00:00Hello everyone, I am pleased to meet you for this new information meeting on Medea TV.
00:23Rains in Iluvian have killed 2 and 14 people in the province of Tata.
00:33The weather alert in Morocco continues until tomorrow in several provinces of the kingdom.
00:40Hezbollah announced the death of 2 of its leaders in the Israeli strike near Beirut yesterday,
00:48which killed 16 members of its elite force and brings a new blow to the pro-Iranian movement.
00:57And finally, a word of culture in this newspaper with the 22nd edition of the Tangez Festival, which continues in the city of Detroit.
01:04In the south of Morocco, rains in Iluvian have killed 2 and 14 people in the province of Tata.
01:23The victims were in a car that was taken by the Oued Tata.
01:28Some passengers were able to get out of the car and get on the roof before being evacuated by the elements of civil protection this afternoon.
01:37Authorities continue the search operations for the missing people of Iluvian, which have also affected the regions of Terodent and Ouarzazate,
01:47which have led to the interruption of traffic on the national road No. 9 linking the cities of Ouarzazate and Zagora at the Aït Saoune transit, covered by the crevices.
02:03And the weather alert continues this weekend. Storms, hail and gusts of wind are expected until tomorrow in several provinces of the kingdom.
02:14These thunderstorms will exceed 50 mm locally. This weather alert concerns in particular the provinces of Smara, Assazak, Tata, Ouarzazate, Gilmim, Sidifni, Tiznit, Bouchdour and Terodent.
02:28In the news, the Israeli strike that targeted yesterday the south of the southern suburbs of Beirut, according to the latest report, killed 31 people, including 3 children and 68 injured.
02:46After the two waves of communication devices explosions that killed dozens and thousands of injured in the ranks of Hezbollah,
02:54Israeli aviation targeted yesterday a meeting on the ground of the command of the elite force of the movement, the Aradouane unit, killing 16 of its members.
03:05And among the victims, two Hezbollah leaders, according to the Lebanese movement, a second commander of Hezbollah died in the Israeli strike yesterday on the southern suburbs of Beirut.
03:24This is Ahmed Mahmoud Wahbi. He led until the beginning of this year the military operations of the elite unit of the pro-Iranian movement.
03:33The UN is very worried and calls for maximum de-escalation and restraint when the front of the war in the Gaza Strip is now moving towards Lebanon.
03:53And to talk about these latest developments and these regional tensions, with us is Colonel Hassan Saoud, security and strategy expert.
04:08Mr. Hassan Saoud, hello.
04:10Hello Madam.
04:13According to the latest information, it is a meeting of senior military officials organized in the basement of the building that was targeted by this last strike.
04:25A strike that is a new demonstration, in a way, a demonstration of the strength of the army and Israeli intelligence services.
04:33Does this strike prove that the Israelis are much better informed, that we can think about the internal activities, the movements of Hezbollah leaders?
04:44Undoubtedly, the Israeli intelligence services are performing.
04:51You realize that we attacked in a second basement a meeting of the Redouane unit,
05:05in which the most important, of course, Ibrahim Aqil, who is also wanted by the American intelligence services,
05:19was beheaded for 7 million dollars, and you have Erdogan, Saleb Abdullah, Mohamed Wehbi.
05:31It is an attack that aims at the chain of command of Hezbollah,
05:38that is to say, an attrition that will temporarily deprive the Redouane unit of its leaders,
05:47and it is not for tomorrow that it will be reconstituted.
05:52So after the Bipers, after the Tolkiwalkis, after the raids on Hezbollah's launchers,
06:01now we are attacking the human resources of the command.
06:06And it is not an easy matter, and I think that Hezbollah will take time to reconstruct it,
06:12because it is touched at the heart of its device.
06:17You just talked about the command.
06:19Hezbollah's main military leaders are neutralized one after the other,
06:25we have tried to say, Hezbollah's means of communication are severely affected.
06:29In your opinion, what is the next step?
06:34I think that in view of this strategy, which is no longer a secret for anyone,
06:40it is the displacement of the center of gravity of the war to the south of Lebanon,
06:47and the will of the war cabinet to reinstall the 60,000 Israeli displaced to this abandoned region.
