00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediain TV for your press release.
00:13How does the city of Essaouira want to dethrone Marrakech?
00:16This is the challenge posed to open this press release.
00:19Eclipsed by the aura of the city of Ocre,
00:21Essaouira seems determined to reverse the trend in the coming years
00:25as a foreign consortium plans to inject millions of dirhams
00:28into large-scale projects that could reposition the city
00:31as an essential destination for international tourism.
00:35But to claim a new status,
00:37it is focusing on concrete projects, eco-responsible spaces,
00:40a modernized port and an international promotion campaign
00:43focused on authenticity.
00:45A strategic turn that could allow it to seduce a high-end clientele
00:49while reinforcing its attractiveness
00:51with lovers of culture and eco-tourism.
00:55Adding that the city of the Alysées
00:57sees its popularity growing regularly
00:59to the point of being recognized as the second destination
01:02for German tourists in 2025,
01:04according to Radio Calabrese in Italy.
01:07According to a survey by Skyscanner,
01:09the main black spot of Essaouira
01:11is still the lack of modern infrastructure,
01:13a field where Marrakech has made a clear advance,
01:16concludes the specialized magazine.
01:19Despite regional disparities,
01:21Africa is showing a real commitment
01:23to a more sustainable energy transition
01:25with an accelerated adoption of solar technologies
01:28to diversify their energy mix,
01:30explains Le Maroc Diplomatique.
01:32The Africa Solar Outlook 2025 report
01:34by the African Solar Industry Association
01:37highlights these progress,
01:39specifying that Africa added 2.5 gigawatt Crete in 2024,
01:43thus bringing the total solar capacity to 19.2 gigawatt Crete.
01:48But the online media specifies
01:50that the figures do not take into account residential facilities
01:53and some unauthorized projects,
01:55suggesting that real growth could be more important.
01:58It is clear that these data show a strong commitment
02:00to renewable energies,
02:02especially solar, in a context where many African countries
02:05seek to diversify their energy mix
02:07and thus reduce their dependence on fossil fuels.
02:10The African continent is on a promising trajectory
02:13towards a more sustainable energy future
02:15with solar energy at the forefront.
02:17If the challenges related to infrastructure
02:19and energy are addressed,
02:21the continent could become a successful energy transition model
02:24that benefits both its environment and its populations,
02:27adds Le Maroc Diplomatique.
02:30In Lebanon, 22 people were killed by the Israeli army
02:33in several southern border towns
02:36on Lebanese people trying to return to their villages,
02:39according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
02:41At least hundreds of people were found on the roads,
02:44on foot or in convoys of dozens of cars,
02:47sometimes waving yellow flags.
02:49Hezbollah reports on this today.
02:51If the Lebanese Islamist organization
02:53assures that these are spontaneous movements
02:55of anxious inhabitants,
02:57and to return home as soon as possible,
02:59many observers believe that the Shiite party
03:01could be involved in the organization of these convoys
03:03in an attempt to put pressure on the Hebrew state
03:06to withdraw from the front line
03:08without risking a new war,
03:10underlines the Lebanese daily.
03:12The United States has claimed that the ceasefire
03:14between Lebanon and Israel
03:16will remain in force until February 18,
03:18after Israel has declared
03:20that it will maintain its troops
03:22in southern Lebanon beyond the deadline
03:24initially set for Sunday.
03:28South Korea.
03:29To continue this press conference,
03:31President Yoon Suk-hyol becomes the country's first president
03:34in an exercise to be inculpated and detained,
03:36informs us the Korea Times.
03:38Prosecutors in charge of the investigation
03:40have estimated that the head of state,
03:42at the cost of a destitution procedure
03:44aborted by martial law,
03:46was the leader of the insurrection,
03:48his inculpation associated with a detention.
03:50A first for a Korean president in exercise,
03:52according to the Korean information portal,
03:54means that he will now be held
03:56behind bars until his trial,
03:58which must take place in six months.
04:00Prosecutors had asked for an extension
04:02of the detention period,
04:04invoking the need to continue to question him.
04:06However, the court of the Central District of Seoul
04:08rejected the request twice
04:10at the Gurdjieff Weekend.
04:12According to the law, a suspect must be released
04:14if he is not inculpated during the detention period.
04:16However, Yoon Suk-hyol refused
04:18to cooperate with the criminal investigation
04:20on his declaration of martial law,
04:22his lawyers claiming that the investigators
04:24have no legal authority.

04:28According to an evaluation by the CIA,
04:30the COVID-19 pandemic was probably
04:32due to a virus leak
04:34from a Chinese laboratory,
04:36reveals the New York Times.
04:38Five years after the coronavirus pandemic,
04:40a new report on the origin of this virus,
04:42which has killed more than 7 million people
04:44around the world,
04:46including 1.2 million Americans,
04:48remains controversial.
04:50In a statement published last Saturday,
04:52the American intelligence agency
04:54announces that it now favors
04:56the hypothesis of a laboratory leak,
04:58reports the New York Times.
05:00A position that stands out
05:02with the prudence displayed
05:04until recently by the intelligence agency,
05:06underlines the newspaper.
05:08The American publication
05:10specifies that this change of position
05:12did not rely on any new element
05:14but on a more in-depth examination
05:16of the conditions in which
05:18Wuhan's high-security laboratories
05:20worked at the time
05:22the pandemic began,
05:24a hypothesis necessarily interpreted
05:26by China as a political manipulation
05:28by the United States.
