La CONRED informó este lunes que, por la influencia de la Tormenta Tropical Cristina, realizó una reunión virtual con integrantes del Sistema CONRED para compartir información técnica sobre las condiciones previstas y reforzar la preparación y la respuesta en el país.

De acuerdo con la Coordinadora Nacional para la Reducción de Desastres, la mayor parte del territorio podría registrar lluvias de moderadas a fuertes, con los mayores acumulados en el Sur, Bocacosta y SurOccidente.

Según la Secretaría Ejecutiva de la CONRED, se recomendó a las autoridades territoriales adoptar el nivel de Alerta Anaranjada en sus jurisdicciones, conforme al Plan Nacional de Respuesta.

El organismo advirtió que ese escenario puede favorecer inundaciones y crecidas repentinas de ríos, además de derrumbes, deslizamientos de tierra y descenso de lahares en los volcanes Fuego y Santiaguito.

Por eso, mantiene un monitoreo permanente de las zonas con mayor susceptibilidad.

La medida habilita procedimientos operativos como convocar enlaces institucionales, activar Centros de Operaciones de Emergencia (COE), preparar recursos para la atención de emergencias y promover acciones de prevención y respuesta.

La SE-CONRED reiteró el llamado a autoridades y población a mantenerse informadas por canales oficiales. También indicó que las Coordinadoras para la Reducción de Desastres facilitan la coordinación interinstitucional, la toma de decisiones y la atención de emergencias en el territorio.

CONRED emitió este lunes un aviso informativo alertando a la población sobre las condiciones climatológicas que afectarán al país durante los próximos días. De acuerdo con el reporte oficial, derivado de la inestabilidad en el océano Pacífico y el paso de ondas del este, se prevé un notable cambio en el clima a nivel nacional a partir de hoy, lunes 8, y hasta el próximo viernes 12 de junio.

Las autoridades meteorológicas e institucionales detallaron que las principales condiciones esperadas para esta semana incluyen un incremento significativo en el ingreso de humedad, formación de neblina, lluvias generalizadas y actividad eléctrica. Según el pronóstico, estos fenómenos climáticos no se limitarán a un horario específico, sino que podrían presentarse de forma intermitente durante el día, la tarde y la noche.

El impacto de este sistema de baja presión y las ondas del este afectará de manera directa a la gran mayoría de las regiones del país. CONRED ha puesto bajo vigilancia las siguientes zonas: Altiplano Central y Occidente; Bocacosta y la región del Pacífico; Franja Transversal del Norte y región Norte; Valles de Oriente y la región del Caribe.

Bajo la premisa de que “la prevención es tarea de todos”, la institución ha emitido una serie de recomendaciones críticas para resguardar la vida de los ciudadanos ante posibles incidentes provocados por las lluvias. Las autoridades instan a la población a mantener lista la “mochila de las 72 horas”, identificar con anticipación las rutas de evacuación locales y, de manera crucial, evitar el cruce de ríos crecidos.

Asimismo, se hizo un llamado a la calma y a la acción comunitaria: de identificarse cualquier situación de riesgo, emergencia o desastre, se solicita activar de inmediato el Sistema CONRED reportando el incidente a los cuerpos de socorro, a las autoridades de su localidad o comunicándose directamente al teléfono de emergencia nacional 119.

El impacto humano de las precipitaciones sigue en aumento. El consolidado histórico de la presente temporada detalla las siguientes cifras:

• Personas afectadas: Un total de 2,908 personas han sufrido algún tipo de impacto directo indirecto por las lluvias (7 de ellas reportadas en las últimas 24 horas).
• Víctimas mortales: Lamentablemente, el informe oficial confirma el fallecimiento de 5 personas en lo que va de la temporada.
• Damnificados directos: Se contabilizan 657 personas damnificadas (asociadas a 657 familias), quienes sufrieron daños severos en sus bienes o viviendas.
• Albergados: Hasta el momento, 11 personas han requerido el traslado a albergues temporales oficiales.

El reporte de CONRED evidencia un impacto considerable en el patrimonio familiar, destacando un alto número de inmuebles bajo evaluación:

• Viviendas con daño moderado: Es el rubro más alto, sumando 608 casas con afectaciones parciales.
• Viviendas en riesgo: Las autoridades mantienen bajo la lupa 107 viviendas en situación de vulnerabilidad o riesgo inminente, sumando 24 alertas habitacionales nuevas en las últimas 24 horas.
• Daño leve y severo: Se registran 20 viviendas con daños leves y 29 con daños severos.

Por el momento, el informe del Ministerio de Agricultura, Ganadería y Alimentación (MAGA) y el desglose de infraestructura pública (escuelas, carreteras, edificios públicos) se mantienen en cero daños severos o pérdidas registradas, concentrándose la emergencia principalmente en el sector habitacional y vial local.

