[00:00:00] on Sunday in the journal de l'Afrique on France
[00:00:02] 24.
[00:00:08] Around the world with a new newspaper, the headlines of which are as follows: Russia and
[00:00:11] Ukraine continue to trade blows. Last night was deadly on
[00:00:15] both sides, two people were killed in the Moscow region, in the
[00:00:19] outskirts of Kyiv, there are at least four dead including three
[00:00:22] up after the AFD's breakthrough children.
[00:00:25] We continue to follow this ongoing vote in Germany this Sunday,
[00:00:28] legislative elections in... Lender, that of Berlin and that of
[00:00:32] Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Two high-risk
[00:00:35] elections for Chancellor Mertz, more unpopular than
[00:00:38] ever. Antoine Mariotti will tell us why in a
[00:00:41] moment. Hello to you, right away.
[00:00:43] suite.
[00:00:47] And as for the Middle East, Washington says it fears a rapid escalation
[00:00:50] after the attack carried out by the Houthis
[00:00:54] Quentin Muller, I suggest you yesterday on Riyadh, a fuel depot was hit, another missile would have
[00:00:57] on the local market, the squash then been intercepted and destroyed according to Saudi Arabia. you say:
[00:01:13] hundreds of Ukrainian drones launched on the Russian capital
[00:01:16] Moscow and its region, that was last night, a refinery and residential
[00:01:19] areas were hit, two people were killed in this massive
[00:01:23] attack carried out on the 3rd day of a legislative vote which has been held since
[00:01:27] Friday in Russia, in Ukraine the night was
[00:01:30] also deadly, five people were killed including three children. The
[00:01:33] latest images commented by Axel
[00:01:36] Chamber of Agriculture and Fisheries, Simon.
[00:01:39] According to the mayor of Moscow, it is an unprecedented Ukrainian offensive.
[00:01:42] the extreme division of government The Russian capital and its region were the target of several hundred Ukrainian
[00:01:46] drones. While most were
[00:01:48] and neck with the intercepted and shot down, several escaped Russian
[00:01:51] anti-aircraft defense and notably struck several floors of a residential
[00:01:54] building in the capital or this oil
[00:01:57] refinery. Other devices fell in this residential
[00:02:01] area of Sofino in the Moscow region, causing casualties
[00:02:04] and significant damage.
[00:02:08] I was leaving my building, I had walked about twenty steps from the entrance when
[00:02:12] the explosion sounded, the windows shattered, people started
[00:02:16] screaming, I turned around, the entrance doors had been
[00:02:19] blown away, there were injured, probably even one
[00:02:22] dead, but we can't be sure, the emergency services arriving
[00:02:25] on site didn't let us get close, this
[00:02:29] massive attack of Ukrainian drones comes in a context
[00:02:32] of intensifying fighting on both sides, a series of Russian strikes
[00:02:36] on more than 30 sites including the Kyiv
[00:02:40] this text is being held in Paris, Place de region killed several people including children on Saturday and
[00:02:42] crossing, her sense of Sunday. This offensive also comes on the 3rd and last day of voting in Russia
[00:02:46] and has been denounced by the Russian authorities as aiming to
[00:02:50] disrupt the voting process. In the Kherson region, a southern
[00:02:53] region of Ukraine controlled by Russia, a drone notably
[00:02:55] killed several people including an employee of the electoral
[00:02:59] commission, more than 4 and a half years after the start of the
[00:03:02] large-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, these
[00:03:05] legislative elections aim to renew the Duma, the lower house of the Russian
[00:03:08] parliament. In a context of repression of all forms of
[00:03:12] opposition, it should, unsurprisingly, result in the victory
[00:03:17] satisfied with of Vladimir Putin's party. In the news this Sunday, also this
[00:03:20] high-risk election in Germany, a risky election for the German
[00:03:24] Chancellor first and foremost, Friedrich Merz, weakened by the rise of the far
[00:03:27] right in Saxony-Anhalt, that was 2
[00:03:30] weeks ago, this time we are voting in two federal states, that of
[00:03:33] Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and
[00:03:37] then in the region of Berlin, where the Chancellor's
[00:03:41] CDU and the radical left are neck and neck, Julien
[00:03:44] Dubois.
