The Dhaka Times Desk A senior US Air Force soldier has gone on hunger strike to draw international attention to the plight of the people of Gaza. The American soldier named Larry Hebert started a hunger strike in front of the White House from last Sunday (March 31).
Hébert carried a placard with messages from when he left his workplace in Spain. The message is this: Air Force officers are not feeding the people of Gaza when they are hungry.
This American soldier also followed the example of Aaron Bushnell and went on hunger strike to protest the Zionist Israeli crimes in Gaza. Bushnell was a young pilot in the US Air Force. On February 25 last year, he set himself on fire in front of the recently appointed Israeli embassy in Washington, protesting against the White House's support and assistance in the Israeli massacre of the oppressed Palestinians in Gaza.
Larry Hebert said in an interview that the civilians of Gaza are starving, being bombed indiscriminately, being targeted at every moment, that's why I'm on hunger strike. What Aaron Bushnell did was basically a daring adventure, and his actions inspired me as well. I saw myself in him because I felt exactly what he felt.
The US soldier called Bushnell's protest action unique and effective. What angered me was the silence that followed his actions, he said. Didn't even hear anyone from the government or the army say anything about Aaron. They didn't even mention his name. But I have seen people in Gaza and Yemen publish his pictures and honor him. At the same time, he expressed grief and sympathy for him.
It should be noted that there is a worldwide reaction against the crimes committed by the Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip. Citizens of different countries of the world, including the people of America, Britain and Italy, want an immediate end to this war in Gaza. To that end, they have staged massive protests several times in recent months.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
