Fear in Gaza Envelope settlements over rodent outbreak
Concerns among settlers in western Negev are escalating due to an unprecedented spread of mice and rodents, as signs and droppings have been found inside their homes. This situation threatens public health and security. The spread is believed to be linked to extensive digging within the Gaza Strip, heavy rainfall, and insufficient pest control efforts, causing the rodents to move densely from the fields into settlements. Current measures remain unimplemented or ineffective, and there has been persistent defiance of existing protocols. Estimates indicate that this phenomenon could lead to an increase in transmissible diseases and property damage. Settlement councils are attempting to address the issue and are emphasizing the need for responsible authorities to take effective action.