[00:03:46] two regional elections and a day that could be
[00:03:49] decisive for the future of Friedrich Merz at the head of
[00:03:53] 1953, well since the Germany, in the capital have melons that will allow them to Berlin, both city and
[00:03:56] region, the Chancellor's party, the CDU, could lose
[00:03:59] the mayoralty. The latest polls announce a close
[00:04:02] result between the radical left party Die Linke and the
[00:04:05] Christian Democrats. The AFD, the far-right party, is
[00:04:09] credited with 18% of voting intentions, double its score in the
[00:04:13] last elections of 2023.
[00:04:15] disappearing completely from In the rural state of Mecklenburg-
[00:04:17] the political scene in the other region of Western Pomerania, the CDU is also threatened. The party
[00:04:21] is completely out of the running for victory. According to the
[00:04:25] latest polls, it should be between the Social Democrats and the AFD
[00:04:28] who are neck and neck. In this region, the far
[00:04:32] right is supported by determined voters, the current
[00:04:36] government has done nothing in 9 years, I continue to manage as best I can,
[00:04:39] but I still haven't been able to turn on the heating in winter.
[00:04:43] What do I want? I want things
[00:04:45] to get better.
[00:04:48] things like the rise in gasoline And that asylum seekers who come here don't get everything they
[00:04:50] want.
[00:04:53] According to the polls, the Chancellor's party is only credited with 7%
[00:04:57] of the votes, not far from the 5% needed to be represented in
[00:05:01] the regional parliament, a non- qualification of the CDU would be a
[00:05:04] first in post-war Germany. two weeks after the AFD's victory in
[00:05:08] Saxony, this Sunday's score could represent a double
[00:05:11] setback for...
[00:05:14] Upon his arrival at the chancellery 16 months ago, he promised to curb
[00:05:17] the rise of the AFD, a sign that the results of this Sunday
[00:05:21] could have repercussions on his future. Friedrich Merz has
[00:05:25] convened a crisis meeting of the CDU, it will be held just
[00:05:28] after the announcement of the first
[00:05:29] estimates.
[00:05:33] So that's it for the stakes of this election, we will continue with the analysis
[00:05:37] of Antoine Mariotti. Antoine, we just saw in the report by Julien Dubois, so in this
[00:05:40] state of Mecklenburg- Western Pomerania, it's more of a
[00:05:43] duel between the Social Democrats of the SPD and
[00:05:47] the far right, the AFD, we'll come back a little later to the Chancellor's party, but it
[00:05:51] simply risks disappearing. Yes, we are really in a radically
[00:05:55] different situation from that of Berlin, so the other election of the day where the CDU is
[00:05:58] still in the lead or in a position to govern, but neck and neck with the far left this
[00:06:02] time, the radical left of Die Linke, while there very clearly in
[00:06:06] Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, it simply risks disappearing from the
[00:06:10] political scene, which would be a first
[00:06:14] in the recent history of the country because you have to reach
[00:06:17] 5% of the votes to be able to enter parliament and there for
[00:06:21] now according to the polls we are at 6 we are at 7 at most so we are
[00:06:25] really close to this fateful 5%
[00:06:28] barrier and obviously it's extremely problematic, especially since there is a margin
[00:06:32] of error in the polls as we know and there is a desire at the moment for the population to
[00:06:36] punish the current government of Friedrich Merz so there is a
[00:06:39] real possibility that he will no longer be in
[00:06:43] power at all while the AFD, the far right,
[00:06:47] which was largely in the lead and won the elections in
[00:06:50] Saxony 2 weeks ago, is also leading with
[00:06:54] 37% of voting intentions. When I say
[00:06:57] leading, it's still neck
[00:07:01] SPD, so the Social Democrats who are in the
[00:07:04] coalition at the national level with the CDU, but
