00:00Hello and welcome to Mediantv. Thank you for joining us for a new newscast. Here are the
00:21headlines.
00:22In Syria, the new power in place has met for the first time a senior UN official.
00:29Many chancelleries are multiplying the steps to establish a contact with the new authorities
00:34of the country.
00:35The Israeli army is pursuing its murderous attacks on refugee camps in the Gaza Strip.
00:43More than 40 Palestinians have been killed in the last 24 hours. We will talk about it
00:48in a moment.
00:49The heads of state and government of the CDAO announced a six-month delay for Burkina
00:58Faso, Mali and Niger.
00:59In prelude to this decision, the three countries of the missionaries have reaffirmed their
01:03irreversible decision to leave the CDAO.
01:08Foreign chancelleries are multiplying the steps to establish a contact with the new
01:14power in Syria.
01:15The special envoy of the UN for Syria, Geir Pedersen, met Abu Mohamed al-Jolani, head
01:20of the group Hayat Harir al-Sham.
01:22We must ensure that Syria receives immediate humanitarian aid for the population and for
01:27all the refugees who wish to return, declared the special envoy.
01:30The visit is the first of a senior UN official since the fall of the regime.
01:35The United Kingdom and the United States announced on Sunday that they had established diplomatic
01:38contacts with the new power in place, while Turkey opened its embassy in Damascus on Saturday
01:44after more than 12 years of shutdown.
01:48A week after the fall of Bashar al-Assad, the UN emissary for Syria is visiting Damascus.
01:54Geir Pedersen estimates that Syria needs a credible justice to avoid acts of revenge.
02:00Soheil Jalil tells us more.
02:01Syria needs a credible justice, according to the UN.
02:09The special envoy of the United Nations for Syria, Geir Pedersen, called on Sunday for
02:13increased and immediate aid to the country upon arrival in the capital, Damascus.
02:18The United Nations estimates that more than a million people have been displaced since
02:22the rebel offensive that chased Bashar al-Assad.
02:33We must put in place a political process that is inclusive for all Syrians.
02:37This process must obviously be carried out by the Syrians themselves.
02:41We all know that Syria is going through a huge humanitarian crisis.
02:45We must therefore ensure that they receive immediate and increased humanitarian aid.
02:49As I know, the security of the government is very, very bad.
03:20And then, of course, it's the whole question about economic recovery.
03:26We must ensure that this is resolved quickly.
03:29We can hope to see a quick end to the sanctions so that we can really see the reconstruction
03:34of Syria.
03:35We also need to see that there is justice and established responsibilities for the
03:39crimes committed.
03:41Remembering that on December 8, the rebel coalition entered Damascus and announced the
03:45overthrow of power after a surprising and brilliant offensive that allowed it to seize
03:50a large part of the country in 11 days.
03:53The war in Syria caused more than half a million deaths, devastated the country and pushed
03:586 million Syrians, a quarter of the population, to flee.
04:03In Syria, Turkish rescuers are conducting research in the prison of Sayyid Nayya.
04:07The operations should allow to find people detained in underground hideouts.
04:11Nearly 80 Turkish disaster management rescuers will conduct research on several underground
04:16levels to verify the presence or absence of underground hideouts still undiscovered.
04:21Thousands of detainees, some packed with weapons, will be sent to Syria.
04:27The Kremlin has not decided the fate of its military bases in Syria and Moscow.
04:32It could consider maintaining them despite the flight of its ally, former President Bashar
04:37al-Assad.
04:38There is no definitive decision on this subject.

06:16I am an employee of a public school.
06:19The rate of attendance on Sundays does not exceed 30%,
06:22but the numbers should increase gradually.
06:25On the way to school, girls make the sign of victory.
06:28Others proudly wave flags floating in the wind.
06:31I am optimistic and very happy.
06:34Before, I was walking in the street,
06:37being afraid of being entangled in the military service.
06:40I was afraid when I arrived at a checkpoint.
06:43Students and schoolchildren took part in a spontaneous demonstration
06:46Students and schoolchildren took part in a spontaneous demonstration
06:49in the direction of the central square of the Omeads,
06:52where the Syrians have been celebrating the fall of Bashar al-Assad for a week.
06:55Life has also resumed in business and businesses.
06:58Residents went back to their offices from the first hours of the day.

07:07targeting several areas of the enclave.
07:1040 Palestinians died, including a journalist from Al-Jazeera and three rescuers.
07:1340 Palestinians died, including a journalist from Al-Jazeera and three rescuers.
07:16Israel once again bombed the refugee camp of Nusayrat in the center
07:19and targeted a clinic in the north of the enclave.
07:22Four people were killed and eight injured in a strike
07:25targeting a tent housing dozens of people
07:28displaced from al-Balad in the center of the Gaza Strip.
