00:00Welcome to Mediamorning's Grand Journal, on the eve of this edition.
00:20The UN member states will debate, starting this Tuesday, a Palestinian resolution
00:28demanding the end of Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories in the next 12 months,
00:34in which the probable adoption is already provoking the anger of Israel.
00:41The American group META, which has Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp,
00:45announced yesterday prohibiting Russian state media from accessing these platforms
00:50around the world to avoid any activity of foreign interference.
00:56In this journal, the United States also announced on Monday
01:00that it had completed the complete withdrawal of its Nigerian troops
01:03in accordance with Nigerian authorities' requirements.
01:07The withdrawal of Nigerian American troops had begun in May,
01:10following the denunciation in March by the government of the Military Cooperation Agreement.
01:19US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will go to Egypt this week to discuss it,
01:26notably efforts to put out a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
01:29This is what the State Department announced yesterday in a statement.
01:34Blinken must also co-chair a strategic dialogue meeting between Washington and Qatar,
01:41a key ally who plays the role of mediator in the negotiations
01:45on a ceasefire alongside the United States and Qatar.
01:49Earlier on Monday, the spokesman for the US Department, Matthew Miller,
01:52had indicated that the United States is working on a new compromise proposal
01:58aimed at filling the remaining gaps.
02:00US officials have assured that the two main hot spots remain the Philadelphia corridor,
02:08an area in the south of the Gaza Strip with Egypt,
02:11which Israel wants to keep under control,
02:13as well as the details concerning the release of Palestinian prisoners
02:17held in Israel following the new demands of Hamas.
02:25The UN member states will also debate a Palestinian resolution project
02:33demanding the end of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories within 12 months,
02:39a text whose probable adoption already provokes the anger of Israel.
02:44The Arab countries have called for a new special session
02:49a few days after the arrival in New York of dozens of heads of state and government
02:54for the high-level annual meeting of the General Assembly.
02:57The war in Gaza should dominate the debates.
03:00The resolution project, which should be voted on tonight,
03:04requires Israel to end its delay in its illegal presence in Palestinian territories
03:10and that it be done later, 12 months after the adoption of this resolution.
03:15The resolution project also requires the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Palestinian territories,
03:20the cessation of new colonies.
03:22However, the paragraph calling on member states to cease arms exports to Israel
03:28has disappeared from the text during the negotiations.
03:33This leads to an exacerbation of tensions at the border between Lebanon and Israel,
03:42at least its diplomatic solution, which is moving away, according to the Israeli Minister of Defense.
03:49Benjamin Netanyahu intends to apply a policy of maximum military pressure
03:54on the Lebanese Hezbollah.
03:56The Lebanese Minister of Defense on Monday outlined the threat of a radical change through a military action.
04:02It was during the visit of the American emissary to Moshe Hoshtan in Israel.
04:14The clashes between the Israeli army and the Hezbollah continue to divide the center of Israel.
04:19The tensions on the borders fueled by the war in the Gaza Strip
04:23have led to the displacement of tens of thousands of people on each side.
04:27To try to appease the tensions, the Israeli Minister of Defense is engaged with Amos Hochstein,
04:33special emissary of the American President Joe Biden.
04:36Yoav Galant reiterated Israel's commitment to eliminate the presence of Hezbollah in southern Lebanon
04:42and to ensure the safe return of communities in northern Israel to their homes.
04:47For the Israeli Prime Minister,
04:49it would not be possible to allow the return of citizens without a radical change in the security situation.
04:55This statement comes as media reports Monday that Yoav Galant is one of the Israeli officials
05:02who disagree with Benjamin Netanyahu on the conduct of the war.
05:07Some media claim that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu considers Limoges Yoav Galant,
05:12which the Prime Minister's office denied.
05:15In August, Israeli media cited statements made by the Minister of Defense
05:19in front of a parliamentary commission in Wikiloo,
05:22according to which the agreement on the liberation of hostages was to a lesser extent because of Israel.
05:27Benjamin Netanyahu's office accused Yoav Galant of adopting an anti-Israeli speech.
05:35In this context, Hamas says it is ready for a long war of usury against Israel,
05:41a statement made by its leader, Yahya Sinwal, in a message to the Yemeni rebel Houthis
05:46who carried out a rare missile attack on the center of Israel,
05:50which the Prime Minister promised reprisals.
05:53Yemeni rebels have already launched several attacks in solidarity with the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip.
06:04And in the news, the American group META, which has Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp,
06:09announced yesterday a ban on Russian state media from accessing these platforms around the world
06:15to avoid any activity of foreign interference.
06:18This ban comes as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken denounced Friday
06:25activities of destabilization of RT Russian media,
06:28which he said had become a branch of Russian intelligence in the world.
06:33Ten days ago, the US authorities unveiled a battery of measures
06:38targeting Russian media in criminal proceedings and sanctions
06:44to respond to attempts to interfere in the elections in the United States,
06:48which are aimed at Russia.
