00:00:12Arabia all weekend, the latest drones and missiles hit
00:00:15Riyadh and Amman airports overnight,
00:00:19resulting in at least one dead and 11 injured, in addition to 13 dead and
00:00:23309 injured on Saturday, Donald Trump does not rule out supporting
00:00:27the Saudis against the Houthi movement, who denounced
00:00:30a Russian strike against a Ukrainian power plant this Sunday. The strike,
00:00:34despite Donald Trump's surprising announcement during the weekend, an energy ceasefire
00:00:37between Kyiv and Moscow, the statement therefore surprised the Ukrainian president
00:00:41while the United States has just concluded an agreement on the purchase
00:00:45What is the United States' strategy towards of Russian Diesel. Then Raphaël
00:00:48Glucksmann largely wins the primary of the social-democratic left in France,
00:00:51the MEP is therefore designated as a candidate
00:00:55like we have done today, because at the end of from the first round with 66% of the votes, far ahead of his opponents. With

00:01:03candidate from its ranks to represent it in the presidential election on

00:01:16this morning, a report on the impact of road accidents on the Indian
00:01:19economy. The phenomenon is so significant that it costs the country
00:01:46In the news, this new series of Houthi strikes on Saudi Arabia. Overnight,
00:01:50Shiite fighters from Yemen again claimed ballistic
00:01:54missile, cruise missile, and drone attacks.
00:01:57The Saudi Civil Aviation Authority announced one dead and 11
00:02:00injured in this new attack, which is in addition to the 13 dead,
00:02:04309 injured over the weekend, particularly at Riyadh airport. You
00:02:08see these impressive images from surveillance cameras, the airport is
00:02:11still closed for now and for the whole day. Sophie
00:02:14Samail, Saudi Arabia
00:02:17relentlessly attacked, its main
00:02:21target, Riyadh airport, targeted by two
00:02:24attacks on Saturday and
00:02:26in Clermont-Ferrand this Sunday, the leader of Sunday, the deadliest on its soil since 2015.
00:02:31Yemeni armed forces carried out four major operations over the past
00:02:3524 hours, using ballistic and cruise missiles as well as
00:02:39drones. The first operation carried out in three
00:02:42phases targeted King Khalid International Airport in
00:02:45Riyadh and led to the disruption of air traffic and
00:02:48the complete closure of the airport.
00:02:52On these surveillance video images,
00:02:54passengers at King Khalid Airport in Riyadh were shocked by
00:02:58the violence of the explosion.
00:03:00Since Saturday, hundreds of injured people have been treated in this
00:03:04hospital in the Saudi capital. The airport
00:03:07is closed until Monday evening. The strikes
00:03:11also hit other airports and Saudi energy
00:03:15infrastructure located in the east of the
00:03:17country, all of which are claimed by the Houthi movement in
00:03:21Yemen. The coalition led by Saudi
00:03:25Arabia, for its part, announced that it had shot down a missile
00:03:29in the same interception and destruction of a ballistic
00:03:32missile launched by the Houthi terrorist militia towards Khamis
00:03:36Mushait. In the region and among allies,
00:03:39several leaders have reacted, Israeli Prime Minister
00:03:43Benjamin Netanyahu, condemning a horrific terrorist
00:03:46attack. Donald Trump described these strikes
00:03:49as unacceptable, indicating that he would consider
00:03:53possible American participation in military
00:03:56operations against the Houthis.
00:04:00they preferred to go to Yemen rather than stay in their war-torn country, at
00:04:04Africa has least 139 migrants died in the shipwreck of an overloaded
00:04:07boat, it happened off Djibouti, 84
00:04:11people are missing, these are mainly Ethiopian
00:04:13migrants fleeing the war in the Tigray region,
00:04:17Alice Broga.
00:04:19The sea has washed up about ten bodies on this beach in
00:04:22Djibouti, north of Obock. The day before, a
00:04:25boat carrying 305 migrants capsized off the coast
00:04:29as they were heading towards Yemen to the east. According to
00:04:33local authorities, this is one of the deadliest shipwrecks
00:04:36ever recorded. Approximately 82 people survived
00:04:40and dozens are still missing. On board were
00:04:44women, men, and also children. So the IOM is
00:04:47working with local authorities, particularly the prefecture
00:04:50of Obock, which coordinates
00:04:53discussed in the aisles of the Paris operations on site. So the first survivors encountered were taken care of
00:04:56by the IOM. Despite the war raging in Yemen, many
00:05:00try to reach this country, hoping then to continue their journey to the
00:05:04rich Gulf countries. According to the International Organization for
00:05:08Migration, the majority were from Ethiopia.
