00:00:00News,
00:00:04we meet again for a new update on the news, headlining this newspaper,
00:00:07the escalation in Yemen, the Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack which
00:00:10left at least 58 dead among the governmental forces supported by
00:00:14Riyadh, this is the deadliest attack since the truce of
00:00:172022. In Syria, a bomb in a bus near
00:00:20Damascus kills two in the evening, the attack took place in
00:00:24Jaramana, a city with a Druze majority, no
00:00:27claim has been made for the moment. And
00:00:31then Janny Infantino, more isolated than ever, despite the
00:00:34withdrawal of his project to open up to private funds, the pressure
00:00:38is tightening, UEFA maintains its boycott of the World Cups and
00:00:42the South American football confederation is now distancing itself.
00:00:58At least 58 soldiers killed in Yemen, the Houthis
00:01:02claim responsibility for attacks against Yemeni governmental forces supported by Saudi
00:01:06Arabia, this is the deadliest toll since the truce of
00:01:092022, the day before, the Houthis had attacked a
00:01:12second oil tanker in the Red Sea, details from Loik
00:01:15Chalavon.
00:01:19After several attacks in the Red Sea against Saudi oil tankers, the
00:01:22Houthis are striking this time on dry land, a direct response
00:01:25according to them, to the increased support from Saudi Arabia to...
00:01:30Yemeni governmental forces for several
00:01:32weeks.
00:01:37This operation allowed us to kill and injure many Saudi
00:01:40mercenaries, to destroy and burn a large number of camps and
00:01:43weapons depots of the Saudi enemy in the east of the
00:01:46country,
00:01:49as well as to destroy a large number of military vehicles stationed in the
00:01:53targeted
00:01:53camps.
00:01:57According to an anonymous military source, the Houthi drones and missiles struck
00:02:01several military camps in the province of Marib in the center of the
00:02:04country and that of Hadhramaut near the border with Saudi
00:02:07Arabia. This is the deadliest toll since 2022 between the two
00:02:11camps. The Yemeni government announced that it would retaliate at the right
00:02:15time and place. Since 2014, a proxy war
00:02:19has been taking place in Yemen between the Houthi rebels, allies of Iran, and the Yemeni
00:02:22government supported by Riyadh and Washington. In
00:02:252022, a fragile truce came into effect, but it broke
00:02:29down last month when the Houthis welcomed an Iranian plane in
00:02:33Sanaa, violating Saudi control over Yemeni
00:02:36airspace. The
00:02:39allowed to temporarily leave the Houthis then announced a maritime blockade of Saudi ports and began targeting the kingdom's
00:02:43oil tankers.
00:02:46We warn the Saudi enemy against any reckless action
00:02:49against our country and our people. They will have to bear the
00:02:53consequences of any
00:02:54escalation.
00:02:57According to a senior Saudi official, several intelligence services say that
00:03:01Iraqi Shiite militias are preparing attacks on Saudi territory in
00:03:05coordination with the Yemeni Houthis and under the direction of the
00:03:08Iranian Revolutionary Guards. Saudi Arabia says it will take
00:03:12the necessary measures to respond to any
00:03:14aggression.
00:03:16And a few hours ago, another attack by the Houthi rebels was
00:03:19perpetrated on Saudi soil this time in the Najran
00:03:23region near the border with Yemen, 11 civilians were
00:03:26injured, the deterioration of the situation in the Middle
00:03:30East is pushing Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey to
00:03:34accelerate their defense agreement, the heads of state of the three countries are due to meet
00:03:37today in Jeddah to sign it at a summit, the
00:03:41discussions had already begun, the worsening tensions have
00:03:45prompted the three countries to finalize it more
00:03:48to express her gratitude to the hospital quickly. In Syria, a bomb in a bus near
00:03:52Damascus killed two in the evening. The attack occurred in
00:03:56Jaramana, a city that is predominantly Druze and which had
00:04:00already been the scene of violent clashes last year, details from
00:04:03Dana Alboze, our correspondent in
00:04:05Damascus.
