00:00This is a production of the French Radio and Television Association
00:04with the participation of the French Media Association
00:07and the French Media Association of the Republic of Congo.
00:14This information is on-going on Mediain TV Africa.
00:17Thank you for joining us for this round of news,
00:19my name is Vasily Tsitra.
00:21Finally, a ray of hope in the war in Gaza.
00:24Hamas must speak out on a offer of truce
00:27on the eve of talks in Cairo with the Egyptian and Qatari mediators.
00:32The offer would include a 40-day ceasefire
00:35and the release of hostages.
00:37Details to follow in this newspaper.
00:41President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen
00:44candidates for her own succession.
00:46More than a month before the elections,
00:48the German candidate accuses Putin's officials
00:51of destroying the European Union from within.
00:57This April 30 marks the International Day of Gaza,
01:00the city of Tanger and the world capital of Gaza this year.
01:04The atmosphere of this great musical event
01:07that you can experience in this newspaper,
01:09we meet right away for the development.
01:13Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
01:15the news that we begin in the Middle East.
01:17The eyes are turned to Hamas,
01:20which must speak out on an offer of truce
01:23following a meeting yesterday in Cairo
01:26with representatives of Egypt and Qatar,
01:29mediators with the United States.
01:31A delegation of the Palestinian Resistance Movement
01:35left the Egyptian capital for Doha
01:38to study this offer in question.
01:41The proposal would include a 40-day ceasefire
01:44as well as the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners
01:49in exchange for those of Israeli hostages.
01:52The head of British diplomacy, David Cameron,
01:55on their side, the United States,
01:58calls for pressure on Hamas to accept this proposal.
02:05In the Middle East and in Saudi Arabia,
02:09US Secretary of State Antony Blinken
02:12has called on Hamas to accept an Israeli proposal
02:16which he calls extraordinarily generous.
02:19But what is the tone of this proposal
02:22from Emelian TV?
02:24Valérie Ferron tells us more.
02:26Every time there was talk in Brussels
02:30about a generous offer made to the Palestinians,
02:34we realized that there was nothing generous
02:37in what was proposed.
02:39For now, we cannot know exactly where we are.
02:43There is no detail to say.
02:45The Israeli press talks about the Israeli proposal
02:48to release 33 Israeli prisoners
02:51in exchange for a large number of Palestinian prisoners.
02:55There will then be a second step
02:58with the release of all Israeli prisoners
03:01in exchange for a very long term.
03:04Hamas, on its side,
03:06has declared that it did not see
03:0933 Israeli civilians as the Israeli demand has released
03:13and that there were only 20 people
03:17in the category of civilians.
03:20Let's remember that there are still
03:23many Israeli prisoners
03:26but they are soldiers
03:29of the army.
03:31This is a strong card for Hamas.
03:34Hamas, in any case,
03:36asks it to stop the immediate,
03:39total and long-term fire
03:42for a very simple reason.
03:45It is necessary to locate all Israeli prisoners
03:48some of whom may still be held by other factions
03:51which is impossible under the bombs.
03:54Stopping the fire is also
03:57guaranteeing that the apocalyptic conditions
04:00of the population will be able to improve
04:03especially with the unconditional entry
04:06of humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip.
04:09We must see that Hamas plays
04:12on two levels.
04:15First, it has a strong presence
04:18with other factions on the ground.
04:21Israel has announced the death
04:24of two of its soldiers killed yesterday
04:27in an ambush.
04:30We know that the fights take place
04:33everywhere in the Gaza Strip.
04:36The Israeli army has no control
04:39over the military on the ground.
04:42Hamas also plays psychological pressure
04:45by broadcasting several videos
04:48of Israeli prisoners.
04:51The fact of seeing these prisoners still alive
04:54galvanizes all Israeli demonstrators
04:57and the demonstrations
05:00are really very important
05:03that continue
05:06The total stop of all preparations
05:09for a possible military operation
05:12against Rafah
05:15which the Israeli government
05:18wants to carry out
05:21requires an exchange of prisoners
05:24the departure of Benyamin Netanyahu
05:27and early elections.
05:30On the other hand, we do not know
05:33if Benyamin Netanyahu
05:36is in an extremely complicated position
05:39and all the analysts agree
05:42that he wants to save his seat.
05:45Back in the Kingdom
05:48yesterday in Rabat
05:51Theodoros Roussopoulos
05:54saluted the role of Morocco
05:57in the development of stable relations
06:00of the Council of Europe
06:03the reforms carried out by His Majesty
06:06the King Mohammed VI
06:09make the Kingdom a model in the region.
