00:00Good evening and welcome to Média TV, thank you for joining us for a new newscast, here are the headlines.
00:22The representative of the UN in Lebanon raises the alarm in the face of the military escalation between Israel and Hezbollah. Israel continues its murderous attacks on the Gaza Strip.
00:33The UN member states have adopted today the Pact for the Future. The signatories are committed to drawing a better future for humanity.
00:42Donald Trump announces not to run in the presidential election of 2028 in case of defeat in November, an announcement made by the Republican candidate after refusing to debate again against Kamala Harris.
00:55We start with this new weather alert in Morocco, this time with a level of orange vigilance, thunderstorms accompanied by hail and gusts of wind are expected this Sunday.
01:10In some provinces of the country, these thunderstorms between 20 and 40 mm will hit the provinces of Alhaus, Azilal, Zagora, Ouarzazate and Aousserte.
01:22A word on the economy now, in an article published by Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the economist and financial analyst Alexandre Kateb comes back to the trajectory of Morocco in the last quarter of a century.
01:35A performance that has allowed the country to position itself on the international value chains in several industrial sectors.
01:42A trajectory characterized by an ambitious modernization program, greater durability and entry into the world's value chains.
01:52In this article, Alexandre Kateb recalls that in 1999, Morocco was ranked at the bottom of the human development index, but since then the kingdom has made significant progress.
02:02UN figures indicate that between 1998 and 2023, the average life expectancy has increased by 9 years to reach 75%.
02:12I propose to listen to the analysis of Abdeltaif Komat, dean of the Faculty of Juridical, Economic and Social Sciences of Casablanca.
02:20This is a very positive assessment on fundamental factors in human development.
02:25Do you realize that life expectancy is a result of the improvement of living conditions, of the health system?
02:31So it's very important.
02:32Of course, schooling has gone from an average of 7 years to an average of 14 years.
02:40It's very important.
02:41Income has also doubled.
02:43So these are very important indicators.
02:46There is also poverty, where the rate has gone from 15% to around 2%.
02:52So, of course, as has been said at the level of this report, Morocco has been going through a period of difficulty since 2020-21,
03:02with drought, COVID-19, the earthquake.
03:05But the golden word that comes back strongly is perseverance, the economy, the resistance of the Moroccan economy,
03:17which has made that today, thanks to these reforms and thanks to the strategic vision that has always been guided by His Majesty,
03:27today we are in the process of raising the rate of growth, which has come back to around 3%.
03:34The machine in terms of investment is developing, in particular foreign direct investment.
03:40There is a lot of investment, including sectors that are leading in Morocco,
03:44in particular all that is renewable energy, all that is sustainable development.
03:48The article also salutes the integration and adhesion of Morocco to the sustainable development policy,
03:55as it is precisely wanted by the universal community.
04:02Morocco today is one of the countries that is advancing in terms of respect for decarbonisation,
04:08in terms of development of renewable energy.
04:11All this means that we are integrating the sustainable development policy with force,
04:17but at the same time we are creating new activities related to green economies.
04:21We know a little about what is happening today.
04:23We hope that we will be able to strengthen the entire orientation of the Moroccan industry
04:28to respect today's objectives of sustainable development.
04:33All that is saline water, in which, for example, the saline water of Casablanca
04:38will be one of the first in the world to work with clean energy.
04:43All this means that Morocco, both on the social level, with the social state,
04:50which has been guided by His Majesty, which is being implemented,
04:56but at the same time on the economic level, with reforms, with investment,
05:00with the opening to the international market, with the investment charge.
05:03All this is the result of 27 years of work that has led to the development of our country.
05:11Morocco is achieving significant performance in the automotive industry.
05:15Automobile exports have reached a turnover of 15 billion euros in 2023,
05:20thus recording a record and also surpassing China.
05:24Explanations with Souheil Jalil.
05:27Morocco surpasses China in the European automotive market.
05:31In a spectacular development for the national economy,
05:34the Kingdom has recently surpassed China by becoming the main commercial partner
05:39of the European Union in the automotive sector.
05:42Surpassing expectations and economic giants,
05:44Morocco has risen to lead the European market,
05:47recording a turnover of 15.1 billion euros
05:51and thus defeating China, which generated 13.6 billion euros.
05:55The first important element is that Morocco is considered a credible country
06:01thanks to the clear vision of His Majesty.
06:05It is a country of peace.
06:07It is a country that holds its commitments.
06:10And we have, in this context, not only peace and stability,
06:16but we have an institutional framework and legislation that favours investment
06:21and that gives a lot of advantages to investors.
06:24Investors look for this first in a country where Morocco is very well placed
06:31in terms of credibility in terms of investment.
06:35The second important element is that Morocco currently has
06:40one of the most competitive road and airport infrastructures in the world.
06:45This exceptional performance is part of a growing dynamic
06:49supported by strategic investments in the industrial sectors of Tonger and Kenitra.
