00:00Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Medea TV, thank you for joining us for
00:19a new newscast.
00:20Here are the headlines.
00:21Israel and Hamas accept an agreement to cease fire in Gaza and the liberation of hostages
00:29after days of intense diplomatic efforts in Doha, putting an end to several months of
00:34blockade.
00:35Doctors and health professionals have organized a national strike today, a mobilization aimed
00:43at protesting against the government's disrespect for the commitments signed with the trade unions.
00:50Los Angeles knows no rest, hot winds and strong winds continue to blow, the flames are spreading
00:58in the south of California where at least 25 deaths have been reported.
01:02Hamas approves the ceasefire agreement in Gaza according to sources close to the negotiators
01:11in Doha.
01:12The Palestinian movement approved the agreement on a ceasefire as well as an exchange of people
01:17detained by Israel against Israeli hostages.
01:20A ceasefire agreement in Gaza and the liberation of hostages was reached following the meeting
01:24of Prime Minister Qatari with Hamas negotiators and separately with Israeli negotiators in
01:30his office.
01:31We have an agreement on hostages in the Middle East and they will be released soon, announced
01:39Donald Trump today on his social network Truth Social, while the current owner of the White
01:44House has not yet communicated on the subject.
01:46The future special emissary of Donald Trump for the Middle East has been involved alongside
01:51the representatives of the Biden administration in the discussions under the auspices of Qatar
01:55and Egypt in view of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
02:00Thousands of Palestinians rejoiced this Wednesday night through the Gaza Strip the news of the
02:08announcement of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas, an agreement made after
02:11more than 15 months of war.
02:13In the heart of the territory, hundreds of people showed their joy in front of the hospital
02:19of the martyrs of al-Aqsa by dancing and waving Palestinian flags.
02:24Several spontaneous similar gatherings took place in several Palestinian towns.
02:27Hamas and Israel finally agreed on a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
02:39Qatar, the main mediator country with the United States and Egypt, had reassured that the negotiations
02:46were at the final stage.
02:47The Israeli government confirmed on Tuesday that it was in favor of this agreement.
02:53Israel seeks to obtain the release of 33 hostages out of the 251 captured during the first stage.
03:01The release of the last hostages will be made during negotiations for the second phase.
03:06There is a real will from us to reach an agreement.
03:12The first stage will be implemented for 42 days.
03:15And during these 42 days, we will start negotiating for the start of the second phase, which will
03:19of course be more complicated.
03:21I hope that we will reach this agreement.
03:23In exchange for the 33 hostages, Israel will have to release a thousand Palestinians detained.
03:33The hostages will be released in groups, starting with children and women.
03:39This imminent ceasefire agreement gives hope to the Palestinians who have suffered for more
03:44than two years the multiple murderous strikes on the Gaza Strip.
03:49We pack our things and prepare to go home, whether they are still standing or
03:54have become rubble.
03:56The most important thing for us is to see the stability restored in the cities that we have to leave.
04:04We are prudently optimistic and we pray to God that we can return home safely,
04:10even if that means going back to a tent.
04:13If the agreement is concluded, more than a million Palestinians will be able to return home.
04:22US Secretary of State Antony Blinken proposed on Tuesday to send an international security
04:29force to Gaza and to place the territory under the responsibility of the UN.
04:35He estimated that the Palestinian Authority should resume control of Gaza in the future.
04:44Nasser Boletha receives the Gambian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mamadou Tangara, and brings
04:50a message written by the President of the Gambia, His Majesty King Mohammed VI.
04:55The head of the Gambian Diplomacy expressed his gratitude and thanks to his country,
05:00His Majesty, for all the support that Morocco has provided to the Gambia in the exercise
05:04of its function as the head of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the opportunity to
05:08evoke bilateral relations and to discuss the situation in the sub-region in order to agree
05:13on common positions in relation to Africa.
05:17The Director General of National Security and Territorial Surveillance received this
05:22Wednesday the Spanish General Information Commissioner, Javier Antonio Sossin Bercero,
05:27with the aim of promoting bilateral cooperation in the fight against terrorism and violent extremism.
05:34On this occasion, the two homologues had intense meetings focused on the evaluation of risks
05:39and terrorist threats, notably in the Sahel and the Sahara region.
05:46We are still in Morocco, where the first President of the Court of Auditors presented today,
05:50in front of the two chambers of the Parliament, an exhibition on the activities of the Court
05:54for the period 2023-2024.
