Polio case in Gaza prompts UN appeal for ceasefire to roll out ... out vaccines

Gaza has reported its first case of polio in 25 years, sparking a UN appeal for a ceasefire to carry out mass vaccinations. The case involves a 10-month-old child who had not been vaccinated. The UN is calling for two seven-day vaccination drives to administer 1.6 million doses of the nOPV2 vaccine to 640,000 children. The situation in Gaza is dire, with its water and sewage infrastructure destroyed, leading to a rise in diseases. Currently, Pakistan and Afghanistan are the only countries with ongoing polio transmission. The UN is coordinating efforts with the WHO, UNICEF, and UNRWA to ensure the smooth delivery and administration of vaccines.

Growing Pressure on Israel in Ceasefire Negotiations in the Gaza ... Gaza Strip

Israel is facing increasing pressure to reach an agreement as ceasefire negotiations in the Gaza Strip resume in Qatar. The UK and France have joined the negotiations, with Israel calling for support from Western allies in the event of an Iranian attack. The recent escalation in the Middle East has led to threats of retaliation from Iran and the Lebanese Hezbollah militia, blaming Israel for recent attacks. US President Joe Biden believes that a ceasefire agreement could prevent further escalation and is optimistic about the negotiations. The Hamas representative has not taken part in the talks but is willing to engage indirectly if there are new commitments from Israel. The proposed deal is based on Biden's three-phase plan, including a temporary ceasefire, a withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, and a prisoner exchange. The situation remains tense, with concerns about the humanitarian and health crisis in the region.
