Gaza has recorded its first polio case in 25 years, the Palestinian Health Ministry reported. Later on, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called for a pause in the war to vaccinate hundreds of thousands of children. Tests conducted in Jordan confirmed the disease in an unvaccinated 10-month-old from central Gaza. “Several specialised committees were formed to carry out a campaign with different tasks to limit the spread of the polio epidemic, with the participation of the World Health Organisation, Unicef, UNRWA, and a number of experts,” the Palestinian Health Ministry in Ramallah said.