00:04:08According to our latest report communicated by the Syrian Ministry of
00:04:12Health, two people have died and 14 others were
00:04:15injured in an explosion that occurred this evening in Jaramana in the
00:04:19southeastern suburbs of Damascus. The explosion occurred in the
00:04:23middle of the main thoroughfare of Jaramana, it's a very busy
00:04:27road, it targeted a small passenger
00:04:30shuttle which was completely destroyed according
00:04:33to our information. The
00:04:36effect. The member federations of injured were evacuated to two hospitals in Damascus and
00:04:38Jaramana and according to a local source, most of the
00:04:41injuries are said to be minor, but this information remains
00:04:45preliminary and the death toll could rise. The
00:04:50to imagine a future off authorities have established a security perimeter around the area and there was
00:04:53concern among the residents of Jaramana. Jaramana is
00:04:57only a few kilometers southeast of Damascus, the
00:05:01city also harbors a large Druze
00:05:04population, but also residents from different communities.
00:05:08At this stage, no party has officially
00:05:11claimed this attack, the authorities have also not
00:05:15communicated on the exact nature of this
00:05:17explosion, but of course this incident comes as Syria
00:05:21has experienced several explosions in Damascus and in
00:05:25its surroundings in recent months and even in recent
00:05:29weeks, I remind you that in early July during the visit of French
00:05:32President Emmanuel Macron, two explosions occurred in
00:05:36Damascus, in these different cases explosive devices
00:05:40had been mentioned and this new explosion
00:05:43occurs in a context, I would say, of security
00:05:46challenges for the new Syrian authorities,
00:05:49who must notably deal with the persistence of attacks
00:05:53and security incidents targeting urban
00:05:57areas. Also in the news, fires
00:06:00in France with more than 13,500 fires or fire
00:06:04starts and more than 100,000 hectares burned, this year
00:06:082026 breaks the sad record of burned area most of the
00:06:12time due to these fires of human origin, sometimes it
00:06:15is a poorly extinguished cigarette butt thrown out of the car
00:06:18window. Today, the MP and former Minister of Health
00:06:22Yannick Neuder believes that tobacco
00:06:25manufacturers should pay.
00:06:29A simple gesture, but far from
00:06:31trivial, a cigarette butt can cause
00:06:35a fire and devastate hundreds of hectares
00:06:39in a few hours. Hello sir, where are you from? If one
00:06:43in 5 smokers admits to throwing his butt out the window, this
00:06:46summer, the authorities have increased surveillance
00:06:50operations. We come from a region where it burns so
00:06:53it's good to raise awareness among people anyway because
00:06:56right now we're not laughing, it only takes one cigarette butt
00:07:00in fact and it's perhaps not the number that makes the danger, it's the act of doing it and
00:07:04we must continue to raise awareness among people. So
00:07:07should cigarettes be taxed again? This is what
00:07:11the MP and former Minister of Health, Yannick Neuder, proposes, a
00:07:15tax that could bring in, according to him, 350 million
00:07:19euros to finance fire prevention. There were
00:07:22already behaviors that penalize smokers
00:07:26who throw their butts, but there was nothing at
00:07:29the level of tobacco manufacturers on this fight
00:07:33against environmental impact. In
00:07:362021, a simple cigarette butt thrown on a highway rest area in
00:07:39Var caused the mega-fire of Gonfaron. 7000
00:07:43hectares went up in smoke.
00:07:46We continue with this new offensive by Donald Trump against birthright
00:07:50citizenship. The American president has just signed a decree to
00:07:54prevent birth tourism. This involves foreign
00:07:57women traveling to the United States to give birth and for
00:08:00the child to obtain American citizenship a month ago his
00:08:04previous decree challenging birthright citizenship had
00:08:08been rejected by the Supreme Court. Listen to Donald
00:08:11Trump.
