00:12 We are still together on Mediantv, thank you for staying faithful to us. Here are the titles of your newspaper.
00:18 In Gaza and the Côte d'Azur, the operation of the distribution of Moroccan aid continues.
00:24 It is coordinated by the Palestinian Red Crescent. We will talk about it in a moment.
00:29 In this context, the nomination of the Prime Minister in Palestine accentuates the divisions within the Palestinian factions.
00:37 The nomination was suggested by Hamas, accused in turn by the Fatah of causing, I quote, "the return of the Israeli occupation of Gaza."
00:45 In Sudan, nearly 5 million people are under the threat of catastrophic food insecurity,
00:52 the United Nations warned yesterday, which states that nearly 730,000 children, including 240,000 children in Darfur, should suffer acute malnutrition.
01:03 [Music]
01:06 Before developing these titles, we will first start this edition in Morocco, where His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Amir al-Muminine,
01:15 presided over yesterday's first religious gathering of the Holy Month of Ramadan at the Royal Palace of Rabat.
01:22 The sovereign was accompanied by Prince Moulay al-Hassan and Prince Moulay al-Rashid and Moulay Ismail.
01:28 A gathering led by the Minister of Habeas and Islamic Affairs, Ahmed Tawfiq.
01:33 It focused on the renewal of religion in the system of Emirate al-Muminine,
01:38 inspired by the hadith of the Prophet Sayyidina Muhammad, which teaches us that God sends to the community every 100 years someone who renews his religion.
01:49 [Music]
01:53 His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Amir al-Muminine, also ordered the opening of the built mosques,
02:00 where he made the subject of reconstruction or restoration works by the Ministry of Habeas and Islamic Affairs.
02:07 The number of these mosques rose to 43, divided between 17 newly built and 24 restored, including that of Al-Qutubiyah, which suffered damage during the Dalhouse earthquake.
02:20 It is also the mosque of Mohammed VI in the city of Abidjan in Ivory Coast and that in the city of Conakry in the Republic of Guinea.
02:30 We remain in the kingdom where the Ramadan operation 1445 continues.
02:39 It made a stop in Khemisheht, where we have 30 points of distribution.
02:43 And you will see, there were many inhabitants on site to magnify this humanitarian gesture of the sovereign.
02:50 Let's follow this report by Mohammed Chentouf, Idris Beyoud and Shema Fekri.
02:55 Solidarity and strong ties between the king and the people, qualities that characterize the Kingdom of Morocco since the night of time.
03:04 His Majesty King Mohammed VI launched on Thursday the national operation "Ramadan 1445", organized by the Mohamed V Foundation for Solidarity,
03:13 on the occasion of the holy month of Ramadan, an initiative that will benefit 5 million people this year.
03:19 In the wake of this royal initiative, an operation to distribute food grains to needy families was organized in the province of Khemisheht.
03:28 This operation is taking place in good conditions.
03:36 The province of Khemisheht benefits from 27,940 points distributed.
03:41 I thank the local and provincial authorities and all partners for their efforts before and during this operation.
03:47 About 1,000 beneficiaries are received daily at the distribution point.
03:54 It should be noted that the province of Khemisheht has 30 distribution points.
03:59 I have been benefiting from this aid for more than 10 years. I am a small-scale person. I have no children.
04:05 I have no one to help me on a daily basis. I thank His Majesty the King for his support.
04:10 I have been benefiting from this initiative for 14 years. We have been receiving it in time.
04:18 The operation is organized.
04:20 This initiative has become an important annual meeting, which aims to provide aid and support to the most vulnerable people,
04:31 in particular the widows, the elderly and those who have special needs.
04:36 We now open our special file dedicated to the Moroccan aid to Gaza and al-Quds.
05:03 In Gaza and al-Quds, some families have started receiving their aid cards sent by Morocco.
05:09 This distribution of living is continuing.
05:13 It is coordinated by the Palestinian Red Cross, which has received 40 tons of aid on royal instructions,
05:21 a great humanitarian gesture that allowed the opening, for the first time,
05:25 of the passage of Karim Abu Salam to Israeli soil to provide for his tons of living in Gaza and al-Quds.
05:33 After Washington, it is the turn of Paris to salute this royal initiative for the French ambassador to Morocco.
05:42 This gesture of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI will mark history in an exclusive statement
05:47 to the media and TV, Christophe Lecourtier, to salute the speed and strength with which the sovereign has acted
05:54 in the face of the humanitarian emergency in Gaza. Let's listen to it together.
