00:19In Morocco, Prince Eritrean Moulay el-Hassan presided yesterday at Kenitra the ceremony
00:24of the 24th promotion of the higher defense course and the 58th promotion of the major
00:31course. It was at the Royal College of Higher Military Education in Kenitra. We are talking
00:36about it in the East Zone.
00:38Gaza, intensely pillaged from the north to the south by the Israeli army, which targeted
00:45yesterday in a strike a school of law in Nusayrat. Provisional report, 37 dead.
00:52Morocco is a security exporter in the region. These are the words of Louis Talwar from Washington.
01:01The American ambassador to Morocco reiterated the gratitude of the United States to His Majesty
01:07the King Mohammed VI for his support in the plan to stop the American fire in Gaza. We
01:12also talk about it in this edition.
01:15And we start this newspaper in the kingdom where the Prince Eritrean Moulay el-Hassan
01:21presided yesterday at the Royal College of Higher Military Education the ceremony of
01:27the 24th promotion of the higher defense course and the 58th promotion of the major course.
01:34After having followed a presentation on the crisis management process within the Headquarters,
01:41the Prince Moulay el-Hassan proceeded to issue the patents of the Higher Military Education
01:47with a degree of specialized master in national defense and diplomas of the major state respectively
01:54to the officers and trainees of the higher defense course and the major state course.
02:01We come today to the end of a dense, demanding year. And at the end of this year, I would

02:14for giving us the opportunity to follow this high-level course. I would also like to thank
02:20the Royal Armed Forces for the remarkable quality of the reception we had this year and for
02:26offering us exceptional working conditions here at the Royal College of Higher Military
02:31Education.
02:33We remain in the Kingdom where the fight against terrorism continues. This morning, the elements
02:38of the Central Bureau of Judicial, Psychological and Relevant Investigation of the General Direction
02:44of Territorial Surveillance, DGST, interpellated four partisan individuals of the Daesh terrorist
02:51organization. Aged between 21 and 41, they planned to carry out terrorist projects in the Kingdom.
02:57Arrests took place in the cities of Salé, Tangier and Tétouan.
03:04We remain in the Kingdom where a violent fire broke out yesterday in the commercial complex
03:11of the Bars in the Bakhtouf area in the former Medina. Five dead and about thirty injured,
03:18including three in serious condition. These are the first elements. The fire, which also
03:24caused significant material damage to nearly 25 shops, was caused by a short-circuit
03:31resulting in repair work undertaken within the commercial complex in the centre.
03:42In the rest of the news, there is still and always the war in Gaza, Gaza intensely pillaged
03:49from the north to the south by the Israeli army. Yesterday, in a strike at a school in
03:56Lounroi in Nousserat, 37 people were killed. The humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate
04:03and the UN continues to sound the alarm.
04:08And always concerning the situation in Gaza.
04:12Currently in Washington, the American ambassador to Morocco has reiterated the gratitude of

08:08Welcome back to the Kingdom, where this Thursday marks the second and last day of Casablanca
08:14Smart City.
08:15The event is at its eighth edition.
08:17On site, the outlines of a connected, sustainable and inclusive city are being drawn.
08:23From the smart citizen to the smart metropolis.
08:27The theme of the eighth edition of Casablanca Smart City, organized under the patronage
08:32of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, its annual meeting is an opportunity for experts to
08:37discuss topical issues such as e-governance and perceptive metropolitan planning, smart
08:43citizen services and smart citizen management of metropolitan resources.
08:49Today we are here for the launch of the works of the eighth edition of Smart City Casablanca,
08:54an edition, as you know, which is placed under the patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI,
08:59may God assist him, for which we have chosen the theme of the smart citizen to the smart
09:05metropolis.
09:06And for us, this choice is not trivial, on the contrary, for us it was, once again,
09:12to insist on the active and important role of the citizen in the co-construction of our
09:19future and especially in the transformation of the city, especially Casablanca, to become
09:26an intelligent city.
09:27And for us, the citizen, and that during the two days, whether through the plenaries
09:34or whether through the parallel sessions, that is, the workshops, we will strongly insist
09:40on the active role that should be that of the citizen in this transformation and that
09:46in the end, technologies cannot be and should only be tools that would allow us to go
09:52fast and to take shortcuts to get there.
