03:25of the operationalization of the High Atlas Development Agency in the shortest possible

04:18Their interviews covered the various aspects of bilateral military cooperation, as well
04:24as the regional and international security situation, as indicated by the statement of
04:28the Chief-of-Staff of the Royal Armed Forces.
04:33In the diplomatic framework, during a meeting by videoconference with the Minister of Foreign
04:38Affairs of the African Cooperation of Moroccans living abroad, Nasser Bourita, the Minister
04:44of Foreign Affairs and Human Mobility of the Republic of Ecuador, Gabriela Sommerfeld,
04:50reiterated on Monday the decision taken by her country to suspend its recognition of
04:55the Absolurazde, highlighting the importance of the autonomy initiative for the region
05:00of the Sahara, presented by the Kingdom of Morocco in 2007.
05:04On this occasion, the two ministers highlighted the common will of His Majesty the King Mohammed
05:09VI and the President of the Republic of Ecuador, Danilo Noboa, to direct the relationship between
05:15the two countries as a model of south-south cooperation that is supportive and acts in
05:20the service of the ambitions and interests of the two peoples.
05:28In the conflict in the Middle East, Bashar al-Assad claims to have lost control of Aleppo,
05:33the second Syrian city, during a rebel offensive that killed more than 400 people, according
05:38to an NGO.
05:39This is the first time since the start of the war in Syria in 2011 that the government
05:44of Bashar al-Assad has lost all control of this locality.
05:47According to the Kremlin, President Vladimir Putin and Mr. Bezeskyan affirmed their unconditional
05:53support for Bashar al-Assad and called for coordination with Turkey, which supports rebel
05:59groups.
06:02President Bashar al-Assad claims to have lost control of Aleppo, the second Syrian city,
06:07during a rebel offensive that killed several people.
06:11According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the developments with them at Imafik
06:16have been taken.
06:19Since Sunday, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad seeks to obtain the support of his allies
06:25and for good reason, his loss of control of Aleppo, the second city in Syria, during a
06:29rebel offensive.
06:30This is the first time since the start of the war in Syria in 2011 that the power, an
06:36ally of Iran and Russia, totally loses control of this city.
06:40The group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a former Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda and the rebels control
06:45the city of Aleppo, with the exception of the neighborhoods, at the hands of the Kurdish
06:49forces.
06:50The army confirmed on Saturday the presence of anti-government fighters in large parts
06:55of the city.
06:56After his meeting with Syrian President Adamas, the head of Iran's diplomacy, Abbas
07:01al-Arshi, arrived on Sunday evening in Ankara, where he has to meet on Monday his Turkish
07:06counterpart, Hakan Fidan, before a meeting with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
07:11While Iran reiterated its firm support for the Assad regime, Russia said that its air
07:17forces helped the Syrian army to repel the rebels in the provinces of Ileb in the northwest,
07:22Hama in the center and Aleppo in the north.
07:25These violences, the first of this magnitude since 2020, fear a resumption of hostilities
07:30on a large scale in a country split into several zones of influence.
07:35In a joint statement, the United States, France, Germany and the United Kingdom called for
07:41an escalation in Syria, adding that the escalation of the conflict underlined the urgent need
07:46for a political solution.
07:48Turkey, which controls several areas of the north of the country, said it supports efforts
07:53to put an end to the tension.
07:56Terrible and apocalyptic, it is by these terms that the UN qualified the current situation
08:02in Gaza.
08:03In a speech read at the opening of a conference hosted by his adjoint Amina Mohamed, Antonio
08:09Guterres called on the international community to lay the foundations for a sustainable peace
08:14in Gaza and throughout the Middle East.
08:17Malnutrition is endemic, famine is imminent and the health system has collapsed.
08:23Did he add, while recalling that Gaza now has the largest number of children amputated
08:29by inhabitants in the world?
08:36During this time, Israel promised to respond to the shots claimed by Hezbollah.
08:41The first since the entry into force of the fragile agreement to cease fire in Lebanon
08:46concluded after two months of open war and that the two parties are accused of raping.
08:51Benyamin Netanyahu described serious violations, the shots of the Lebanese movement in the direction
08:57of a contested area on the outskirts of Lebanon and the part of the Syrian Golan, occupied
09:03and annexed by Israel, allowing them to react with force.
09:11Let's go back to France.
09:12Michel Barnier's government is going through its last days.
09:15The Prime Minister has been forced today to commit his responsibility on the budget
09:20of social security, a first 49.3, synonymous with his fall.
09:25Michel Barnier will have to face this week, of course, two motions of censorship from
09:31the left and the RN, which will unite their voices for censorship.
09:37This will be the first time that a government has fallen since 1962 with George Pompidou.
09:45It is now a moment of truth.
09:49President Tadjian assured yesterday that his country, the last to shelter its French forces
09:55in the Sahel, had put an end to military agreements with Paris.