05:58 I wanted to tell you how much everyone in France is really happy with the initiative that Morocco has just taken
06:06 to provide for the people of Gaza by land.
06:11 We are in an emergency situation.
06:13 Everyone sees it on television every day.
06:17 In this situation, we have to act quickly and strongly, which is what Morocco has done.
06:22 I would also like to highlight the importance of the personal decision that His Majesty the King of Morocco has taken,
06:29 whose role and influence we know he has as president of the al-Quds committee
06:35 for so long with the Palestinian population.
06:39 I would also like to say that in the history of this crisis, the gesture of Morocco,
06:45 the decision of His Majesty the King of Morocco, will mark the history of what has unfortunately happened
06:50 in the past few months in Palestine.
06:53 Faced with such a dramatic situation, I believe that France and Morocco have a similar approach.
07:01 First, the emphasis is placed on the humanitarian situation of emergency.
07:07 Morocco has committed to providing for the people of Gaza by land.
07:11 We have been working with our regional partners to provide for the people of Gaza by air.
07:21 We have a common concern, which is to demand a ceasefire that is immediate and sustainable,
07:31 and also the liberation of the hostages, which I hope will open the way to a political solution.
07:37 In this dramatic context, for everyone, for the populations on board, but also for the whole world,
07:44 which considers what is happening there as a form of impotence,
07:50 I have the conviction that Morocco and France have a lot to do together today,
07:56 in the coming weeks and months, to try to move towards a solution
08:01 and ensure that this region, which is so dear to each of us,
08:06 finds hope and begins with peace.
08:10 Morocco has managed to convince Israel to send humanitarian aid by land to Gaza.
08:17 Washington and Paris want to work more closely with Rabat.
08:21 Has Morocco become a key player in the region and what role can it play in the Middle East?
08:29 Mustafa Tosa, editorialist and political analyst in Paris, gives us his analysis.
08:34 Morocco has already been a key player, first of all through its diplomatic action,
08:41 the fact that it has made the Palestinian cause a sacred national cause,
08:46 through the role played by His Majesty the King as President of the El-Khoutsa Committee,
08:51 with all its economic and political activities in this region.
08:55 But now, the war period, the war sequence that we are living,
09:00 and that everyone is calling for its end,
09:03 we will see what are the possible interveners,
09:07 what are the countries that have enough political credit,
09:11 who have enough confidence, who inspire enough confidence,
09:16 both among Israelis and Palestinians,
09:19 so that they can have a role, why not tomorrow, a mediation,
09:22 why not tomorrow, an international meeting organized in Morocco
09:26 to be able to consider the future sequence.
09:29 No, this action that Morocco has just taken is not trivial.
09:33 The fact that it is the first power to have,
09:36 has given it the opportunity to reach the aid by land,
09:41 by dealing with the potential role that Morocco could play in this crisis.
09:46 And we can see very well that Morocco has also played its privileged relations
09:50 with the Israeli side, and it is also demonstrating to the Palestinians
09:55 that it has always been and is always on their side to help them,
09:59 on a humanitarian level, but also on the level of a search,
10:03 a compromise, a political solution with the Israelis,
10:06 so that this war is precisely stopped.
10:09 And for Nadim Kotech, journalist and Director General of Sky News Arabia,
10:13 this diplomatic balance of Morocco has enabled him to walk on land,
10:18 and for him this gap opened by the Kingdom could push other countries
10:23 to go there to help Gaza.
10:26 Together we listen to him.
10:28 The initiative led by His Majesty King Mohammed VI is doubly commendable.
10:38 First, it allowed the aid to be sent to Gaza.
10:41 Then it capitalized on relations based on credibility and reliability
10:46 with the two belligerents.
10:48 This diplomatic balance has helped him to walk on land,
10:53 in particular by newly developed land routes.
10:56 This route constitutes an access portal and will serve to send more aid in the future,
11:05 especially for countries such as Egypt and Jordan, within the Gaza Strip,
11:09 and this to mitigate human suffering in this region.
11:12 This operation is also a clear example of the credibility of which the Kingdom enjoys,
11:22 with all the parties involved in the conflict.
11:26 It is also a concrete example of the way to approach the thorny Palestinian issue
11:30 without resorting to populism or hate speech.
11:33 On the contrary, Morocco, with its wisdom, its usual stoicism,
11:42 and its diplomatic values, which have been established for several decades,
11:46 has proven that it can rise as a true mediator,
11:49 while the concert of nations has failed in the face of these ardent tasks.
11:53 What I remember is that Morocco has succeeded in being an exploit for all Palestinians and all Arabs.
