00:00:00We are listening to you, presented by Caroline de Camaret, to be seen on France
00:00:0324.
00:00:08Paris live continues on France 24, thank you for being with us, here are the top
00:00:12headlines, this deadly shooting in
00:00:14Thailand, an armed teenager with a pistol killed his two
00:00:18grandparents before going to his high school, he still killed six
00:00:22people, about fifteen people were injured, the prime minister deplores a
00:00:25terrible incident. The
00:00:28birth of a new bloc. diplomatic and strategic, Pakistan,
00:00:31Turkey and Saudi Arabia have just signed a
00:00:35mutual defense agreement, a pact initialed in Mecca, a symbol between
00:00:39great Sunni powers against the backdrop of war against Shiite
00:00:41Iran. The beginning of a new day today in
00:00:45Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella
00:00:48will be officially inaugurated as president
00:00:51of the Colombian Republic. Symbolically, the
00:00:55pressure increasing on the FIFA president, ceremony will take place in Cali, a stronghold of drug traffickers to whom the new head of state has declared
00:01:00war.
00:01:14How to explain this murderous team in Thailand,
00:01:17why did an armed teenager with a pistol kill 8 people
00:01:21in total, his own grandparents first, then six
00:01:25people from his high school near Bangkok, 15 people were
00:01:28also injured. The shooter killed himself and according to the Thai prime
00:01:32in Buenos Aires and the police minister, he had clearly planned his attack, the
00:01:35details with Axel
00:01:38army's Simon. Outside the school, crying teachers
00:01:41embraced, the staff and students of this school
00:01:45in the Bangkok suburb experienced a nightmare in broad daylight
00:01:48at school, a 14-year-old teenager opened fire, killing several
00:01:52people and injuring about fifteen before committing suicide.
00:01:56ultra-liberal logic, driven by the head of Some students and teachers managed to lock themselves in the classrooms, others.
00:02:30According to the police, the shooter is one of the college students, he fired more than
00:02:33twenty bullets with a pistol belonging to his grandfather and was
00:02:37found in possession of about thirty additional
00:02:39ammunition. The police specified that the shooter had killed his
00:02:43grandparents at their home before going to his college and opening
00:02:47fire. I am deeply pained, not only for
00:02:51the victims, but also to see that such an incident can occur in our
00:02:55country. This is why the government has not
00:03:00the four corners of the world. These players of authorized the extension of the right to possess firearms, it is precisely for this
00:03:02reason.
00:03:06The political commitments of recent years to tighten legislation
00:03:10on arms possession have not prevented the proliferation of
00:03:13shootings. It is estimated that more than 10 million firearms are in
00:03:16circulation in Thailand, or one for every 7 inhabitants. This
00:03:20is the second fatal shooting at a school in Thailand this
00:03:23year. In 2022, a former police officer also killed
00:03:2736 people in a daycare center in the north of the country, the majority
00:03:31of whom were children.
00:03:34This Friday marks the birth of the joint defense agreement of
00:03:38Mecca. It is in the holy city of Islam that the
00:03:41representatives of Turkey, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia signed this
00:03:45defense pact. Signature of Oran with
00:03:48Recep Tayyip Erdogan for Turkey, Pakistani Prime Minister
00:03:52Shehbaz Sharif and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin
00:03:55Salman. The agreement aims to strengthen collective deterrence
00:03:58against any act of aggression. It stipulates that any
00:04:02armed attack against one of the three states will be considered an
00:04:05attack against all of them, an event
00:04:08likely to give rise to a new diplomatic and strategic bloc while
00:04:12the war between the United States and Iran has
00:04:15reshuffled the balances in the
00:04:17region.
00:04:20A page turns today in Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella
00:04:23will officially take on the role of head of state,
00:04:27elected on June 21st, the millionaire lawyer.