06:59It will not be easy, but I think that the strategic determination is already there,
07:05and we are waiting for an installation in the maze of this conflict,
07:13especially in Lebanon, with potential risks of degenerating to other regions, especially the Iranian proxies.
07:25Mr. Hassan Saoud, according to you, Israel is ready today to open a new front of war at the level of Lebanon.
07:32Why this strategy today, after a year of war on Gaza?
07:39You know, Netanyahu's government is pressed by the public opinion for the liberation of hostages
07:49and the reinstallation of the population that has abandoned its places.
08:03Mr. Hassan Saoud, I remind you that you are an expert in security and strategy.
08:10We will come back later for more development. Thank you for answering our questions.
08:16In the rest of the news in France, Prime Minister Michel Barnier hopes to present his team before Sunday.
08:26The formation of the government seems complicated.
08:29Yesterday, a list of 38 ministers, 16 of whom were presented to the head of state.
08:36But some personalities, marked on the far right, are worried within the presidential majority.
08:42But also, they are denounced by the left, which is about to mobilize again in the street this Saturday
08:48to denounce the political orientations of the future executive.
08:53In the rest of the news, Russia has announced that it has shot down more than a hundred Ukrainian drones
09:05above its territory. It was last night, according to the Russian defense minister.
09:11These attacks have done limited damage in the district of Tikhoretsky.
09:16Inhabitants have been evacuated, but no victims have been reported.
09:28Direction Sri Lanka, it's voting day with the presidential election.
09:33An uncertain outcome, with voters determined to turn the page of the austerity policy
09:39that he would have imposed to get the country out of the acute financial crisis of 2022.
09:45The fight is announced to be close between the main candidates in Lisbon.
09:49The outgoing president, aged 75, is bringing a new mandate.
09:53If none of the 39 candidates do not cross the 50% mark,
09:58the electoral commission will disband the candidates by reviewing the second or third preference of voters.
10:06The results are expected tomorrow.
10:09In India, security forces are on alert in the state of Manipur.
10:18According to information, there has been an incursion from neighboring Burma
10:24of militants of a group involved in inter-ethnic troubles.
10:28A recent wave of inter-ethnic violence has constrained the authorities of Manipur
10:34to close schools and interrupt the operation of the Internet for several days.
10:45Direction Senegal now, after the dissolution of the National Assembly.
10:50The country is preparing for the legislative elections anticipated on November 17.
10:55The calendar of the electoral process and its modalities has just been unveiled.
11:00The campaign starts on October 27.
11:03Marie-Madiop and Moussandier for more details.
11:07In Senegal, the legislative elections anticipated on November 17 are included without sponsorship.
11:15The danger that we are running is a plethora of lists because we knew it in 2017.
11:19With 47 lists, it was very difficult to organize these elections in 2017.
11:28The issue is to make sure that, as there is no sponsorship,
11:32we still have a reasonable number of lists.
11:36Moreover, the chronology of the electoral process is already established by the election board.
11:42The reception of the candidacy files is scheduled for September 23.
11:46The publication of the candidacies on October 7 for the electoral campaign.
11:51It is scheduled for October 27 on November 15.
11:55The Alliance for the Transparency of Legislative Elections has this.
11:59A coalition of the opposition thus invites the authorities to consultations for a good outcome of the scrutin.
12:06There is the problem of sponsorship, which is solved by the Constitutional Council,
12:09which takes responsibility for it.
12:12But there is the problem of the rights of the first voters.
12:17There is also the compressed delay of the deposition of lists.
12:23So I think there are a lot of things and we don't know how it's going to happen or how it's going to end.
12:32But he should have consulted with the political class and asked for advice from the Constitutional Council,
12:39as he did when he wanted to dissolve.
12:42This political analyst, on the other hand, calls on political actors to adapt to the context.
12:48Everything will go very fast and he must take this into account.
12:52So we are not in 90-day, 80-day delays or things like that.
