WHO has recognized Egypt as a malaria-free country. WHO has certified Egypt as a malaria-free country, marking a historic milestone in the fight against the disease, the organization said in a press release. “The World Health Organization (WHO) has certified Egypt as malaria-free, a significant public health achievement for a country of more than 100 million people,” the organization said in a statement on its website. The WHO added that the achievement was the result of “nearly 100 years of efforts by the Egyptian government and people” to prevent the disease, which has been prevalent in the country since ancient times. WHO grants malaria-free status to a country if it provides detailed and reliable evidence that the chain of transmission of malaria-carrying mosquitoes has been interrupted throughout its entire territory for at least the last three years. Malaria is an infection transmitted through a mosquito bite. WHO previously reported that despite progress, the African region continues to be hit hardest by the deadly disease.

The US called on Israel to release frozen Palestinian funds.

The US called on Israel to release frozen Palestinian funds.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday called on Israel to give the Palestinian Authority access to funds frozen since the start of the conflict.

 

“They need to get it to be able to pay their people who provide essential services, including essential work in the West Bank and Palestinian security forces,” Blinken said during a news conference broadcast by the State Department.

The American diplomat added that the Palestinian authorities “play a very important role in seeking to maintain peace and security in the West Bank, which is in the interests of Israel.”

In December, the Washingon Post newspaper, citing sources, reported that American authorities are trying to convince Israel to unblock salaries of Palestinian Authority employees to prevent a complete collapse of the autonomy’s power.
