00:00:14attacks carried out against Yemeni soldiers, with
00:00:1758 dead, the rebels denounce Saudi Arabia's increased support
00:00:20for government

00:00:25Two dead and 14 injured near Damascus, a bomb exploded in a
00:00:29bus in a town near the Syrian
00:00:31capital,
00:00:34and then we will go to Cuba where the energy blockade, as well as
00:00:38the sanctions imposed by the United States, are suffocating it, lacking
00:00:41gasoline, electricity, which will worsen already precarious living
00:00:45conditions, as you will see.

00:01:20after several attacks in the Red Sea against Saudi oil tankers, the
00:01:24Houthis are striking this time on firm ground, a direct response
00:01:27according to them to the increased support from Saudi Arabia
00:01:30for Yemeni government forces
00:01:33break the cycle of for several
00:01:33weeks.
00:01:39This operation allowed us to kill and injure many Saudi
00:01:42mercenaries, to destroy and burn a large number of Saudi
00:01:45camps and arms depots in the east of the
00:01:48country,
00:01:50as well as to destroy a large number of military vehicles stationed in
00:01:54the targeted
00:01:55camps.
00:01:59According to an anonymous military source, Houthi drones and missiles struck
00:02:03several military camps in the province of Marib in the center of the country
00:02:06and that of Hadhramaut near the border with Saudi Arabia.
00:02:10This is the deadliest toll since 2022 between the two
00:02:13camps. Since 2014, a proxy war has been taking place in Yemen between the
00:02:17Houthi rebels allied with Iran and the Yemeni government supported by
00:02:21Riyadh and Washington. In 2022, a fragile truce came
00:02:25into force, but it fell apart last month when the Houthis
00:02:29welcomed a plane.
00:03:00The Yemeni government, recognized by the international community, has
00:03:04never been recognized as the owner of announced that it will respond at the
00:03:05his life today to these victims of appropriate time and place.
00:03:09The initial report indicates two dead
00:03:11again, and it is we, the Cubans on and 14 injured, a bomb exploded in Jaramana, southeast of
00:03:14Damascus, the Syrian capital, the device
00:03:17was placed in a public transport minibus, France 24 correspondent
00:03:21Dana Alboze.
00:03:25According to our latest report released by the Syrian Ministry of
00:03:28Health, two people... have died and 14 others have been
00:03:32injured in an explosion that occurred this evening in Jaramana in the
00:03:36southeast suburb of Damascus, the explosion occurred
00:03:40in the middle of Jaramana's main
00:03:43going to law enforcement thoroughfare, it is a very busy road, it targeted a small passenger transport shuttle
00:03:46which was completely destroyed according to our
00:03:50new album Boulevard de information. The injured were evacuated to
00:03:53two hospitals in Damascus and Jaramana, and according to a local
00:03:57source, the majority of the injuries would be minor, but these
00:04:00informations remain preliminary and the toll could
00:04:03worsen, the authorities have established a security perimeter
00:04:07around the area and there was
00:04:10concern among the residents
00:04:12denounce the increased support of of Jaramana, Jaramana is located only a few kilometers
00:04:16southeast of Damascus, the city also hosts
00:04:19a significant Druze population, but also residents
00:04:22from different communities. At this stage,
00:04:26no party has officially claimed this
00:04:29attack, the... the authorities have not communicated on the exact
00:04:32nature of this explosion either, but of course, this
00:04:35incident comes as Syria has experienced several explosions in
00:04:39Damascus and in its surroundings in recent
00:04:43months and even recent weeks, I recall that in early
00:04:47July during the visit of French President Emmanuel Macron
00:04:50two explosions occurred in Damascus, in
00:04:54these different cases explosive devices had
00:04:57been mentioned and this new explosion occurs
00:05:00in a context, I can say,
00:05:03the very idea of of security challenges for the new Syrian authorities,
00:05:06Syrian authorities who must particularly face the persistence of attacks
00:05:10and security incidents. targeting urban
00:05:13areas. This new offensive against birthright
00:05:17citizenship in the United States, this decree that Donald Trump has just signed,
00:05:21a text that aims to prevent birth tourism, meaning
00:05:25this possibility for foreign women
00:05:28to give birth in the United States so that their children obtain American
00:05:31citizenship. A new attempt for the American
00:05:34president, to whom at the beginning of July the Supreme Court had reminded
00:05:37that being born on American soil allowed
00:05:41one to become American, even if the
00:05:44parents were in an irregular situation, it had then
00:05:48annulled the presidential decree on citizenship by
00:05:52birthright. birth.