00:05:11One of the survivors declared coming from the Tigray region in the north of the country
00:05:15where fighting resumed last month between government
00:05:18forces and rebel
00:05:21the year, 17,800 people have arrived in Djibouti from
00:05:25Ethiopia fleeing difficult living conditions.
00:05:28The IOM calls for strengthening their protection.
00:05:32We can no longer tolerate these deaths. Safe and legal
00:05:35routes save lives. I call on
00:05:38governments and donors to act before another
00:05:42disaster occurs. This migratory route, one of the most dangerous in the
00:05:46world, is also used in the other direction. More than
00:05:493,700 people fleeing Yemen have embarked for
00:05:52Djibouti until last week.
00:05:58Ukraine and Russia? Today, the Supreme Commander of NATO forces in
00:06:02Europe will speak. In Poland, he is American and must issue a warning
00:06:06to Moscow before his European partners, and for his part, Donald Trump
00:06:10seems to take everyone by surprise, by announcing on his social network a ceasefire
00:06:14between Ukraine and Russia, surprised Voladimir
00:06:17Zelensky says he is ready to accept it if Russia does the same. Alice
00:06:21Broga.
00:06:23It was from his social network True Social that Donald
00:06:27Trump announced it this Sunday. A bilateral energy
00:06:30ceasefire would have been accepted by Ukraine and
00:06:33Russia with immediate effect. The American
00:06:36president gave no details on the terms of this announced
00:06:40truce, but this statement comes the day after he criticized
00:06:44Zelensky, blaming Kyiv for its attacks on Russian
00:06:48refineries. These would, according to Donald Trump,
00:06:51increase diesel prices in the United States. He also
00:06:55stated that Ukraine should have a new president,
00:06:59which further increases the pressure on Voladimir
00:07:02Zelensky who does not rule out elections under certain
00:07:06conditions.
00:07:08We are ready for a ceasefire, we are ready to take any de-escalation
00:07:12step to spare the energy sector in a ceasefire from both sides
00:07:16and tell Putin to give us 2 months, 60 days of total
00:07:20ceasefire, 60 days to organize elections, of course,
00:07:23we will accept the choice of our people, whatever
00:07:26it may be,
00:07:29the tension was already very high on Friday when the American
00:07:32president announced an agreement between the United States and Russia for
00:07:36the massive purchase of Russian diesel with a
00:07:39relaxation of sanctions against Moscow. With this
00:07:43agreement, Donald Trump prioritizes the midterm
00:07:46elections, for which his party is struggling, particularly
00:07:49due to rising fuel prices. First,
00:07:53300,000 tons of diesel on the American and global
00:07:56market, a very small
00:07:59specialists, given American demand. Refineries are mostly
00:08:03disrupted by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and the war in the
00:08:06Middle East, initiated by the United States.
00:08:10So, with this
00:08:14energy ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, Donald Trump surprised everyone. It must be said that the US president has his own agenda
00:08:18with, well, soon the midterm
00:08:21elections and a political
00:08:25risk for the US president. Alice
00:08:27Broga: at the pump, prices are soaring and discontent
00:08:31is rising in the United States as the midterm
00:08:34elections approach. With no solution in the Middle East, Donald Trump
00:08:38hastily turns to Moscow by announcing a ceasefire.
00:08:42le feu.
00:08:50President Trump came to power with a mandate to work for the American
00:08:54people, and that's a good thing for the American people,
00:08:58to lower diesel prices. Since the
00:09:01beginning of the year, Russian diesel exports have fallen by about
00:09:0440%, due to the intensification of long-range Ukrainian
00:09:08drone strikes on refineries, as here in
00:09:11Moscow. Half of the country's refining capacity was
00:09:14even put out of service in August 2026, according to a Washington
00:09:18Post investigation. Damage that forced Moscow to import
00:09:22oil from India, to ration its use and freeze its
00:09:26diesel exports. The cessation of Ukrainian strikes would allow
00:09:30facilities to be repaired and production to resume. In
00:09:34anticipation, Trump lifted US sanctions on Russian diesel on Friday
00:09:37with an agreement allowing Russia to deliver 30,000 tons of
00:09:41diesel this October, 50,000 tons in November and
00:09:45up to 1 million thereafter, but for Ukraine, caught
00:09:48off guard by the American announcement, any ceasefire must involve an end
00:09:52to Russian shelling of power plants and heating
00:09:55facilities in the
00:09:56country.