09:59These decisions of rupture are by no means a rejection of international cooperation,
10:04nor a resumption in question of diplomatic relations with France,
10:09said General Mahamad Idris Déby, a few days after the announcement of this rupture,
10:15in agreement with his traditional ally, which was back to the independence of the country.
10:20France has already been forced to evacuate its troops from Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger
10:27between 2022 and 2023.
10:31I would like to point out, to raise all ambiguity, that this decision of rupture is by no means
10:41a rejection of international cooperation, nor a resumption in question of diplomatic
10:49relations with France.
10:51This decision was not taken lightly.
10:56It is the result of a deep reflection and a thorough assessment.
11:03It is a response to a prior commitment to the Italian people.
11:08Through my project of society, I have put into practice the promise of building reciprocal
11:19and balanced relations with our brothers and friends in a spirit of independence and respect
11:27for the sovereignty of the States.
11:30We have therefore decided to put an end to this military cooperation to reorient our
11:37partnership with France on areas that will have a positive impact on the daily lives
11:45of our respective populations.
11:49Joe Biden arrived on Monday in Luanda, capital of Angola, for the first and only visit of
11:55his mandate on the African continent.
11:57During this two-day trip, the American president will meet with his Angolan counterpart,
12:02João Lourenço, and deliver a speech at the National Museum of Slavery in the capital
12:08of this former Portuguese colony that borders the Atlantic Ocean.
12:13On Wednesday, he will go to Lobito, a port city about 500 km south of Luanda, to promote
12:19a major investment of his presidency in Africa, a gigantic railway link known as the Lobito
12:26Corridor.
12:36Back in the Kingdom today in Rabat, participants at the second annual conference of the International
12:41Commission on Children in Movement called for the update of data and measurement systems
12:48for children in movement.
12:50During this three-day meeting initiated by IDAC, in collaboration with the High Commissioner
12:55of the Plan, the participants stressed the importance of drawing the path forward to
13:01support children in movement and help them to meet the different challenges.
13:07On this occasion, the Secretary General of the HCPIH-RELAF indicated that in most countries,
13:13the data collection on children in movement remains quite fragmented between the different
13:19actors.
13:20I invite you to listen to some reactions.
13:36I invite you to listen to some reactions.
14:06I invite you to listen to some reactions.
14:37I invite you to listen to some reactions.
14:39In Morocco in particular, we work with the authorities
14:42in the framework of the implementation of their strategy of asylum and migration.
14:47This time in Tunisia, rural women launched a cry of heart
14:51at the National Congress of Social Movements
14:54to demand their protection through the application of laws
14:58in the face of the dark picture of the situation of women.
15:01Dr. Ulysse Najoa-Béchat tells us more.
15:05Despite the existence of a law on rural transport
15:08adopted by the Parliament in 2019,
15:11aimed at preventing journalists from the risks of the road,
15:15workers in the agricultural sector continue to be loaded
15:19in the death trucks on a daily basis,
15:22one on top of the other, like cattle,
15:25whose total indifference to regional and national authorities.
15:29This is how Marwa and her colleague Nadia
15:31describe their daily suffering.
15:34Marwa and her colleague came from the south of Tunisia
15:37to participate in the 5th National Congress of Social Movements
15:41to amplify the voice of more than 600,000 women
15:45working in the agricultural sector.
15:49Women who work in agriculture
15:52face great difficulties at all levels
15:55and on this occasion we ask the State
15:58to provide us with means of transport
16:01to protect us from the dangers we are exposed to on a daily basis.
16:07Our situation is difficult.
16:09Our rights are violated.
16:11Our means of transport are extremely dangerous.
16:13We are exposed to all kinds of dangers.
16:15There have been major accidents
16:17and the statistics and figures are terrifying in this regard.
16:20There are workers who are dead,
16:22workers who have been amputated hands.
16:24There are many other tragic cases.
16:27When we take the means of transport,
16:29we no longer think about anything other than working
16:32so that in the end we can get a small salary
16:36that will allow us to meet the needs of our children and families.
16:41However, the State has provided us with no protection.
16:46The Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights,
16:49which closely follows this issue,
16:51is said to be deeply outraged by the worrying situation
16:55of women working in the agricultural sector in Tunisia.
16:59According to the Forum,
17:01accidents numbering 84 since 2015
17:05have caused the deaths of 64 people.
17:11Transport accidents have not stopped
17:14and the number of victims has not ceased to increase since 2015.
17:18We have recorded 84 accidents
17:22that have resulted in 942 injured and 64 deaths.
17:26Of these, 57% occurred
17:28after the promulgation of the Law of 2019.
17:33Faced with a sad reality,
17:35agricultural workers represent the weak link
17:38of agricultural production.