05:57The exhibition is articulated around three main axes, relating to the monitoring of the implementation
06:02of major reforms, the results of the evaluation missions of the programs and public projects
06:07and the management control missions, and finally the missions relating to the consecration
06:11of the principle of correlation between responsibility and accountability.
06:21The National Union Coordination of the Health Sector organized today a national strike.
06:27This mobilization aims to protest against the non-respect by the government of the similar commitments
06:32with the trade unions. Other demonstrations are announced.
06:35This is a report by Ayoub Draza and Idriss Bayode. The story is by Alaa Benay.
06:41The tensions resume in the health sector. The management of this essential profession
06:45is questioned by a group of doctors and workers in the sector affiliated to a coalition
06:50composed of several trade unions. In this sense, the National Union Coordination
06:54of the Health Sector launched a national strike on Wednesday.
07:03The management of the health sector is accused of being late. This is why we went out to express
07:08our anger at the attitude of the Ministry of Health. We are not asking for anything new.
07:13We just want the agreement to be applied.
07:17The Ministry of Health takes a lot of time to decide on the implementation of the agreement
07:22that we have signed with the government. We will not stop holding meetings until the
07:27application of the agreement is made.
07:36The Coordination of the Health Sector has shown contempt for the part of the government
07:41willing to overturn the table in order to assert its claims. In a statement, the Coordination
07:46made it known that it had given enough time to the new Minister of Health to learn
07:51about the social files leaked by his predecessor. The Coordination also deplores the freezing
07:57of discussions and attempts to revise the July agreement.
08:01It is unacceptable that after a year of activism and the signing of the agreement on July 23,
08:06that is six months later, no point of the agreement has yet come into force. It is inconceivable
08:11that the workers of the sector pay the price of the delay in the reform.
08:16It was necessary to give priority to this file of the health sector, whether in terms of
08:21its management or the claims of its workers.
08:26Unfortunately, there is a slowness that we have a hard time admitting.
08:31The health sector workers denounce, among other things, the absence of consultation on
08:36sensitive issues such as working hours, guards, internal mobility and remuneration.
08:41Other health unions have also announced strikes on January 21 and 22, on January 28, 29 and
08:4630, and finally from February 3 to 9.
08:52The South Korean president was arrested today after a first descent that had turned into
08:57a fiasco in early January. The police were able to put the head of state in detention
09:02during an assault, an unprecedented measure in the image of the political crisis caused
09:07by his failed attempt to impose martial law. Never before had a head of state been arrested
09:12in South Korea.
09:17Disappointed by the announcements of François Bayrou on pensions and the budget,
09:22socialists are now exhorting the head of state to continue the negotiations of the announcements
09:27held on the eve of a motion of censure that they hesitate to vote.
09:32Explanations with Raja Engro.
09:37At the National Assembly, the new French Prime Minister made his statement on general
09:43policy. During his speech, François Bayrou stressed the commitment of his government
09:48to working to find solutions to the problems of the Republic. His priority is the situation
09:53of over-indebtedness, which he calls a sword of Damocles for France and its social model.
09:58As a reminder, at the end of the second quarter of 2024, the French public debt was established
10:03at more than 3 billion euros, i.e. its 12% of GDP.
10:08Since the war, ladies and gentlemen, France in its history has never been so indebted
10:13as it is today. And I affirm that no policy of resettlement and refoundation can be conducted
10:18if it does not take into account this situation of over-indebtedness and if it does not set
10:23itself as the objective of containing it and resettling it.
10:28I would like to thank you for your support.
10:34The new French Prime Minister has also reopened the debate on the contested
10:39retirement reform carried out by President Emmanuel Macron.
10:44This reform had postponed the age of retirement from 62 to 64 years in 2023,
10:49despite the hostility of a majority of the public opinion.
10:54The radical left of the Parti de la France Insoumise filed a motion on Tuesday
10:59against the government, signed by 57 deputies from its ranks,
11:04but also from communist and environmental groups.
11:09I have been saying this for a week now, that from the moment Mr. Béroud decided
11:14to resume Mr. Barnier's budget, there can be no change in the budget,
11:19except for worse. So there is nothing to hope for.
11:25From this, I can hardly see how there would not be a vote of the motion
11:30that will be presented today by the Insoumise, the Ecologists and the Communists.
11:35I can hardly see what logic would make the Socialists not vote for it.
11:40And so, possibly, the government could fall from the 16th,
11:45and if not, with a catch-up session at the time of the return of the financial law
11:50on February 23 at the Assembly. But I continue to say that this government
11:54will not end the winter.