00:09:59Ukraine is ready to refrain from striking Russian
00:10:02energy infrastructure and we count on the same
00:10:06disposition from Russia as well as on the agreement concluded by the US
00:10:09president on this matter. We welcome.
00:10:25In France, the first round of the presidential election is on April 18 and Raphaël
00:10:28Glucksmann will therefore be the candidate of the
00:10:32the alliance between the Socialist Party and Public Place, the MEP
00:10:35therefore largely wins the primary organized over the weekend, 66% of the votes
00:10:39far ahead of Olivier Faure 14%, a clear score
00:10:43but which does not hide the dissensions within the French left while the far
00:10:47right is predicted to win by all polls.
00:10:50It's a little over
00:10:536pm.
00:10:55Raphaël Glucksmann has just learned that he won the primary in the first
00:10:58round.
00:11:01A few moments later, he makes a triumphant arrival at the primary
00:11:05headquarters cheered by
00:11:06activists.
00:11:10A resounding victory, more than 66% of the 120,000 voters
00:11:14chose him. He is now officially the social-democratic camp's candidate
00:11:17for the presidential election.
00:11:19The Battle of France
00:11:22begins. I will therefore be
00:11:26in this campaign the candidate of the break with Macronism,
00:11:30the candidate of the break with the
00:11:33hegemony of Jean-Luc Mélenchon over the French
00:11:36left. For the activists, it is important to savor
00:11:39the victory and above all now turn the page on this
00:11:42primary. There were blows, it's clear,
00:11:46given by everyone, by Raphaël Glucksmann too, it must be said, it's true, but then we
00:11:49must, we must unite. I am extremely happy, extremely proud
00:11:53that the socialist family can unite tonight around a candidacy and
00:11:57above all a very clear victory. Coming in second,
00:12:00Olivier Faure, the first secretary of the Socialist Party, received just over
00:12:0414% of the votes. He commits to supporting the
00:12:07winner. Dear Raphael
00:12:11Luxman, you managed to convince a majority of
00:12:14voters and I respect the democratic
00:12:17process of the primary that I wanted too much not
00:12:20to accept it with wisdom. She
00:12:23dreamed of creating a surprise, but she finally finished 3rd with 7.6
00:12:27%. Ségolène Royal will also rally behind Raphaël
00:12:31Glucksmann, despite a disappointment, acknowledged. The
00:12:35trainee won the primary, yes, unfortunately, you still acknowledge
00:12:38this result, of course, I congratulate the winner, it's
00:12:42tradition. And Raphaël Luxman's campaign
00:12:45begins. Meanwhile, Jean-Luc Mélenchon spoke at a rally
00:12:51La France Insoumise played to a full house of 10,000 people. Few
00:12:55references to this primary. Jean-Luc Mélenchon dedicated his speech to the ongoing
00:12:58high school student movement, a movement he supports. He again promised to
00:13:02abolish "Parcoursup" and denounced the policies at the origin
00:13:05of this crisis in education. Listen,
00:13:09but this movement
00:13:12is the cry that announces the end of a
00:13:15period of which they have been the victims,
00:13:19no, it is not by chance or by oversight or by
00:13:23negligence that... secondary education establishments,
00:13:27general education and vocational education are in this state,
00:13:30not to mention primary education, this
00:13:33has been organized
00:13:36methodically
00:13:40for more than 15 years. In
00:13:43international news, also Nepal, where searches for missing persons have just
00:13:47resumed with sunrise in accessible areas. This Sunday, central
00:13:51Nepal was again a victim of torrential rains and floods
00:13:55of mud. At least five people are missing after the sudden rise of a
00:13:58river, a spectacular rise, only 6 weeks
00:14:01after the floods that killed more than 1,400 people and left 5,000
00:14:04missing. Thomas Cuni,
00:14:08a giant wave,
00:14:12unstoppable, a torrent of mud pours into
00:14:15this valley and sweeps everything in its
00:14:18path. In a few seconds, villages
00:14:21engulfed before helpless inhabitants.
00:14:34This sudden flood was caused by the rupture of a dam
00:14:37following a landslide. Nothing
00:14:40resists,
00:14:44not even this metal bridge, it gives way to the force of the
00:14:48current, seen from another angle we can distinguish
00:14:51the extent of the catastrophe.