06:55It should be noted that in volume, China is in first place
06:58with 782,000 exported vehicles against 536,000 for Morocco.
07:04It is also clear that Morocco-Tonger is diversifying its investment supply
07:08to increase the rate of concentration and the rate of industrial integration
07:14and also to position itself as a regional, continental hub
07:18and an international force in this area.
07:20And here it is, dethroning China
07:24and positioning itself as the first international partner in the automotive industry.
07:31With the aim of producing one million vehicles annually by 2025,
07:35Morocco is not content to target the increase in quantity
07:39but also the improvement of the quality and durability of its production.
07:43The infrastructure developed around the poles of Tonger and Kenitra
07:46supports an integrated and ecologically responsible supply chain,
07:51thus strengthening Morocco's commitment to European environmental standards.
07:57The military escalation continues between the Israeli army and the Hezbollah.
08:01The Lebanese movement has replied this morning by launching more than 100 missiles in the direction of Israel.
08:06The Hezbollah acts in retaliation against the Israeli bombing
08:10that took place this week and that resulted in dozens of deaths and thousands of wounded in Lebanon.
08:16For Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli army has inflicted on the Hezbollah
08:20a series of blows that he would never have imagined.
08:23The UN representative in Lebanon warns against an imminent catastrophe in the Middle East.
08:31Israel has continued to pillage the Palestinian enclave
08:34while opening another war front.
08:36Israeli troops continue to strike in the southern border of Beirut,
08:40considered as the Hezbollah's fiefdom.
08:42What is the message sent by Israel through these strikes?
08:45We listen to the answer of Mohamed Badili Atioui,
08:48professor of international relations.
08:51The message is clear.
08:52For several days, there has been a real Israeli pressure on Hezbollah
08:56and on the whole of Lebanon.
08:58In fact, there is a speech held by the Israeli authorities
09:02for several months now, or even several years,
09:04to say that Hezbollah and Lebanon are confused
09:06due to the importance that Hezbollah has taken as a political party
09:10but also as an armed movement within Lebanese society.
09:14Hezbollah has more soldiers than its own Lebanese army
09:18and is much more powerful than the Lebanese regular army.
09:21There is a real Israeli will to put pressure on Hezbollah and Lebanon
09:25and indirectly, of course, on Iran.
09:27We saw a few weeks ago the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh in the middle of Tehran.
09:31So this is a phase two, but this time in Lebanon.
09:34And also, perhaps, and I think we will discuss this,
09:37to open a second front after Gaza in the south of Lebanon.
09:43The Palestinian enclave is still subject to Israeli bombardment.
09:46New targeted strikes.
09:48Again yesterday, a school sheltering refugees.
09:51At least 21 people were killed, including 13 children and 6 women,
09:55one of whom was pregnant.
09:57This strike was condemned by Hamas,
09:59which denounces a war crime under American cover.
10:04Israel targets hospitals, schools and is now taking to the media.
10:08The Israeli forces made a descent today in the offices of Al-Jazeera in Ramallah,
10:12in the occupied West Bank.
10:14Israeli authorities have issued a 45-day curfew.
10:18A decision of justice according to the Israeli army.
10:21The Qatari television channel specifies that it ignored the cause of this curfew.
10:27The Tunisian network for rights and freedom
10:30organized a protest against a parliamentary initiative.
10:34This demonstration aims to revise the electoral law
10:37two weeks before the presidential scrutiny.
10:39The explanations from Tunisia with Nejoa Becha.
10:44Tunisians demonstrated this Sunday in the center of Tunis
10:48to protest against an initiative presented by 34 deputies
10:54related to the modification of the electoral law.
10:57These deputies suggest that in the case of the scrutiny,
11:00the approval of the presidential election should now be registered
11:04by the Tunisian Court of Appeal and not by the administrative court,
11:09as is the case currently.
11:11For the demonstrators, this modification represents a threat to the state of law
11:16and to the credibility of the electoral process.
11:20The Tunisian network for human rights
11:23is a network of twenty associations
11:27and a dozen political parties
11:31that was formed two weeks ago
11:33and was deemed useful to protest today
11:36against the project of reform of the electoral law
11:40which was presented by a group of deputies
11:4215 days before the elections.
11:44This is considered a denial of democracy and justice
11:49and we do not change the rules of the law 15 days before an election.
11:56On the other hand, in a joint statement,
11:59the directors of the campaigns of the two presidential candidates,
12:03Ayeshe Zamel and Zohair Marzewi,
12:05announced their intention to form a joint legal team
12:10to take action against the law
12:13if it were to be adopted during the current electoral process.
12:18This is an initiative that affects the electoral process
12:24and targets mainly presidential candidates.
12:28In coordination with associations, lawyers and jurists,
12:32we have decided to initiate legal proceedings against this initiative.