00:05:55We remain in the United States with what could pave the way for legal
00:05:58prosecution, a commission of the American Senate with a Republican
00:06:03Fauci guilty of contempt of Congress, accused of obstructing an
00:06:07investigation, he who had organized the White
00:06:10House's response during the COVID-19 pandemic and who had
00:06:14then repeatedly contradicted Donald Trump when he was
00:06:18president.
00:06:18president.
00:06:22The United States, which announced this Thursday new sanctions against
00:06:25Cuba, they specifically target the Minister of the
00:06:28Armed Forces and an arms supply network.
00:06:31Washington accuses Havana of procuring weapons from countries
00:06:34considered enemies of the Americans and this pressure
00:06:38exerted by the Trump administration is putting the communist
00:06:41island in great financial difficulties, which will worsen
00:06:45already difficult economic conditions and amplify the glaring
00:06:48shortages of electricity and gasoline, France 24
00:06:51report
00:06:54I do braids, my child, you don't want braids
00:06:57braids How are you,
00:07:00family?
00:07:02Tania is a teacher, like many Cubans, she has another
00:07:06job to live decently, offering braids to
00:07:10passers-by. 50 years old and I face
00:07:13life, I will not lose the strength to continue to
00:07:17fight, times are harder than ever on the
00:07:21communist island,
00:07:23there is no more tourism, everything is empty, no
00:07:27customers, no one left to style,
00:07:30look at this empty hotel, not a single customer coming out, it
00:07:34hurts, in January Washington tightened its
00:07:37energy blockade, followed by new sanctions against companies
00:07:41operating in Cuba. Since then, the terraces of Havana have
00:07:44emptied of their customers, the fall in
00:07:47tourism, one of the country's main sources of income, is affecting the entire
00:07:51economy, the country is
00:07:55unrecognizable and the hotel does not earn enough
00:07:58money to pay the
00:08:00artists,
00:08:04it is the entire island that is suffocating, in the markets, local products
00:08:08are not lacking, but due to lack of gasoline, the cost of their transport
00:08:11increases. Prices are rising against a background of already
00:08:14chronic inflation, it is a form of survival, let's say
00:08:18it like that, what is imposed on Cuba every day, these are trials again and
00:08:23the street, who pay for them.
00:08:27Without electricity, without sufficient foreign currency, all
00:08:30institutions, like banks, are operating
00:08:33slowly.
00:08:36I am waiting to get my salary, people are annoyed, they
00:08:39scream, I don't even have money to buy food.
00:08:44Several days of waiting at the bank to collect a salary or a
00:08:47pension, tempers are flaring, Cubans are
00:08:51tired,
00:08:53civil servants like Tania, the teacher who braids hair in the
00:08:57center, earn a ridiculous
00:08:58income,
00:09:01I earn 6 dollars a month and that is really not enough, I have to
00:09:05buy everything, clothes, shoes, and if I think about shoes for the
00:09:08children, I can forget food,
00:09:12lack of electricity worsens already precarious living
00:09:15conditions, only one hour of electricity per day, often
00:09:18less, there is nothing inside, if there was something it would have already
00:09:22rotted with all these hours without electricity, what we buy, it's
00:09:26day by day. Despite a recent opening, Cuba
00:09:30seems frozen in time, residents resell what they
00:09:33can and in the private businesses now authorized, basic
00:09:37products are a luxury. This is a
00:09:40butcher shop where people do their shopping, a butcher shop.
00:09:48Suddenly a woman intervenes, you
00:09:51need authorization to do that, the Committees for the
00:09:54Defense of the Revolution are still there, but they are less active,
00:09:58worn out by the crisis, Tania, she has nothing to
00:10:01reproach herself for,
00:10:04I love my island, I am a revolutionary, and even if I have nothing
00:10:08to eat, I love our commander Fidel Castro, when he
00:10:11died, I cried,
00:10:15between political pressure and economic collapse, Cubans
00:10:18survive day by day, without seeing the end of the
00:10:22road,
00:10:25we will meet again in about twenty minutes for the essential, see you soon,
00:10:42this morning, the maritime rescue ship is saturated from bow to
00:10:45stern, it's an anniversary that no one will celebrate and
00:10:49especially not in Senegal, it was 20 years ago the
00:10:53migratory crisis of 2006.
