00:00INTRO
00:16Welcome back to a new edition of the Média Morning. Here are the headlines.
00:21Israel announced this Tuesday that it had launched a military operation, killing 10 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian Authority.
00:36Turkey is furious, and in the ski resort of Kartal Kaya, where a fire broke out at a luxury hotel yesterday, at least 76 people died, according to a latest report.
00:49Soon, a unified force of 5,000 men for Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso to fight terrorism. This is what the Nigerian Minister of Defense announced this Tuesday.
01:04Israel announced this Tuesday that it had launched a military operation, killing 10 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian Authority.
01:19Israel announced this Tuesday that it had launched a military operation, killing 10 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian Authority.
01:47Just a few days after the ceasefire in Gaza, the city of Jenin is once again subject to Israeli raids.
01:58The Israeli army has announced that it has launched what it calls an anti-terrorist operation in this city north of the occupied Cisjordan.
02:08The large-scale operation aims to eradicate terrorism in Jenin, said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
02:20Jenin, and in particular its refugee camp, are regularly the targets of Israeli military intervention.
02:28In recent months, these attacks have followed, leaving entire neighborhoods cut off from each other.
02:33Faced with this displacement of the cycle of violence, the UN Secretary-General said he was very concerned about the violence in Cisjordan, especially the military operation in Jenin.
02:47Antonio Guterres called on Israel to show maximum restraint.
02:53The violence in Cisjordan intensified the day after Donald Trump's return to the White House.
03:00Any total or partial annexation of Cisjordan by Israel would be a very serious violation of international law.
03:09This is the warning of the UN Secretary-General, who denounces the statements in this regard of high-ranking Israeli officials.
03:16I am deeply concerned by the existential threat to the integrity and continuity of the Palestinian territory occupied by Gaza and Cisjordan,
03:24said Antonio Guterres at a meeting of the Security Council on the situation in the Middle East.
03:36The Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army, General Herzi Alevi, presented yesterday his resignation,
03:43evoking his responsibility in the attack on Hamas against Israel on October 7, 2023, according to his letter sent by the army.
03:51But this resignation hurts his government in a political situation already very tense.
03:59A few minutes later, the head of the opposition, Yair Lapid, called on the social network X to resign the government of Benjamin Netanyahu.
04:07The Minister of Defense, Israel Kadz, said he was going to meet candidates in succession, according to a statement from his office.
04:16In the news also, the great anger in Turkey is in the ski resort of Kartal Kaya, where the fire of a luxury hotel apparently deprived of security systems,
04:30has made yesterday at least 76 deaths, according to a recent report.
04:34And for the Minister of the Interior, Ali Irlikaya, who had also previously mentioned the number of 51 injured,
04:41the identification work continued at night at the hospital in Boluf, the regional capital where the victims were transported.
04:50Following this drama, the Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, announced a national mourning day this Wednesday.
04:58The fire broke out, for an unknown reason, in the middle of the night in the Grand Kartal hotel in Kartal Kaya.
05:05The Minister of Tourism, Bakan Ersoy, assured on the social network X that the hotel had been inspected and certified by firefighters in 2021 and 2024,
05:15but several witnesses denounced the absence of an alert system and evacuation.
05:23In Davos, Donald Trump is in all the headlines this year at the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Switzerland.
05:33Neither the European Ursula von der Leyen nor the Chinese Ding Zhijiang pronounced his name during their opening speech this Tuesday, decrypting with Jalil's ears.
05:45Trump puts the world elites of Davos in complete discomfort.
05:51The World Economic Forum in Davos has been meeting since Monday, January 20, 60 heads of state and government, as well as 900 business leaders.
06:00However, this year, a subject occupies all minds, the return of Donald Trump to the White House and its consequences on the world economy.
06:07Barely settled in the White House, Trump claimed that he intended to impose 25% customs rights for products from Canada and Mexico from February 1.
06:18While waiting for Trump's videoconference, scheduled only for January 23,
06:23it is the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the Chinese Vice Prime Minister, Ding Zhijiang, who held the opening speeches in Davos.
06:32Two continents for a single vision, the President of the European Commission, she, has exhorted the European Union to change and move at a higher speed.
06:47We have entered a new era of fierce geostrategic competition.
06:52The main world economies are disputing access to raw materials, new technologies and the world's trade routes.
06:59From AI to clean technology, from quantum computing to space, from the Arctic to the Earth.
07:06As this competition intensifies, we will probably continue to have frequent use of economic tools such as sanctions, export controls and customs tariffs intended to preserve economic and national security.
07:23But it is important to find a balance.
07:26The imperative is to preserve our security in the face of our opportunity to innovate and enhance our prosperity.
07:37The Chinese Vice Prime Minister has defended multilateralism.
07:43China is likely to be one of the next on the list of countries affected by the punitive import taxes promised by Donald Trump.
07:53In terms of foreign trade, we...
07:58Economic globalization is not a zero-sum game where you lose and I win, but a process of mutual benefits and shared progress.
08:08Of course, economic globalization can also cause contradictions and disagreements in the distribution of benefits.