12:57So he will have to adapt to the fact that we are in anticipated elections.
13:05And inevitably, the political actors who are there should know that after the presidential election on March 24,
13:12the power in place continues or the opposition wins.
13:17As is the case now with President Bassilouiou Maïfaye,
13:21the National Assembly was destined to be dissolved.
13:24So it had to be prepared for anticipated elections.
13:27So being there and saying that the power in place is in the process of being dissolved,
13:33I think that for political actors involved, they had to prepare for the consequences.
13:38A meeting of political actors with the election board is expected for the organization of a transparent scrutiny.
13:49We stay in the continent, in Guinea.
13:52End of the ride for the ex-man of the former president, Moussa Di Skamara.
13:56This is Claude Pivy, who escaped from the prison in Conakry a few months ago.
14:01He was found and arrested in Liberia, then extradited to Guinea.
14:06The victims of the massacres in Conakry in 2009 invite the authorities to further ensure their security.
14:13This is a report from our correspondent in Conakry, Idrissa Sissé.
14:18He was the only one absent among the accused during the verdict of the trial of the events of September 28, 2009.
14:26Since November 4, 2024, Claude Pivy has been on the run after his spectacular escape to the central house of Conakry.
14:34His arrest is a source of relief for the members of the victims' association.
14:39Personally, when I thought of him, I couldn't sleep well.
14:45Because I don't know when he could come back.
14:49When we hear today that he is arrested, it is a relief for everyone.
14:57I have always asked the state to protect us and to protect the families of the victims.
15:05We, the victims, we cannot suffer what we have not suffered yet.
15:10But our respective families, our children, must not suffer what we have suffered.
15:17The Guinean Organization for Human Rights congratulates the government on the transition,
15:22to have put the banner on Claude Pivy.
15:25Nevertheless, it warns against the violations of the rights of the ex-colonel of the Guinean army.
15:31He represented a danger for our human rights defenders,
15:35especially those who participated in the protection of the victims,
15:40who are suffering, but in respect of their rights.
15:44We really demand that these rights be respected.
15:47We demand that these lawyers be free to protect their rights.
15:53Claude Pivy was sentenced to life imprisonment for crimes against humanity,
15:59in connection with the massacre that occurred during the events of September 28, 2009.
16:04His arrest is the result of the cooperation between Guinea and Liberia.
16:09The two countries also signed in 2019 a cooperation on trans-border security.
16:16Pivy will therefore plead his case alongside the other convicts at the Central House of Conakry,
16:22according to a statement from the Guinean Ministry in charge of Justice.
16:29Back in Senegal, where the National Center for Transfusion of Blood
16:34is facing a worrying shortage, largely due to the increase in road accidents.
16:40In the face of this situation, the Senegal Jouk Job Association
16:45is trying to mobilize the youth to participate massively in the blood donation campaign.
16:50The details in this report by Regis Moukila and Cher N'Dao.
16:56The National Center for Transfusion of Blood has opened its doors to many donors
17:00after its urgent call for blood donations,
17:02a call to which the Senegal Jouk Job Association quickly responded.
17:07This donation will be of great use to free or save patients
17:15who are currently in critical cases or in emergencies.
17:20So we felt it was necessary to make this trip, which is a symbolic action.
17:26Since the beginning of the year, Senegal has recorded a high rate of road accidents,
17:31resulting in a significant shortage of blood banks.
17:35The CNTS therefore invites all Senegalese to go to the nearest transfusion centers.
17:41You should not expect a person close to you to have a shortage of blood banks
17:51so that you can donate.
17:53It must be something patriotic.
17:58Every three months for men, there is a three-month period for the first and second donation,
18:06and for women it is every four months.
18:09Young people between the ages of 18 and 35, representing 28% of the national population,
18:15are the main target of this blood donation initiative.
18:19We are calling on all the Senegalese youth
18:22who really want to be part of this development movement,
18:25both economically and sanitarily,
18:27and especially in One Health,
18:29to come and do the same, to donate their blood
18:31and help this group of society that needs it.
18:34Several young people, for the most part students,
18:36wanted to share their blood in order to save lives.
