00:00:07Hello everyone, happy to have you back for the rest of the night
00:00:11impartially on the edition, here are the headlines for this news report: the pro-Iranian Houthi rebels
00:00:14are increasingly threatening Yemen. The
00:00:18Saudi capital is now clearly targeted, with
00:00:21oil installations near
00:00:23preserve them. Wendy Riyadh airport appearing to have been hit. The kingdom says for the first
00:00:27time that it has intercepted a ballistic missile.
00:00:30The capital is under attack. Saint-Pierre and Miquelon is
00:00:33French, that's obvious. Emmanuel
00:00:37Macron's words upon his arrival on the archipelago, more than
00:00:394300 km from France, a highly
00:00:43symbolic visit with the arrival this Sunday
00:00:45of Canadian Prime Minister Maccarnet. We'll see the
00:00:49clash, they started shooting at stakes in this
00:00:51report. And then we'll take you to Laos, once
00:00:55known as the land of elephants, but today, the species is
00:00:58endangered. We'll go to meet a French woman who decided
00:01:02to save these endangered animals.
00:01:16The Saudi kingdom, increasingly under pressure, Riyadh
00:01:20acknowledges that a ballistic missile was fired by Houthi rebels from
00:01:23Yemen at dawn on the capital, but assures that it was
00:01:27intercepted. Other attacks on the ground
00:01:30have also been thwarted, say the authorities, but in the
00:01:34images, as we will see, oil installations near
00:01:37the airport seem to have been hit. The story by Thibault
00:01:41Franceske:
00:01:43A thick column of black smoke rises above Riyadh's main airport
00:01:47Saturday morning. Not far
00:01:49away, an oil depot was hit after a night of alerts
00:01:53in the Saudi capital. The coalition led by
00:01:57Saudi Arabia against the Houthis in Yemen accuses them of being behind
00:02:00the attack. The Houthis confirm it. This is the first time
00:02:04since the resumption of fighting in July that Riyadh has been
00:02:06hit.
00:02:10These two large-scale military operations were carried out using
00:02:13a large number of ballistic missiles and drones. The first targeted
00:02:17the Saudi capital Riyadh, and the second targeted Aramco in
00:02:20Yanbu. In Yemen, fighting between the Houthi
00:02:24rebels, supported by Iran, and government forces, backed by Riyadh, intensified on
00:02:28Thursday. The Yemeni army released these images of
00:02:32strikes it carried out, but this is not enough to stop the armed rebel group's
00:02:36advance. To the east, the Houthis are advancing in the
00:02:39oil-rich Marib region, an important source of revenue for the
00:02:43Yemeni government. To the west, they have taken control of the
00:02:47Red Sea coast and especially the Strait of
00:02:49Bab-el-Mandeb, a strategic passage for global trade
00:02:53and especially for Saudi oil. The city of
00:02:56Mocha, in particular, was taken, which worries the inhabitants.
00:03:01"They all fight against us, they are all against Islam and Muslims and
00:03:05against Yemen in particular, America and everyone, we
00:03:09pray to God to save
00:03:13us." According to the United Nations, at least 11,200 people have been displaced
00:03:17since the resumption of fighting. Many
00:03:19week on the sidelines of of them have fled to Djibouti across the Red
00:03:22Sea.
00:03:25This is an unprecedented attack against freedom of the press in the United States,
00:03:28yet guaranteed by the...
00:03:31The raid with Constitution. Donald Trump has carried out his threats. Journalists from
00:03:34CNN and MSNBC and the Politico website were
00:03:38prevented this Saturday from accessing the White
00:03:42sleep on the floor on the House. Their badges were deactivated. The story by Thibault
00:03:45Franceske.
00:03:48An American journalist from MSNBC
00:03:51(XMSNBC)
00:03:54them on forced to do her live report from the street corner facing the White
00:03:56House, when she could, like her colleagues, enter before.
00:04:00Consequence of Donald Trump's brutal decision to ban
00:04:05violation of Israeli military
00:04:05peril, the survival of the MSNBC, CNN and Politico from the White House.