07:34In Gaza, 96% of children think their death is imminent,
07:37while 49% of them want to die.
07:40A study supported by the World Child Alliance reveals the extent of psychological damage
07:43A study supported by the World Child Alliance reveals the extent of psychological damage
07:46on young Palestinians while the Israeli army continues its murderous attacks in the Palestinian enclave.
07:49Explanations with Soheil Jalil.
07:5496% of children in Gaza believe their death is imminent.
07:5799% of children in Gaza believe their death is imminent.
08:0049% of them really want to die.
08:03Atrocious figures reveal the extent of psychological damage
08:06on children in Gaza.
08:09A report written by the Community Training Center for Crisis Management
08:12based in Gaza, supported by the World Child Alliance.
08:15based in Gaza, supported by the World Child Alliance.
08:18According to the report, 92% of minors do not accept reality.
08:2179% suffer from nightmares
08:24and 73% show symptoms of aggressiveness.
08:2787% show intense fear.
08:3077% of children avoid talking about traumatic events.
08:33In June, the study questioned parents
08:36or children's tutors from families
08:39where at least one child was disabled, injured or unaccompanied.
08:42where at least one child was disabled, injured or unaccompanied.
08:45A report that shows without a doubt
08:48that Gaza is one of the most horrible places in the world for children.
08:51These children have witnessed the bombing of their homes and schools,
08:54have experienced the loss of loved ones
08:57and have been moved or separated from their families
09:00while fleeing for safety.
09:03The extent of the displacement is dizzying.
09:061.9 million Palestinians in Gaza,
09:09about 90% of the total population of the territory,
09:12have been forced to flee, often several times.
09:15It is estimated that 17,000 children in Gaza are unaccompanied
09:18or separated from their parents,
09:21exposing them to an increased risk of exploitation, abuse
09:24and other serious violations of their rights.
09:27The World Child Association and its partners
09:30have so far been able to help 17,000 children in Gaza
09:33by providing them with mental health support.
09:36World Child aims to help 1 million children
09:39with psychosocial support,
09:42which, according to them, will be the biggest humanitarian response
09:45of these three decades of existence.
09:48Human Rights Watch accuses paramilitary forces of rapid support
09:51and allied militias in Sudan
09:54and of generalized sexual violence in the south of the country.
09:57In a report published on Monday,
10:00the Human Rights Defense Organization claims to have documented
10:03dozens of cases involving women and girls aged 7 to 50
10:06victims of sexual violence in southern Kordofan.
10:09Southern Kordofan is largely controlled
10:12by the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Northern Sudan,
10:15a rebel armed group that controls Mount Nuba in Sudan
10:18and certain parts of the state of Blue Nile.
10:22The heads of state and government of the Economic Community of West African States
10:25have announced a six-month delay
10:28for Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger.
10:31This transition period will last until July 29, 2025
10:34and will keep the doors of the CEDEAO open
10:37only two days before the summit.
10:40Burkina, Mali and Niger, whose representatives were absent
10:43at the summit, reaffirmed their irreversible decision
10:46to leave the CEDEAO.
10:49Here is the analysis of Bakary Gueye,
10:52a Mauritanian journalist, who comes back
10:55on the highlights of this meeting.
10:58As you know, this summit was a summit
11:01we could say of the last chance,
11:04because on the agenda of this summit
11:07there was the problem of the withdrawal
11:10of the three countries of the AES
11:13which concern the heads of state of the CEDEAO
11:16because it is a very hard blow.
11:19So we had to try to save the furniture
11:22and that was the main point
11:25that was on the agenda
11:28even if at this summit
11:31we also had to discuss several files
11:34including the security file
11:37and we also had to discuss
11:40the annual reports of 2024
11:44on the state of the community
11:47and the report of the 53rd regular meeting
11:50of the Council of Mediation and Security.
11:53There were also the economic issues
11:56that were on the agenda
11:59because there is the launch of the ECO
12:02which is out of order since 2020.
12:05So on all these issues
12:08the heads of state tried to find solutions
12:12and on the main issue
12:15which is the withdrawal of the countries of the AES
12:18the heads of state deployed all their efforts
12:21all the imaginable imagination
12:24to try to retain these countries
12:27and the head of state of Senegal
12:30who was the main mediator
12:33in this affair
12:36had a mandate to continue these efforts
12:40so that these countries can return to reason.
12:46In Mayotte, the cyclone Chidot passed
12:49the archipelago is on red alert
12:52rescue operations are underway
12:55to come to the aid of the displaced
12:58the ministers of the interior and the overseas
13:01are expected this Monday
13:04in the poorest department of France
13:07the cyclone destroyed on Saturday
13:10the small archipelago where 1 third of the population
13:13lives in precarious habitat.