18:40I was just passing by, it was the end of the class,
18:45and I came to donate my blood to help those who need it.
18:50I had not had the opportunity to do it before,
18:53but I have always wanted to do this.
18:56The Senegal Jog-Job Association, in the first line of this mobilization,
19:00plans to renew this initiative in order to raise awareness among young people about blood donations.
19:07We are now heading to Johannesburg,
19:10where yesterday the 12th Annual Conference of the Presidents of the African Parliaments was concluded.
19:16And it is on the eve of this meeting that the President of the Chamber of Representatives of Morocco
19:21had an interview with his South African counterpart, Rashid Talbila Alami,
19:26congratulating him on his election as head of the South African Legislative Institution.
19:31For his part, Angela Tokuzi-Lidiza saluted, I quote,
19:36the democratic experience of Morocco and expressed the will of her country
19:41to develop bilateral, fruitful cooperation with the Kingdom.
19:49And it is confirmed, this is a record summer for tourism in Morocco.
19:54The Kingdom has welcomed 4.4 million tourists,
19:58nothing less than during the months of July and August,
20:00an increase of 21% compared to the same period last year.
20:04According to the figures revealed by the Minister of Tourism,
20:08these record arrivals of tourists have generated revenues
20:12of nearly 59 billion dirhams during the first seven months of the year.
20:17And again, this is an increase of 3.5% compared to the same period the previous year.
20:23In total, over the first eight months of the year,
20:26Morocco has welcomed nearly 12 million tourists,
20:30which is an absolute record for the Kingdom.
20:37And this is another figure in the news, 1.85 billion dirhams.
20:42This is the amount of the loan agreement that Japan gave to Morocco
20:46for the financing of the development policy of universal health coverage.
20:52This agreement was signed by Fawzi Elgher, Minister in charge of the budget,
20:57and Koramitsu Hideki, Ambassador of Japan to Morocco.
21:01The program aims to accelerate progress for universal health coverage
21:07by improving the performance and quality of health services,
21:11especially in rural areas.
21:18We stay in Morocco.
21:19The first stage of the 13th edition of the Morocco Royal Tour of Obstacles
21:24continues in Tétang.
21:26This stage will take place in 13 events, including 7 Grand Prix.
21:31The Morocco Royal Tour is an essential event in the international equestrian calendar.
21:37It is an international circuit of obstacle jumps
21:40that takes place over three weekends in three different cities.
21:45I suggest you listen to the explanations of Mohamed Nizar Souksani,
21:492nd Cavalier Sacré du Prix d'Oued Dreh.
21:54Cavalier Fédéral, je suis très fier aujourd'hui,
21:57vu que je finis deuxième de la première épreuve de ce Morocco Royal Tour.
22:01Tout s'est bien passé.
22:03Franchement, le cheval était bien, les conditions étaient parfaites
22:06et on espère le meilleur pour l'avenir.
22:09Et dans la ville du Détroit, la 22e édition du Festival Tanjaz se poursuit
22:14avec un programme qui navigue entre différents styles, ambiances et époques.
22:19Les mélomanes sont aux anges, puisque l'événement se referme ce dimanche.
22:24Mais il y a toujours de quoi trouver quelques pas de danse
22:28au Palais des Institutions Italiennes de Tanger,
22:31avec plusieurs concerts de jazz old school et de swing.
22:41Ilham Baradai est notre envoyé spécial au Tanjaz.
22:44Il s'est entretenu avec Moulay Ahmed Alami,
22:47président de ce festival. Ensemble, nous l'écoutons.
22:51J'ai le plaisir d'avoir à mes côtés Moulay Ahmed Alami,
22:55président de Tanjaz.
22:57Moulay Ahmed Alami, merci beaucoup d'avoir accepté notre invitation.
23:01Donc, comme je le disais, une nouvelle scène.
23:04Qu'est-ce que vous pouvez nous dire sur ce nouvel aménagement
23:07ici au Palais des Institutions Italiennes ?
23:09Hier, on a commencé avec l'ouverture au Palais des Arts.