00:04:08again in the rest of the late edition, It's not just me, but our photographer also had his badge revoked this
00:04:12morning. Yesterday, our journalists were able to work inside the White
00:04:15House. On CNN, a presenter denounces this
00:04:20Oil facilities near decision. While pressure intensifies on Donald Trump, he takes his frustration out on the
00:04:24First Amendment. The president announces that he is banning this
00:04:28channel from the White House. The president has multiplied his attacks against the press
00:04:32since his return to power. He criticizes these three media outlets for their
00:04:35allegedly biased coverage of his news. Under the pretext
00:04:38that they are not favorable to him, he accuses them of spreading false
00:04:42information. When you watch CNN, it's simply
00:04:46false, that's why their ratings are not good. When you
00:04:50watch MSNBC, which was previously called MSNBC and
00:04:53some call MSDC for the Democratic
00:04:56National Committee, it's false information.
00:05:00And when you look at Politico, I mean the Biden administration gave them
00:05:03something like 8 million dollars to keep them afloat and their
00:05:07articles are false. Politico denounces these
00:05:10accusations. The three media outlets remind that this presidential
00:05:13decision is contrary to the First Amendment of the American
00:05:17Constitution which guarantees freedom of expression.
00:05:21Politico will continue to report
00:05:24news of this administration in the White House and subsequent
00:05:27ones. We will vigorously defend our First Amendment
00:05:30rights against any attempt to restrict them. The
00:05:34allegations that Politico received government subsidies are
00:05:38false and have been completely refuted.
00:05:41The Trump administration has already banned the Associated Press from the Oval Office
00:05:45for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf
00:05:49of America as Donald Trump wishes. The agency has challenged this decision in
00:05:53court.
00:05:56And this decision has also been condemned by the White House Correspondents' Association, which urges
00:05:59in a statement the American president, and I quote, to
00:06:03immediately restore journalists' access,
00:06:07because this decision violates the First Amendment of the
00:06:09Constitution. For Donald Trump. It's a dream come
00:06:13true, he wrote on his social network. The security agreement found
00:06:17on Greenland was also welcomed by the Greenlandic
00:06:20and Danish authorities. They are delighted that their
00:06:23sovereignty is respected. After having
00:06:26wanted to buy and annex this autonomous Danish territory,
00:06:30the American president obtains permanent control
00:06:32of Washington over the island's security, but
00:06:36also the power to keep Russia and China away. We
00:06:39therefore see that the outlines of this agreement are still vague, but what do
00:06:43the local residents think already? Olivier
00:06:47Fessoll?
00:06:49After months of threats, the scenario of Greenland's annexation by the
00:06:52United States seems now ruled out. In the streets of
00:06:56Nuuk, the capital of the autonomous Danish territory,
00:06:59there is hesitation between relief and caution.
00:07:02I see nothing problematic in an agreement of this kind. There is already
00:07:06the Thule air base with Americans stationed there.
00:07:10I don't consider it a bad thing. As far as our
00:07:13protection is concerned,
00:07:17we'll see. It also depends on how the agreement is worded. We
00:07:20hope the leaders have concluded a good agreement, because our
00:07:24country must be protected both in the air and at
00:07:27sea.
00:07:32This Friday, Donald Trump announced that he had obtained permanent
00:07:36control over the security of this territory, as
00:07:39immense as it is strategic. The step aims... in particular to prevent
00:07:43Russia and China from establishing bases there.
00:07:46Washington, for its part, intends to open new ones and
00:07:50station more troops there. The government of the
00:07:53autonomous territory welcomed this agreement. On behalf of
00:07:56Greenland, I welcome this agreement, which will benefit not only
00:08:00the security of all, but also the continued development of this
00:08:03country. The same enthusiasm from the Danish
00:08:06Prime Minister. According to her, the text respects both the
00:08:09sovereignty of the kingdom and the right of Greenlanders.
00:08:12determination, a strategic partnership around a key
00:08:16territory. The island could become a major passage as the melting
00:08:19ice opens new shipping routes. Another
00:08:22issue: the significant reserves of rare earths in its subsoil.
