Public health catastrophe in Gaza imminent, World Health Organization warns – BBC News

Published

on



The World Health Organization has said Gaza is in an imminent public health catastrophe and that the mass displacement of people has led to overcrowding and a lack of sanitation.

The United States said it’s optimistic the number of aid trucks entering Gaza will soon increase to about one hundred a day.

The Israel Defence Force has reported engaging in – what it described as – “fierce battles” with Hamas.

Thousands of buildings have been destroyed in Gaza and people have little access to water, food, fuel and other essentials.

    What is the difference between israel and Hitler, Israel is now doing the same thing that Hitler had done, hospitals, schools, religious places, refuge camps are dropping bombs and missiles everywhere. In which innocent children, women, doctors, teachers, reporters and the public are all being killed. Western media and the whole world is keeping silence on this. Have they also become slaves of Israel?

    (Daniel 9:27 was fulfilled on August 13 2023 also when the woman began travailing in birth to fulfill the time of the gentiles for the mystery of Revelation 12 to be completed, Daniel 12:1 next, three riders released within 2020 and 2023. These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear, blessed is he who understands.)

    “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.

    “And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.

    “All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.

    “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.

    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.

    “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 3 to 6.

    “Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.”

    Acts, chapter 8, verse 22.

    “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3.

    “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

    “After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.”

    Hosea, chapter 6, verse 2.

    “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 8.

    “knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 to 4.

    “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

    First Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 3.

    “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

    First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verse 16 to 17.

    “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 52.

    “I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 17, verse 34 to 36.

    Palestinian terrorists are using human shields.

    These Palestinian criminals are reported to have used hospitals, schools, residential complexes and shopping malls to operate their attacks.

    These Palestinians are occupying the 12 Tribes of Israel land they stole thousands upon thousands years ago as Philistines before the Byzantine rulers changed the uncircumcised Philistine to just Palestine.

    Many in the comments are being scathing of Hamas for it's terrorist attack on Israel, killing well over a thousand Israelis, injuring so many more, and holding hundreds of captives. Absolutely justifiable, impossible to say anything in defense of Hamas for it's atrocities. But since the attacks, Israel has also been committing gross atrocities and war crimes. Israel has been killing hundreds of Gaza's children a day… well over THREE THOUSAND adolescents and children and babies in Gaza who were alive 3 weeks ago are now dead from indiscriminate bombing (not counting the thousands injured, many drastically). That is, by international law, a huge war crime. Israel has targeted medical facilities, mosques, schools. Israel has used white phosphorus munitions, and used them not to obscure battlefield movement of troops, but have used them to cause drastic burn injuries to Gazan civilians. Also a major war crime is the blockade of food, water and electricity to 2.3 million people… Only 15,000 of Gaza's residents are members of the Hamas militia. Punishing the entire population is against international law, it is against the Geneva Conventions. Normally Gaza needs hundreds of trucks of supplies (food, medicine, other rudimentary supplies) per day. Israel has been allowing in only 5% of this requirement. So a starvation campaign is well underway. All Gaza's water treatment facilities are down, bombed in many cases, power out to the rest, so Gaza has no sanitation, by design… this is a huge war-crime (just as similar Russian actions in Ukraine last winter are war crimes, and attacks there against civilians are atrocities, though both Ukraine and Russia fully at war). By definitions held globally, such actions targeting civilian populations are uncontestably war crimes,… you cannot target civilians, not under any circumstances, there are no end-arounds with respect to that legal fact… The water treatment plant outage there is going to result in a cholera epidemic This is very well understood, (just as unrest and failure of services in Haiti resulted in a major cholera outbreak there in recent years). These are all drastic war crimes. Israel IS culpable for them, as Hamas is for it's war crimes. But NOT the civilian population of Gaza !

    The live BBC breakfast show mean two million Gazan's were reliant on aid before Hamas carried out their massacre on innocent men, women, children and babies on the 7th October. That's the reason for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza now

Published

on



One person has been killed and 11 injured in a second strike on the international airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, officials have said.

A Saudi military spokesman said a projectile had hit King Khalid International Airport on Sunday, causing a fire in a passenger hall. Saudi Arabia’s civil aviation authority said in a statement that one person, a Pakistani resident, had been killed in the attack.

It comes a day after a strike on the same airport killed 13 people and injured 308 others.

The Houthis in Yemen said they were behind them and warned airlines and passengers against using Saudi Arabian airports and airspace.

Inside the secret factories making Britain’s fake cigarettes – Behind The Investigation | BBC News

Published

on



One in every six cigarettes smoked in the UK is counterfeit.
In this episode of BBC News Behind the Investigation, Melanie Stewart-Smith talks to File on 4 Investigates reporter Jane Deith about how the team uncovered the global criminal networks flooding Britain with fake cigarettes, and the human cost behind every cheap pack.

Jane explains how the team traced the supply chain from secret factories in Belgium to corner shops, minimarts and cash and carries across the UK.

We also look at why gangs are moving from drugs to fake cigarettes. A former senior Europol official says they now make as much money as they do from drugs, with far lower prison sentences if they’re caught. The profits are being used to fund weapons, people smuggling and even terrorism.

Do people really know what they’re funding when they buy cheap cigarettes?