17:40According to the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights,
17:44about 92% of rural active women in the agricultural sector
17:49are deprived of social coverage.
17:5298% of them are paid below the guaranteed minimum agricultural wage
17:57and 78% are not victims of violence.
18:04HIV continues to impact millions of lives around the world
18:08on December 1st.
18:10The Ivory Coast marked the 37th edition of the World Day
18:13to fight this disease.
18:15Melber Chelleville-Friede, Mérignac,
18:17gives us the countdown.
18:20Every December 1st, the world mobilizes to raise awareness
18:23about HIV and remind us of the urgency
18:26of continuing the fight against this pandemic.
18:28In the Ivory Coast, this 37th edition
18:31was an opportunity to reaffirm a collective commitment.
18:34A national ceremony brought together health actors,
18:37international partners associations.
18:40Philbert Guéhy, president of the Ivorian Network
18:43and the organization of people living with HIV,
18:46called for awareness and solidarity.
18:49The first donation of the blood I gave
18:53revealed my HIV positive status.
18:56This is the card.
18:58On August 30th, 1993,
19:00it was after this donation that I was informed.
19:03HIV is not the end of the world,
19:05so we encourage you.
19:07It's like you didn't know you were dying from HIV,
19:10but today HIV is no longer...
19:12So we encourage young people.
19:14And what saved me is the screening.
19:16It's because I did the screening.
19:18So we encourage young people to do the screening test.
19:21From there, we will know if they are infected or not.
19:24And if they are infected, there is a solution today.
19:26The director-coordinator of the National Programme
19:29for the Fight Against AIDS,
19:31as for him, took over this OBN
19:33to create an encouraging national bilan.
19:35He highlighted the significant reduction
19:37of new infections and the improvement of access to care,
19:40while calling for continuous vigilance
19:42against stigmatization.
19:44We need to adjust our strategy
19:47to achieve our goals.
19:49And we think that 2025 is an immediate goal.
19:52In 2025, we must reach 3 times 95.
19:55That is, to detect 95% of people
19:57who live with HIV in Ivory Coast.
19:59Put 95% of these people on treatment,
20:02and then we will see a viral load suppressed
20:04on 95% of people treated.
20:07If we reach this goal in 2025,
20:09we can hope in 2030
20:11to put AIDS in our country.
20:13This World Day has been a reminder.
20:16The fight against HIV is far from over.
20:19The Ivory Coast,
20:21thanks to the involvement of all actors,
20:23is resolutely committed to building a future
20:25where stigmatization disappears,
20:28where care is accessible to all,
20:31and prevention becomes a shared priority.
20:35Now let's go to our page
20:37dedicated to the Marrakech International Film Festival.
20:55In Marrakech, the 21st edition
20:57of the International Film Festival continues.
21:00This time, the 7th edition
21:02of the Atlas workshops has been launched.
21:05It is a professional platform
21:07that accompanies young Moroccan,
21:10Arab and African filmmakers.
21:12The edition has received 320 applications
21:15with projects from 13 countries
21:17on these Atlas workshops.
21:19I invite you to listen to the interview
21:21conducted by our special envoy, Ilham Berada,
21:23with Rémi Bonhomme, artistic director of the FIFM
21:27and also responsible for the Atlas workshops.
21:31The 21st edition of the International Film Festival
21:34in Marrakech continues,
21:36and yesterday, Sunday,
21:38the Atlas workshops were launched.
21:41To tell us about this exceptional edition
21:43of the Atlas workshops,
21:45I have the pleasure of listening to Rémi Bonhomme,
21:47responsible for the Atlas workshops,
21:49artistic director of the festival
21:51and above all, founder of these magnificent meetings.
21:54Rémi Bonhomme, thank you very much
21:56for accepting our invitation.
21:58The edition started with a lot of novelties this year.
22:01What can you tell us about the Atlas workshops?
22:03The Atlas workshops accompany young Moroccan,
22:06Arab and African filmmakers
22:08from early writing to post-production.
22:11Each year, we try to meet the specific needs
22:14that the producers and directors of Morocco
22:18and the region as a whole
22:20have been facing.
22:22The industry is constantly moving,
22:25so each year, these workshops launch new programs
22:30and adapt to meet these needs.
22:33This year, among the different novelties,
22:36we launched a program called A Classe Féchère.
22:39A Classe Féchère is a program
22:41for Moroccan filmmakers and directors,
22:43young talents from Morocco
22:46who want to open up internationally
22:48and follow in the footsteps
22:51of young filmmakers
22:53we have seen in the last few years
22:55and who have led them to do great international festivals.
22:59I think it goes without saying, of course,
23:01our reaction to the Gold Star,
23:03the latest edition of the festival,
23:05which was born at the Atlas workshops
23:08and was then exhibited at the Cannes Film Festival.
23:24That's all for today.
23:28See you next time on Medihan TV Africa.