[00:07:07] there is a real possibility
[00:07:10] that the far right will win, that said, behind
[00:07:14] them, they could not govern alone, so it's not for nothing that they will govern the country and
[00:07:18] that they would have enough votes, but in any case there is an
[00:07:21] extreme difficulty for Friedrich Merz in this
[00:07:25] region, which is a region in the northeast of Germany where
[00:07:29] notably the rise in fuel prices has played a big role in recent
[00:07:33] weeks and months with the consequences of the war
[00:07:36] in Iran, it has been a region where people use their cars a lot, it's not in the
[00:07:40] city center, not at all in Berlin, you see a radically
[00:07:42] different situation and Friedrich Merz tried to launch emergency
[00:07:46] measures on gasoline a few days ago, the far right said but you
[00:07:50] 're joking, the trick is a little too obvious, the German
[00:07:53] Chancellor is more unpopular than ever, you spoke earlier of your sanction, he
[00:07:57] heard voters also express themselves and state their
[00:08:00] decision, their intention to vote, he has been in power for 16 months,
[00:08:04] Friedrich Merz now, what
[00:08:07] else is he blamed for, then beyond other things that have
[00:08:11] been put forward, lack of charisma, who... also has difficulty reaching out to others, but
[00:08:14] it's a protest vote clearly, a vote about his record
[00:08:18] over the last 16 months and how the AFD would do better, 16
[00:08:22] months and not even 16% approval rating
[00:08:25] because only 13% of Germans today say they are
[00:08:29] Friedrich Merz's actions, so
[00:08:32] this German Chancellor who, according to the
[00:08:35] Infratest dimap institute, they are the ones who say
[00:08:39] that 13% of Germans are satisfied, it's the lowest
[00:08:42] rate ever recorded for a sitting Chancellor by this institute, it still shows
[00:08:46] the problem, he hasn't been there for 5, 10 years, there's no power fatigue,
[00:08:50] simply he's blamed on the one hand for going too fast, too far in
[00:08:53] some reforms, on taxation, on
[00:08:57] pensions for example, on health also, even if he was elected on a reform
[00:09:01] program, except that it's a coalition, so he doesn't have completely free rein, within his
[00:09:04] own party, he's sometimes blamed for being a bit too flexible with his
[00:09:08] SPD allies within the coalition,
[00:09:12] some... moreover, do not hesitate to circulate names of
[00:09:15] potential replacements in case Friedrich Merz is forced to resign
[00:09:19] tonight if there was a double failure finally, both losing
[00:09:22] Berlin, which would be a blow, it's the capital, and at the same time
[00:09:30] eastern Germany, Mecklenburg- Western Pomerania, because there it
[00:09:33] would become unlivable, it's a matter of political survival for now, well
[00:09:37] clearly for Friedrich Merz, that doesn't mean the far right would do better, but
[00:09:41] the far right, like the radical left, ultimately often plays on fears,
[00:09:45] we just heard that lady in particular who talks about
[00:09:48] caricatures also sometimes, and while for example the number of
[00:09:51] asylum seekers has never been so low, he is bringing that down for Friedrich
[00:09:55] Merz so, but that is not necessarily credited to him and you have everyday
[00:10:00] prices that I was talking about earlier that he cannot curb, well that
[00:10:04] clearly plays into the daily lives
[00:10:07] of Germans, so it's quite difficult
[00:10:10] for him to get out of it. It's hard to see how he's going to succeed, maybe he will,
[00:10:14] as I told you for now, he intends to continue implementing the reforms,
[00:10:18] he says, agreed with the coalition, in other words, you're very nice but I'm not
[00:10:22] alone and we're all in the same boat, so it's a bit easy to throw me out with the bathwater,
[00:10:26] now will he succeed, everything will depend a lot on these