13:16I invite you to listen to the mayor of Mayotte
13:19François-Xavier Bieuville.
13:22It is extremely difficult to say
13:25I think there will certainly be several hundred
13:28maybe we will approach the thousand
13:31or even a few thousand
13:35I was myself at the command center
13:38with all my collaborators
13:41the ceiling of the operational center flew
13:44we found ourselves in front of the storm
13:47like each of us, we lived it
13:50and so this event has a much more important account
13:53we will try to do it
13:56because it is up to us to draw this balance.
14:00In Senegal, the organs of the media sector
14:03find themselves in uncomfortable economic situations
14:06the management of the sector is pointed
14:09and professionals call for the adoption
14:12of a more suitable economic model for the current situation
14:15This is a report by Abdoul Rahim Bari and Cheikh Ndao
14:18While information is spreading at lightning speed
14:21the media landscape in Senegal is in full transition period
14:24between printed newspapers, televisions
14:27and other online information platforms
14:30The classical economic models of the media face disturbances
14:33A polarization that is explained
14:36by a difficult situation
14:39of the media observed since the health crisis
14:42what we call COVID-19
14:45There is a problem
14:48also related to the narrowness of advertising
14:51and beyond this rarity of advertising resources
14:54there is a problem
14:57In terms of advertising
15:00there is also the fact
15:03that certain media
15:06lack a bit of innovation
15:09lack a bit of inspiration
15:12However, the technological mutation
15:15of the Senegalese media is an emergency
15:18for a suitable economic model
15:21digitization remains an alternative
15:24There is a question of ingenuity and adaptation
15:27As I said earlier
15:30the habits of information consumption have changed
15:33People consume information like they consume fast food
15:36What do you propose to the public?
15:39How do you propose it?
15:42There are so many questions on the table
15:45but for me the economic model
15:48must be based on adaptation
15:51We know how to adapt
15:54we have gained a lot of money
15:57on digital platforms
16:00which are a relay of growth at our level
16:03To guarantee the survival of the Senegalese media
16:06in view of a viable economic model
16:09restructuring is necessary
16:12Restructuring, rethinking
16:15not only the economic model
16:18but also the media
16:21beyond the economic model
16:24because it is not only a question
16:27of the economic model
16:30it is first of all a question of restructuring
16:33it is also a question
16:36of organization
16:39The press constitutes a sector in full evolution
16:42hence the need for press bosses
16:45The objective is to develop sustainable solutions
16:48to put in place a viable and resilient economic model
16:51capable of dealing with the shock
16:54And now it is time for the guest of the big news
16:57and if the international news is full of upheavals
17:00the situation in Gaza remains deplorable
17:03Israel has intensified its strikes in recent days
17:06More than 40 Palestinians were killed yesterday
17:09in Israeli strikes
17:12We are joined by Amjad Shehab
17:15Professor of Political Science at the University of Al-Quds
17:18Hello
17:21Hello, thank you for inviting me
17:24In the media we hear less and less
17:27about the situation in Gaza
17:30Do you think this reflects a slowdown
17:33of Israeli bombings on the ground
17:36or is it simply a less important media coverage?
17:42I don't think either
17:45They are continuing at the same level
17:48committing carnage massacres
17:51We can use the map of the Gaza Strip
17:54as a negotiation map
17:57On the one hand
18:00on the international level
18:03they are trying to normalize
18:06with the strategic tree
18:09a total withdrawal
18:12as requested by the Hamas movement
18:15or they are also trying to win
18:18a strategic victory
18:21by continuing to put military pressure
18:24on the Gaza Strip
18:27according to the slogan
18:30of the Hamas movement
18:33or forcing the Hamas movement
18:36to withdraw a victory on the ground
18:39We can have political concessions
18:42by continuing to do the same level
18:45of massacres, bombings
18:48and destruction of the entire infrastructure
18:51and on the general level
18:54as it was prepared
18:57which is due to military pressure
19:00which is due to military pressure
19:03which is due to military pressure
19:06in northern Gaza
19:09to try to do ethnic cleansing
19:12in northern Gaza
19:15They have several scenarios
19:18but the only scenario not proposed
19:21on the table until now
19:24is to cease fire
19:27and also to make concessions
19:31to cease fire
19:34and to accept military presence
19:37on the borders with Egypt
19:40with Philadelphia
19:43or also on the dam
19:46Until now, the project
19:49to cease fire in exchange for prisoners
19:52between the two sides has not succeeded
19:55despite the optimistic statements
19:58of several sources
20:01whether American or Israeli
20:04but the decision to accept the proposal
20:07to make an exchange
20:10remains in the same situation
20:13because the gap between the two
20:16still remains
20:20Due to technical problems
20:23we end this interview
20:26Dear viewers, this is the end of this news
20:29Thank you for following it
