The US announces that Hamas is setting conditions to allow departures from the Gaza Strip

The Islamist group Hamas sets conditions to allow departures from the Gaza Strip, the US State Department announced on Monday through spokesman Matthew Miller, quoted by Reuters and Agerpres.

"Just as we believe that (Hamas) should release all the hostages that they are holding, we believe that they should (...) let go the American citizens and other foreign nationals who are basically forced to stay in Gaza against their will because Hamas is not honoring its responsibility to act on its side of the Rafah crossing" on the border with Egypt, Miller told the media.

The spokesperson of the American diplomacy also stated that 45 more aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip on Sunday, bringing the total to 150, and progress is being made in the delivery of fuel, vital for the Palestinian population in the territory controlled by the Islamist group Hamas.

He added that late last week the United States presented Israel with a clear position: communications in Gaza must be restored. Telephone and internet services partially resumed on Monday after more than a day of outage that made rescue operations more difficult as Israel continued to strike Hamas targets.

About a hundred localities in the Republic of Moldova do not have access to medicines. "Pharmacy in your village" reached only 47 villages in 2024

In many villages in the Republic of Moldova, access to medicines remains a major problem, due to the lack of pharmacies. Though the authorities launched the "Pharmacy in your village" project, within which they proposed to open 146 state-subsidized pharmacies this year, only 47 were created. So the inhabitants of many villages still have limited access to the necessary treatments, and this situation especially affects the elderly or those with chronic diseases.