00:08:15The Supreme Court made a very regrettable decision regarding birthright
00:08:19citizenship, the vote was close but the decision is very
00:08:22regrettable, so we are going to make adjustments because it is very
00:08:26unfair, this rule was established for another reason, it was
00:08:29just after the Civil War, it was for the children of slaves, but
00:08:33today what is happening is that wealthy people are doing business around
00:08:37this birthright citizenship, it should not work
00:08:40like that, it's a shame. their access to
00:08:43citizenship,
00:08:49the inauguration ceremony of Abelardo de la Espriella, the
00:08:52new president of Colombia, is to take place today, he
00:08:56takes office after his election on June 21st, close to Donald
00:09:00Trump, he had campaigned on the fight against drug trafficking,
00:09:03moreover, he preferred the city of Cali to the capital Bogota for his
00:09:07inauguration, Cali, a city marked by
00:09:10violence linked to drug trafficking.
00:09:16he tried to back down, nothing worked, the pressure
00:09:20on Gianni Infantino does not subside, despite the
00:09:23apologies from part of the FIFA management, UEFA
00:09:26maintains its boycott of the World Cups and on its side the
00:09:30Conmebol which manages South American football, is
00:09:33distancing itself from the methods of the president of FIFA, Nicolas
00:09:36Chamontin.
00:09:40The apologies from the FIFA management, nothing,
00:09:43UEFA assures that the boycott of the World Cups is still in
00:09:48UEFA have been very clear about the conditions related to their non-participation
00:09:52in FIFA competitions. These conditions have not been
00:09:55met. In addition to the abandonment of the FIFA commercial
00:09:58company project decided on Friday. The European football
00:10:02body demands assurances that such an idea will never see the
00:10:05light of day. UEFA reaffirms having lost confidence
00:10:09in Gianni Infantino. Wednesday evening, the boss of
00:10:12world football received the full support of his management, gathered in Morocco for a
00:10:16crisis meeting. In a statement, FIFA
00:10:20apologized after the controversy over opening up to
00:10:23private investors. A project that leaked in the press without
00:10:27the football stakeholders being informed. This Thursday, the
00:10:30South American confederation Conmebol, although reputed to be close
00:10:34to Infantino, in turn denounced the president's
00:10:37methods. The Conmebol council unanimously
00:10:40expresses its concern over repeated unilateral
00:10:43actions, adopted without resorting to dialogue or the institutional
00:10:47mechanism provided for the treatment of this type of
00:10:49situation. Apparently immovable a few
00:10:53weeks ago, Gianni Infantino seems more fragile than ever,
00:10:57the one who has led FIFA for a decade still hopes to be
00:11:00re-elected next March thanks to the support of many federations
00:11:04in Africa and the Middle East.
00:11:07A new case of hantavirus has been detected in a Franco-Argentine
00:11:11person who had spent her holidays in France during the
00:11:14second half of July. This person is now isolated with her
00:11:18family in
00:11:19Spain.
00:11:22The diagnosis came in the afternoon. A new case of
00:11:25hantavirus detected in a Franco-Argentine,
00:11:29announced by the Ministry of Health. The patient,
00:11:32isolated with his family in Spain, is a person on a tourist trip who
00:11:35transited through France in the second half of July. The
00:11:38man, now in good health, is said to have passed
00:11:42through three regions: Normandy, Ile-de-France and
00:11:45Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Health authorities are now trying to
00:11:49precisely trace his journey to find any contact
00:11:52cases. His very mild symptoms reduce the risk of
00:11:56contamination,
00:11:58there's nothing to worry about, it's not a virus that will cause a global pandemic, however, there
00:12:02are people who will need to be found to verify that they will not develop the
00:12:06disease and who will be the people who are really in close contact with the
00:12:09case. According to the ministry, this case is not linked to
00:12:13the epidemic on the MV Hondus ship which had caused a
00:12:16global frenzy. Having left Argentina in April, the cruise
00:12:20ship had to be diverted and the passengers disembarked after the
00:12:24discovery of the virus and the death of a Dutch tourist. In
00:12:27France, contact cases had been placed in isolation in different
00:12:30hospitals. The only French positive case, a 73-year-old
00:12:34woman, was only released today from the hospital
00:12:37after 3 months in intensive care. In
00:12:39total, at least 13 people have been infected worldwide,
00:12:43three have died.
