00:00:00France live on France
00:00:0224.
00:00:0710:30 p.m. in Paris, back to basics, we continue with
00:00:10the news this Sunday in Yemen, the Houthis reported
00:00:1328 Saudi strikes against areas they control, they
00:00:17intervene the day after the attack they themselves carried out against Riyadh,
00:00:21civilians are caught in the trap of fighting, listen to these testimonies from
00:00:24displaced people in Yemen, they are part of the 11,000 people
00:00:28who were forced to... the
00:00:30war,
00:00:38we hope that God will put the country back on the right track, that normal life will return to us and
00:00:42that we will be able to return home in safety, reassured
00:00:46from problems and aggression, far from the difficulties we are
00:00:49currently experiencing.
00:00:53We are exhausted by the planes bombing us day and
00:00:56night, and we have not had a moment of respite.
00:01:00what can we do, if God wills, God will deliver us
00:01:03from this scourge without pain or
00:01:05suffering.
00:01:09The war which also weighs on the global economy, repercussions
00:01:12notably on the price of fuels in Syria, in Damascus,
00:01:16inhabitants oscillate between anger and resignation. Axel
00:01:19Simon. In this service station in the
00:01:23Syrian capital, customers seem resigned to the increase in
00:01:27gasoline prices decreed last week by
00:01:30the authorities,
00:01:33the rise in fuel prices is a global phenomenon, I mean that all countries have
00:01:37already increased fuel prices, until now the government has absorbed these
00:01:41increases since the beginning of the year by taking charge of each increase in
00:01:44prices. Syria, formerly a producer and
00:01:47exporter of oil, has been devastated by years of civil war, the country now
00:01:51produces only about 100,000 barrels per day, a volume well below
00:01:55domestic daily demand which fluctuates around 300,000
00:01:59barrels. The price of gasoline has increased, but
00:02:02customers still pay us the same amount, they say the increase is
00:02:06temporary and that if the price of diesel goes down tomorrow, we will not lower our
00:02:10prices. At the beginning of the week, several
00:02:13demonstrations took place in the Syrian capital and in other
00:02:17provinces of the country, against the drastic increase in fuel
00:02:20prices, the first since the Islamist coalition took power at the end of 2024,
00:02:24which overthrew Bashar
00:02:27al-Assad. A few days earlier, the government had announced
00:02:30an increase in prices of 25 to 40% for gasoline and
00:02:34diesel. The Syrian Ministry of Energy qualified
00:02:38this decision as temporary and justified it by the global increase
00:02:42in energy prices since the outbreak of the war against
00:02:44Iran. To this are added the tensions around the
00:02:48Strait of Hormuz locked by Tehran and
00:02:50Bab el-Mandeb passed under the control of the Houthis of
00:02:53Yemen.
00:02:57In France, more than 10,000 people marched this Sunday in several cities across the country
00:03:00against the proposed law on the presumption of legitimate
00:03:04use of weapons by law enforcement agencies, it was voted in
00:03:07July by deputies and must now be examined by the Senate,
00:03:11no to the license to kill, could be read on the banners, protesters
00:03:15fear that police violence will increase with this
00:03:18law, those who are in favor believe that it
00:03:22will allow law enforcement to no longer be systematically suspected
00:03:25or placed in police custody after a
00:03:27shot.
00:03:31In France, the European Heritage Days
00:03:33mainly extract are coming to an end tonight, for 2 days, you have been able to
00:03:36push open the doors of museums, monuments, but also places
00:03:40usually closed to the public, secret or forbidden places that our
00:03:44colleagues from France 2 invite you to discover, it's a report
00:03:47by Julie Poirier, Antoine Calvez and Lola Bodin
00:03:50Adriaco. It's a fortress that we almost
00:03:53never enter. Fort Boyard, these lucky ones discover
00:03:57it for the first time. With a sporty arrival, we can go,
00:04:01we attach ourselves to the carabiners,
00:04:04there are about fifty of them drawn by lot to live this unique
00:04:07adventure, a
00:04:10people talk about total immersion behind the scenes of the TV game,
00:04:12with the discovery of the treasure room, a few years ago there were real tigers
00:04:16that came
00:04:19history, who are these into the fort and the famous return of Father
00:04:21Fouras, we
00:04:24Stay with us, right after this, the Africa news program presented by Fatima Tawan and recognize all the places we see on TV, but we see
00:04:26that it's different anyway, some things seem smaller, others bigger.