00:04:30from the far right will be inaugurated, once is not
00:04:33customary, the ceremony will take place not in Bogota, the capital, but in
00:04:37Cali, the 3rd largest city in the country and incidentally a stronghold of
00:04:40drug traffickers to whom the new president has already declared war with
00:04:44the support of Washington. Romain
00:04:46Michelot:
00:04:49patrols everywhere in Cali, third city of
00:04:52Colombia, it is here under high security that the
00:04:55inauguration of the new far-right president elected, Abelardo de la
00:04:59Espriella. More than 1100 men and women have been deployed
00:05:03here with drones, anti-drone systems, armored
00:05:06vehicles, and everything necessary for this democratic
00:05:10event to take place in.
00:05:13Usually, this inauguration of the Colombian president takes place in the
00:05:17capital, Bogota, but not with Abelardo de la
00:05:20Espriella, the millionaire lawyer, new to politics,
00:05:24chose Cali where attacks claimed by guerrillas recently
00:05:27took place, a symbol, because the new president promises a strong
00:05:31hand to fight these armed groups and drug trafficking,
00:05:35bombings against the camps of these organizations or even the
00:05:38creation of mega prisons like in El Salvador, a
00:05:41program... since his election last June and contrary to his
00:05:45left-wing predecessor, Gustavo Petro, who had tried to
00:05:48negotiate the disarmament of these armed groups. There will be no
00:05:52false peace process, the only peace possible is that imposed by arms.
00:05:56Any bandit who does not submit will be eliminated. I warned
00:05:59you. For this, Colombia can count on the support of the
00:06:03United States and Israel, whose representatives will be present at the
00:06:06inauguration ceremony. But these very muscular outings
00:06:10also worry part of the population.
00:06:14According to his announcements, we clearly see that he will be a rather
00:06:18authoritarian leader.
00:06:21I just hope there will be no violence, new violence within the
00:06:24population, a challenge, because according to the
00:06:28peace idea foundation, in 2025, Colombia had nearly
00:06:3225,000 armed people in illegal
00:06:35organizations.
00:06:38In Latin America, still these images of anger and violence in
00:06:41Argentina. Look, we are
00:06:45intervened to disperse protesters who were marching
00:06:48in front of the Senate, tear gas and water cannon against
00:06:52stone throwers, Argentine media report two injured among the
00:06:56police, on the protester side, it is a bill
00:06:59initiated by Javier Milei that set off the powder, it notably provides for the
00:07:03facilitation of land evictions and it is part of the
00:07:09state, the text is being examined by the Senate and it is also.
00:07:13for some to criticize the ties between the Miley administration and
00:07:16Washington. The double penalty in Cuba, the island is
00:07:20still facing the pressure of sanctions imposed by Washington,
00:07:23as a result a shortage of oil and a series of
00:07:27power cuts that fuel an unprecedented
00:07:31economic collapse. In the end, it is the population that suffers. For Cubans, daily
00:07:34life often rhymes with survival. The proof in images
00:07:38with this report shot in
00:07:39Havana.
00:07:42I do braids, my child, you don't want braids, not
00:07:46expensive, how are you
00:07:47family?
00:07:50Tania is a teacher, like many Cubans, she has another
00:07:54job to be able to live decently, offering braids
00:07:57to passers-by. I am a 50-year-old woman and I face
00:08:01life, I will not lose the strength to continue to
00:08:05fight, times are harder than ever on the communist
00:08:09island,
00:08:11there is no more tourism. Everything is empty, no
00:08:14customers, no one left to style,
00:08:18look at this empty hotel, not a single customer coming
00:08:20out, in January, Washington tightened its
00:08:24energy blockade, followed by new
00:08:27sanctions against companies operating in Cuba.
00:08:42The country is unrecognizable and the hotel doesn't earn enough
00:08:46money to pay the
00:08:48artists,
00:08:51it's the whole island that's suffocating, in the
00:08:54markets, local products are not lacking, but due
00:08:57to lack of gasoline, the cost of their transportation increases, prices climb
00:09:01against a backdrop of already chronic inflation, it's a
00:09:04form of survival, let's put it that way, what is imposed on Cuba every
00:09:07day are trials again and again, and it's us, the
00:09:11Cubans on the street who pay for them.
00:09:14Without electricity, without sufficient currency, all
00:09:18institutions, like banks, are running
00:09:20slowly.