00:12:47We end this news report with a very special record, at
00:12:50almost 100 years old, British Betty
00:12:54Bromage is not afraid of anything, a report by Justin
00:12:57Wild. Very relaxed,
00:13:00this British woman sets a new world
00:13:04record, that of the oldest woman to perform wing walking
00:13:07standing on the wings of an airplane. At
00:13:1197 years old, this is Betty Bromage, reaching speeds of
00:13:14240 km/h, with a strong heart and a
00:13:18certain thirst for adrenaline.
00:13:21When you get old, you can't go here, you can't do that, you can't drive anymore.
00:13:25I can't see very well anymore and it frustrates me a little, so I'm going to do things I'm still
00:13:29capable of, stunningly
00:13:33courageous,
00:13:374 years ago she was,
00:13:40this new exploit today impresses her
00:13:43audience,
00:13:48I'm so proud of her, I mean, she's visually impaired, almost blind, and she does all
00:13:51this, at her age, it's just amazing,
00:13:55and when every excuse seems good to take on challenges, here
00:13:59she is celebrating her 90th birthday with a dizzying
00:14:02zipline descent in Wales.
00:14:06This week, something else pushed her to surpass herself,
00:14:10a gesture that was close to her heart,
00:14:13caregivers who supported her during her stroke. The funds
00:14:17raised will be donated to them.
00:14:20Information continues on France 24, next news update in a few minutes. is with us,
00:14:23l'actualité dans quelques minutes. est avec nous,
00:21:13in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan,
00:21:16Nagashima Island had everything to be a little paradise.
00:21:21The government eventually built a hell for thousands of patients like
00:21:25Shinji, when he arrived at this port in
00:21:281948, escorted by a doctor, he was only 14
00:21:32years old,
00:21:35as I arrived here without knowing anything, I was
00:21:39rather relaxed at first, but once
00:21:42I arrived, everyone told me that I would not be able to return
00:21:46home.
00:21:48Shinji had contracted leprosy a year before his family sent
00:21:52him here, he then knew nothing of this disease that was about to
00:21:55disfigure his face and body by attacking his
00:21:58nerves. Once disembarked, presumed patients
00:22:02were locked up for a week in this building to be
00:22:05examined.
00:22:08At the time, we first carried out disinfection
00:22:12here, because sometimes people arrived with lice,
00:22:15fleas or skin diseases.
00:22:19So there was no one really
00:22:22happy, everyone was crying, even the
00:22:26nurses wore rubber boots and masks made of
00:22:29several layers of
00:22:36protection. Like him, 5,000 children and adults
00:22:39were forcibly or willingly separated from their families
00:22:43and sent to this
00:22:45sanatorium, a containment policy applied throughout Japan thanks to a law of
00:22:491931. The same year, Nagashima Island welcomed its first
00:22:53patients, their belongings were confiscated for fear
00:22:57that they would also be contaminated,
00:23:00here you can see what are called internal circulation tickets, a
00:23:04special currency whose use was authorized only on the
00:23:07island, the main objective was the prevention of
00:23:10escapes, so even if someone managed to escape from here
00:23:13without ordinary money, they could neither take the train nor
00:23:16eat, 17 years later, the
00:23:20is introduced because from 1948, a new
00:23:24treatment allowed lepers to be cured and some patients were
00:23:29island, a fleeting joy, because for these
00:23:33disfigured people, reunions with their loved ones turned
00:23:36into a tragedy,
00:23:38when a leper was detected in a house, all members of his family
00:23:42were discriminated against, it then became
00:23:45very difficult to accept his return.
00:23:47Rejected
00:23:50by their families, cured lepers were also forced by law
00:23:53to continue living on the island,
00:23:56so they built their own society,
00:24:00built roads or schools for child
00:24:04patients,
00:24:07they created their own jobs, Shinji became
00:24:10a farmer,
00:24:12this is a photo from when I played baseball, there are no more fields today, but we often
00:24:16played games, Shinji is now 81
00:24:20years old, 77 of which were spent here. He has
00:24:24known loneliness, but also laughter and
00:24:27love. His wife, now deceased, was also a
00:24:31patient. Like thousands of lepers, they were
00:24:35forced into sterilization.