08:15We must fully exploit all the possibilities that are available to us to overcome economic globalization, overcome development difficulties,
08:24use the power of inclusive cooperation and promote economic globalization towards a new, more dynamic, more inclusive and more sustainable stage.
08:33Moreover, if Europe and China are among those who have the most to lose in the face of the protectionist policy proclaimed by Trump,
08:44its position on the international scene will also have an important impact on a country like Ukraine, which is approaching three years of war with Russia.
08:51Conflicts in the Middle East, at a time when a truce has just come into force in Gaza, should also be at the heart of the interventions of Israeli President Isaac Herzog
09:00and Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohamed Ben Abdel Rahman Al Thani.
09:07In Morocco, in the face of the wave of cold that affects several regions of the kingdom,
09:12the Ministry of the Interior mobilizes to provide its support in carrying out the high instructions of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI.
09:19The authorities remain on the side of those who live to come to the aid of the affected populations.
09:28On high royal instructions, maximum mobilization in several regions.
09:33The services of the Ministry of the Interior remain mobilized alongside all concerned ministries and administrations
09:40and the various stakeholders have a global mobilization of all logistical and human resources.
09:45The objective is to provide support and assistance to citizens so that they can face the cold wave that several regions of the kingdom are facing.
09:59To face the cold wave in our prefecture, we have equipped the schools with the necessary heating wood,
10:05namely 120,000 kilograms of wood distributed between 31 schools and ministerial dormitories.
10:10More than 430 classes have been equipped with heating equipment
10:14so that the teaching of our students is not disturbed in these cold years.
10:26This plan targets a total population estimated at nearly 872,778 inhabitants,
10:32with 169,134 households and 2,014 dwellings in Douar,
10:38including 241 territorial communes at the level of 28 prefectures and provinces.
10:52In application of high royal instructions and in application of the national plan to fight the cold wave,
10:57several logistical and human resources have been made available to local authorities
11:02in particular for the de-icing of roadways and the disenclosure of impacted Douars.
11:07In this sense, more than 25 engineers, technicians and truck drivers and mechanics have been mobilized.
11:13In addition, nine de-icing machines and nearly ten other de-icing machines.
11:21In this momentum of mobilization, the Ministry of the Interior,
11:24through its central and provincial services,
11:27has worked to strengthen the ability to intervene through a series of measures
11:31based on the continuous monitoring and assessment of the situation on the ground.
11:35The guarantee of normal supply of the concerned regions
11:39in first-need products and in different means of heating.
11:43Similarly, several operations of food distribution,
11:47of blankets and wood heating in the targeted categories have been carried out in the concerned provinces.
11:54For a few weeks now, the Casablanca Regional Blood Transfusion Center
11:59has suffered a significant drop in blood reserves.
12:03They have reached an average of three days.
12:07Younes Mazih and Younes Serebry have taken a look at the story.
12:13The Casablanca Regional Blood Transfusion Center is sounding the alarm.
12:18Covering only three days of need with 200 donors per day,
12:21the center's reserves are far from being sufficient.
12:25This shortage is mainly due to the decrease in the number of donors
12:29due to winter diseases and the use of antibiotics
12:33that limit the possibility of donating blood.
12:37The flu is one of the main reasons why people do not donate their blood.
12:42Taking antibiotics also affects this operation.
12:46This has led to a significant drop in the number of donors,
12:49especially among volunteers.
12:52We therefore call on the people of Casablanca to come and donate a drop of blood.
12:56As for people who have the flu,
12:59at the cost of antibiotics, they can donate their blood after a 10-day delay.
13:07Despite this situation, many citizens have continued to go to the transfusion centers,
13:13thus contributing to an increase in the reserves.
13:15A total of about 400 donors is still necessary to meet the needs of hospitals.
13:21The Casablanca region, according to official statistics,
13:24represents 36% of the national blood consumption.
13:30I came to donate blood because I am used to donating every three months,
13:34since the demand is important.
13:37People need us, especially when the reserves are low.
13:39I came to donate blood.
13:42It is an act of generosity during this holy month.
13:46We hope that others will follow this example.
13:49This situation of shortage in Casablanca
13:52reflects the reality of many centers across the kingdom,
13:56which need more donors to strengthen the reserves
14:00and guarantee sufficient coverage.
14:03The World Health Organization recommends
14:05maintaining blood reserves that cover a period of about 7 days.
14:11Since December 30, Morocco has introduced a major reform
14:15in its construction sector,
14:18with the implementation of a new obligation of insurance
14:22for real estate projects.
14:25The initiative aims to improve, among other things,
14:28the quality of construction,
14:30and to protect the construction workers
14:33from financial risks.
14:36More details with Selwa El Khalibi and Dina Mreni.
14:40Tourism, construction and civil responsibility
14:44are now mandatory in Morocco.
14:47The aim is to guarantee better protection
14:50for the parties involved in construction projects
14:53and to strengthen the respect for regulatory requirements in the sector.
14:57The construction sector is a sector
15:00that offers several employment opportunities in Morocco.
