The Dhaka Times Desk Tensions have soared across the Middle East after an Israeli airstrike on the Iranian embassy in the Syrian capital Damascus threatened to retaliate. In this situation, the United States approached Turkey to prevent Iran from retaliating against an Israeli embassy or a facility in Tel Aviv in the Middle East.
US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters that the United States has been working to ease tensions in the Middle East since Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7. There has been renewed tension in the region since Iran recently announced attacks on Israeli infrastructure and US bases in the Middle East.
The US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken requested China and Saudi Arabia in addition to Türkiye to cool Iran's head. In the past 24 hours, Blinken also held phone conversations with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan.
Mathew Miller also said that Blinken said in the phone conversation - if a rash action is taken, it will spread more tension in the entire Middle East, including Iran.
It should be noted that after the Israeli air strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, the capital of Syria on April 1, the region and the United States are also on alert after Tehran threatened to retaliate. At least 7 military advisers including Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, commander of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRCG) were killed in the attack in Damascus. -News of Anadolu

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