09:56The organizers aspire through this event to discuss the best adapted and most efficient
10:02technologies, while orienting technological approaches to fully integrate the human dimension
10:07in the planning and urban management of a metropolis.
10:11I am very happy to participate, as a co-founder of AIROBOTICS, at this Smart City event,
10:19where we are exhibiting our AIRO machine, which is a prototype that we would like to
10:26see tomorrow in the streets of Casablanca and in the 2030 World Cup.
10:33Our project is a solar electric mini-tractor.
10:36It is innovative, unique, and as you know very well, given the climate disturbances
10:42around the world, our project is ecological and which makes the environment very clean.
10:47Our added value in the Smart City forum will help Casablanca, the economic city,
10:56if Morocco's pivot improves, to be smart.
11:02Note that Casablanca Smart City 2024 also offers an exhibition space that will serve
11:08as a geographic crossroads between the four continents, thus favoring exchanges and
11:13partnerships between local and international players.
11:16A village dedicated to start-ups has also been set up, highlighting the innovative projects
11:21conceived by young entrepreneurs in the field of the smart city.
11:27Senegal marked yesterday with a white stone the World Environment Day through a conference
11:33organized by the Association of Journalists for Transparency, especially in extractive
11:40resources, at the heart of the exchanges, the importance of reforestation in a context
11:45where the country loses thousands of hectares of forest every year.
11:51The Environment Day is celebrated on June 5.
11:54Its objective is to raise awareness among individuals and communities around the world
11:59about the protection of the environment and to promote concrete actions to preserve our planet.
12:06This day is for us a way to exchange among colleagues on issues that affect us all.
12:12And the main issue, in correlation with what we are experiencing today and what we will
12:18certainly experience tomorrow, is how to become an actor, to play its part in this battle
12:26that we have for the preservation of the environment.
12:30It is celebrated today by the Association of Journalists for Transparency in Extractive
12:36Resources and the Preservation of the Environment in Gitrep, under a specific theme.
12:44The figures show that in Senegal, 40,000 hectares of forest disappear every year.
12:49This destroys the ecosystem and impoverishes the soil and slows down agriculture.
12:54This theme chosen by the Association of Journalists for Transparency in Extractive Resources
13:00and the Preservation of the Environment is a very relevant theme given the current issues.
13:07Chosen to highlight a particular environmental issue, agroforestry is a practice that offers
13:15a multitude of environmental and economic advantages.
13:19This meeting is also an opportunity for the various actors to highlight the issues
13:25related to the degradation of our environment and to take measures to preserve its health
13:31and durability.
13:33GITREP has therefore decided to work on a very important aspect, in any case for Senegal
13:39and even for other countries, which is soil restoration, soil regeneration, forest restoration.
13:45And we have estimated that agroforestry remains one of the safest and most effective ways
13:51to achieve these results.
13:53As journalists, we have a crucial role to play, to drive more commitment, more awareness
14:00from the masses, but also the support that is needed from the decision-makers, whether
14:06national or international.
14:08In Senegal, World Environment Day is a day when various government organizations
14:14and non-government organizations, local communities and citizens come together to raise awareness
14:20and take action in favor of the environment.
14:25In Gabon, the port of Vendôme will be more competitive.
14:28For this, it has just been equipped with seven new ports, which will boost port activity
14:34on site and reduce the time it takes for ships to dock.
14:37Kevin Ossua from CACA.
14:39Two docking ports and five parking ports, to allow the port authorities of Gabon
14:44to double the ability to maintain ships arriving in Ovendo, in the southern suburbs of Libreville,
14:51and optimize the storage space of containers at the terminal.
14:55These are ports that can reach 20 large containers on boats, so over Panamax.
15:01We also have ports that can maintain two containers at the same time.
15:05These are new generation equipment, which are equipped with the latest automation technologies,
15:12and which will allow us to take a big step forward in the port operations
15:17that we have to do here on the port of Ovendo.
15:19The five new parking ports will be deployed on the most sought-after import park.
15:25Work that will spread over an eight-month period will allow the progressive installation
15:31of the equipment from August 2024.
15:34We have an import zone.
15:36The import zone, we gain 30%, as I said earlier, of space.
15:39And we also gain in delivery time.
15:41The delivery time currently considered.