00:08:26The agreement, which has not been made public, is to be signed next
00:08:31the United Nations General Assembly.
00:08:35An agreement also welcomed by Emmanuel Macron upon his arrival in Saint-Pierre and
00:08:38Miquelon, the Head of State who also hastened to affirm that this...
00:08:42territory of 5800 km
00:08:45is French, it's obvious, he said. The objective of this visit:
00:08:49to reaffirm France's presence at the gates of the United States. The Canadian
00:08:53Prime Minister is expected there in a few hours. We see the
00:08:56issues with Nina
00:08:57Mason.
00:09:01More than 4000 km from Paris, a small piece of France
00:09:05located at the gates of Canada. Saint-Pierre and
00:09:08Miquelon, the last French territory in North America, which Emmanuel
00:09:12wants to restore to its full strategic dimension. And for good
00:09:16reason, this archipelago of less than 6000 inhabitants is being closely
00:09:19scrutinized by Donald Trump, as evidenced by this fake map posted on
00:09:23his social network, in which the American flag covers Canada,
00:09:27Greenland, Mexico, the Antilles, but also Saint-Pierre and
00:09:30Miquelon. In this strategic region, also
00:09:34coveted by Russia and China, Paris therefore wants to strengthen
00:09:37ties with Ottawa. Emmanuel Macron is to meet him this
00:09:40Sunday, Prime Minister Carney, a first for a
00:09:44Canadian head of government. So, we are here, France
00:09:48is present thanks to Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, through Saint-Pierre and Miquelon here,
00:09:52at the heart of the
00:09:54global issues in this region, and this also links us with Canada, and so it will be
00:09:58a way to talk about the future together
00:10:02and to consolidate our relations in many areas. On
00:10:05the agenda: energy, defense, critical minerals, and
00:10:08strategic technology, but Emmanuel Macron will also have to face
00:10:12internal challenges in the territory: high costs,
00:10:15remoteness, aging infrastructure, and a declining
00:10:19population. In Miquelon, the rising sea levels also force part of
00:10:22the village to move to higher ground, an unprecedented
00:10:25relocation in France that has become one of the symbols of adaptation to
00:10:29climate change.
00:10:33And to finish the news, a little change of scenery. Now, we're taking
00:10:37you to Laos, once nicknamed the kingdom of a
00:10:40million elephants. Today, there are only 800 left, a species
00:10:43threatened by humans, and a French woman is trying to
00:10:48has created a sanctuary for endangered animals. This is a report
00:10:51by Arnaud Boute and Galcaron.
00:10:55On the banks of the Mekong in Laos, operation save the
00:10:59elephants. This is today the fight of
00:11:03this French woman, Wendy Legat crosses the
00:11:06river every morning to join her
00:11:09pachyderms, formerly in captivity, sometimes
00:11:12beaten, today in
00:11:15freedom. So there are the three females of the same
00:11:18family, there are my sisters on the left,
00:11:22Mae Ping and Mae Ning, and... has managed to
00:11:25buy them one by one from their owners. There's not a day where I get
00:11:29tired of seeing them, there's not a day where seeing them together, I don't say, finally
00:11:33succeeded. The French woman manages this refuge, a
00:11:36huge forest park. Wendy Legat therefore offers a
00:11:40peaceful life to elephants.
00:11:43Tourists pay about sixty euros to observe them. The one
00:11:47above is Minine, 33 years old, she's the last of the three we saved, saved
00:11:51from forced labor. From the moment you remove an elephant from
00:11:55a natural environment, there is inevitably a form of mistreatment. It's
00:11:59magical, it's really magical and then, well, to
00:12:02see all the energy deployed by Wendy
00:12:05to maintain
00:12:08these animals in their natural environment, it's
00:12:11it's magnificent. We were really curious to see how we
00:12:15could respect the animal and
00:12:17still do tourism with
00:12:20that, so that's what interested us most in this
00:12:24remote region of Laos, the veterinarian only visits once
00:12:28a month. Look at those beautiful eyes she has, she doesn't have the sun, but she has light green
00:12:31eyes. Yes, I'm talking about you, you're going to have
00:12:34the most beautiful eyes. So, you have to
00:12:38monitor daily for the slightest health
00:12:40issue. Great.
