UN reports uptick in preventable diseases in Gaza due to Israeli blockade

The UN’s (OCHA) has issued a warning that Gaza’s population is becoming more and more deadly because of the lack of desperately needed medicine and clean water.

More than 19, 000 cases of acute watery diarrhoea have been reported in the past two weeks, according to an OCHA statement on Thursday, along with over 200 cases of acute jaundice syndrome and bloody diarrhoea.

The organization added that “these outbreaks are directly related to the lack of clean water and sanitation in Gaza, underscoring the urgent need for fuel, medical supplies, and water, sanitation, and hygiene items to prevent further collapse of the public health system.”

The desalination plants and water system in Gaza have been rendered useless by Israel’s blockade of fuel entry.

Gaza has been completely destroyed by the Israeli military, almost entirely displaced, and placed under suffocating siege. In addition to the dire humanitarian conditions, Israeli forces continue to kill dozens of Palestinians every day in Gaza.

The Israeli campaign was referred to as a genocide by leading human rights organizations and UN experts.

After a strike on Deir el-Balah, central Gaza, OCHA reported on Thursday that more than 20 people had died and about 70 had been hurt.

At least 71 people were killed in the Israeli attacks on Thursday, according to medical sources told Al Jazeera Arabic.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 56, 259 people have died and 132, 458 have been wounded since Israel’s war on Gaza started in October 2023.

The Israeli government announced in May that it would allow aid to re-enter the enclave following a more than two-month blockade of essential goods entering Gaza.

However, aid entering has been slowed down due to Israeli restrictions, with aid organizations calling it a “drop in the ocean.”

The United States and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which have been criticized by aid organizations as a “weaponization” of humanitarian goods, have provided the majority of the aid that has been provided.

In a video message on Wednesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his defense minister, Israel Katz, announced that the army was being asked to create a new aid delivery strategy for Gaza after masked men were seen on top of aid trucks in northern Gaza.

Palestinian clan leaders without affiliation with Hamas claim that the masked men were preventing the truck from being looted, despite Israel’s claim that they were Hamas members.

UPDATED: President Tinubu Meets With Wike, Fubara, Rivers Lawmakers

Governor Siminalayi Fubara, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, Rivers State House of Assembly Speaker Martins Amaewhule, and assembly members met with President Bola Tinubu on Thursday.

The President met with the parties at the meeting, according to Channels TV, and on March 18 the state declared a state of emergency.

Governor Fubara will meet with the President twice, the first of whom declared state emergency rule while suspending him, his deputy, Mrs. Ngozi Odu, and the Rivers Assembly.

President Tinubu attributed his actions, among other things, to the state Assembly’s inability to work together and the state’s security situation.

However, the results of Thursday’s meeting show that efforts to end the region’s protracted political crisis have come to an end. One photo shows the President with the governor and minister all smiles.

At their Thursday meeting, FCT Minister Wike, President Tinubu (center), and Governor Fubara (left) all chuckle.

In another image, the governor and the FCT Minister are seen circling the governor’s office alongside the speaker and other state legislators.

Although the president and the parties who met with him on Thursday night did not comment on the meeting, there are indications that the oil-rich Rivers State may be on the verge of ending.

Handshakes, smiles, and photos were captured by the parties, who have been at odds with each other for months and have been trading allegations.

In a nationwide broadcast on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, Tinubu declared a state of emergency in Rivers State, suspended governor Siminalayi Fubara and his deputy, as well as the members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, for six months in the first instance, at the height of the political conflict between the Fubara and Amaewhule camps.

According to Tinubu, who relyed on Section 305 of the 1999 Constitution to support his position, he can’t continue to observe the political deterioration in Rivers.

Vice Admiral Ibok-ete Ibas (rtd), a retired naval chief, was immediately appointed and sworn in as the state’s sole administrative in the oil-rich Niger Delta.

Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, Rotimi Amaechi, Atedo Peterside, Nasir El-Rufai, Femi Falana, the Labour Party (LP), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the Nigerian Bar Association, the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), among others, expressly rejected and condemned the suspension of Fubara and other democratically elected representatives.

The immediate-past governor of Rivers State, Wike, and his smitten ex-political godson Fubara, have fought for two years over the state’s political system.

Fubara’s alleged failure to implement a Supreme Court decision regarding the state’s political situation was the target of a threat from the Amaewhule camp, which is a Wike-backed organization.

On May 14, 2013, Goodluck Jonathan imposed an emergency rule in Nigeria on all of Borno, Yobe, and Adamawa, the last of which a president did.

First names confirmed for Team GB at Winter Olympics

Jennifer Dodds is aiming for back-to-back Winter Olympic gold medals, with the curling teams the first officially confirmed Team GB athletes for Milan-Cortina 2026.

And, with a silver medal on their debut, Bruce Mouat and his rink are aiming to go one better in Italy next year.

Mouat, along with Grant Hardie, Bobby Lammie and Hammy McMillan Jr, were narrowly beaten by Sweden in the 2022 final.

Dodds teamed up with Eve Muirhead, Vicky Wright and Hailey Duff in Beijing as Britain topped the podium for the first time in 20 years.

This time, she will be joined by Rebecca Morrison, Sophie Sinclair and skip Sophie Jackson.

“Winning gold last time was a dream come true, so I’m excited to get back there, obviously with a new team,” Dodds told BBC Scotland.

“We’ve been building a lot over the last couple of seasons and I’m excited to see where the trajectory of our performance can go over the next eight months.

“I’ve known a couple of the girls for quite a while, but that’s the thing, we probably had to build that teamwork, build the friendships and I feel like we’ve done that really well. I think you can see in our performances, our teamwork has improved, and a big part of that is communication and understanding each other.”

Mouat’s Scotland rink won World Championship gold for a second time this year, having been European champions on four occasions.

Now the Edinburgh curler wants to add Olympic gold to their list of achievements.

Mouat and Dodds will team up again to compete in the mixed doubles, having lost out in the 2022 bronze medal match.

“We’re friends first and foremost, but we are team-mates as well,” explained Dodds. “He can be intense on the ice but he’s one of the funniest people I know off the ice. He always puts a smile on my face.

“We had the World Championships in April, and we got silver there, and I felt like that was kind of where we were, back to where we were from a couple of years ago. What we’re wanting to go and strive for, is that gold medal at the Olympics.”

Mouat added: “Jen and I are great friends and we have been since we were about eight or nine. It’s just so much fun to get to go back to one of the pinnacles of our sport and play with someone that you’ve played with for such a long time.

“In Beijing we were very close to winning a medal. We were up in our semi-final and then we ended up just throwing it away unfortunately, but we learned a lot from that experience.”