[00:10:29] two elections, and we'll see what the first trends
[00:10:33] are after the closing of the polling stations, we also know that a meeting will
[00:10:36] be held, absolutely, a meeting also called by the
[00:10:40] Chancellor at the end of this day, thank you very much for participating
[00:10:44] because two weeks ago not many people showed
[00:10:47] in Saxony, thank you very much, thank you Antoine for these elements of
[00:10:51] understanding, we now turn to the situation in the Middle East, the
[00:10:55] Americans say they fear a rapid escalation after the attack on Riyadh
[00:10:58] claimed by the Houthis last night, another missile was then reportedly fired but
[00:11:02] intercepted this time and destroyed if we are to believe the
[00:11:05] statement of a spokesman for the coalition led by Saudi Arabia, the kingdom
[00:11:09] is today in a very complicated situation and without the support
[00:11:12] of the Americans, that's what our guest told us a little earlier,
[00:11:16] journalist and Yemen specialist,
[00:11:19] listen to him. The Saudis are in a very
[00:11:23] difficult position, very difficult because today they are the ones who are
[00:11:26] attacked on their own territory, they do not, as you said,
[00:11:29] have the support of the Americans so they do not want to go it alone either,
[00:11:33] for years the Saudis have been postponing the deadline for a new
[00:11:36] confrontation with the Houthis and as long as they do not have the support of the
[00:11:39] international community, they will not
[00:11:42] fully re-engage militarily as was the case in 2015 and 2015
[00:11:46] was a terrible failure, many bombings that created
[00:11:49] that tarnished the image of the kingdom that killed many civilians and
[00:11:53] in the end they did not win the war so they will not
[00:11:57] they will not go back to a total war and in the meantime this status quo
[00:12:00] benefits the Houthis because we can see that they are advancing
[00:12:04] militarily and they are advancing due to
[00:12:07] forces not only their military forces because the government forces also
[00:12:11] have the means but they are very divided
[00:12:15] Faced with the multiple provocations of the American President and his desire
[00:12:19] to annex territory, Emmanuel Macron recalled a reality from
[00:12:22] the archipelago of Saint Pierre and Miquelon,
[00:12:25] this territory is French, he was reacting, among other things, to a
[00:12:29] map, a false map published by the American president on his network
[00:12:32] on which the archipelago of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon and Canada of Prime Minister Marc
[00:12:36] Carney received instantly by Emmanuel Macron, both appeared
[00:12:40] under the American flag, the two men
[00:12:43] therefore also intend to send a clear message to the American president and show their
[00:12:46] unity, Canada, France, all in all, same
[00:12:49] fight,
[00:12:52] they must also share a lunch.
[00:12:55] in France this time, this mobilization this
[00:12:58] weekend against the adoption of a bill, a
[00:13:01] demonstration against
[00:13:05] la République, elected officials of the La France Insoumise party and activists,
[00:13:09] members of collectives against police violence are
[00:13:12] on site, you can see them on screen, this text, if it is
[00:13:16] adopted, would allow law enforcement to claim self-defense every
[00:13:19] time they use their firearms, I propose you listen to these testimonials
[00:13:23] collected on this...
[00:13:27] the republic, there is a petition that has
[00:13:30] been signed by 73,000 people, knowing that many could not
[00:13:33] sign because it was closed at some point,
[00:13:37] which is an obvious denial of democracy,
[00:13:40] and that there is already
[00:13:43] a lot of police violence for
[00:13:46] years and that this law legitimizes
[00:13:49] it and it's unacceptable, they tell us yes but all police officers are not like
[00:13:52] that, well in fact institutions...