00:12:44You see, she has a button that's cracked, she most certainly stepped on a
00:12:48stone. We absolutely have to
00:12:51cut it. The park has six elephants and perhaps
00:12:55a seventh soon.
00:12:57You see, she's not that old, I think she's around 40 years old and they want to
00:13:01sell her. They're asking 38,000 dollars. We're doing an online donation
00:13:05appeal and we're often lucky enough to have many former visitors who support us,
00:13:09visitors who become patrons. That's what saved
00:13:12this elephant, who was long mistreated by her former
00:13:15owners.
00:13:18She has scars all over her body. They used picks to
00:13:21force her to move, so that's that's Mekrame, she's 60...
00:13:2572 years old, she worked for 40 years in the forestry industry,
00:13:28pulling 3 tons of wood per day and then 15 years in the tourism
00:13:32industry. At 64, she still had tourists on her
00:13:35back. Because in Laos, the
00:13:38overwork in tourist activities threatens many
00:13:41elephants. Rides on animal backs are
00:13:44still allowed. This is no longer the case in Indonesia. And here,
00:13:48a dozen daily outings per
00:13:51elephant. I'm scared, but...
00:13:55awesome.
00:14:02The elephant is exploited in the forestry industry. It
00:14:05pulls large quantities of
00:14:07wood.
00:14:12It can pull much more, up to 500
00:14:15kilos.
00:14:20Wendy Legat's nature reserve is one of three in the
00:14:23country. This is insufficient. With
00:14:26deforestation, another
00:14:30species is at stake. It is estimated that there are only
00:14:34800 elephants left today. The number of births is declining, consequently, the
00:14:37population is rapidly decreasing, and if nothing changes, all the
00:14:41elephants in Laos could disappear in the coming
00:14:45decades.
00:14:47That's all for now. We'll be back in 15 minutes for a new news report. See you
00:14:51later.
00:15:16These images were shot by Israeli soldiers during an intervention
00:15:20in late 2025 in the village of Baijin, located in
00:15:24Syria.
00:15:29Facing them were villagers who were shooting. The clashes left
00:15:3313 dead on the Syrian side and six Israeli soldiers wounded.
00:15:38The Israeli army also arrested three men, claiming they were
00:15:42members of Aljama al Islamiah, a
00:15:44terrorist group aligned with Hamas. Among them were
00:15:48two brothers, Nidal and Muhammad Akasha. Their brother
00:15:52did belong to this group. He was killed by an Israeli
00:15:55strike in 2023. But the daughter of one of the two men claims that
00:15:59her father, like her uncle, are farmers and have no
00:16:03connection with
00:16:03terrorism.
00:16:07My father came home, they immediately confronted him,
00:16:10grabbed him, and took him out to the courtyard. He has nothing to do with
00:16:14anything, he works on the land. Then they went up and brought his uncle
00:16:18down, put them on the floor of the house,
00:16:21and we had weapons pointed at our heads, so we couldn't move at all. Then there was a
00:16:26the houses, many of us were martyred at that time. But once the
00:16:30clash was
00:16:31over, they took them away.
00:16:37are taken to prisons in Israel. The Israeli army has not
00:16:40responded to us about the charges against the Akasha brothers.
00:16:44According to them, they only claim to arrest individuals for whom they have
00:16:48reasonable suspicion of involvement in terrorist
00:16:51activities. Nidal Akasha was finally released on August 26th
00:16:55last year, 9 months after his arrest. His brother
00:16:58Mohammad remains detained in Israel. Since the fall of
00:17:01Bashar Al-Assad's regime in December 2024, the Israeli army
00:17:05has extended its military presence in southern Syria. It
00:17:08has established at least 10 military outposts and is increasing
00:17:12raids on Syrian territory. Six outposts are
00:17:15established in the buffer zone and four beyond Syrian
00:17:18territory. This zone, supposed to be a demilitarized
00:17:21no-man's land, was established after the Yom Kippur War in
00:17:251974. According to the Sigil Center, a group that
00:17:29documents Israeli army activities in Syria, since
00:17:32December 2024, at least 248 people have been
00:17:36arrested, most of them released after a few
00:17:38days. 43 are still detained. 36
00:17:42residents have been killed during Israeli military operations in
00:17:45Syria. Other families describe similar scenes to those in Baijin
00:17:49in several localities in southern Syria: nocturnal arrests,
00:17:53house searches, threatened or immobilized
00:17:56relatives. Hiam recounts the Israeli army's
00:18:00intervention at her home on the night of February 16,
00:18:032026.