06:54In the United States, the suspect arrested in the investigation of the attempted assassination
07:00presumed against Donald Trump did not shoot, according to the director,
07:05by a term of the Secret Service,
07:08there were no lines of sight on the former President Donald Trump.
07:14New elements that will sink a lot of ink
07:18on the new attempted assassination presumed against the Republican candidate.
07:23Younes Benzina for more details.
07:29The candidate at the White House, Donald Trump,
07:31was the target of an attempted assassination presumed in Florida.
07:35This is what the FBI says after the incident that took place on his golf course on Sunday around 2 p.m.
07:41Secret Service agents spotted a weapon that exceeded the nozzles boarding the golf course.
07:46A security agent opened fire and the suspect dropped his gun before fleeing aboard a vehicle.
07:52On his platform, Truth Social, the former president estimates
07:55that the suspect was influenced by the speech of his political opponents.
08:00The rhetoric and the lie illustrated in the false statements made by Kamala Harris
08:05during the Truckee debate and the ridiculous trials designed to damage the image of his opponent
08:10have brought politics to such a level of hatred, abuse and mistrust.
08:15At a press conference, the authorities published a photo of the objects left on site by the suspect,
08:22a rifle, a backpack and a camera.
08:24The man was then arrested by the police in Martin's neighboring county.
08:31We found the vehicle involved in the Mar-a-Lago incident.
08:36We have the suspect he was looking for.
08:39The FBI and the Secret Service will now resume the investigation.
08:45According to American authorities,
08:47the suspect would be a 58-year-old man known for his positions in favor of Ukraine
08:52and sentenced in 2002 for possession of a machine gun.
08:55In a statement on X, the American president Joe Biden
08:59said he was relieved that the former president was innocent.
09:02His vice-president Kamala Harris also stated that she was happy that Trump was safe and sound,
09:08adding that violence has no place in America.
09:12The day after a new migratory shipwreck,
09:16the British Prime Minister, who was in Rome,
09:21praised Italy's migratory policy.
09:26I quote,
09:27the remarkable progress made in the fight against illegal immigration
09:32subject to the origin of violent riots in the United Kingdom.
09:35A few hours earlier,
09:36London announced the establishment of an elite command to secure the country's borders,
09:42one of Kerr-Starmer's campaign promises.
09:51Portugal has asked the help of its European partners
09:55to fight against a series of forest fires
09:58that have caused two deaths and several injuries so far,
10:02according to a latest report from the Civil Protection Service.
10:06Preventive evacuations have already taken place.
10:09The rescue services have placed the country on alert
10:13because the risk of fire is considered very high or maximum,
10:17according to the regions,
10:18due to high temperature and violent wind forecasts.
10:23After the rain and the torrents of mud,
10:28the devastating storm Boris has killed at least 15 people
10:35in Central and Eastern Europe,
10:37also causing many sinister and immense damage,
10:40still difficult to estimate.
10:43Chased by the rising waters,
10:45thousands of inhabitants of the region had to be evacuated
10:49for certain reasons.
10:51In addition to the seven deaths reported in Romania,
10:54Austria announced two new deaths.
10:57On the Czech side, one person went missing
10:59and seven disappeared without being found.
11:06Direction now Nigeria,
11:08where the massive floods that flooded the city of Maiduguri
11:12in the northeast of the country at the beginning of the week
11:16have killed at least 30 people and displaced more than 400,000 people.
11:20Rescuers fear that the report will intensify the point
11:24with Gilbert Tomba in Abusha.
11:29These were the worst floods of this type
11:32in the city of Maiduguri in the northeast of the country
11:35for 30 years, according to the authorities.
11:38Submerged residential areas,
11:40tens of thousands of people displaced.
11:46At present, the water level has decreased.
11:48This allows people to be rescued.
11:50Unfortunately, in some places,
11:52it is still difficult to provide assistance to the victims.
11:56Some people even have to go inside to rescue their loved ones.
12:01The floods hit the state of Borno
12:04after a dam holding a regional river overflowed.
12:08The strong rise in waters
12:10submerged half of the city of Maiduguri,
12:12the capital of the state of Borno,
12:14damaging buildings and infrastructure.
12:17This displaced camp, which was already closed,
12:20has housed hundreds of people again,
12:22driven out of their homes by the waters.
12:28At one o'clock in the morning, the water entered the house.
12:31We have had difficult times.
12:35The government should support us.
12:37Please, I know they are doing their best.
12:41But they should do more.
12:48The victims are in a terrible situation.
12:53Most of the time, the food is not enough.
12:58Only a few people can receive food.
13:03The affected region is at the heart of an armed rebellion
13:06led for 15 years by Bokoram,
13:08where millions of displaced people
13:10have been living in camps for years,
13:13making them particularly vulnerable.
13:15The government of the state
13:17has ordered the closure of schools
13:19for two weeks after long holidays.
13:24He is behind bars,
13:26but his political training leads the campaign for him.
13:29In Tunisia, the team of candidate Ayashi Zamal
13:33unveiled his electoral program.
13:37What can we learn from this story of Neswamecha?