[00:13:55] uh they must be irreproachable, it's not possible for
[00:13:59] police officers to allow the comments we heard in Carcassonne
[00:14:02] or elsewhere, uh to trust this police
[00:14:06] that scares us, a racist
[00:14:08] police that is not uh that is not punished for its racism and
[00:14:12] for its actions, me as a girl I haven't always been
[00:14:16] targeted by this violence but the people around me
[00:14:20] uh we know that the police are very discriminatory, they don't always target
[00:14:24] the right people. and that's what we want today, we want it to change
[00:14:27] and it's very scary even when our little brothers go out in the street we don't know
[00:14:31] if they will come home and it's horrible and it's especially for things that
[00:14:35] don't deserve it and today we see that the police now it's not just in these cases it's also for
[00:14:39] feminists it's also for all women it's it's for everyone so that's why today it's becoming very
[00:14:43] worrying and the fact that not everyone realizes it is still the most
[00:14:46] serious thing, that's it for these comments collected by Valentine
[00:14:49] Herbe, stay with us on France 24 for the rest of the
[00:14:52] world tour.
[00:15:08] Now it's time for your weekly magazine, it's Outrem,
[00:15:11] watch,
[00:15:15] France 24 and La Première
[00:15:18] present, hello and welcome to
[00:15:21] Outremer l'hebdo, an edition dedicated to the news
[00:15:25] of French overseas territories around the world, headlining this
[00:15:29] week, the effects of the El Niño phenomenon are being
[00:15:31] felt as far as the Antilles with abnormally high
[00:15:35] temperatures in Martinique and new episodes of intense heat in
[00:15:39] perspective, see you soon,
[00:15:57] but first these images of the Guyanese sky and this new
[00:16:00] success for the Vega C launcher, the rocket
[00:16:03] took off from the Kourou space center on the night of September
[00:16:07] 14th to 15th with two European observation
[00:16:11] satellites on board, their mission, to better detect
[00:16:14] episodes linked to climate change and monitor the
[00:16:17] health of plants. It's
[00:16:20] one of the solutions to get rid of the sargassum that
[00:16:24] is invading the beaches of the Caribbean. In Guadeloupe, the
[00:16:27] future Sargator 4 ship will soon be operational,
[00:16:31] designed on site, it should improve the collection capacities
[00:16:34] of these toxic brown algae. We will see that with Jean-Michel
[00:16:37] Mazrol and our teams on site.
[00:16:41] Already the first pieces of the future Sargator, this special boat
[00:16:45] designed to recover sargassum algae that pollute the coasts
[00:16:49] of the Antilles at sea. Barely signed the contract, this Guadeloupean company is
[00:16:52] already at work. It has 5 months for its version 4 of this
[00:16:56] revolutionary ship to be operational. This is the first
[00:17:00] cut piece of the Sargator 4 in the STMI workshops
[00:17:03] of which we are quite proud here because it is a boat for
[00:17:07] Guadeloupe. The Sargator 4 will represent approximately 25,000
[00:17:10] pieces that we will cut, that we will bend, that we will assemble by welding of course
[00:17:13] uh so 25,000 pieces is huge.
[00:17:17] The particularity of the Sargator 4, unlike previous
[00:17:20] versions, is that it packages the harvested algae in big
[00:17:24] bags that are placed in the sea and towed by
[00:17:27] boat to increase the harvest. Today we have
[00:17:31] found the solution to eject the big bags and now we
[00:17:35] fill 2 tons in one minute 30, one minute
[00:17:38] 40 and have modified the size of the big bags since we have
[00:17:42] moved to 2 cubic meters per big bag whereas previously we were at 1
[00:17:45] cubic meter per in one minute 30 we load 10 cubic meters
[00:17:49] so 10 cubic meters we do the ratio it's 2 tons the
[00:17:52] Sargator 4 is to be deployed on the island of Désirade from
[00:17:56] February 2027 another good news for Guadeloupe Mexico
[00:17:59] and Antigua are also preparing to place
[00:18:02] orders. It has been flooding Polynesia
[00:18:05] for about ten years. and several seizures of
[00:18:09] methamphetamine this week at Taitifaa airport, 600
[00:18:11] g of ice discovered on a
[00:18:15] couple and in a baby's diapers, and an American
[00:18:19] national also received 7 years in prison, he
[00:18:22] was transporting more than 4 kg of
[00:18:24] drugs. Heading to Martinique, now
[00:18:28] Martinique is experiencing a new heatwave,
[00:18:32] record temperatures recorded in recent weeks, due
[00:18:35] in particular to the El Niño phenomenon, particularly intense this
[00:18:39] year, explanations signed by Aurélien Fevrier and
[00:18:42] Thierry.