00:24:38In 2024, this abusive practice was deemed
00:24:41unconstitutional by the Japanese Supreme Court, condemning the state to
00:24:44pay up to €8,000 in compensation per
00:24:47victim. to say, but I felt
00:24:51like I was no longer really a
00:24:54man, without children, Shinji can't even count on
00:24:57his nephews or nieces, his family never fully believed in his
00:25:01recovery, as evidenced by the last call with his
00:25:05mother to go see her at the hospital,
00:25:09she asked me, "Has your face returned to normal, have your hands
00:25:12healed?" I told her that what I had were sequelae,
00:25:16she said no, "Finally it's not worth coming, it shouldn't
00:25:20be known."
00:25:23In 1996, nearly 50 years after the appearance of the first
00:25:27treatments and long legal battles, Japan finally
00:25:31authorized all lepers to leave the country's sanatoriums.
00:25:33A late victory. Shinji was then
00:25:3661 years old, it was impossible
00:25:40the island.
00:25:42Nagashima still belongs to the state and only former patients and a few
00:25:46officials are allowed there. Here the needs of the old.
00:26:32More than half of the 5,000 patients died on this prison
00:26:36island, for many, the deaths are linked
00:26:40to old age or other diseases rather than to leprosy, they are
00:26:44only 66 like Shinji, who have
00:26:48resigned themselves to ending their days
00:26:50here.
00:26:58Since when can we predict the weather? The interest in rain and good
00:27:01weather dates back to antiquity, it is in China that we find the first traces
00:27:05of regular meteorological observations dating from
00:27:081216 BC, but the term meteorology comes to us
00:27:11from the Greek philosopher Aristotle who, in his treatise on meteorology,
00:27:15links weather observations to a physical reality and no longer to a divine
00:27:19action. At that time, to predict the weather, we observed the clouds, the
00:27:22position of the stars, but also the behavior of animals. We had to
00:27:26wait until the 17th century for the practice to become scientific, it was the
00:27:30moment of the creation of measuring instruments, the barometer. First, conceived by
00:27:33the Italian Evangelista Toricelli, measures atmospheric
00:27:36pressure, while the thermometer gives the air temperature.
00:27:40A century later, in 1776, the Royal Society
00:27:43of Medicine developed the first observation network in France, the rise of the telegraph
00:27:47in the 19th century allowed to accelerate the sharing of meteorological
00:27:50measurements from one city to another, and this allowed the British Robert Fitzroy
00:27:54to publish in 1861 the first daily weather
00:27:57forecasts in The Times newspaper, but the real turning point occurred during
00:28:01the First World War. The French army needed to know the weather
00:28:05to launch its attacks in the sky or on land. Considerable human and technical
00:28:09resources were then dedicated to meteorology. However, it was not until
00:28:12the technological innovations of the Second World War and finally
00:28:16satellites in the 1970s that more precise and accurate
00:28:19forecasts were obtained. The success rate is now
00:28:2284% according to Météo France, but global warming complicates the
00:28:26work of
00:28:27forecasters.
00:30:06Hello everyone and welcome if you join us for the headlines of this news,
00:30:10the escalation in Yemen, Neoutir claims responsibility for the attack that left at
00:30:13least 58 dead among the governmental forces supported by Saudi
00:30:17Arabia, it is the deadliest attack since the 2022
00:30:20truce. In Syria, a bomb on a bus near Damascus
00:30:24kills two people in the evening, the attack occurred in
00:30:27Jeramana, a predominantly Druze city, no claim
00:30:31has been made for... the moment
00:30:34also in this edition, an exceptional report,
00:30:37filmed in Havana, Cuba, closer to the
00:30:40inhabitants between energy crisis and economic collapse, their
00:30:44daily life is punctuated by trials.
00:30:58At least 58 soldiers.