11:56The far-right party, the National Assembly, the most important in Parliament,
12:01has confirmed for its part that it will not vote for the censorship in two days
12:05to avoid the worst policy. The contested reform will apply, however,
12:10if social partners do not agree on an alternative solution
12:15to the pension in a three-month delay.
12:20In Tunisia, several dozen demonstrators gathered yesterday
12:23on the occasion of the 14th anniversary of the revolution.
12:26They demand the liberation of the opponents and continue to denounce
12:30the policy of President Kays Said. This is a report by Najwa El-Bechar.
12:36Fourteen years after the fall of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali,
12:39the arrival of Habib Bourguiba in Tunisia remains a symbol for many Tunisians.
12:44The municipal theater was the starting point of two demonstrations,
12:48one in the morning at the call of the National Salute Front,
12:51the main coalition of the opposition, and the other in the evening
12:55at the call of the National Network of Rights and Liberties.
12:58The demonstrators expressed their anger at the repression of the opponents.
13:05Today in Tunisia we are witnessing political trials on various accusations
13:10that aim not only at political opponents but also at journalists,
13:15bloggers and many citizens.
13:20The Tunisian people revolted in 2010 and 2011.
13:24Today there is no force capable of eliminating the spirit of revolution among Tunisians.
13:29It should be remembered that on July 25, 2021,
13:32President Said overthrew the revolution.
13:35But Tunisians today affirm that tyranny has no future
13:39and that the Tunisian people, which seems calm today, is only a temporary situation.
13:46Nearly 14 years after the departure of Ben Ali,
13:49the slogans such as employment, freedom and dignity
13:52still echo the unsatisfied expectations of the Tunisian people.
14:00The current president, whose mandate has been renewed,
14:04has not responded to the demands of the Tunisian people.
14:08The revolution was founded on freedom, justice and dignity.
14:13Today, with President Said, there is no more freedom, no more dignity, no more work.
14:20In virtue of a presidential decree, the Tunisian president,
14:24President Said, changed the official date of the beginning of the Tunisian revolution
14:28and abolished the holiday of January 14,
14:31replaced by December 17,
14:34the day when the street vendor Mohamed El Bouazizi
14:37was immolated by fire to protest against the seizure of his merchandise by the police.
14:44Although the Tunisian revolution is no longer officially commemorated on January 14,
14:50this day remains firmly anchored in the memories of those who have lived it up close.
14:57The Tunisians affirm that the universal message of freedom,
15:01dignity and social justice that characterized the Tunisian revolution of 2011
15:06has not only been ignored, but betrayed over the years by many parties.
15:11From Tunis, Najwa Bechat for Media 1.
15:15In Gabon, the president of the transition proceeded today
15:18a renewal of the government according to a decree read on television.
15:22New figures have made their entrance in the new government,
15:26namely the former opponent, Serafine Davinou-Keré,
15:29appointed Minister of Energy and spokeswoman for the government.
15:32General Flairverne Zengine Zoudou was appointed Minister of State in charge of public affairs.
15:37The new government now has 36 members,
15:40including 11 women against 31 in the former cabinet.
15:47More than a week after the hills of Los Angeles were set on fire,
15:51the violent winds continue to blow.
15:53Flames spread throughout the region,
15:55complicating the rescue missions of the teams on site.
15:58Explanations with Dina Mrelini.
16:02Los Angeles does not know what to expect.
16:05Hot and violent winds are further inciting the flames,
16:08which have disfigured the second largest city in the United States
16:11for more than a week.
16:13Weather services have been on guard against gusts
16:16that can reach up to 110 km per hour.
16:19Parts of the county of Los Angeles and Ventura
16:22have been placed in particularly dangerous situations.
16:28These new powerful winds combined with a low humidity rate
16:32maintain the threat at a severe level throughout the region of Los Angeles.
16:37The damage is immense.
16:39In a week, more than 16,000 hectares were burned
16:42and entire neighborhoods were razed.
16:45Tens of thousands of people are still displaced
16:48and at least 25 people have died.
16:51Despite the presence of many firefighters,
16:54it is difficult for them to fight.
17:03Usually, when we are faced with a fire,
17:06the rescue operation does not take as much time and effort.
17:09This is the first time that forest fires have caused so much damage and destruction.
17:13It is therefore a considerable amount of structures to save.
17:16This process is going to be a long process.
17:22These fires could result in losses estimated at 30 billion dollars
17:26for the insurance sector.
17:28The total bill could rise to nearly 4% of the GDP of the United States.
17:34In Morocco, still a cold weather with temperatures ranging from minus 8 to 9 degrees.