23:13Chaque année, on va essayer d'apporter des petites nouveautés
23:16à la fois dans la façon de vivre le festival
23:18et à la fois dans l'expérience des festivaliers.
23:21Donc, c'est très important pour nous d'offrir aux gens
23:24des moments de partage dans des bonnes conditions.
23:27Donc, la scène Passio va accueillir le premier concert
23:30au Palais des Institutions Italiennes.
23:32C'est un cours de danse accompagné par des super musiciens,
23:36Sugar Pie and Candyman.
23:38Tous les jours, vendredi et samedi,
23:41on sera justement sur cette scène pour démarrer.
23:43Et ensuite, on fera les clôtures, les jam sessions
23:46qui reviennent au Palais des Institutions Italiennes
23:48dans ce très bel espace.
23:50Et ensuite, on vivra entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur.
23:53On va avoir des fanfares à l'extérieur,
23:55les deux concerts sur la grande scène, la scène VMCI.
23:58Et ensuite, on aura ici, sur la scène Volkswagen
24:01que vous voyez derrière moi,
24:03les concerts plus jazz, plus intimistes.
24:06Donc, les deux espaces vont cohabiter.
24:08C'est une première aussi à temps de jazz
24:10parce qu'avant, c'était le grand concert sur la grande scène.
24:12Puis après, les gens rentraient à l'intérieur.
24:14Là, les deux espaces vont cohabiter.
24:16Donc, on va offrir aux gens la possibilité
24:18de rester dans les deux espaces.
24:19Donc, des espaces de restauration, de détente.
24:22Ils pourront se restaurer ici ou là-bas.
24:24Et donc, passer de 20h à 3h du matin,
24:28toute leur soirée, en découvrant des artistes.
24:31On a Moulatou Astatke quand même qui va ouvrir ce soir.
24:33C'est une légende du jazz éthiopien.
24:35Ça a toujours été une volonté de mettre en avant
24:38ce jazz très africain.
24:40Et là, on a une belle occasion
24:42parce que cette scène, vous allez voir,
24:44elle a pris de l'ampleur.
24:45Il y a des nouvelles façons de vivre les concerts.
24:48Ça va être des concerts debout,
24:49non pas des concerts assis comme avant.
24:51Donc, on a ramené des groupes aussi plus festifs.
24:54Les Gypsy King, Kezia Jones.
24:55Donc, ça va danser, ça va bouger dans tous les sens.
24:58Et ce n'est pas le seul lieu du festival
25:00parce qu'après, on va aller à la scène publique.
25:03Les fanfares continuent à se balader
25:05dans les ruelles de la Casbah et de la Médina.
25:07Et donc, du coup, on a un parcours
25:09vraiment sympa pour les gens.
25:10C'est entre mélange de payants et de gratuits.
25:14Mélange aussi de styles de musique, d'époque.
25:18Entre le swing des années 50, 60, 70
25:21et ce nouveau jazz moderne
25:23qui est incarné par Léon Fall
25:26qui est un brillant jazzman suisse
25:30qui allie musique électronique et jazz.
25:33Donc, vraiment, on aura des facettes
25:34très différentes du jazz, du blues aussi.
25:36On a de très bons musiciens en groupe.
25:38Donc, on a une vingtaine de groupes
25:41qui vont s'enchaîner.
25:42Des jeunes talents, des gens du jazz,
25:44des gens d'autres styles musicaux.
25:46Donc, c'est vraiment un voyage très différent.
25:49Et ensuite, il y a nos partenaires hôteliers
25:51qui ont aussi participé à la fête.
25:54Et donc, on essaie d'impliquer un maximum de gens
25:57à la fois sur les espaces qu'on occupe principalement.
26:04Le Palais Moulin à Fêtes
26:05ou le Palais des Institutions Italiennes
26:07fait partie de l'histoire de tant de jazz.
26:08Donc, on maintient, mais on le diversifie.
26:13Et c'est ainsi que s'achève ce journal.
26:16Merci de l'avoir suivi.
26:17L'information s'étend continue sur Mediain TV.