15:43A container that could be delivered in 30 minutes,
15:47could go down from 30 minutes to practically 17 minutes.
15:50These high-speed equipment, twice as fast as the existing ones,
15:55are able to reach up to seven rows of containers.
15:59In 2022, in Gabon, port activities were consolidated
16:03in view of the rising evolution of the whole of the four-year plan,
16:07according to information from the board of the Ministry of Economy, August 2023.
16:13Let's go now to Côte d'Ivoire, to the discovery of the David-Jean artisanal center,
16:18where reporter Max Woubi and Herman Doggo walked the objective of their camera.
16:23And in a day's time, they immortalized everything that makes the charm of this tourist place.
16:29It is a place almost unknown and yet,
16:32a must-see if you want to leave Abidjan with memories.
16:36The hardest part is to choose.
16:38We are at the artisanal center of the city of Abidjan,
16:41in Marcory, a district of the district of Abidjan.
16:43The center is organized like a small village,
16:46shared with a succession of houses,
16:48sometimes built in bricks, sometimes in red earth,
16:51and covered with tiles, between wooded alleys.
16:54Here, we find a representative sample of what is best done in Côte d'Ivoire,
16:59in terms of craftsmanship.
17:01Each craftsman has his specialty and his workshop.
17:04The merchants are very welcoming and pedagogical.
17:07We can observe them at work and make custom orders.
17:11When tourists come, they want everything that is really original.
17:15So when they come, they ask for masks, but some want bronzes.
17:19So when it's really things that are extraordinary,
17:24that they like, they speak up.
17:27At the artisanal center of the city of Abidjan,
17:29we find objects of art from all over the African continent.
17:33The clientele is made up of a majority of tourists.
17:37It's not the first time I've come,
17:39and every time I come back with new people.
17:42It's beautiful because it's the products of the country.
17:47It's original, it's of good quality,
17:51and every time I find something to bring back to my family.
17:57This part of the district of Abidjan,
17:59dedicated to the promotion of craftsmanship, is unknown.
18:02Today, the artisans want to change that.
18:05For 34 years, men and women have been trying to present this beautiful site
18:10that was offered to us by the Autonomous District of Abidjan.
18:13As Abidjan is always under the tutelage of the ministries or the Chamber of Commerce,
18:18it allows several young people today to learn what craftsmanship is.
18:24We want to present it as an activity that can lead us to development.
18:31While this vision is being realized,
18:33the center continues to seduce with its many colors,
18:37and above all, its carnival atmosphere.
18:41And as every Thursday, we immediately move on to the health and well-being chronicle with Yasmine Elkerouni.
18:47Hello, Yasmine.
18:48Hello, Pape.
18:49So, we are not alone today.
18:51No, absolutely.
18:52We are with Dr. Siam Benani, who is a dentist.
18:56Hello, doctor.
18:57Hello.
18:58Yasmine.
18:59Yes, so I have a question for you first, Pape, to begin with.
19:01Go ahead.
19:02Do you have the teeth of your father or your mother?
19:05I would say my father's.
19:07Really?
19:08Yes.
19:09So, this is going to be the first question, Dr. Siam Benani.
19:12You are a dentist.
19:13With you, we are going to talk about dental heredity.
19:16Do we necessarily have the teeth of one of his parents?
19:20Not necessarily, but the heredity is there.
19:23So, genetics, we have a genetic capital, which means that there are physical characteristics.
19:27So, we have the eyes of the father, the face or a round face of the mother.
19:32Well, the teeth are the same.
19:33We can have the same shape, the same alignment of the teeth as the father or the mother.
19:39In fact, the heredity is there.
19:40Is there.
19:41So, when we talk, for example, about very similar, when we say you have the nose of your mother,
19:46the eyes of your father, etc., we are talking about the shape.
19:49Is it for the teeth, when we talk about heredity, when we say, for example, you have the same teeth as your father,
19:55is it also all the heredity, let's say, pathological of the teeth?
20:02Or is it just the shape?
20:04Unfortunately, yes.
20:05Even the pathology.
20:06But, well, in pathology, the heredity is not direct.
20:09It is rather a predisposition.
20:11So, in fact, for example, compared to dental caries, what we inherit is a quality of enamel.
20:17It is an enamel that can be less dense, more porous.
20:20So, the enamel of the father or mother.