00:10:56At the time, hundreds of clandestine canoes attempted the crossing
00:10:59from the Senegalese coast to the Canary Islands with the
00:11:03terrible slogan Barça ou Barçax,
00:11:06Barcelona or death, a slogan that became a reality for thousands
00:11:10of missing people
00:11:13the exodus. 20 years later, the crisis is far from resolved,
00:11:17quite the contrary, 2024 holds the sad record for the largest
00:11:20number of deaths on the Atlantic route, more than 1000
00:11:24deaths. A figure that even surpasses that of
00:11:272006, and for the majority of these victims, the
00:11:30tragedy is anonymous, due to lack of means and real political
00:11:33will, the shipwrecked are almost never
00:11:36identified. Even for the bodies found in Senegal,
00:11:40buried hastily in mass graves and leaving behind
00:11:43thousands of families unable to mourn.
00:11:46But faced with this silence, voices are rising,
00:11:49associations and relatives are mobilizing on the ground or on social
00:11:53networks. to give a name to the dead and
00:11:58exile. Back in Senegal, the shadow of the
00:12:01missing migrants. This is a report by Sara Saco and
00:12:05Simon Martin.
00:12:16All of us, we had friends, or acquaintances who were lost at
00:12:20sea,
00:12:24there is no... there is no boat, there is no
00:12:27information to really identify that there was a shipwreck, these are boats that are
00:12:31missing, you see, imaginarily like that, what we call the
00:12:35invisible shipwrecks.
00:12:38In 2006, Salio Diouf lived
00:12:41here in Yarar, a coastal suburb of Dakar, which became
00:12:45one of the main departure points for the migratory crisis. Lacking
00:12:49money, he had not been able to attempt this risky crossing, which he
00:12:53nevertheless dreamed of, like a large part of
00:12:55the youth 20 years and thousands of deaths
00:12:59later, the former aspiring migrant sees history repeating
00:13:02itself in Senegal, today we are
00:13:05mourning, these same disappeared because it's a
00:13:08phenomenon, you see, that has never been eradicated until today, you
00:13:12see, we can only count figures but not people
00:13:16and there is no return, no initiative from our authorities to seek
00:13:20means, at least when there were shipwrecks, to identify the
00:13:23people who died. Since then, Salou has become a humanitarian
00:13:26worker, dedicating
00:13:30migration, who, for 20 years, have been the
00:13:34great forgotten ones of the national narrative and successive
00:13:37policies. The feelings I had in
00:13:412006 are not the same feelings I have today. 2006, it was
00:13:44sadness, we lose our children, we lose our brothers, we lose our friends, but
00:13:48today, there is a real feeling of anger towards, you
00:13:52see, our authorities who neglect the... this
00:13:55subject, a wound still fresh in Senegalese
00:13:58society, which Salou has made his battle
00:14:01horse, salam
00:14:03aler,
00:14:06with his association, the activist created a caravan
00:14:09of remembrance, a form of memorial convoy, the
00:14:134th edition is about to hit the road, we
00:14:16will go to certain parts of the country to discuss with the
00:14:20families of the victims of migration on questions of how to conduct
00:14:24research. They are about thirty members, activists,
00:14:28artists or former migrants, who travel the country,
00:14:31their weapons for this journey, some speakers and
00:14:34posters to show the reality of the migratory
00:14:37drama. These are messages that we have printed
00:14:41here to, you know, uh,
00:14:43euh
00:14:47document, like this banner, several
00:14:51tens of meters long, listing cases of deaths at sea
00:14:55over the last few years, you see, 'man'
00:14:59means it's a great person, you see,
00:15:01inclusive,
00:15:05in total 66,000 disappeared of different
00:15:09nationalities, among them thousands of
00:15:11Senegalese, faced with the shortcomings of the census,
00:15:15it's difficult to give a precise number according to Salieu, we are an
00:15:19organization that is against numbers, because we can't count
00:15:23people, we, we say that these are not human beings, that's
00:15:28the caravan's initiative to give, to promote the right to
00:15:32identity for these people who
00:15:34disappear, but also the family's right to know.