00:04:34seeing myself again very, very small watching the shows at grandma's, I touch the bricks, I check if everything is
00:04:37fine, if it's really life, if it's not, if it's not a
00:04:40dream, always higher,
00:04:43always higher, far from Fort Boyard,
00:04:47700 km away, another forbidden place open to the public, the largest
00:04:51train maintenance workshop of the SNCF, near Lille,
00:04:55a hundred train sets are renovated each year, here everything
00:04:59seems... to measure what impresses me
00:05:01is the effect of size, of grandeur because here we are
00:05:05underneath the train sets, we also have the chance sometimes to pass over and in fact
00:05:09it doesn't give at all the same impression as when we take the train daily.
00:05:13Play with toy trains or put yourself in the shoes of a pilot
00:05:16of an airplane, in Orleans, this air base also exceptionally
00:05:20opens its doors, an unprecedented visit into the
00:05:24cockpit of military aircraft, the children are obviously a little amazed
00:05:27sitting in front, it's always nice to see that because I was in their place
00:05:3020 years ago so it's really
00:05:33nice to see that we can transmit that, it feels
00:05:36strange because I often take planes but a plane like
00:05:40that is impressive. Thousands of
00:05:43sites are still open all over France until tonight for these
00:05:47Heritage Days and this Sunday, September
00:05:5120, is also World Cleanup Day, for several years now in France,
00:05:55hundreds of thousands of people have participated, the result
00:05:58is hundreds of tons of waste
00:06:02collected, a report from Marseille, Toulouse and Valenciennes with Noémie
00:06:06Dam. There, perfect, at the end of this
00:06:09grabber, a first cigarette butt.
00:06:12Abandoned waste, in Valenciennes, the collection is done as
00:06:16a family, oh dear, and there's a lot to do, you see, you understand
00:06:20now why you shouldn't throw away, it's sad because it pollutes the
00:06:23planet a lot, 2,400, a start
00:06:26since by the end of the day these volunteers had collected 400
00:06:30kg, ah I have one, yes, I have another one
00:06:34further south in Toulouse, there too we are
00:06:37active, 50 well-equipped volunteers survey
00:06:41the banks of the Garonne. Objective: identify
00:06:44litter and fight against river
00:06:46pollution. Very quickly, a
00:06:50waste will release its
00:06:53chemical molecules and degrade in the water. Like this tire
00:06:56salvaged, car parts, we also discover
00:07:00them near Marseille in this commercial area. I even found a magnificent
00:07:04olive tree. It has an IV, it really has everything,
00:07:08you don't necessarily expect it. These young girls got up early to
00:07:11participate in this great cleanup, maybe it will make people realize that
00:07:15cigarette butts shouldn't be thrown on the ground, that there are bins for waste, that
00:07:19cardboard, metal and
00:07:23plastic, we will separate everything, because among the waste
00:07:26found, some can be recycled. Last
00:07:29year, 434 tons of waste were
00:07:33collected all over
00:07:35France,
00:07:37it's a book that hasn't come out yet and yet it's already making a lot of noise in the
00:07:41United Kingdom. Charles Spencer, Princess
00:07:44Diana's brother, is publishing his memoirs, some excerpts have already appeared
00:07:48in the press. Odyle Longuevalle and Benjamin de Lombre tell
00:07:52us more. There's Charles, the ex-
00:07:55husband, and Charles, Diana's
00:07:59brother, two men, one woman
00:08:02and a phrase that 30 years later shakes
00:08:06the United Kingdom. It would have been pronounced by the king
00:08:09prince at the time to his brother-in-law during an argument
00:08:13just after Diana's death,
00:08:16he said: we will forget her quickly enough, and after a
00:08:20stunned silence, I replied, I can't believe you just said
00:08:23that. A conversation revealed in Diana's
00:08:27brother's memoirs, a 400-page book intended, according
00:08:31to him, to restore the truth about his
00:08:33sister. It provoked the denial as quick
00:08:36as it was unusual from Buckingham Palace.
