Israel has not provided evidence to support UNRWA claims, report says: Independent review commissioned by UN says relief agency needs to improve neutrality

ft.com/content/f6e67368-15b5-4b8f-92f0-a349810411bc

Quick Glance: UNRWA Report Highlights Lack of Evidence for Israel's Employee Militancy Claims

An independent review commissioned by the United Nations found that Israel has not provided evidence to support its accusation that a 'significant' number of employees of the U.N. relief agency for Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip are members of terrorist organizations.

The review, led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, revealed that UNRWA 'plays an indispensable and irreplaceable role in the region,' despite issues such as employees expressing political views and offices being used for 'political or military purposes'.

The review listed recommendations to enhance UNRWA operations, including improved training, more rigorous employee screening, and a thorough review of all textbooks and supplements.

Concerns were raised regarding the screening of UNRWA employees and the content of textbooks, while Israel has yet to provide evidence to support the claim that a significant number of UNRWA employees are members of terrorist organizations.

Quick Glance: British Law on Deportation of Asylum Seekers to Rwanda

The new British deportation law aims to curb illegal migration and secure the reelection of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

However, experts doubt the effectiveness of the law in stopping illegal migration to the UK.

Rishi Sunak is under significant pressure due to political challenges in the election year, including inflation and healthcare issues.

The Rwanda law intends to deport migrants without valid papers to Rwanda, although the efficacy of the law is being questioned.

282 million people faced acute hunger in 2023, with the worst famine in Gaza: UN report

financialexpress.com/world-news/282-million-people-faced-acute-hunger-in-2023-with-the-worst-famine-in-gaza-un-report/3468067/

Quick Glance: Over 280 Million People Worldwide Affected by Severe Hunger

Nearly 282 million individuals across various countries faced acute hunger in 2023, with the war-torn Gaza Strip having the highest number of people experiencing famine.

The United Nations report revealed that 24 million more people were dealing with acute food shortages compared to 2022, primarily due to a significant decline in food security, especially in Gaza and Sudan.

Of those on the brink of famine - 577,000 individuals - over 80% were located in Gaza, while numerous others in nations like South Sudan, Burkina Faso, Somalia, and Mali were also enduring extreme hunger.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres labeled the report as 'a reckoning of human failure' and emphasized the need for an urgent response to address the root causes of acute hunger and malnutrition, as well as overhaul food supply systems.

Quick Glance: Combatting Malaria: Challenges and Solutions

Progress in reducing malaria has stalled in recent years, especially in African regions. Pregnant women, young children, and other vulnerable groups continue to have limited access to malaria services.

Infants and young children are disproportionately affected by malaria, especially in poorer households in sub-Saharan Africa. Pregnant women are at increased risk of malaria due to immunity loss.

Refugees, migrants, and indigenous peoples are also at higher risk of malaria and often lack access to necessary services.

Climate change and humanitarian emergencies contribute to making vulnerable populations more susceptible to malaria. Measures like combating discrimination and integrating malaria control interventions into universal health coverage can help achieve a malaria-free world.