17:39Snowfalls are expected from Wednesday to Friday in several provinces of Morocco.
17:43Snowfalls are expected at heights exceeding 1,400 meters in altitude
17:47and are concerned by this drop in temperatures.
17:50The provinces of Ifrane, Boulmene, Sfro, Azilal, Bnimlal, Khnefral, Hauz, Fidik, Shishawat,
17:56Inghir, Ouarzazate, Midelt and Taroudant.
18:01Morocco celebrated yesterday the New Year in Mazir.
18:04The Muhammed V Theater vibrated to the rhythm of Yanair in 1975
18:09with a ceremony presided over by the head of the government.
18:12An opportunity seized to sign several agreements
18:15aimed at favoring the use of the Amazigh language
18:18within public administrations and institutions.
18:21Details with Dinem Rini.
18:26On the occasion of the New Year in Mazir,
18:28the Muhammed V Theater in Rabat hosted this Tuesday
18:31an official celebration orchestrated by the Ministry of Youth, Culture and Communication.
18:37This ceremony was marked by the presence of the head of the government, Aziz Arnouj,
18:42the advisor of His Majesty the King, André Azoulaye,
18:45as well as a delegation of foreign ambassadors accredited in Morocco.
18:50The signing of several agreements relating to the officialization of the Amazigh language
18:55constitutes one of the highlights of the evening.
18:57These agreements conclude between the Ministry of Digital Transition
19:02and 11 public institutions and ministries
19:06symbolize a significant advance in the recognition of the Amazigh language
19:11as an essential component of Moroccan identity.
19:26During this ceremony, two conventions were signed
19:29which will allow the integration of the Amazigh language
19:32in the department of craftsmanship and social and solidarity economy.
19:36The goal is to meet the needs of craftsmen in terms of orientation,
19:39advice and communication and to help them improve their performance.
19:43The integration of the Amazigh language within the Secretariat d'Etat in charge of craftsmanship
19:47will also concern all levels, namely digital platforms,
19:50programs intended for craftsmanship, as well as signage panels.
19:55An envelope of 24 million diramas was dedicated to the training of some 150 guides
20:00who will accompany the activities of orientation and advice.
20:08More than 1,000 spectators came to admire a rich palette of artistic performances
20:13reflecting the diversity of the Amazigh culture.
20:16The ceremony was also an opportunity to pay tribute to emblematic figures of the Amazigh.
20:22Among the honoured personalities were the legendary Haddawaki
20:27accompanied by Mustafa Suleyt and Ali Faik,
20:30all saluted for their inestimable contribution to the realization of this cultural heritage.
20:38The Tifiner is a writing system used in North Africa since antiquity, also called Libik.
20:44This alphabet is also one of the singularities of the Amazigh
20:48and the Amazigh language, which was able to withstand so many explanations with Ilham Raday and Hayat Ziyani.
20:54We are at the Museum of History and Civilizations of Rabat,
20:57a building that offers its visitors an archaeological collection of exceptional wealth.
21:03In the patio of the museum, there are, in particular, Libycan funerary steles,
21:07writings of the ancient Amazigh, expressions which take their name from Libya,
21:12a term by which the Greeks designated North Africa.
21:18This stele was found in Sidi Slimane,
21:22and was compared to a burial site of the Janani people.
21:26This is a funerary stele discovered in Sidi Slimane, not far from an important tumuli.
21:32As for the date, the stele dates back to the 2nd century BC.
21:38On the stone, a vertical writing can be seen,
21:42which is read from the bottom to the top.
21:45And probably these letters were colored in red.
21:49The engraved text includes a point that separates the three words.
22:08Inscribed on the rock nearly 3,000 years ago, next to figurines,
22:12these geometric signs are the oldest traces of what is now called the Tifiner alphabet.
22:19And it concerns a large territory that extends from the Mediterranean to the south of Niger.
22:32Libyan writing spread as well in northern Morocco as in the Moroccan Sahara,
22:39as scientists discovered many rough writings,
22:43notably in Smara, Aoussard, in the Dakhla region,
22:47in the Great Atlas, not far from the Draa River,
22:50in Figig, Rachidia,
22:52which means that Libyan writing was used in several regions,
22:57at different times, and especially with distinct alphabets.
23:03The Tifiner is one of the first writings of humanity.
23:06Today, made up of 33 characters,
23:09the Tifiner alphabet makes its place in the public space.
23:13The Tifiner won the approval of the Moroccan nation
23:17and it is the singularity in Mazir, engraved in time.
23:21This is the end of this news.