00:09:24I'm waiting to get my salary, people are agitated, they
00:09:27shout, I don't even have money to buy
00:09:29food,
00:09:32several days waiting at the bank to get a salary or a
00:09:35pension, tempers flare, Cubans are
00:09:38tired, civil servants like.
00:09:42the teacher who braids hair in the center, earns a paltry
00:09:46income,
00:09:49I earn 6 dollars a month, and that's really not enough, I have to buy
00:09:53everything, clothes, shoes, and if I think about shoes for the
00:09:56children, I can forget about food,
00:09:59the lack of electricity worsens already precarious
00:10:02living conditions, only one hour of electricity a day, often
00:10:06less, there is nothing in it, if there was anything it would have already
00:10:10rotted with all this lack of electricity.
00:10:25are a luxury, this is a butcher shop where people do their
00:10:28shopping, a private butcher shop, 7 dollars a
00:10:32bag of chicken, more than my
00:10:33salary,
00:10:36suddenly, a woman intervenes, you need an
00:10:39authorization to be able to do that, the committees
00:10:42for the defense of the revolution are still there, but they are less
00:10:45active, worn out by the crisis, Tania, she has nothing to
00:10:49reproach herself for.
00:10:52I love my island, I am a revolutionary. And even if I have nothing
00:10:56to eat, I love our commander Fidel Castro, when he
00:10:59died, I cried for him.
00:11:02Between political pressure and economic collapse, Cubans
00:11:06survive day to day, without seeing the end of the
00:11:09tunnel. Also in the news, football
00:14:30your loyalty, but stay with us huh, the information continues
00:14:34on France 24,
00:15:07Good pulsation of the world, an immersive show dedicated to
00:15:11musical news from five continents to be found on
00:15:14Rfi, rfi.fr and on all
00:15:16platforms.
00:15:56After the coast, we will branch off towards the
00:15:59mountains,
00:16:01we are going to a village called Shebab,
00:16:05it was controlled by the Islamic State.
00:16:41This whole valley was controlled by the Islamic State, here is the village, welcome to
00:16:43Shebab,
00:16:50it was the new stronghold of the Islamic State,
00:16:54from this village in northern Somalia, jihadists
00:16:57sought to extend the group's influence in the world and finance other
00:17:01factions on the continent
00:17:04after the fall of Daesh in the Middle East in 2019. Hundreds of
00:17:08foreign jihadists flocked here. They
00:17:10joined local fighters and captured a territory of 5000
00:17:14km2 in the semi-autonomous region of
00:17:16Puntland.
00:17:22Somalia is a federation of several states. Each has
00:17:25its own army and government.
00:17:29That of Puntland long remained inactive against
00:17:31ISIS.
00:17:34But following the group's significant advances, it... went to war in December
00:17:382024 and deployed this elite unit, the
00:17:41PMPF were initially trained to fight piracy
00:17:45and trained by the United
00:17:47Arab Emirates.
00:17:53This is one of the signs on which they wrote their
00:17:55lies,
00:17:59they wrote verses from the Quran, but I don't master
00:18:02Arabic well, no matter what he wrote
00:18:06here.
00:18:49Today, Colonel Ali's troops will resupply an advanced
00:18:52post,
00:19:01the front line is inaccessible by
00:19:02car.
00:19:07doesn't need rest, wherever you go, he will follow you, you
00:19:11don't need to refuel, no need for spare parts, he has everything
00:19:15he needs.
00:19:18Okay, you can even beat him, yeah, beat him and eat his meat,
00:19:22wherever you are, but only if it's really necessary.
00:19:41Some are still hidden in the vicinity, we must be on high alert.
00:20:04Daesh is difficult to locate.
00:20:09and even more difficult to neutralize,
00:20:23so the army calls for help from American fighter jets and drones,
00:20:26they have carried out more than a hundred strikes in Somalia in
00:20:292025.
00:20:30This is where we unload the donkeys, we
00:20:39will tie them up and carry the ammunition ourselves, the front is
00:20:43that way,
00:20:45after the night's bombings,
00:20:47the soldiers.
00:21:22Daesh fighters hidden by the terrain can appear at any
00:21:25moment, but we will not
00:21:29see them.
