00:00I am delighted to meet you for this African Press Review on the Pan-African.
00:13Let's start with the Community for the Development of South Africa,
00:17which will hold an extraordinary summit of heads of state and government on November 20, 2024 in Harare, Zimbabwe,
00:24to discuss the security situation in the region, especially in RDC.

00:31Presided by the head of state of Zimbabwe and current president of the Community for the Development of South Africa,
00:38the summit will assess the progress of the mission deployed in December 2023
00:44to restore peace and stability in eastern RDC.
00:47The work will be preceded by a summit of the TROICA,
00:51the Cooperation Agency on Politics, Defense and Security,

00:59The community, which includes 16 member states,
01:03works for economic development and security in Central Africa,
01:08concludes the Pan-African website.
01:11Afrique.com informs us that Russia and Rwanda have signed a historic agreement
01:16exempting the holders of diplomatic and service passports from visas
01:21at the Russian-African Partnership Forum.
01:23This engagement aims to strengthen bilateral relations
01:27and facilitate diplomatic and economic exchanges between the two nations.
01:32For Moscow, this strategic partnership with Kigali, a model of governance in East Africa,
01:38opens opportunities in key sectors such as energy and infrastructure.
01:43If we believe it, the information site of this agreement illustrates the Russian strategy
01:49of diversification of African alliances
01:52against the competition of Western and Chinese powers.
01:58Going to Burundi, where the torch of Peace 2024 was welcomed in a festive atmosphere
02:04in Rue Mange, reaffirming the commitment of Burundians
02:08for peace and socio-economic emancipation.
02:11This is what Burundi Forum reveals in its columns.
02:14Before, the event of community development works
02:18allowed to lay the pavements in the meeting room of the local military corps.
02:24Governor Leonard Niyonsaba, accompanied by local leaders,
02:29received the torch in front of a large crowd.
02:32Initiated in 2006, the torch caravan of peace symbolizes every year
02:37the peaceful coexistence in all of Burundi, notes the online newspaper.
02:43Let's finish with this information on measles.
02:46According to the World Health Organization,
02:48more than 10 million measles cases were recorded in 2023,
02:53a 20% increase compared to the previous year.
02:57It's on the front page of Africa News.
02:59This highly contagious disease caused more than 107,000 deaths,
03:04mainly in children, due to a drop in vaccination coverage.
03:09According to our colleagues,
03:11only 74% of children received their second dose of vaccine,
03:16while a rate of 85% is necessary to avoid epidemics.
03:20The goal of eradicating measles by 2030 is now seriously threatened.
03:26This is where our African Press Review ends.
03:29Thank you for listening.