06:12Theodoros Roussopoulos also congratulated
06:15close relations between the Moroccan Parliament
06:18with its two chambers
06:21and the Council of Europe
06:24which celebrates its 75th anniversary this year.
06:27The Moroccan delegations
06:30will be able to submit
06:33recommendations and resolutions
06:36with the co-signature of members of the Assembly.
06:42And to find out more about this agreement
06:45between the government and the main trade unions
06:48because it is also a social agreement
06:51on the increase of wages, among other things
06:55The work of this session of social dialogue
06:58has been fruitful.
07:01The government, with its partners
07:04has taken several decisions
07:07to improve the wages of private employees
07:10as well as those of the public service.
07:13The procedures adopted during the session
07:16of April 2024 concern the increase
07:19of the salaries of civil servants
07:22estimated at 1,000 dirhams per month.
07:25The government has already adopted
07:28to improve the salaries of 420,000 civil servants
07:31in the sectors of higher education and health.
07:34It is also a question of a reduction
07:37of income tax
07:40for the benefit of civil servants and employees
07:43in a monthly way.
07:46This reduction can reach 400 dirhams
07:49We will also increase the value of the SMIC by 10%.
07:52The minimum income value has therefore seen
07:55an increase of 20% since the beginning
07:58of the mandate of this government.
08:01The SMIC will know in turn an increase of 10%.
08:04The minimum agricultural salary
08:07now records an increase of 25%.
08:10Since the beginning of the social dialogue
08:13the number of beneficiaries of the increase
08:16has increased to 1,250,000,
08:19including 1,250,000 civil servants
08:22and 3,000,000 employees.
08:25This is what highlights the diplomatic
08:28and social orientations of our Kingdom.
08:31In parallel to the salary increase procedure,
08:34this session allowed the agreement
08:37on the basic principles regarding the implementation
08:40of the reform of pension programs
08:43to be completed in October.
08:54To come back to the statements
08:57of the head of government,
09:00the Moroccan government and the SMIC
09:03have reached an agreement
09:06on a general increase of 1,000 dirhams per month
09:09which will be allocated to civil servants
09:12for their salary increase.
09:15Sorel Jalil tells us more.
09:18Consensus for the improvement of income
09:21and the reform of the pension system.
09:24The government and social partners
09:27sealed a historic agreement on Monday
09:30promising significant improvements
09:33of income for workers across the country
09:36as well as a profound reform of the pension system.
09:39Employees of public administrations,
09:42territorial collectivities and public institutions,
09:45those who have not yet benefited from a salary increase,
09:48will receive a net increase of 1,000 dirhams per month
09:51divided into two equal payments.
09:54The first payment is scheduled for July 1, 2024
09:57and the second for July 1, 2025.
10:05This agreement crowns the efforts
10:08of the SMIC and its employees.
10:11It also reinforces the commitments
10:14contained in the agreement of April 30, 2022
10:17which laid the foundations of the social dialogue.
10:20This agreement dedicates the reduction of income tax
10:23for all officials and employees,
10:26the increase of the SMIC of a new 10%
10:29which has been added to a similar previous increase
10:32bringing the revaluation of the SMIC to 20%
10:35In order for all companies to benefit
10:38from the contributions of professional training,
10:41it seems that we will revise the law
10:44to frame the pension system.
10:49Of course, the SMIC was keen
10:52to have more public support in the future.
10:58The SMIC was intransigent in order to remove
11:01a global increase in salaries for employees
11:04for local communities and for the private sector.
11:07This point was very controversial
11:10but we were finally able to win this acquisition
11:13which is a global increase of 1,000 dirhams.
11:29In addition, a revision of the income tax regime
11:32is also in progress with specific measures
11:35to improve the income of the middle class
11:38from January 1, 2025.
11:41The first section of the tax balance will be revised.
11:44Let's move on.
11:47The net income taxed from 30,000 dirhams to 40,000 dirhams
11:50thus exempting income below 6,000 dirhams per month.
11:53Finally, the agreement provides a direct reform of the pension system
11:56with the creation of two distinct public and private polls.
11:59This long-awaited increase is a decisive turning point
12:02for the improvement of the working conditions
12:05and the longevity of the pension system.
12:08Still in the Kingdom, let's talk about the AID Al-Harda.
12:11In response to an oral question
12:14during a session of the House of Representatives
12:17Mohamed Sadirkri detailed the measures taken
12:20to guarantee the good course of the holiday.
