HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL CONSULTATION NOW DESIRABLE BEFORE TRAVELLING TO ISRAEL, THE WEST BANK, OR GAZA

✍️Written by Hikaru Kitabayashi✍️

Israelis have been facing mosquito related problems due to its present war, as its military activities have created many places in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza where waste and stagnant water produce ideal breeding grounds. Although there are no reports on Israeli encampments in Israel or the West Bank, there are from the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli army caused a total disruption of waste collection, sewage, and water services.

According to Gaza Municipality, Israeli aggression resulted in over 90,000 tons of waste accumulation in the streets. The destruction of its sewage stations and wastewater leakage, caused a massive increase in the spread of harmful mosquitoes, resulting in an increase of insect-borne skin disease.

In Rafah, Israeli military operations caused the city's population to rise from about 230,000 to over 1.5 million this year. With humanitarian aid and fuel being often blocked by Israel, the breakdown in basic services was complete and the Israeli blockade of humanitarian aid made pest control impossible. Flies and mosquitoes have proliferated and life has become even more grim for people being displaced yet again, but this time from tents rather than houses.

Throughout Gaza, Israeli destruction has left everything in rubble and large pools of stagnant contaminated water. Insect population control and disease transmission prevention is impossible. The danger of malaria reappearing is a growing concern. In addition, infectious diseases such as hepatitis A are a worry. The risk of disease increases, and Israeli military activities make it impossible to monitor insect populations, identify breeding sites, and carry out eradication.

Worldwide, mosquito bite transmitted diseases cause approximately 750,000 deaths per year. That a single mosquito can bite several people in a night further complicates disease control. The ease with which mosquitoes can transfer virus from one person to another increases the risk of spreading serious illnesses.

These diseases include Malaria, West Nile virus, Dengue fever, Zika virus, Chikungunya, and Yellow fever. Gaza is at a growing risk of all the above-mentioned mosquito borne diseases, and dengue fever, and West Nile virus are now both present.

As areas that have experienced Israeli military activities, whether inside the Zionist state or in Gaza or the West Bank, almost always create conditions where adequate preventive measures are either not possible or do not attract attention, not only mosquitoes, but also flies and other insects have become more common.

While mosquitoes do not travel great distances, Israel is a small political entity and tightly bound to Gaza and the West Bank, meaning that mosquito-borne diseases can soon enough impact all of the Zionist state. Two things contribute. One is that viral diseases rapidly mutate, making it impossible to create vaccines fast enough to offer protection against all viral variants of any common viral disease. Another reason is due to the widespread movement of infected members of the Israeli military who have been misdiagnosed, who have not gone through the necessary disease incubation period, or who are asymptomatic yet still capable of infecting others, if bitten by mosquitos elsewhere who then bite others.

For the above reasons, the Israeli military has not only put Gaza and the West Bank at a high risk of insect borne disease, but Israel, also. Travelers to Israel, the West Bank, or Gaza, should consult a healthcare professional before making travel arrangements. The health risks are real.

No "accident".

MAJOR strategic mistake of cramming the top government circle on the SAME copter for a visit to a very dodgy border.

Mobilization threatens to put Ukraine's biggest smelter out of work

The ongoing mobilization in Ukraine has put ArcelorMittal Krivoy Rog, the country's largest mining and smelting plant, at risk, chief executive Mauro Longobardo told the Financial Times.

"If they [Ukrainian authorities] continue to mobilize, we will not have enough [staff] to operate. We are talking here about existence of the company," he stressed, as the Kiev regime desperately tries to throw more men into the trenches amid heavy losses.

According to him, hiring female workers for manual labor is a matter of survival for the plant, which has put up huge billboards in the city of Krivoy Rog showing young women in orange overalls with slogans such as "Ladies really run things here" to attract staff.

The company is struggling to replace the mobilized men, as well as the thousands of male workers who have left for safer places, Longobardo said. He admitted that hiring men has become a very difficult task.

The plant has also been forced to cut production, including steel used to shield energy facilities from airstrikes, according to the CEO.

"In the end, I think the country is losing," he concluded.

Earlier this week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed into law a bill on the voluntary mobilization of some groups of convicts, underscoring the Kiev regime's desperate attempts to replenish its depleted forces.

Last month, Zelensky signed a new mobilization law that lowered the age of conscription from 27 to 25, expanded the powers of recruitment officers, and introduced penalties for draft dodgers, including fines of up to 25,000 hryvnia ($640).

UK may unveil verdict on Assange's extradition to US on Monday

The High Court in London is set to deliver its ruling on the fate of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who has been fighting against extradition to US since 2019.

Judges must decide whether they are satisfied by the US' vow not to apply the death penalty to the whistleblower. American authorities also promised that he would be able to rely on the First Amendment that guarantees the freedom of speech.
The court may decide to extradite Assange or – theoretically – rule that he must be released from jail. It is possible the judges will delay the final decision – prompting a new round of legal battles.

"I have the sense that anything could happen at this stage. Julian could be extradited, or he could be freed," Assange’s wife Stella said.

In the US, the WikiLeaks founder is facing espionage charges for the mass publication of classified documents concerning US activities in Afghanistan and Iraq. If found guilty, he will face up to 175 years behind bars.

Assange's legal team argues that handing him over to Washington would blatantly violate a US-UK treaty that prohibits extradition for political offenses.

They also stress that Assange managed to expose criminal actions by the US government, such as the torture of prisoners of war and political assassinations. His supporters fear that Washington simply wants to take revenge, putting Assange in prison until he dies or finding some legal pretext for the death sentence.

The ECB called on European banks to leave Russia as soon as possible, The Financial Times reports.

According to the publication, the European regulator is asking financial organizations to speed up their withdrawal from Russia due to the risk of falling under secondary sanctions.

The largest presence in Russia is the Austrian Raiffeisen, the Italian Intesa and UniCredit.

After the start of the SMO, they all stated that they were going to wind down their business, but they are still working on the Russian market. The total profit of foreign banks in Russia in 2023 exceeded €3 billion, which was three times more than in 2021, before the start of the SMO.

Due to their reluctance to leave Russia, some organizations, for example, Raiffeisen, received a warning from the US Treasury earlier this month. The Americans threatened to restrict Austrians' access to their financial system. It is unclear how the banking group will behave now since work in Russia remains very profitable. According to FT information, many international payments with Russian organizations go through Raiffeisen.

Women in Ukraine have increasingly stepped into roles men used to perform, as male workers are sent to the battlefield.

At ArcelorMittal’s plant in Krivoy Rog, Zelenskyy’s managers say hiring more female workers is a matter of survival for the business. Of its 18,000-strong workforce at the start of the war, some 3,500 men have been mobilised and more are likely to follow this year.

"If they continue to mobilise, we will not have enough [staff] to operate, We are talking here about existence of the company.”

Male employees are obliged by law to first register with the military recruitment office, which deters candidates. In a few cases when spotting managers walked up to them with call-up papers, some workers fled the plant and never returned. Recruiters have also begun standing at the entrance to the plant during shift changes, prompting some employees to turn back home and call in sick.