El mapa de incidentes refleja que las lluvias no han afectado al país de manera uniforme. Las regiones del norte, centro y sur-occidente concentran la mayor cantidad de emergencias:

1. Alta Verapaz: Es el departamento con mayor actividad, registrando 67 incidentes.
2. Guatemala: La región central reporta 39 emergencias.
3. Chiquimula: Suma 32 incidentes en el oriente del país.
4. Sacatepéquez: Registra 26 incidentes.

Por el contrario, departamentos como Sololá se mantienen con cero reportes de emergencia hasta la fecha.

Scandal-plagued Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner used a fiery pre-primary address to pitch universal health care, wealth taxes, a Green New Deal and other far-left agenda items, like floating an idea that billionaires should be jailed for looking at political ads «the wrong way» in remarks about campaign finance reform.

The comment about jailing billionaires earned the candidate backlash from his Republican critics, who pointed out some of Platner’s biggest endorsers are funded by billionaires, highlighted the «Marxist dystopian» nature of the remarks, and joked that Platner must have some sort of affinity for locking people up against their will, referring to recent allegations from an ex-girlfriend.

«We need to get money out of politics. We need to get rid of Citizens United. And, if I had my way, elections would last two months, they will be publicly funded and if a billionaire looked at a TV ad the wrong way, we’d put ‘em in jail,» Platner told a crowd of constituents Sunday night in Maine, earning applause. The comments came as Platner was laying out his far-left agenda and railing against conservatives, including calling President Donald Trump «dumb.»

«That’s one way to thank some of his own supporters for their generosity!» quipped veteran Republican strategist Colin Reed, who pointed to Platner’s prominent endorsers, like Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., who received several contributions last month from billionaires like George Soros, Pat Stryker, Jon Stryker and Jennifer Pritzker, according to campaign finance watchdog OpenSecrets.

«Why worry about slowly slipping into a Marxist dystopia? With Graham Platner, you can sprint toward it!» Jason Savage, Executive Director of the Maine GOP, said in response to Platner’s stump speech remarks about jailing billionaires.

«Dude is big on locking people in rooms against their will, apparently,» joked CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings, an apparent reference to recent reporting on Platner’s past romantic relationships, including one ex-girlfriend’s allegation that he once twisted her arm behind her back, pushed her into a bedroom and held the door shut from the other side. Platner has denied the allegations.

‘HE HATED WOMEN’: EXPLOSIVE ABUSE, NEW NAZI TATTOO ALLEGATIONS FROM EXES ROCK PLATNER’S CAMPAIGN

Platner’s campaign has been dogged by controversies since he emerged as a progressive challenger in Maine’s closely watched Senate race against incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins, including recent complaints from multiple ex-girlfriends about his behavior during their relationships. The reports included accusations from one of Platner’s ex-girlfriends, Lyndsey Fifield, who told The New York Times about being trapped in a room by Platner during their relationship more than a decade ago.

«The Platner campaign has already spent more than $14 million and we aren’t even past the primary,» Shawn Roderick, a spokesperson for the Collins campaign told Fox News Digital. «Does Graham Platner really think that American taxpayers should be paying his high-priced political consultants and the tech billionaires who own the platforms where he does his advertising? He is floating this idea to distract from the many disturbing problems his campaign has faced over the past two weeks.»

Platner has also been facing backlash for exchanging sexually explicit messages with multiple women early in his marriage on the platform Kik. Following those reports, Platner was found to still have an active profile on Kik, an anonymous messaging app that has faced criticism from child-safety groups and law enforcement officials. The profile reportedly featured a shirtless mirror selfie of Platner with a towel around his waist, which Republican staffers later appeared to mock outside the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee by showing up in towels.

Platner’s wife, Amy Gertner, reportedly disclosed the messages to campaign officials during an internal vetting process, and the campaign has acknowledged the messages existed while arguing the matter was addressed privately between Platner and his wife.

Meanwhile, Platner has argued that the allegations from former girlfriends are politically motivated, while his campaign has accused critics and national media outlets of focusing on private matters and personal attacks rather than the issues affecting Maine voters.

By the time those controversies hit the news, Platner had already faced scrutiny over a tattoo that critics identified as a Nazi-linked symbol, which he later covered up and said he was not aware of its meaning when he got it. One of Platner’s former staffers, Genevieve McDonald, alleged that even though Platner has said he was unaware of the symbol’s association with Nazis when he got the tattoo years ago, he has been aware of its meaning for some time.

Platner also apologized after his old Reddit posts resurfaced in which he made a series of inflammatory comments about rape, race, political violence, police, rural Americans and military veterans. Platner has said his views have changed and that some of his past comments reflected a darker period in his life after military service.

Fox News Digital reached out to the Platner campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) for comment but did not hear back in time for publication.