12:23The Minister of Agriculture said that
12:27around 214,000 units of wine and capra
12:30intended for slaughter
12:33and 3 million heads have been identified to date.
12:36In terms of logistics,
12:39Mohamed Sadirkri said that
12:4234 new sheep stocks have been established and equipped
12:45throughout the country.
12:48In addition, import measures have been taken temporarily
12:51to increase the supply to protect the national sheep,
12:54reduce costs and stabilize prices.
12:57The Minister of Agriculture also said
13:00that the import of some 600,000 heads abroad
13:03is considered an exceptional and circumstantial measure.
13:12In the second term,
13:15the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen,
13:18praised on Monday
13:21Putin's supporters who are trying to destroy
13:24the European Union from within
13:27and defended her assessment
13:30after more than a month of European elections.
13:33During a debate with the representatives
13:36of this European party,
13:39the German 65-year-old was the target of criticism
13:42who said that her presidency
13:45had been a disaster.
13:48In 2019,
13:51as the joker of the Franco-German couple,
13:54the leaders of the 27 countries of the EU
13:57will have to agree on a candidate
14:00for the presidency of the Commission
14:03on the occasion of a summit during which
14:06the other top jobs will be distributed,
14:09i.e. the positions at the head of the main European institutions.
14:13Let's take the direction of Togo,
14:16where the country is waiting for the first results
14:19of yesterday's legislation,
14:22which took place in calm.
14:25The deportations began at the end of the day
14:28and the Electoral Commission announced in the evening
14:31that the provisional tendencies should be known quite quickly.
14:34The results will then be validated by the Constitutional Court.
14:37According to the electoral code,
14:40in the six days following the vote,
14:43this double scrutiny intervenes in a very tense political climate
14:46after the adoption, on April 19,
14:49of a new constitution that reverses the country
14:52from a presidential regime to a parliamentary regime.
14:58The journalist Elie-Gora Emmeh
15:01is the new Super Ebony of the Ivory Coast.
15:04He was appointed this weekend
15:07as the best Ivorian journalist.
15:10Sandrine Bamba and Herman Doggo give us the countdown.
15:16He has just been appointed best journalist
15:19or Super Ebony, edition 2023,
15:22during the distinction ceremony
15:25celebrating the excellence of Ivory Coast journalism.
15:28At only 42 years old, Elie-Gora Emmeh,
15:31from Radio National, was in competition with 17 other candidates.
15:34I am very happy to be here tonight
15:37for this distinction ceremony
15:40and also for the Ivory Coast Radio relationship.
15:43This young career has started at Radio-Yokohama
15:46and I am very grateful.
15:49Several special and sectoral awards
15:52in different categories have been awarded to certain laureates.
15:55Among them, the award of the best TV journalist
15:58awarded by Hamza Diaby of the RTIA,
16:01the award of the best production
16:04on climate change and ecological transition
16:07awarded by Elvis Gouza of L'Infodrome
16:10and the Ebony TV award
16:13was awarded to Kone Bintoupekele of the RTI2
16:16to name only those.
16:19But all these awards will not turn their gaze
16:22on the reality of the conditions of life
16:25and hard work of journalists.
16:28This is Jean-Claude Colibaly,
16:31President of the National Union of Journalists of the Ivory Coast.
16:34The Ivory Coast,
16:37the locomotive of the monetary space of humor,
16:40has the means to give back its dignity
16:43and its joy of living to journalists.
16:46We will submit to the government a white book
16:49containing all our proposals
16:52in view of a direct funding
16:56Present at this ceremony,
16:59the Minister of Communication, Amadou Colibaly,
17:02has invited journalists to discipline and professionalism.
17:05A few months
17:08from the next presidential election
17:11in our country,
17:14disseminate the real information,
17:17the good information
17:20on all platforms and no matter the tools,
17:23it must be your concern.
17:26Note that this 25th edition of the Weekend of the Ebony
17:29had the theme
17:32Artificial Intelligence, Assets or Threats for the Journalist.
17:35Ladies and gentlemen,
17:38let's dive into the universe of artificial intelligence
17:41and illegal education.
17:44How could this promising fusion
17:47open new doors for learners
17:50while the richness of cultural diversity
17:53and what are the risks?
17:56Here is the answer with Genèse Moukara and Sanou Sissané.
17:59The use of artificial intelligence
18:02in the Senegalese educational environment
18:05promises a profound transformation.
18:08By relying on technological advances,
18:11the country can extend accessibility to education.
18:14These learning tools based on artificial intelligence
18:17are now entering our lives.