20:22So, inevitably, we are more predisposed to develop caries.
20:27Same for the gums.
20:28It is a quality of gums, a fine gums.
20:31Obviously, when the brushing is not good or it is done in a rather vigorous way,
20:35well, yes, if it is fine, it will retract more easily.
20:38And a bacterial environment favorable in the mouth could make it easier to develop
20:46what is called a parodontal disease, a disease of the gums and bones,
20:49when we have this genetic predisposition.
20:52So, I'm talking about genetic predisposition rather than heredity.
20:55Direct heredity.
20:56Direct heredity.
20:57And especially, in fact, when we talk about heredity, we talk about form,
21:00but you are more interested in the background.
21:03Absolutely.
21:04So, in this case, since we can almost anticipate future pathologies
21:09by knowing the parents, the environment.
21:12Does it help in prevention?
21:15It can help in the sense that we will be a little more rigorous.
21:18We will ask when the parents have, for example, a parodontitis,
21:23this disease of the gums and bones,
21:25we will ask them to be much more rigorous compared to their children,
21:28compared to brushing.
21:29Because anyway, there has to be a bacterial problem,
21:33there has to be bacterial plaque.
21:34If there is no plaque, heredity cannot do anything about it.
21:37So, we will ask the parents to be more rigorous compared to brushing
21:40and to check with their children's dentist
21:43because they may have an enamel that is not of good quality,
21:46so we will tell ourselves that their children could also have it,
21:49or they have gums problems.
21:51So, their children would be favourable to the development of these diseases.
21:54So, we will ask them to be a little more rigorous compared to brushing.
21:59But do we have this culture, each of us,
22:02enough to know our teeth,
22:04to know our weaknesses, our strengths,
22:07to be able to achieve this and to be able to support our own children?
22:12Are the adults we are sufficiently aware of our teeth?
22:17Unfortunately, no.
22:18And that's why I don't want to put everything on the back of heredity.
22:22So, I'm going to say that everyone has to be rigorous compared to brushing.
22:26Because all gums diseases,
22:28that is, acaria or bone-enzyme disease,
22:31are bacterial diseases.
22:33So, from the moment the brushing is effective,
22:36heredity cannot do anything about it.
22:38So, I'm just going to ask everyone
22:41to be very rigorous compared to brushing
22:44with regular dental check-ups
22:47so as not to let these pathologies or diseases settle.
22:50So, to make sure that they don't develop more quickly
22:54in these people who are, let's say, predisposed.
22:57Tansyam, compared to brushing, what matters the most?
23:00The time of brushing or the way of doing it?
23:05Or both at the same time?
23:06Both.
23:07I'm going to say both because...
23:09So, there's brushing.
23:10Well, yes, we're talking about toothbrushing.
23:12Unfortunately, we have the impression that the harder the toothbrushing,
23:14the better.
23:15But that's not the case.
23:16Because, in fact, what we're removing is bacterial plaque.
23:18It's everywhere.
23:19So, toothbrushing has to be rather flexible
23:21because otherwise we're traumatizing the gums.
23:23And so, there, we have recession problems.
23:25So, brushing.
23:26And we're talking about the effectiveness of brushing.
23:28It has to be done over a period of time, yes,
23:30to take the time to go around all the teeth.
23:33So, brushing all the teeth.
23:35And efficiency and duration.
23:38Well, yes, it has to last two or three minutes.
23:41Anyway, if you go around the teeth,
23:43it can't be done in less than two or three minutes.
23:45Yes.
23:46Clearly.
23:47Really.
23:48OK.
23:49So, you said earlier,
23:50in the end, when there's a good brushing,
23:52when you have good dental hygiene,
23:54heredity can't do anything against...
23:56But is it categorical?
23:58Or, on the contrary,
24:00in rare cases,
24:02for certain pathologies,
24:04in the end, regardless of hygiene,
24:07heredity takes over?
24:10So, there's a situation
24:12where heredity takes over.
24:14It's when the gums are thin
24:16and the person has a vigorous brushing.
24:18So, here, we're in the opposite axis.
24:20OK.
24:21So, when the brushing is vigorous,
24:22and the gums are thin,
24:23well, it tends to retract.
24:24We have these problems of de-heating or recession.
24:26So, here, heredity, yes, it's there.
24:28It takes over.