15:04In this sense, insurance is essentially aimed
15:07at protecting this sector.
15:10The Moroccan Federation of Insurance
15:13has long demanded a restructuring of the construction sector.
15:17We are now in the process of restructuring
15:20the construction sector,
15:22and we invite insurers to review the insurance rates
15:25they propose to allow everyone
15:28to have access to these coverages.
15:31Tourism, construction and civil responsibility
15:34are now mandatory in Morocco.
15:37The aim is to guarantee better protection
15:40for the parties involved in construction projects
15:43and to strengthen the respect for regulatory requirements
15:46in the sector.
15:49Tourism, construction and civil responsibility
15:52are now mandatory in Morocco.
15:55This includes the damage guarantee
15:58that covers the equipment used on the site
16:01as well as the civil responsibility guarantee.
16:04This covers the financial consequences
16:07of the damage caused during the work.
16:10As for the decades-long civil responsibility insurance,
16:13it is mandatory for the professionals in charge of the work,
16:16including architects, engineers and entrepreneurs.
16:18After being left for a long time voluntarily,
16:21insurance for the construction sector
16:24has become mandatory.
16:27These insurances aim to protect construction companies
16:30as well as professionals in the sector.
16:33It should be noted that the obligations
16:36of the Tourism, Construction and Civil Responsibility insurance
16:39are for industrial, commercial,
16:42hotel, sports and housing construction.
16:45These mandatory insurances
16:48also cover residential buildings
16:51with more than three floors
16:54or with a surface area of more than 800 m2.
16:57We now go to Tunisia,
17:00where five members of the Executive Bureau
17:03of the Tunisian Union for Primary Labor,
17:06a union whose country has claimed
17:09during a press conference
17:12the need to hold an extraordinary congress
17:15and call on the Secretary-General
17:18of the Tunisian Union for Primary Labor,
17:21Nourdine Tabboubi.
17:24In spite of the abandoned political and economic news
17:27and subject to a controversial word,
17:30the Tunisian Union for Primary Labor,
17:33the most powerful union in the country,
17:36shines through its absence.
17:39It is going through an unprecedented crisis
17:42marked by deep internal divergences
17:45that have reached the point of demanding
17:48a solution to this crisis,
17:51which we consider to be the most dangerous
17:54of all the crises it has experienced.
17:57With the congress held in July 2021,
18:00the UGTT began to disunite.
18:03The latter allowed the Secretary-General
18:06of the organization, Nourdine Tabboubi,
18:09to proceed with a revision
18:12of the status of the union
18:14and to draft a third mandate
18:17within his executive office.
18:20This had been described as a forced passage.
18:23Since then, he has lost all legitimacy
18:26in the eyes of the public
18:29and a large part of its 750,000 members.
18:32There is a serious crisis within the union.
18:35It has proven that it is unable
18:38to formulate a solution
18:41to the crisis.
18:44The UGTT has not been able to
18:47manage its social files,
18:50which prompted the President to seize the opportunity
18:53to deal with the union issue himself.
18:56This can be seen through his recent speech
18:59on the modification of the labor code
19:02and by talking about working women
19:05in the agricultural sector
19:08and many other social issues
19:11that the Tunisian labor union
19:14is facing.
19:17The disunion has been accentuated
19:20within this organization.
19:23By playing the role of a docile organization
19:26and prioritizing the salvation of the country,
19:29the UGTT has been trapped
19:32in the populism instilled by the system
19:35of governance by the bases
19:38aimed at disintegrating the intermediary entities
19:41and the liberal approach
19:44of the UGTT.
19:47The UGTT will be led by 5,000 soldiers
19:50from the Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali
19:53to fight against terrorism.
19:56This is what the Nigerian Minister of Defense
19:59announced on Tuesday.
20:02These three countries formed a confederation
20:05last year, the Alliance of States of the Sahel.
20:08In this common space, our forces
20:11can now intervene together,
20:14which is practically ready
20:17with a force of 5,000 men.
20:20This unified force will not only have its personnel
20:23but also its aerial and land means,
20:26its information means and of course
20:29its coordination system, he added
20:32during an interview with the Nigerian public television
20:35explaining that it is a matter of weeks
20:38before it is operational.
20:41The three countries of the Alliance of States of the Sahel
20:44have a total area of 1.8 million square kilometers.
20:47They have been facing
20:50the recurring attacks of terrorist groups
20:53for a decade. We are in the same space,
20:56we are facing the same type of threat,
20:59in particular this threat of criminal groups.
21:02We had to mutualize our efforts,
21:05declared General Mondi.
21:08And then in Chad, the Constitutional Council
21:11confirmed the victory of the party in power,
21:14with the definitive results
21:17of the legislative elections of December.
21:20The first organized in the country since 2011.
21:23The MPS party won
21:26a crushing majority
21:29of 124 seats out of 188,
21:32confirmed Jean-Bernard Padaret,
21:35President of the Constitutional Council.
21:38These definitive results confirm
21:41the provisional results announced in mid-January
21:44of this election.
21:51That's all for now.
21:57Enjoy the rest of the program on Mediantv.
