00:14The Depository and Management Board has concluded a strategic partnership with the Chinese group Kaohsiung Hightech
00:20to support the Gigafactory project of electric batteries in Kenitra,
00:24according to the observer from Morocco and Africa.
00:26The project aims to build an integrated platform for the production of lithium-ion batteries
00:32with an initial capacity of 20 GWh.
00:35It will also include batteries for energy storage systems and cathode materials,
00:41requiring an investment of around 13 billion dirhams and generating 2,300 direct jobs,
00:46explains the information portal.
00:48In these lines, this partnership follows an investment agreement signed in June
00:52between the Moroccan government and the Sino-European group
00:56aimed at strengthening Morocco's industrial ecosystem in terms of sustainable mobility.
01:01This Gigafactory, which will align the Moroccan automotive sector with the ambitions of the Kingdom's electrification,
01:07is a pillar of the industrial strategy carried out by the vision of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI,
01:12concludes the observer from Morocco and Africa.
01:16Direction of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine now,
01:19where thousands of North Korean soldiers are fighting alongside Russian troops.
01:22According to Washington, reports the Kiev Independent,
01:25the military began to take part in operations in eastern Russia,
01:29stated the spokesman of the US Department of State Vedant Patel.
01:33More than 10,000 North Korean soldiers were sent to this area
01:37and most of them moved to the region of Kursk,
01:40where they began to take part in combat operations with the Russian troops.
01:44According to the Ukrainian newspaper,
01:47during the past week, Russia gathered its forces,
01:50as if to carry out preparations for a decisive offensive in the oblast of Kursk.
01:55Kiev took Moscow by surprise in August last year
01:58by launching an incursion in this region,
02:00the first on Russian territory since the Second World War.
02:04Russia has since strengthened its military contingent
02:07and intensified its bombings in anticipation of an assault on the southern front.
02:12In El Mundo, Spanish authorities in Andalusia
02:15fear a catastrophe worthy of what happened.
02:18Two weeks ago, in the region of Valencia,
02:21the government of the autonomous community of Andalusia
02:24launched level 1 of its emergency plan
02:26and closed schools in the provinces of Malaga and Granada.
02:29Heavy rains, with more than 100 liters per square meter,
02:32are expected in the next 12 hours, according to the Spanish newspaper.
02:36The area, which includes the tourist cities of Marbella, Bélez and Estepona,
02:40should be particularly affected by a new episode of damage.
02:44This weather phenomenon of cold drops
02:46was already the origin of the floods of the end of October,
02:49which killed at least 223 people.
02:51At the same time, Spanish authorities have decided
02:54to evacuate by preventive measures the banks of the Guadalajara River
02:59in several municipalities of the region.
03:01The National Meteorological Agency has issued a red alert
03:04in the provinces of Malaga and Tarragona.
03:08The political crisis intensifies in Haiti,
03:11which forces the United States to ban their civil flights
03:14after shots fired against three planes, according to the Miami Herald.
03:17American Airlines and JetBlue have revealed
03:20that two of their aircraft left early this week from Port-au-Prince
03:24to respectively Miami and New York,
03:26each carrying a bullet impact.
03:28The United States reacted by suspending civil flights for a month
03:32and has summoned authorities to settle the crises that plague this country
03:36as a result of gang violence.
03:38Port-au-Prince was rescued by shots fired in some neighborhoods.
03:41Threats of attack have caused the closure of schools
03:44and the airport to close.
03:46The opening, questioned by the Miami Herald,
03:48the Haitian economist Kessner-Farrell,
03:50has estimated that the closure of the airport,
03:52which is added to that of the main maritime port,
03:55targeted by violence and kidnappings,
03:57announces difficult days in Haiti.
03:59The fact that there are fewer people entering the country
04:02necessarily means less money circulating in the economy,
04:05he said,
04:06which will contribute to extreme poverty and misery.
04:11The modest delegation from Argentina withdrew from the COP29 discussions
04:15with the aim of getting closer to Donald Trump
04:18and sending a message to Emmanuel Macron,
04:20explains the International Courier.
04:22Taking up the information from the Argentine press,
04:24the magazine adds that the country,
04:26led by the ultra-liberal Javier Milei,
04:28had only sent a tiny and silent delegation to Azerbaijan.
04:32In his eyes, this team was made up of technocrats
04:35who attended the negotiations in silence.
04:37However, Argentina would have had a lot to gain
04:40by participating because it is one of the countries
04:42that could receive millions to accelerate
04:44the development of renewable energies
04:46or to face the damage caused by climate disasters.
04:49But Javier Milei is known for his climate-negationist convictions,
04:53recalls the International Courier.
04:55Just like the American president, just elected, Donald Trump.
04:58The timing of this withdrawal is not a coincidence.
05:00A few days after arriving in Buenos Aires,
05:03Emmanuel Macron considered the International
05:05as one of the leaders in the fight against climate change.
05:09End of quote.
05:12This is the end of this press release.