00:18:07They hit me on my face and hands, and they took my children.
00:18:10They scattered everything in the house, broke the furniture. My
00:18:14eldest son, Hamza, 19 years old, was stripped
00:18:18and thrown on the ground with the dog on top of him. He was begging them to get the
00:18:22dog off him. My other son was in the other room, they had
00:18:25tied him up too.
00:18:28The United Nations force responsible for monitoring the ceasefire between
00:18:32Israel and Syria confirmed that it had observed injuries to the arm
00:18:36and face the next day.
00:19:09the Syrians. There were rooms for Syrians
00:19:12only and rooms for Palestinian
00:19:15prisoners only. I mean, they'd tell you to lie on your stomach, you'd have to
00:19:20concrete sometimes for an hour or so
00:19:22a day. They would repeat it three or four
00:19:26times a day. This happened daily. A commando
00:19:28unit would come to train
00:19:31raids. They would throw stun
00:19:35grenades. states that any harm caused to
00:19:39detainees constitutes a
00:19:42law and regulations and is therefore prohibited. It
00:19:46also states that the preventive detention of individuals suspected of terrorism is
00:19:50consistent with Israeli law. On September 9,
00:19:53Benjamin Netanyahu visited, along with several Israeli officials, the
00:19:57military positions established by Israel in southern
00:20:00Syria.
00:20:31by October 7th, and therefore the Israelis seek to prevent a
00:20:35military presence immediately
00:20:37at their borders. Does there objectively
00:20:41exist risks of terrorist threats and, even more so, military threats
00:20:44of invasion of the State of Israel by either the Syrian
00:20:48state or by military groups established in
00:20:51Syria? I don't think so, but the problem is not whether
00:20:54the fact actually exists, but whether the
00:20:58perception of this fact or this threat in Israel is
00:21:02important or not. The families of the detainees continue to protest
00:21:04regularly. They demand information about the fate of their relatives,
00:21:08to be able to communicate with them, and that they can be cared
00:21:10for.

00:21:29It's in the weeklies with Émilie Boil today, hello Émilie,
00:21:32welcome, you talk a lot about artificial intelligence because that's what
00:21:36comes out of the weeklies this week. Yes, of course, a big
00:21:40week for AI, and the point is actually its
00:21:43front page, moreover, we discussed a fear for
00:21:46humanity, especially when AI escapes its
00:21:50control. The newspaper dedicates six or seven pages to what it calls a
00:21:54potential AI-pocalypse, I
00:21:56quote, "AIs would communicate, control cyberattacks, the latest
00:22:00generation of AIs sow panic." This
00:22:04article, I'm sorry, notably includes the words of tech bigwigs and
00:22:07particularly focuses on an essay by Dario Amodei, the
00:22:11CEO of Anthropic, titled "Pacing the Frontier," in
00:22:15which he advocated for a slowdown in the development of artificial
00:22:18intelligence, an idea supported by Sam Altman of OpenAI,
00:22:22Elon Musk of XAI or Grok, but not, of course, by
00:22:26Donald Trump who minimizes the situation and above all
00:22:29wishes to overtake China. And it is this arms
00:22:33race that is also making the front page of The Economist this
00:22:36week. And the big question is, can this race be stopped?