18:20In the Senegalese educational system,
18:23we are still thinking about it
18:26because it was a fast entry
18:29and this entry will require us
18:32to apprehend the digital in a different way.
18:35It will make the Senegalese educational system evolve
18:38but also the world, not just ours.
18:41And by the present,
18:44we are thinking in the school
18:47in which I am part of the ISM group.
18:50The improvement of the quality of artificial intelligence
18:53can also play a crucial role
18:56in the improvement of the quality of the courses.
18:59This process also has disadvantages.
19:02It can increase the unemployment rate
19:05because many cannot be recruited.
19:08For example, if I am a beginner,
19:11companies will ask me
19:14why recruit a beginner
19:17when we have artificial intelligence.
19:20As artificial intelligence says,
19:23there is nothing real,
19:26there is nothing that comes out of our true intelligence,
19:29that comes out of our true identity.
19:32It is true that it robotizes us too much.
19:35He returns to learning to find the right balance
19:38and to use his own knowledge
19:41while relying on technological innovations to strengthen his knowledge.
19:44I admit that I have already had access to artificial intelligence
19:47for example for exposés or group projects.
19:50I had a 50% satisfying experience.
19:53I think that by using artificial intelligence,
19:56you have to use your knowledge
19:59to know what to ask for artificial intelligence
20:02otherwise you will not get the expected result.
20:05We can combine our knowledge with artificial intelligence
20:08in order to get the most satisfying result possible.
20:19By adopting a thoughtful and inclusive approach
20:22to the use of artificial intelligence in education,
20:25Senegal can take advantage of this opportunity
20:28to strengthen its educational system
20:31and improve accessibility to education.
20:34Senegal is committed to enhancing the quality of education
20:37and to overcoming cultural and societal challenges.
20:40Music brings us back to the kingdom.
20:43The city of the Moroccan Détroit continues to vibrate
20:46with the rhythm of the festivities of the International Day of Gaze.
20:49Since Friday, music lovers have been savoring
20:52the musical sounds of the great name of Gaze
20:55which continues to rise on stage.
20:58This event highlights the cultural heritage of Tangier
21:01as well as the musical links between the different continents.
21:08On this special day of the International Day of Gaze
21:11in the city of the Détroit,
21:14Ilhame Berrada was at the Palais des Arts
21:17and Culture of Tangier this morning
21:20and she gives us the highlights of this event.
21:23Preparations are in full swing
21:26because I am at the Palais des Arts
21:30and it is a parade of artists
21:33who come here for the check-sounds
21:36as there are dozens and dozens of artists.
21:39It is a parade since 7am
21:42and it will continue all day
21:45until the beginning of this concert
21:48and it will be at 7.00pm.
21:51Not a minute less, not a minute more
21:54because as you know Omar,
21:57this concert is broadcast live all over the world
22:00and at 7.00pm, Moroccan time,
22:03Tangier, Morocco,
22:06will be the star of the world.
22:09This concert is followed by
22:12no less than 100 million people live.
22:15In the end, the International Day of Gaze
22:18attracts more than 2 billion visitors
22:21around the world.
22:24This is a very important event for Morocco
22:27and I can assure you that this Palais des Arts
22:30is dressed in its most beautiful clothes
22:33to welcome this exceptional event
22:36because, as we said yesterday
22:39during the press conference,
22:42whether it is Herbie Hancock or Jeremy Irons
22:45who is today the master of ceremony
22:48of this exceptional event,
22:51Tangier arrived at the right time
22:54and it was quite natural
22:57that Tangier could welcome this event.
23:00I said that Jeremy Irons, the actor,
23:03is the master of ceremony
23:06but it is also Gnawa music
23:09that will be at the heart of this concert
23:12because Abdullah El Gord, his son and daughter
23:15will be present to play with these musicians.
23:18The concert will start at 7 p.m.
23:21here at the Palais des Arts in Tangier.
23:24This morning, in a few minutes,
23:27masterclasses will start with jazzmen
23:30and children who fill the rooms
23:33of this Palais des Arts and give it a life.
23:36Tangier is well prepared,
23:39magnificently prepared for this grand event
23:42that puts Morocco at the heart
23:45The first edition was in Melbourne
23:48and it's been five years since UNESCO and Herbie Hancock
23:51did not organize a face-to-face event
23:54so it is Tangier that will resume the flame
23:57to continue this international jazz created in 2012.
24:00And it is on these jazz melodies
24:03that this edition comes to an end.
24:06Thank you for following it.
24:09The news is back on Median TV Africa.
