Minister for Health and Active Ageing, Jo Etienne Abela, has unveiled a cutting-edge mammography machine at Gozo General Hospital, aimed at providing thousands of Gozitan patients with accessible, high-quality breast care locally.

Minister Abela highlighted that this advanced equipment positions Gozo General Hospital at the forefront of mammography technology in Malta.

He noted that this development is part of the government’s broader strategy to modernise radiological services, with the installation of the Hologic mammography system enabling the swift and early detection of breast cancer.

The new machine offers outstanding image quality and improved patient comfort. Using Clarity HD technology, the Hologic 3D mammography system delivers high-resolution breast imaging in just 3.7 seconds, ensuring precise and reliable lesion diagnosis.

In addition to mammography, the hospital will provide biopsy services using ultrasound and radiography, delivering comprehensive breast care to the Gozo community.

“The government is dedicated to continuous investment in world-class healthcare services,” Minister Abela affirmed. “We are committed to ensuring that both Maltese and Gozitan patients benefit from top-quality medical care, leveraging the latest advancements in technology and treatment.”

Arrest Warrants By ICC For Israeli Prime Minister, Former Defence Minister

Nov 21 2024

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas military commander Mohammed Deif.

The ICC’s pre-trial chamber rejected Israel’s objections to its jurisdiction, concluding there are “reasonable grounds” to accuse the men of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Israel-Hamas conflict. Both Israel and Hamas deny the charges.

The ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, sought warrants in May for Netanyahu, Gallant, Deif, and two other Hamas leaders, Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar, who were reportedly killed. While Israel claims Deif was also killed in a July airstrike, the court has not verified this.

The case focuses on the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on southern Israel, which killed around 1,200 people and took 251 hostages. Israel’s military campaign in Gaza followed, resulting in at least 44,000 deaths, according to Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry.

The charges against Hamas leaders include crimes like extermination, murder, hostage-taking, rape, and torture. Netanyahu and Gallant are accused of targeting civilians, using starvation as a weapon, and mass killings.

Enforcement of the warrants depends on the ICC’s member states, excluding Israel and the United States, who are not signatories to the court.