00:08:40His Majesty is aware that the pain of brotherly sorrow can obscure
00:08:44reason, alter judgment and distort memories, and the brother
00:08:48ironized, it's not every day that you wake up to find that
00:08:52the king has tried to make you out to be someone whose memories are not
00:08:55reliable, exchanges relayed by the divided
00:08:58newspapers, monstrous headline this
00:09:01tabloid, why is he doing this to the king now
00:09:04wonders another, among the British people,
00:09:08each to their own side, I think he's doing it just to sell
00:09:12books, I don't believe what he says,
00:09:15King Charles mistreated Diana so much, I think he could say
00:09:19that, I believe her brother, nearly
00:09:2130 years after her death Lady continues to unleash
00:09:25passions, even before the release of her brother's book,
00:09:28four copies were stolen from a truck in the
00:09:31Netherlands for unknown
00:09:33reasons.
00:11:25Welcome to your Africa news program, top story this evening, the families
00:11:29of the 37 gold miners who died in detention in central
00:11:32Nigeria are demanding explanations and justice, the
00:11:36government has appointed an independent commission to conduct
00:11:39the investigation. We will talk about the start of the
00:11:42school year in Ivory Coast and the heavy cost of
00:11:46schooling children, a report from our correspondents with parents who are
00:11:49organizing themselves and have to spend astronomical sums
00:11:52to buy school supplies, books and other
00:11:56uniforms and our focus this Sunday evening
00:12:00is on Morocco, 3 days before the legislative elections, nearly 400
00:12:03deputies to elect, new rules to moralize political
00:12:07life and promote women and young people, but behind the ballot, a
00:12:11crucial question, what confidence do Moroccans still
00:12:14place in their political representatives,
00:12:16an analysis with political scientist Nadia Ashimie
00:12:19Alawi.
00:12:23We open this news report by going to central Nigeria, to
00:12:27Mina, where women, families are demanding
00:12:30explanations and justice after the death of 37
00:12:34alleged illegal miners while they were detained by the country's civil
00:12:38defense corps, the government has demanded and appointed
00:12:41an independent commission of 10 members to conduct
00:12:45the investigation. Nina Masson.
00:12:49In Mina, central Nigeria, the streets have
00:12:51returned to calm after several days of violent demonstrations.
00:12:56Last Thursday in this locality, 37 young men were found dead in
00:12:59detention, their families are now demanding
00:13:03justice. The government is supposed to give us
00:13:06justice, if the government does not take decisive measures, we will continue the
00:13:10protest.
00:13:12The 37 alleged gold miners, suspected of illegal gold
00:13:16extraction, had been arrested by the Nigerian civil defense, a
00:13:20paramilitary group that supports the police to ensure
00:13:23security and protect sensitive infrastructure,
00:13:25survivors say they were crammed
00:13:29into overcrowded and poorly ventilated cells. The Nigerian
00:13:33president ordered a thorough investigation. We want
00:13:37the investigation to determine who gave the orders that led to these deaths. We
00:13:40have suffered a serious prejudice, we have been denied justice. The
00:13:44governor decreed 3 days of mourning and postponed the start of the
00:13:47electoral campaign. The state of Niger, which is twice the
00:13:51size of Belgium, is rich in mineral resources and attracts
00:13:55artisanal miners who
00:13:58gold.
00:14:01It's back to school in Ivory Coast and with it a sometimes heavy
00:14:04bill for families, books, supplies, uniforms to
00:14:08school children, parents sometimes have to spend
00:14:12several tens of thousands of CFA francs, so everyone
00:14:15organizes themselves as best they can, the report by Makamara, Damien Kofi and
00:14:18Caroline Mu.
00:14:21Every school year, this single mother preferred the opportunity, she...