00:15:38For 10 days, Salou and his team will crisscross the country in
00:15:42search of the relatives of those who disappeared in 2006, as
00:15:46today, a struggle to unite these families,
00:15:50forgotten victims of migration, neglected for 20
00:15:53years.
00:15:57In 2006, a slogan emerged: Barça or Barçax,
00:16:01literally, Barcelona or death, a motto that did not
00:16:04take into account... "I told him that to go to Spain
00:16:42he had to take a plane,
00:16:44but he didn't have the money,
00:16:47he told me he would take
00:16:51the pirogue, I told
00:16:55him I wouldn't allow it, I did everything to prevent
00:16:58him."
00:17:08Since that day, she has never heard from her
00:17:12son again, and no one knows what happened to his
00:17:15boat, impossible griefs that
00:17:19gnaw at thousands of families in Senegal, because for lack of
00:17:23evidence and bodies, some refuse
00:17:25the inevitable and set out to find traces of their
00:17:29loved ones.
00:17:34Mustapha is the founder of the Facebook page "Lost"
00:17:37which today has over 200,000 members, with
00:17:4113 other volunteers, he takes turns filtering the hundreds of
00:17:45publications and responding to their authors, you see, so all these
00:17:48are messages that we must process
00:17:51today, approximately 1500 disappearances are
00:17:54reported each year on the group, half of which are linked to
00:17:58migration, cases rarely resolved due to
00:18:01shipwrecks, but not only, when a
00:18:04person is at sea for several days, for
00:18:07example, it turns out that their supplies are gone, not even
00:18:11water to drink, so they can easily lose their mind, there are
00:18:15people who think their child died at sea when in fact the child
00:18:19arrived but lost their mind, they can't remember that I lived here, this is my
00:18:23name, my father's name, my mother's name and so on, these are cases
00:18:26we have also encountered, then only
00:18:29unanswered publications remain, digital
00:18:32traces of these silent
00:18:33dramas,
00:18:36these people left Barney on October 31, 2023
00:18:40aboard a pirogue with 173 people.
00:18:43Please contact their sisters if you have seen them
00:18:46anywhere. This is my brother, his name is
00:18:50Alénias. In February 2006, he took a pirogue from
00:18:53Tiaroy to Spain. If you have any information,
00:18:56help us.
00:19:02We find the caravan of remembrance, just arrived in
00:19:05Socon, in the west of the country. Their third destination this
00:19:09year, as at each stop, Salou and his team
00:19:12will have to break a taboo. The important thing is that families
00:19:16must dare to talk about it to at least, you know, start
00:19:20a fight that will probably resolve certain issues, because as we say,
00:19:24we can't do the fundraising for them, we can just
00:19:27accompany them, and for that, we must first
00:19:30find them. For lack of registers and in the face of the
00:19:34silence in which many are walled, the association.
00:19:51Throughout the day, activists multiply their meetings
00:19:54from one end of the city to the other, a search, but also an
00:19:58educational work to raise awareness among these community
00:20:01leaders. The caravan did it, we went, we found a
00:20:05family of 13 people. Senegal
00:20:08it is important that for example today we create something
00:20:11that will talk about this water, it is very important
00:20:14it is very important what they taught me today
00:20:18and it is us who are on the ground
00:20:22we will be able to talk about it and transmit the
00:20:24message
00:20:30after several hours of searching Salou and his team finally
00:20:34go back to a first family okay
00:20:38Mohamed's cousin took a pirogue in secret 8
00:20:41months ago. After 8 days without news, another member
00:20:45of his family who was on the same pirogue, told him the
00:20:48tragedy.
00:20:51"It was a pirogue that carried 148
00:20:54people, you must have heard about it, he got on
00:20:58it, but in the pirogue it was too hot, so he got on
00:21:01the side to get some air, and at that moment, a wave made him fall into the
00:21:05sea, he also explained to me, people who die of
00:21:08hunger or other things, their bodies are also thrown into the
00:21:12sea, a valuable
00:21:16testimony recorded by the members of the association to cross-reference..."
00:21:20information and perhaps provide answers to other
00:21:24families.
00:21:28In 4 years of caravanning, the group conducted similar investigations
00:21:32across the country, sometimes with unexpected results.