[00:18:45] The heat, at the Dillon market, everyone has felt it
[00:18:48] since the beginning of the school
[00:18:50] holidays.
[00:18:54] It's hot, it's hot, I don't know. It was a bit hotter,
[00:18:57] the heat was more intense than in previous years.
[00:19:01] And what do you want, these are the vagaries of life. And it's nature
[00:19:04] that wants it. As the climate changes, so we must adapt,
[00:19:08] huh, so well but
[00:19:11] especially if it's hot in July
[00:19:14] August, Météo France recorded averages one degree higher than the seasonal
[00:19:18] norm, never seen before during this period in Martinique. up
[00:19:22] until now we've experienced quite significant heat periods, but
[00:19:25] the one we've just experienced puts us at the top compared to
[00:19:30] beginning of measurements in 1953, even though we had
[00:19:33] already experienced previous heat periods in previous years.
[00:19:37] 2022, 2023, so 1 degree is the highest we have
[00:19:40] ever seen in terms of deviation, mainly due to a
[00:19:44] much more severe El Niño phenomenon in the Pacific this
[00:19:47] year than in previous years.
[00:19:50] Today we are at + 2 degrees compared to the normal level
[00:19:53] of the Pacific Ocean and the models show
[00:19:57] almost certainly that it will rise to over 3
[00:20:01] or 3.5 degrees at the end of the
[00:20:03] year, that is, it's something that
[00:20:07] we haven't seen since the beginning of measurements since
[00:20:10] 1950, this situation should continue in the coming
[00:20:13] months with a rain deficit more marked than usual and a
[00:20:17] karma 2027 announced even drier.
[00:20:19] I will take you now to New
[00:20:23] Caledonia where the squash harvest is in full
[00:20:26] swing, a vegetable introduced in the 90s and
[00:20:29] today primarily intended for the Japanese market, this is the
[00:20:33] weekly feature, prepared by Matthieu and David Sigal.
[00:20:41] It grows peacefully along the waterways of the west coast, the
[00:20:44] Cucurbita Maxima, better known as
[00:20:48] Squash, a Japanese cousin of the pumpkin, introduced
[00:20:51] more than 30 years ago, nearly 25 farmers grow it, in
[00:20:55] Bourail notably, in Droubonne, we have been harvesting for more than 20 years,
[00:20:59] our climate is well adapted,
[00:21:02] despite the fact that it is a little variable at the moment,
[00:21:06] for the cultivation of squash, especially at this
[00:21:09] time of year. Squash grows well, it especially helps relieve pressure
[00:21:13] on local production with an export industry. Today,
[00:21:16] indeed, with the since the riots. these
[00:21:20] problems have been amplified, there are a lot of problems
[00:21:23] with sales on the local
[00:21:26] market at the moment, falling purchasing power,
[00:21:29] unemployment, etc., etc., departures and
[00:21:32] so how does that allow farmers
[00:21:36] to produce something, a
[00:21:39] speculation that goes to export and that is
[00:21:42] not that they have no problem selling
[00:21:47] journey continues with the company France. The Denis Tropic
[00:21:50] Export, the FCTE manages nearly 3000 tons of squash per
[00:21:54] year, almost all of which will end up in tempura in Japan,
[00:21:58] but a part remains here, we should be around
[00:22:02] 10 or 15 tons for approximately 2000 or
[00:22:05] 2500 tons exported to Japan, Korea, New Zealand. The
[00:22:09] difference between a squash that we find on the local market and a squash that we find
[00:22:12] on the export market will only be
[00:22:15] some aesthetic defects that we can find on the Caledonian market while on
[00:22:19] the market. for export, there will be no such aesthetic defects, but it will have the same taste and quality.
