Heart condition in some young people linked to vaccine
Some teenagers and young adults who received COVID-19 vaccines experienced heart inflammation, a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory group said, recommending further study of the rare condition.
Top U.S. health officials recommended further study into a rare heart condition possibly linked to COVID-19 vaccines.
A statement dated May 17 from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said some teens and young adults, mostly male, had developed an inflammation of the heart muscle called myocarditis after receiving their vaccine.
The CDC added that the condition often goes away on its own and the number of cases so far have not been cause for major concern.
They did not say how many people had been affected, but said cases typically occurred within four days after receiving mRNA vaccines, without specifying which.
The U.S. granted emergency authorization to two mRNA vaccines - from Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech.
In April, Israel's Health Ministry started examining similar cases tied to Pfizer's vaccine.
It has yet to draw any conclusions, though most of the cases in Israel were reported among young adults under the age of 30.
Pfizer at the time said it had not found a causal link.
Neither Pfizer nor Moderna responded immediately to requests for comment on Saturday.

U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy
made the declaration in a new advisory released on June 25, CNN reports.
It is the first time that a surgeon general
has focused on gun violence's "profound consequences" in a national publication. .
Over the last decade or two,
this problem has been worsening and we
have now reached the point where gun violence is the leading cause of death among kids and teens – the leading cause of death. , Dr. Vivek Murthy, to CNN's John Berman.
That is something that we should
never take as the new normal.
There’s nothing normal about that, Dr. Vivek Murthy, to CNN's John Berman.
According to Murthy, the advisory is intended to take the polarizing issue of firearms "out of the realm of politics and put it into the realm of public health, which is where it belongs.".

Historically, we have seen how the
release of Surgeon General reports on
public health issues such as the dangers
of smoking ignited a wave of policy,
legal, and public health initiatives.., Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
and chief medical officer, via CNN.
... that saved countless American
lives and in this case led to
deprogramming our nation from
the tobacco industry’s lies. , Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
and chief medical officer, via CNN.
We hope this report will have
the same resounding impact on
the gun violence epidemic, Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
and chief medical officer, via CNN.
In 2022, over 48,000 people in America died from gun-related injuries, according to CDC data.
In the new advisory, Dr. Murthy said, "It is up to
us to take on this generational challenge with
the urgency and clarity the moment demands.".
The safety and well-being
of our children and future generations are at stake, Dr. Vivek Murthy, via advisory

e-cigarette products, manufactured by only three
companies, to be marketed and sold to consumers

In a significant national security development, the Israel Security Agency (ISA) and Israel Police announced on Tuesday the arrest of three Israeli citizens accused of collaborating with the Iranian regime to undermine the country's security. The arrests follow a series of covert actions reportedly orchestrated through encrypted messaging platforms. One of the suspects, Elimelech Stern, a 21-year-old ultra-Orthodox resident of Beit Shemesh near Jerusalem, has been charged with illegal contact with a foreign agent. The charges were filed at the Jerusalem District Court and reported by Israel’s Ynet news outlet.

The Gaza Civil Defense has reported the loss of 79 aid workers since the onset of the Israeli offensive in early October, with the latest casualty occurring after an Israeli strike on a humanitarian safe zone at the al-Mawasi camp, which killed at least 90 Palestinians and wounded 300. This attack is considered the deadliest in weeks. The conflict escalated on October 7 following a surprise operation by Hamas, leading Israel to launch a full-scale war on Gaza and enforce a near-total siege, severely restricting essential supplies. The offensive has resulted in at least 38,664 Palestinian deaths and 89,097 injuries, worsening the humanitarian crisis. Limited access to food, medicine, and water has intensified civilian suffering and complicated rescue efforts. Despite international calls for ceasefires and aid, efforts at the UN Security Council to address the conflict have been hindered by vetoes, highlighting the urgent need for resolution.

Iran’s interim foreign minister, Ali Bagheri Kani, has laid the blame for Israel’s ongoing actions in the Gaza Strip squarely on the United States, emphasising the importance of multilateralism to achieve global peace and stability. His remarks came upon his arrival in New York on Monday night to participate in two critical debates at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). The debates, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, will focus on the topics of multilateralism and Palestine, respectively.

Yemeni forces conducted three pro-Palestinian operations, including a joint effort with Iraqi fighters. They targeted ships in the Red Sea and Mediterranean using drones, missiles, and boats. These actions enforce a ban on vessels heading to Israeli-occupied territories and respond to recent Israeli airstrikes in Gaza. The operations demonstrate Yemen's sophisticated military capabilities and international cooperation.