12:38This initiative follows the recent decision
12:42made by the administrative court
12:44to send three presidential candidates back to the presidential race
12:48after their rejection by the electoral commission.
12:51This initiative also intervenes in the context of real constraints
12:57of the contestation of the results of the elections.
13:01The opposition still claims the rejection of any violation of the electoral law
13:05and considers that any modification of the law during this period
13:09would lead to unfair and unacceptable results.
13:13From Tunisia, Najwa Bechat, Comédien.
13:17In an international context marked by multiple crises,
13:21the 193 member states of the UN
13:23have adopted today the Pact for the Future,
13:26a pact that is committed to drawing a better future for humanity.
13:30The UN Secretary-General launched in 2021
13:33the idea of this summit of the future,
13:35presented as a unique opportunity to change the course of the history of humanity.
13:41In case of defeat in November,
13:43Donald Trump will not appear at the presidential election in 2028,
13:47a new announcement by the former American president.
13:51After refusing the challenge launched by Kamala Harris,
13:54the former president refuses to debate again in front of his democratic rival.
13:59For Donald Trump, who spoke yesterday,
14:02it is too late to organize a new debate.
14:04The scrutiny has already begun.
14:06The former president referred to the beginning of the scrutiny
14:09and the participation of some states in the country.
14:11Kamala Harris had proposed a few hours earlier to her opponent
14:14a confrontation on October 23 on CNN.
14:20Russia will not participate in the second summit on Ukraine
14:23scheduled for Kiev in November.
14:25An announcement made yesterday by the Kremlin.
14:27Vladimir Putin had declared at the first summit
14:30that he would not accept to speak of peace
14:32provided that Ukraine renounces its sovereignty
14:35over five of its regions occupied,
14:37partially or entirely, by Russia
14:39and therefore Moscow claims the annexation.
14:43The United Nations Secretary-General
14:45exhorts parties in conflict in Sudan
14:47to agree on a ceasefire.
14:49The war in the country has caused tens of thousands of deaths
14:52and millions of displaced people.
14:54For António Guterres,
14:55attacks must not be directed against civilians
14:57or against civil infrastructure
14:59and constant precautions must be taken to spare them.
15:04Mali celebrates today
15:06its 64th anniversary of the proclamation of independence.
15:10On the occasion, a medical association decided
15:13to celebrate this day by offering free consultations
15:16and medication to more than 600 people.
15:19This is a report by Mohamed Taniouko.
15:22In this village of Logosaboussiri,
15:24on September 22, 1878,
15:27there was the first armed resistance
15:29to prevent colonial penetration in Sudan.
15:32It is in memory of this date
15:34and the sacrifice made by King Nyamu of Sosokho
15:38and his troops that on September 22
15:40was chosen to proclaim the independence of Mali.
15:43The association, at the heart of health,
15:45to celebrate this date,
15:47offers consultations and medications
15:49for free to the population of this village and its surroundings.
15:53This year we consulted about 600 people.
15:56Last year we had 620 people.
16:00This is already a lot for us.
16:02It gives us more motivation to come every year.
16:06We come with general practitioners and specialists,
16:10plus women for cancer screening,
16:13lupus and breast cancer.
16:15We also have several medications with us,
16:17anti-diabetic, anti-hypertension,
16:19syrups for children, etc.
16:21Women, men and children
16:23have benefited from this initiative for five years.
16:27They appreciate this gesture that relieves the households.
16:31Most of our population does not have enough money
16:35to take care of themselves.
16:37So it is a very good initiative.
16:39I myself went and benefited.
16:42So I can only thank and encourage.
16:47By coming to Logo Saboussiré,
16:49a village whose history inspired
16:51the fathers of independence of Mali
16:53to proclaim their independence on September 22,
16:56this association of doctors at the heart of health
16:59comes to celebrate this independence
17:02alongside military festivities
17:05and other festivities that take place all over Mali
17:08on this commemorative day of the independence of Mali.

19:44The boat concentrates in it
19:46a unique part of adventure and imagination.
19:48Sailing from port to port,
19:50a place of excellent exchange,
19:52the catamaran connects worlds,
19:54cultures and actors.
19:56In the heights of Azzouro,
19:58the restoration work of the chapel
20:00of the Tounglilin Monastery
20:02has just been completed.
20:04This first slice of renovation
20:06is the result of a collaboration
20:08between the Memory Foundation for the Future
20:10and the Zulema Rabbitah Mohamedieh
20:12with the support of USAID.
20:14For Amy Koutrona,
20:16Chief of Mission Adjoint at the US Embassy in Morocco,
20:18this achievement testifies to the leadership
20:20of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI
20:22in promoting tolerance
20:24and inter-religious dialogue.
20:26We listen to the testimony of the French priest,
20:28Father Frank.
20:30I am happy to set foot
20:32on the footsteps of the elders
20:34and to see the building
20:36as it is now.
20:38We really hope
20:40a little bit of repair