00:21:33For our safety, we are forbidden to approach the front,
00:21:48it's a position they used to...
00:22:26We post photos of all the
00:22:28successes so that our people feel
00:22:31confident. This is a government priority.
00:22:58"It's relatively calm, that's what we tell our
00:23:01families,
00:23:04but the war continues, it's not over, nothing
00:23:08works here, no hospitals, no
00:23:12schools, why would people come back
00:23:13here,
00:23:16the few civilians like me who are here don't have children with them.
00:23:52"It is written that they are the Islamic State, but we
00:23:56have seen neither state nor
00:23:57Islam, this is the list of forbidden
00:24:01things, smoking cigarettes, chewing
00:24:04khat, all the vices marked here, they haven't
00:24:08found many people who practice them, the
00:24:11only ones who do that are
00:24:12them.
00:24:16In Somalia, the population is Muslim and already respects Sharia law.
00:24:22Little by little, the villagers realize that this supposed state is a
00:24:25mafia,
00:24:28I serve tea to the soldiers, that's how I make a living
00:24:31now.
00:24:36Traumatized by the men of Daesh, she
00:24:39struggles to tell her daily life before
00:24:41the exile.
00:24:46They took our village, they stole our houses, they made everyone
00:24:51flee, they stole our cattle, our goats, above all, they did
00:24:55everything to us, we had a lot of
00:24:57problems.
00:25:02All those who opposed them, they
00:25:04beheaded them.
00:25:10They did so many things against our culture, against our
00:25:10religion.
00:25:30This mafia prospered thanks to the money extorted in
00:25:32Bossasso,
00:25:35a port city essential to the local economy, located downstream of the
00:25:39mountains.
00:25:46The Islamic State operates clandestinely, it
00:25:49has carried out numerous attacks and caused dozens
00:25:51of victims.
00:25:55Since the beginning of the offensive, the government has reduced Daesh's
00:25:58influence, but the risk of attacks and kidnappings remains high.
00:26:05"These armed men protect our
00:26:06team.
00:26:14As you can see, this shop is closed, the owners closed
00:26:18due to the Islamic State, because they were asking them for hundreds of thousands of
00:26:21dollars.
00:26:25The owner realized that the amount requested was much larger than what he possessed inside the
00:26:28store.
00:26:31Look there..." Here is the symbol of the problems of this
00:26:34city, look how rusty this padlock
00:26:37is, the owners fled to save their
00:26:41lives.
00:26:47Ismail is the only community leader who dares to publicly denounce the Islamic
00:26:51State.
00:26:54It is in this neighborhood that ISIS caused the most problems.
00:26:58They destroyed houses and the goods
00:27:01that were inside. They killed many people in the large
00:27:05market,
00:27:08oh that one was totally
00:27:09destroyed,
00:27:12they were forced to rebuild everything from scratch
00:27:15here.
00:27:18They came during the night, they
00:27:21placed an explosive device on this shop, everyone was sleeping at that
00:27:25time, he had attached it to the
00:27:29door at this level, the entire interior of the building collapsed.
00:28:33Even the small transporter who pushes his wheelbarrow, he found
00:28:35him, he told him: "We know where you
00:28:38work, and this work would have been stolen."
00:29:05The role of the sharia is to help the community in its daily life,
00:29:09resolve disputes, advice.
00:29:12discretely, he also tries
00:29:21to organize the resistance.
00:29:24In the mosque, believers are warned
00:29:28against the vices of Daesh.
00:29:30They are told, their program is
00:29:33to steal and kill.
00:29:37No religion promises that.
00:29:41The members of Daesh know
00:29:43nothing about religion.
00:29:46Some recruits were approached after
00:29:54being prayed,
00:29:57a defector from the Islamic State hidden
00:29:59in Bossasso. "I came
00:30:32from Ethiopia,
00:30:36I was looking for work and apparently I could find some in this
00:30:38country,
00:30:41I went to a mosque every Friday and after
00:30:44several weeks a Yemeni came to me to ask if I
00:30:48wanted to join an organization to defend a strong
00:30:52Islam, this man entrusted me with
00:30:56packages to take to different neighborhoods, I was not allowed to..."
