Farming while taking into account plants, animals, humans and environment… That is the concept of agro-ecology. In Togo, a training centre is teaching just that with eco-friendly farming techniques to build resilience against the challenges of climate change. FRANCE 24's team on the ground reports.
Since October 7 and the start of the war between Israel and Hamas, tempers have been flaring at the Imelda Institute in Molenbeek, where 8 out of 10 pupils are Muslim. To avoid any radicalisation of the debate within his school, the principal decided to recruit one of his former pupils, a Palestinian who arrived in Belgium in 2000, to speak exclusively about the Middle East conflict. The young man's message is not one of resistance or hatred against Israel, but of reconciliation. Alix Le Bourdon and Fernande Van Tets report.
The northern French village of Montcavrel in the Pas-de-Calais region has been flooded after a night of torrential rain. The flooding follows an already destructive rise in water levels on 7 November. Dozens of towns were affected by flooding, leaving roads sometimes only accessible by boat and dozens of schools closed. OF THE VILLAGE OF MONTCAVREL FLOODED
The counteroffensive launched by Ukrainian forces has been slow to show concrete results so far.
Within an hour, the Bedouin village of Wadi al-Seeq in the occupied West Bank had been completely emptied, its 200 residents fleeing on foot with their sheep and goats. On October 12, five days after the start of the war between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers, residents say dozens of Israelis turned up at the village and gave them an hour to leave their land, among them settlers, soldiers and police. The Israeli army had no immediate comment on the incident, despite several AFP requests. Since the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked southern Israel on 7 October, more than 120 Palestinians have been killed across the occupied West Bank where violence had already been spiralling. Even before the Gaza war, the death toll in the Palestinian territory had reached its highest levels since at least 2005.