00:14:56The disaster occurred in northern
00:14:59Nepal, in the Gorkha
00:15:02region. Residents had time to take
00:15:05refuge on higher ground. Here was our village, it was a
00:15:09small hamlet, everyone was screaming, we took refuge in the
00:15:13mountains.
00:15:15Here in the center of the image, other survivors,
00:15:19very quickly, the army was deployed to rescue them, helicopters fly
00:15:23over a devastated area,
00:15:27entire sections of cliffs have
00:15:28collapsed. We can clearly see here
00:15:32the trajectory of the mudslide, according to
00:15:36an initial assessment by the authorities, at least 5 people
00:15:39are missing.
00:15:42Can French and European car manufacturers compete with
00:15:46the Chinese industry? This question will be much discussed in the aisles of the Paris Motor Show
00:15:50inaugurated today by Emmanuel Macron. The head of state
00:15:54will emphasize vehicle electrification, European preference, and innovation.
00:15:57On Friday, Beijing agreed
00:16:01to curb its hybrid car exports to the European Union.
00:16:05However, are European manufacturers capable of resisting
00:16:08this competition, and their dependence on China? We'll see that with
00:16:12Anaïs Sanquet, Audi Lengueval, and Alain
00:16:14Locacio.
00:16:17Brand new Chinese cars, as far as the eye can see,
00:16:20ready to be exported worldwide,
00:16:22images that make Europe
00:16:26tremble and illustrate the rise of China,
00:16:29which has become the great leader of the automotive
00:16:33industry. In China, factories are running at full
00:16:36capacity. 34 million vehicles manufactured in
00:16:402025, it is the country that produces the most
00:16:43each year, far ahead of the United States and
00:16:47Japan. In 15 years, sales of Chinese
00:16:51cars have jumped by 152
00:16:53%. And facing a saturated domestic
00:16:56market, Beijing is now looking to conquer
00:17:00Europe. Today, we probably have in China
00:17:03the means to manufacture something like 40 or 45 million cars,
00:17:08so with their factories, they could largely satisfy all our
00:17:11needs, and therefore they could completely kill our
00:17:14industry. In France, Chinese dealerships
00:17:18are multiplying, a hundred for BYD
00:17:21alone, and in Europe, the market share of
00:17:25Chinese brands has increased from 0.5% in
00:17:282021 to more than 6% in
00:17:312025. Beijing even wants to go further
00:17:35by producing its vehicles directly on our
00:17:39continent, numerous projects have been launched, a
00:17:42factory has just been built in
00:17:45Hungary. To counter this offensive, the European
00:17:49Union retaliates and threatens to increase customs
00:17:51duties, a method that is starting to pay off, it has just
00:17:55secured a first gesture from Beijing. We have
00:17:59reached an agreement in principle to moderate China's hybrid vehicle
00:18:02exports to the European Union.
00:18:06Reducing Chinese competition, a matter of survival, especially for
00:18:10German Volkswagen, the group announced the
00:18:13elimination of 50,000 jobs in Germany
00:18:16by 2030. For its part, France is betting on
00:18:20electric to resist, with flagship
00:18:22vehicles like the Renault 5, entirely produced in
00:18:26France. Today, French manufacturers have rather chosen
00:18:30France for these new vehicles that correspond
00:18:33to the future of production, so yes, with
00:18:36the electric pressure, indeed,
00:18:38manufacturers have bet on France. In
00:18:42this global competition, the United States has made a radical
00:18:45choice. Since 2024, they impose 100%
00:18:48customs duties on imports of Chinese electric
00:18:52cars. So, the Paris Motor Show will be followed, especially with our
00:18:55teams on site at the inauguration this morning. A look at our headlines
00:18:59now and in the news, the Houthi movement from Yemen that struck Saudi Arabia all
00:19:02weekend, the latest drones and missiles hit Riyadh and Dammam airports
00:19:06overnight, you see these impressive images, at least one dead
00:19:10and 11 injured, this adds to the 13 dead and 309 injured over the
00:19:13weekend. Donald Trump does not rule out support for the Saudis against
00:19:17the Houthis. And then Raphaël Glucksmann largely won the primary of the
00:19:20social-democratic left. The MEP is designated
00:19:23as a candidate from the first round with 66% of the votes, far ahead of his
00:19:27opponents. With the leader of Place Publique, the Socialist Party will therefore
00:19:31not have a candidate from its ranks to represent it in the presidential election in the first
00:19:34round on April 18. And then French and European

00:25:00century. The stones then served as a currency
00:25:04of exchange.