00:14:25went to second-hand bookstores and passed her textbooks from one child to
00:14:28another, but with the change of editions, the old books
00:14:32no longer correspond to the new curriculum, which forces her to
00:14:36buy new ones, you have a little one who is in 4th grade, the other one is
00:14:40in 3rd grade, the one who is in 3rd grade, he has a 4th grade book
00:14:43here, you can't give it to the other one, you are
00:14:47forced to buy a new 4th grade book again, even though the old ones are
00:14:50there and the child can use them, we are told we can't anymore, at that moment it
00:14:54tires us out a lot. Some parents find other solutions,
00:14:57HR manager by day, Francis becomes a private hire
00:15:00driver in the evening and on weekends for a daily salary supplement
00:15:03of 25,000 CFA francs. It's back to
00:15:07school to be able to educate the children,
00:15:10the supplies and all that, that's
00:15:13why I became a private hire driver to earn a second income, we
00:15:17can't count on one income so with this one that comes as a
00:15:20supplement, the children can be educated peacefully when
00:15:24the expenses become too heavy, we ask for social assistance. This is
00:15:28the case of Tia Ami, mother of three children who turned to her town hall for
00:15:32her son. She met the director
00:15:36of socio-cultural services to request support for
00:15:39her son who has just obtained his BPC, the establishment where he was
00:15:43assigned and the fees are really high for
00:15:47the parent of students that I am. The town hall of Treichville indicates that it has implemented
00:15:51support schemes for some
00:15:53families. We have almost 4000 children who
00:15:57are assisted. In terms of school kits, we have almost
00:16:005000 children who are assisted. We try to help parents so that parents can
00:16:04be less stressed so that the children themselves
00:16:07work towards excellence in the face of criticism on social media, the state has promised
00:16:11the standardization of school books, but also a
00:16:15manual scholarship, a pre-rental formula to relieve
00:16:18families. The legislative elections that
00:16:22are coming up in Morocco, Moroccans are called to
00:16:25the polls this Wednesday, September 23, to renew the
00:16:28395 seats of the House of
00:16:32Representatives, a scrutiny organized with new rules, more
00:16:36control of candidates and financing but also measures in favor of
00:16:40women and young people, an analysis we
00:16:42have with Nadia, political scientist Nadia
00:16:46Ashimi Alawi, professor of political science affiliated with the International
00:16:49University of Rabat, this was the subject of our focus this
00:16:53Sunday evening, let's listen to an excerpt. What
00:16:56is happening, in fact, is the first place uh at
00:17:00the end of the vote with three large, three
00:17:03major parties that have already been in government and as I told
00:17:07you. uh the Islamists whom we had who at the
00:17:10last legislative elections in the last
00:17:14legislative elections had been ousted by
00:17:18the ballot box, had suffered a significant
00:17:21defeat and who today or in any
00:17:24case it's perhaps the question but I wouldn't talk about not fear much
00:17:28more about you know the elections in Morocco they have been
00:17:31institutionalized, let's say, in the landscape, it's no longer
00:17:34in itself the stakes, what is perhaps scary is the voter
00:17:38turnout, the crisis of confidence in political parties,
00:17:41it is old in Morocco, it is
00:17:44since the turn of the
00:17:472000s, the first major legislative elections that we had
00:17:51in the new reign in 2002, already the question was
00:17:54raised about the crisis of confidence in political parties,
00:17:58political parties that could not renew themselves, 20 years later it is the same
00:18:02thing, it is worse uh it's not...
00:18:05in Morocco, you see how much everywhere you mentioned in the news
00:18:09about the defiance we have towards political parties uh but
00:18:13indeed there is a
00:18:16significant defiance towards a
00:18:20political class which at the same time
00:18:24struggles to expand its ranks, which struggles to open its
00:18:27partisan structures but which also not
00:18:31only struggles to renew itself but also ultimately is given
00:18:35little scope, I was mentioning earlier about the
00:18:39meaning of elections which are to take power, you know the big
00:18:42political issues, the big, the big
00:18:46public policies are almost already on
00:18:50track, so this defiance
00:18:53added to the fact that the stake uh and that the
00:18:56question about the
00:18:59meaning or the real weight contributes to
00:19:03fueling a kind of disinterest
00:19:06and we end up in Guinea-Bissau and women
00:19:09also took part in the struggle for independence, yet their
00:19:13stories remain largely unknown in her new book, journalist
00:19:16and writer Richie Shirok traces the journeys of
00:19:20these women involved in the liberation struggle against Portugal in the
00:19:2460s and 70s, a work of memory to bring these
00:19:27combatants back to the heart of the national narrative as Guinea-Bissau
00:19:31prepares to celebrate this September 24 the 53rd anniversary of the
00:19:34proclamation of its independence. Sarah Sako spoke
00:19:38with her. Ricky Schryock, hello. In The
00:19:41Moon will not burn us, you immerse us in the war of independence waged by Guinea-
00:19:45Bissau and Cape Verde against Portugal between
00:19:491963 and 74, alongside actors or rather actresses
00:19:53completely unknown to
00:19:56women and what was their role? This
00:19:59book largely tells the story of the women who played a decisive role in the
00:20:03victory of the 11-year war of independence waged by Guinea-
00:20:07Bissau and Cape Verde. Why did they
00:20:09play a decisive role? Because they built hospitals and schools and
00:20:13provided education and health care, thus contributing to
00:20:16building a society, which was very important for the victory in the war
00:20:20of independence in Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde. The book follows more
00:20:24particularly one woman, Johanna Gomis, who is only 14 years old when she
00:20:27joins the struggle and fights not only for national liberation but also
00:20:31for her own liberation. The book therefore tells the story of these women and the role
00:20:35they played in the creation of a state,
00:20:37but also the personal impact that this struggle had on them. And
00:20:41how did you find the trace of these disappeared
00:20:45characters? That's an excellent question, I found
00:20:47them quite naturally while I was doing other
00:20:51reports in Guinea-Bissau, it's simply a group of extraordinary women
00:20:55who are still very active, some of them are still in the
00:20:58country. It was during my reports carried out for more than a decade
00:21:02in Guinea-Bissau, and each encounter led me to another.