00:21:36We discovered a mass grave in Cafoontine,
00:21:39I think it's good now when we discover a mass
00:21:42grave to ask questions about how people are
00:21:46managed. disappear in Senegal,
00:21:50to get to the site, you must
00:21:54first go deep into the Bolongs, these arms of the sea
00:21:57surrounded by mangroves and forest, places difficult
00:22:01to access, known departure zones for the route to the
00:22:05Canaries, it was in 2022 that we
00:22:07found a pirogue in the Casselle Bolong that had caught
00:22:11fire, we found the dead, that
00:22:14day, under the gaze of the authorities who remained in
00:22:18Kay, Thas and other fishermen left
00:22:20urgently to look for the bodies. They found
00:22:2315, even if they were probably many more,
00:22:26according to the rare survivors. Anonymous people summarily buried
00:22:30in this forest near the site of the shipwreck. Yes, the stake
00:22:34there, that's where we buried the people who
00:22:37died, we should enclose it with a wall
00:22:41maybe. Well, we don't have the means, that's why we put the stakes
00:22:45there. Four pieces of wood that mark their only grave.
00:22:48grave.
00:23:515 years since she remarried, she has
00:23:54the house he left her, for lack of precise
00:23:57documents. If I don't change the papers to my name,
00:24:01I can be evicted at any time, and in that case, where would I go with my
00:24:04children? It's so that there are no problems and to protect them that I
00:24:08am here. With the help of the Red Cross,
00:24:12Ami is trying to obtain a death certificate, a process
00:24:15that still largely intimidates
00:24:18families. refuse to testify,
00:24:21these are problems of custom, perhaps ignorance
00:24:24and, I don't know, of reservations from
00:24:28the populations regarding this, because we are not used to often
00:24:33or the law to express ourselves, some
00:24:37imagine being an accomplice of a crime and fear retaliation from
00:24:41justice, unjustified fears reassure the
00:24:44magistrates, the court is willing to
00:24:47assist them so that precisely... uh that all
00:24:51questions related, in any case, legal questions are
00:24:54handled uh in the best possible way, but
00:24:58uh the Court awaits to be seized to be
00:25:00able to rule on these questions, the court
00:25:04does not have the power to refer itself.
00:25:08Today, few families have yet taken the
00:25:10step, throughout the country, only one
00:25:14woman has so far managed to obtain a death certificate for her
00:25:18husband, enough to...
00:25:54Associations and activists know, these absent ones
00:25:58have not finished haunting the country, we don't bury
00:26:01them because they are not there, but at least we can
00:26:05say the prayer we say for all our missing, for all our dead, it is a last way
00:26:08to restore
00:26:10dignity,
00:26:14a wound that continues to perpetuate itself, in
00:26:182024, 10,000 men, women and
00:26:21children have again disappeared on the Atlantic
00:26:24route.
00:27:05Join us from all over Europe, in France, the worst
00:27:09student of the European club when it comes to transforming European
00:27:12subsidies into growth and we will
00:27:15see this in two regions particularly in difficulty,
00:27:19Corsica due to its insularity with its
00:27:2236,000 inhabitants who nevertheless have many
00:27:25projects in terms of research on clementines,
00:27:28sea urchins and many other sectors and
00:27:31here in Creuse, a rural French department that is
00:27:35depopulating, European aid is highly anticipated to boost
00:27:39growth and employment, it is particularly
00:27:42directed towards the timber industry or
00:27:45tourism and culture with here the Valley of the
00:27:49Painters or the beautiful Aubusson tapestry.
00:27:53all over Europe, presented by Caroline de
00:27:55Camaret, to be seen on France
00:27:5824.
00:30:03welcome to those who join us, the Yemeni government threatens
00:30:07retaliatory tools after the attacks carried out against Yemeni
00:30:10soldiers, there were 58 dead, the rebels
00:30:15Saudi Arabia for government
00:30:16forces,
00:30:19two dead and 14 injured near Damascus, a bomb exploded in a
00:30:23bus in a city near the Syrian capital,
00:30:25syrienne,
00:30:29and then we will go to Cuba where the energy blockade, just like the
00:30:32sanctions imposed by the United States, are suffocating it,
00:30:36lack of gasoline, electricity, which will worsen already precarious
00:30:39living conditions, as you will see,
00:30:56at least.
