Iran Issues Warning: Attacks on Israel and US to Persist as IDF Remains in Gaza

Iran's Foreign Minister, Hossein Amirabdollahian, warned Israel that attacks by Iran and its allies against Israeli and American targets will continue as long as Israeli forces are waging war in Gaza. He stated that the attacks would cease if Israel withdraws its forces. Iran and its proxy terrorist groups have already carried out over 100 attacks since mid-October, which could potentially escalate the conflict between Israel and Hamas into a regional crisis. Amirabdollahian emphasized that ending the genocide in Gaza would lead to an end of military actions and crises in the region. He also highlighted the connection between the developments in Gaza and the security of the Red Sea, warning that everyone would suffer if Israel's actions in Gaza continue. Iran has recently deployed a navy vessel to the Red Sea, and Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have been launching missile and drone attacks against international trade vessels in the region.

Evan Gershkovich's Mother Affirms His Resilience in a Russian Prison Aimed at Crushing His Spirit

The mother of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich has expressed concerns about her son's well-being in a Russian prison. Ella Milman described the conditions at Lefortovo Prison in Moscow as "very hard" and compared it to a "Stalin-era" facility. Gershkovich has been detained since March 2023 on charges of espionage, which the United States considers to be wrongful. Milman stated that her son is doing his best to stay strong and keeps his "spirits up," but they are worried about him. Gershkovich's imprisonment has garnered international attention and highlighted the dangers faced by journalists in authoritarian countries. Despite the challenging circumstances, he continues to communicate with his family through letters and meets with his Russian lawyers regularly, as well as receiving monthly visits from the U.S. ambassador.

Over 400 lives claimed as Zambia faces deadliest cholera outbreak in 20 years

Zambia is currently facing a severe cholera outbreak that has resulted in over 400 deaths and more than 10,000 infections. As a result, schools in the country have been ordered to remain closed after the holiday season. A soccer stadium in the capital has been converted into a treatment center, and the government is launching a mass vaccination campaign while providing clean water to affected communities. The outbreak began in October and is strongly linked to poverty and inadequate access to clean water. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has referred to the fatality rate of around 4% as "devastatingly high," considering that treated cholera typically has a death rate of less than 1%. Similar outbreaks have occurred in neighboring countries such as Malawi, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe, resulting in over 200,000 cases and 3,000 deaths in southern Africa since the beginning of 2023. Malawi experienced its worst cholera outbreak in decades in 2023..