[00:22:23] a sector closely controlled by the
[00:22:26] Japanese standards are high between traceability and
[00:22:29] quality.
[00:22:33] Well, often for the local one, there are fruits that are a little bit, he
[00:22:37] said a little bit of dry rot like during transport, but long
[00:22:40] enough to arrive in Japan, in fact, it's
[00:22:43] simply for finally
[00:22:46] how
[00:22:48] to say consumption is quite fast locally. Squash,
[00:22:52] a promising sector in New Caledonia but very dependent on climate
[00:22:56] hazards. In 2022, only about twenty tons could be
[00:22:59] harvested due to floods. It's
[00:23:03] a job specific to the whale season, cetaceans
[00:23:06] are reproducing and calving at the moment in the warm waters of
[00:23:10] Polynesia. So to protect them from
[00:23:13] potential collisions with boats. Observers monitor the
[00:23:17] crossing between Tahiti and Moorea. Embark with
[00:23:20] Caline Liennard and Mirco Vanfo,
[00:23:24] whale in sight near the reef at the entrance to the Pap Pass,
[00:23:28] Reytina spotted it more than 3 km away throughout the
[00:23:32] observation is at its maximum to identify the
[00:23:36] sign. The main sign to detect a
[00:23:39] whale is its blow because it can reach 2 m so it is clearly
[00:23:43] visible, or else we can have the
[00:23:46] jump, these are behaviors so that
[00:23:49] generates splashes. and we can see the different parts of the
[00:23:52] body, the caudal, the pectoral, assess
[00:23:56] the distance with the boat, this is the most important information
[00:24:00] that Reitina must transmit to the captain so that he can anticipate the avoidance
[00:24:04] maneuver, needs to know
[00:24:07] the distance between the whale and the
[00:24:10] boat, but especially to know its
[00:24:13] direction, where it is going, so as
[00:24:16] to be able to either change course or slow down.
[00:24:20] boat, 99% of maritime
[00:24:23] traffic is concentrated on the Tahiti-Moorea axis, collisions
[00:24:27] are the primary cause of non-natural mortality in whales, dolphins
[00:24:31] do not have this problem, among cetaceans we will have two main families,
[00:24:35] mysticetes, so all whales with baleen and odontocetes with
[00:24:39] teeth, so all those with teeth, they will
[00:24:42] echolocate so they can reposition an object in space,
[00:24:45] unlike whales who do not have this ability and therefore they
[00:24:49] will... be much more susceptible to collisions, during the whale
[00:24:52] season, there is an average of one anti-collision maneuver per
[00:24:56] day, so many dramatic situations avoided, near
[00:25:00] the passes and the reef, these are the resting
[00:25:03] sanctuaries of humpback
[00:27:07] news, an edition to find on France 24.com and
[00:27:11] lapremiere.fr, thank you for following us, have a very good day, a

[00:30:07] Around the world with a new newspaper whose headlines are as follows: Russia and
[00:30:11] Ukraine continue to trade blows, last night was deadly on
[00:30:15] both sides, two people were killed in the Moscow region, in the
[00:30:18] outskirts of Kyiv, there are at least four dead including three
[00:30:21] children.
[00:30:24] We continue to follow this vote still underway in Germany this Sunday,
[00:30:28] legislative elections in two states, that of Berlin and that of
[00:30:31] Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, a risky election
[00:30:34] for Chancellor Scholz, more unpopular than
[00:30:38] ever. Antoine Mariotti will tell us why in a
[00:30:41] moment. Hello to you, see you
[00:30:43] soon.
[00:30:46] And regarding the Middle East, Washington says it fears a rapid escalation
[00:30:50] after the attack carried out by the Houthis yesterday on Riyadh, a fuel depot was
[00:30:54] hit, another missile was then intercepted and
[00:30:57] destroyed according to Saudi Arabia.
