from Wikipedia:

"Le Point is a Canadian television newsmagazine series, which aired on Radio-Canada from 1983 to 2006. The program, which aired following Le Téléjournal weeknights, explored the news in depth with interviews and documentary reports.

The program was introduced in 1983, one year after the network's English counterpart CBC Television introduced the similar series The Journal as a complement to its main newscast The National."
 
The sounds are more like what you hear in the field recorded with portable WWII sound equipment. Somewhat like what you hear from the "World at War" series.
Artillery, rifle fire, shriek of incoming shells, diesel engines Naval commands(?).
I'll try making a log of what is on there. Lots of dead space between sound segments.