00:21:05Guinea-Bissau
00:21:07is often reduced to its number of coups,
00:21:11to drug trafficking and you choose to tell its story differently
00:21:15through its own ideals. What remains of
00:21:17it today? I think that... first of all, the main ideal that
00:21:21remains is this idea that even if they were outsiders during the war of
00:21:25liberation, that they were outnumbered and had
00:21:29fewer resources, they chose to fight for their freedom, and
00:21:32I think that this form of tenacity is still largely part of the lives of many
00:21:36people, and that is what makes the country still alive and dynamic. Many
00:21:40people have a certain respect for natural resources and the land, which
00:21:44occupies an important place in the book, but which was also at the heart of the
00:21:47struggle, and this is also something that... remains very present
00:21:50today among the ideals in Guinea- Bissau and then women,
00:21:54the book talks about strong women, and there are many strong women in
00:21:57Guinea-Bissau, so I think that this is also one of the ideals that
00:22:01remains. You write that the history of these women is
00:22:04rich in lessons well beyond the
00:22:07country, what has it taught you? I think that
00:22:09this is one of the greatest lessons I have
00:22:13learned, and one of the things I hope that readers will take away from the book, is that the
00:22:17power of creation is stronger than the power of destruction. During
00:22:20the war, these women contributed to the victory by creating, by building
00:22:24hospitals, by building schools, by taking care of others
00:22:27and their compatriots and by showing them that they could have a better life outside
00:22:31of colonial power, and they did not necessarily do so by killing their
00:22:35enemies, but by meeting the needs of their own people, I think it is always
00:22:39good to remember that power is not necessarily measured by what one can do to one's
00:22:43enemy, but by how one can help the people one wants to help,
00:22:46that's it, I think that's it, that's how
00:22:49we close this news report, thank you to all those who followed us all over the world
00:22:53and this evening in particular from Bissau to Rabat passing through

00:24:04"It has a part of the history of this city that is
00:24:07disappearing due to demolitions and rehabilitation
00:24:11all limits that do not respect what we
00:24:15call the conservation and enhancement plan, it has the
00:24:18enhancement plan". It is a source of architectural regulations that

00:24:26the buildings are rehabilitated and conform
00:24:29to the old architecture, don't you think?
00:24:50The population generally doesn't want to talk about it, especially in
00:24:53Saint-Louis, it's really a taboo subject. It's
00:24:57rare to see
00:25:00slavery in Saint-Louis. Well, I'm sure
00:25:03that many Senegalese people don't know about slavery,

00:25:12but the national heritage through methodology
00:25:14has focused
00:25:17on slavery on Gorée and... on colonization in
00:25:21Saint-Louis by trying to show both sides, the bad
00:25:24side and the
00:25:27useful side, so that's why it was said that colonization is a necessary
00:25:31evil, so colonial heritage is also a necessary evil, so it has a
00:25:34very painful part, we don't even want to talk about it, but it still has
00:25:38another part today that can be well
00:25:41valued.
00:26:02nobody knows about where we're gonna
00:26:04go,
00:26:07I don't have anybody here. I've never been to
00:26:10camera,
00:26:14we're doing the worst of the worst, always first,
00:26:30I think that the plan of...
00:26:40This is illegal, a judge said this is illegal, and this is continuing on.
00:26:44Ice is very opaque about its intentions to remove
00:26:48people to third countries. I think that it's fair to say
00:26:51that everybody is running a little scared of the
00:26:54US.
00:27:07If you are told "overseas territory", of course,
00:27:10like everyone, it evokes breathtaking landscapes,
00:27:14magnificent nature, unleashed
00:27:17elements or the richness of cultural
00:27:20heritage, beyond the postcards and clichés,
