago”, they assured in the note.

“Although this type of violent group has acted against the press on previous occasions, most recently in the demonstrations on September 8 and 11, this is the first time that they have approached journalists, rebuked them for giving the names of the media where they work and chase them with knives to force them to leave the place, even with the intention of taking away their work equipment,” they added.

Hooded and Carabineros

ACPI also warned that “Today’s episode marks a further deterioration in this type of coverage in Chileprovoked by small and perfectly identifiable groups that, however, are managing to intimidate with impunity so that the press cannot carry out its work.”

Thus, he urged the police forces, in particular the Carabineros, to be more proactive in the fight against these violent groups., who have nothing to do with the protests and are dedicated to committing crimes and breaking up the demonstrations; and to discriminate better between the violent and those who protest peacefully.

To the above, they added the power to safeguard the integrity of journalists and their right to free and secure information, as guaranteed by the international charter of human rights.

“We call on the authorities in general to take pertinent actions in order to prevent events of this gravity from occurring against the free exercise of journalism during the coverage of legitimate social demonstrations,” they affirmed.

“The State of Chile has signed international conventions that oblige it to protect journalistic action, therefore we consider it imperative in this situation to guarantee the right to inform,” he concluded.

Although the threatened photographers and journalists were able to leave the area without suffering any kind of injury, it has been reported that several people who were filming had their phones stolen, some of which were destroyed in the streets..

The hooded men confronted the police forces with stones, sticks, bottles and Molotov cocktails at the end of the student protest on September 8 and at the entrance to the General Cemetery after the demonstration on September 11, in memory of the coup d’état that in 1973 overthrew the government of Salvador Allende.

Banks to close for 3 days in Lebanon after armed attacks by customers to withdraw savings | International

by archyde

The uncertainty and chaos derived from the political and economic situation has been classified as one of the worst crises worldwide since the mid-nineteenth century.

Between Monday, September 19 and Wednesday, September 21, the banks of Lebanon will close in protest after violent incidents and even armed attacks by angry customers, who want to withdraw their savings..

The situation has its origin in the crisis that the country is going through and the limitations on the withdrawal of funds from bank accounts.

Specifically, the Association of Banks of Lebanon has said in a statement that “after the repeated attacks against banks and physical attacks against bank employees (…) and taking into account the risks, the board of directors has decided to close the banks between on September 19 and 21.

Along with it, the guild apologized to customers for the inconvenience that could cause this decision.

“The safety of employees and customers is the main priority of banks, as well as the interests of depositors, which they try to guarantee as much as possible in the midst of the difficult circumstances that the country is going through,” they explained.

Thus, they rejected “violence in all its forms” and indicated that “violence is not and will not be the solution.”

“The solution is to pass laws to deal with the crisis as soon as possible, since addressing systemic crises like the one the country is going through requires comprehensive plans that take into account all the causes and address them comprehensively,” they concluded.

Attacks on banks in Lebanon

The association’s announcement this Friday took place on a day in which at least seven violent incidents have been recorded in banks in the country.

That prompted acting Interior Minister Basam Maulawi to call an emergency meeting of the Central Security Council to discuss necessary security measures.

These types of events are part of “coordinated” actions by associations for the defense of clients’ rights, as explained by the lawyer and activist Rami Ollaik in statements to the Lebanese newspaper ‘L’Orient le Jour’.

Since 2019, Lebanese banks have imposed harsh restrictions on the withdrawal of foreign currency in the face of the serious economic crisis in the country.

That has effectively prevented many people from withdrawing their savings, at a time when nearly three-quarters of the population has fallen below the poverty line.

The country has been mired in a serious crisis for years, a situation deepened by the explosions of August 2020 in the port of the capital, Beirut, the coronavirus pandemic and the situation at the political level, with tensions that have paralyzed the Government for months.

Furthermore, the Lebanese pound has slumped in recent months, leading to the world Bank to affirm in June 2021 that the national crisis is one of the worst recorded worldwide since the mid-19th century.
