UN Urges Ceasefire to Vaccinate Gaza's Children: Polio Threat Grows Amid Relentless Bombing

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, is making an urgent plea for a humanitarian pause in Gaza to conduct a mass polio vaccination campaign.

The situation is dire as bombs continue to fall, making it impossible to protect the children.

The UN stresses that under the current conditions of ongoing strikes and violence, vital vaccination efforts cannot proceed.

Will the world respond to this call for a ceasefire, or will Gaza's children be left unprotected against the threat of polio?

Watch the full video to understand the critical need for a 'polio pause' in the war-torn region.

Hamas Betrayed? Netanyahu Postpones Prisonersā€™ Release Citing ā€˜Humiliatingā€™ Hostage Handovers

Hamas Betrayed? Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has indefinitely postponed the release of Palestinian detainees, citing Hamasā€™ ā€œhumiliatingā€ hostage handover ceremonies as a violation of the ceasefire agreement. The decision comes after footage surfaced of released Israeli captives appearing to praise their captors and question the ongoing conflict. In the viral video, two Israeli hostagesā€”who were not scheduled for releaseā€”made desperate pleas for Netanyahu to secure their freedom, warning that military pressure would lead to their deaths. With 63 Israelis still held in Gaza and 602 Palestinian prisoners awaiting release, tensions have escalated, throwing the fragile ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal into uncertainty. #HamasBetrayed #Israel #PalestinianPrisoners #PrisonersRelease #PalestinianDetainees #IsraelHamasWar #HostageCrisis #CeasefireDeal #PrisonerExchange #IsraelHamasConflict #HostageRelease #IsraelDelaysRelease #PalestinianFreedom #IsraelGaza #HamasIsrael Also Read No Injuries From Israeli Bus Explosions In Suspected Militant Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/no-injuries-from-israeli-bus-explosions-in-suspected-militant-attack-4076703.html?ref=DMDesc Marco Rubio Supports Israel's War Objectives in Gaza, Advocates for Hamas Eradication :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rubio-endorses-israel-war-aims-gaza-hamas-elimination-011-4073063.html?ref=DMDesc India & Israel Strategic Partnership Ensuring Middle East Stability with a Different Quad :: https://www.oneindia.com/partner-content/india-israel-strategic-partnership-ensuring-middle-east-stability-with-a-different-quad-4070555.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Backs Away From Gaza Plan As Egypt And Jordan Reject Proposal To Take Over And Displace Gazans

US President Donald Trump appears to step back from his controversial Gaza plan after Egypt and Jordan voiced strong opposition. In a Fox News interview, Trump admitted he was ā€œa little bit surprisedā€ by their rejection. His proposal aimed to ā€œtake overā€ Gaza, eliminate Hamas, and restart development under US control. However, without regional buy-in, Trump now says he will not force the plan but will ā€œsit back and recommend it.ā€ This shift signals potential challenges in implementing any long-term strategy for Gazaā€™s future governance and stability. #Trump #Gaza #IsraelPalestine #MiddleEast #Egypt #Jordan #Hamas #USPolitics #Geopolitics #Diplomacy #ForeignPolicy #TrumpPlan #Palestinians #Israel #Conflict #Biden #War #InternationalRelations #News #Breaking