13:43He is currently in detention
13:45because he is accused in cases
13:47related to suspicions of falsification of sponsorships,
13:51a situation that has prevented the presidential candidate
13:55Ayashi Zamal from moving in person
13:58to run his electoral campaign
14:00and seduce Tunisian voters.
14:03The team in charge of Ayashi Zamal's campaign
14:06seems to have found an alternative
14:09by launching the campaign through a press conference.
14:15The slogan of Ayashi Zamal is
14:17Turning the Page.
14:19His program, which will be presented
14:21during the next events,
14:23contains only figures.
14:25In his program, he speaks of
14:27total and national reconciliation.
14:29It is time to find,
14:31in parallel with the democratic transition
14:33and the establishment of state institutions,
14:35economic and social solutions.
14:37A new constitution will be written
14:40through the participation of experts
14:42in constitutional law,
14:44organizations and parties.
14:47Ideological conflicts must cease.
14:50Ayashi Zamal will release,
14:52in the event of his election,
14:54to the presidency all political prisoners
14:57and opinion holders.
14:59On the other hand,
15:01a member of the committee of defense
15:03of the presidential candidate
15:05explained that Ayashi Zamal
15:07was targeted by the system in place.
15:09He considered that he was the subject
15:11of physical and psychological torture.
15:14He recalled that Ayashi Zamal
15:16was the subject of 35 investigations
15:18linked to sponsorship.
15:23The candidate was the subject
15:25of a deposition in an unfounded case.
15:28They want to implicate him
15:30in a case of falsification.
15:32It should be noted that the president
15:34of the electoral campaign of Ayashi Zamal,
15:36Ramzi Shbebli,
15:38called the Supreme Independent Institute
15:40for Elections to adopt the same position
15:42as that of 2019
15:44and called for the release
15:46of the candidate Ayashi Zamal.
15:48He also called the president
15:50and candidate Reza Saeed
15:52to adopt the same position
15:54as that of 2019
15:56when he decided to suspend his campaign
15:58until the release of his opponent.
16:03Still in international news,
16:05the United States announced on Monday
16:07that it had completed the complete withdrawal
16:09of its Nigerian troops
16:11in accordance with the requirements
16:13of the Nigerian authorities.
16:15The US Department of Defense
16:17and the Department of National Defense
16:19of the Republic of Nigeria
16:21announce that the withdrawal
16:23of American forces and equipment
16:25from Niger is complete.
16:27This is what the American military
16:29command for Africa
16:31has to say.
16:33This puts an end
16:35to the American military presence
16:37in this Sahelian country.
16:39The withdrawal of American troops
16:41from Niger began in May
16:43following the denunciation
16:45in March by the government
16:47of the military cooperation agreement.
16:53This September 16 marked
16:55the first anniversary
16:57of the alliance of the states of the Sahel
16:59that has become a confederation
17:01that brings together
17:03Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger.
17:05What is the assessment of their pact
17:07within the Malian population?
17:09If the security aspect of this alliance
17:11is a reason for satisfaction,
17:13there are many expectations.
17:15Look, this is a report
17:17from our correspondent Mohamed Nanyoko.
17:19In Segou,
17:21more than 200 km from Bamako,
17:23the capital, under a large tree,
17:25former officials
17:27have gathered around the smoking tea.
17:29The main subject
17:31is the assessment of the alliance
17:33of the states of the Sahel after one year.
17:35Ntiedjara,
17:37a retired military man,
17:39gives his opinion.
17:41In our remark,
17:43the white people are satisfied.
17:45Why did I say the white people are satisfied?
17:47We noticed
17:49a total calm.
17:51Otherwise,
17:53we, the military, would have suffered enough.
17:55His opinion is shared
17:57by his group of friends.
17:59For Mwande Dumbia,
18:01a member of the GRIN,
18:03for a lasting peace,
18:05the IAS must find a sustainable solution
18:07to the border equation
18:09with Mauritania and Algeria.
18:11Today, the big problem
18:13is the border with Algeria and Mauritania.
18:15The IAS must really
18:17find a solution
18:19because it is on this side
18:21that attacks usually come.
18:23In his address,
18:25Colonel Assimi Goïta
18:27announced the creation of a
18:29financing bank and a stabilization fund.
18:31The mechanic, Senali Kone,
18:33thinks we should go further.
18:35In all reality,
18:37the economic aspect does not matter.
18:39In reality, it does not matter.
18:41That's why I asked
18:43if it was possible to make our own money.
18:45Because we can't have
18:47a problem with others.
18:49They are the ones who guarantee.
18:51We can't have
18:53a situation like this.
18:55It's wrong.
18:57Overall, the Malians are satisfied
18:59with the IAS's assessment
19:01after a year of existence,
19:03especially on the security level.
19:05But on the economic level,
19:07they still hope that many things
19:09will be done so that the population
19:11can at least breathe.
19:13Because the economic aspect
19:15is still a challenge to be overcome.
19:17Mohamed Dagnoko,

20:29since September 2021
20:31and after three years of exercise,
20:33I have already received more than two awards.

21:41in my commune,
21:43it is an omen for us