00:22:40The newspaper explains that America will struggle to control the development
00:22:44of this technology while remaining ahead of China in this frantic
00:22:48race. The Economist revisits the impact of technological
00:22:51advancements and AI in warfare, particularly following Anthropic's
00:22:55discoveries, which reportedly found that these models were
00:22:59used for malicious purposes, for example, by a Malian
00:23:02intelligence service that developed a mass surveillance
00:23:06system, or by Houthi rebels in Yemen
00:23:09suspected of developing software for
00:23:12ballistic missiles. It also seems that
00:23:16tech moguls are preparing for a potential AI-pocalypse.
00:23:20Yes, the pages of Courrier International transport us to
00:23:23Argentina, this time thanks to a report from the Financial Times
00:23:27which explains that a group of tech entrepreneurs is building
00:23:31a fortress in the middle of the Argentine desert.
00:23:34Their post-apocalyptic refuge is in the middle of an estate
00:23:37five times the size of Manhattan at the foot of the Andes and should
00:23:41soon become self-sufficient. The Financial Times journalists
00:23:45also spoke to one of them, Martin Warsavski, on the
00:23:48phone, who said, and I quote, "we are already in the midst of a third
00:23:52world war and having a refuge is imperative." But the number of
00:23:55billionaire refuges seems to be increasing. Mark
00:23:58Zuckerberg, for example, owns an underground shelter on his
00:24:02ranch in Hawaii. And according to LinkedIn founder, Reid Hoffman,
00:24:06several wealthy individuals in Silicon Valley have acquired a kind
00:24:10of apocalypse insurance. So the good news
00:24:13is that the architects of the end of the world will survive it. To be
00:24:16sure, the next apocalypse will be even cooler.
00:24:21H. In French news, this presidential campaign which is
00:24:24starting to get into full swing, Le Nouvel Obs tells us about a clash of
00:24:28political generations, yes and especially on the left, according to
00:24:32Le Nouvel Obs, nearly one in two young people want to vote for Mélenchon in the
00:24:35presidential election, a choice that shifts according to the newspaper and
00:24:38provokes heated debates. This article
00:24:41here that you see explains that seducing young voters is a key tactic
00:24:45for the Mélenchonist party which tries, and I quote, "to attract a
00:24:49generation that... that prefers the promise of a break with the governing
00:24:53left. LFI would bet among other things, on
00:24:56inverted socialization, that is to say, a movement of
00:24:59political influence of children on their parents and grandparents,
00:25:02the opposite of traditional political transmission, and
00:25:06girls are also massively investing in social networks where the movement is a
00:25:10great success. For example, 3 days after its publication, a clip
00:25:13of a debate posted by Mélenchon reached 80,000 views, while
00:25:17an excerpt from the same debate only got 4,000 views when
00:25:21it was published by Edouard Philippe, but
00:25:24she obviously can't win only with young people, the party still has to
00:25:28convince the rest of the voters, so the newspaper warns families on the left
00:25:32that Sunday meals risk being a little spicy.
00:25:36We're going to leave you with this rather improbable information, as you
00:25:40told me, you're going to introduce us to a particularly strange
00:25:43library, yes, a rather strange subject in the Guardian Weekly. We will talk about
00:25:47politics, but another subject has caused a lot of family debate, and that's pets.
00:25:51So, if, for example, you want a dog or a cat, but
00:25:54your partner is not convinced, the San Diego Natural
00:25:58History Museum has the solution. You can go rent one of their 100...
00:26:02100 taxidermied animals, such as this coyote you can
00:26:06see, or even a cheetah's head. This taxidermy
00:26:09library was initially intended for schools and
00:26:12students, but it is open to everyone, and it's an idea that is
00:26:16apparently quite popular. The newspaper explains that 186 people would have
00:26:19rented almost 4,000 specimens last year, 60 of whom were
00:26:23schools, 30% were associations, and the last 10%
00:26:27were individuals, artists, or amateur
00:26:30individuals, so there you go. If you want to test the concept of a pet
00:26:34at home, you have to go to San Diego. I understand the pedagogical aspect,
00:26:37but as for individuals, no, no, no.
00:26:40Protect nature, start there. Go into nature, listen to the real birds,
00:26:44their songs, and you will feel much better. You won't need
00:26:48taxidermied animals. Thank you very much, Émilie, for this column. That was in the
00:26:51weeklies.
