TAIZ (The Thursday Times) — Yemen ke mahsoor shehar Taiz mein mehkama-e-sehat ke hukkam ne apni taaza chaar hafton ki reporting muddat mein paani jaise daston, mushtaba dengue bukhar aur mushtaba haize ke 5,642 cases record kiye hain, aur un ka kehna hai ke asal tadaad is se kahin zyada hai kyunke muhasira bimaron ko haspatalon se door rakhe hue hai.
Taiz ke Daftar-e-Sehat-e-Aama-o-Aabadi ke shoba-e-wabai nigrani ke adad o shumaar ke mutabiq paani jaise daston ke 5,228, mushtaba dengue ke 232 aur mushtaba haize ke 182 cases saamne aaye.
Pichhli muddat ke muqable mein daston ke cases kam hue. Shobe ke director Dr Yasin Abdulmalik ka kehna hai ke is ki wajah ghaliban yeh hai ke shehar aur gird-o-nawah ke dehaat ke darmiyan sarkein kat jane se logon ke liye tibbi maraakiz tak pahunchna mushkil se mushkil-tar hota ja raha hai. Unhon ne kaha, “Haqeeqat mein is se dugne se bhi zyada cases muhasire aur us ke mukhtalif asraat ki wajah se [tibbi maraakiz] tak pahunch hi nahin sake.”
Unhon ne kaha ke indhan ki qillat se black market mein qeematein barh gayi hain aur usi ke saath haspatal jane ka kiraya bhi. Daftar ke ek health communication ahalkar Taysir al-Samiei ne bataya ke muhasire ke doosre hafte ke ikhtitam tak mareezon ki haspatalon tak rasai 60 se 70 feesad tak kam ho chuki thi.
10 November ko gardish karne wali ek video mein shehar ke upar waqe Jabal Sabir ki ek khatoon apne khandan ki ek sheer-khwar bachchi ki kafan mein lipti laash uthaye hue thin, jo hangami tibbi imdad na milne par dam tor gayi. Unhon ne kaha, “Hamare bachche muhasire ki wajah se mar rahe hain.” Yemeni Network for Rights and Freedoms ke mutabiq bachchi ko haspatal le jane wali gaari par Houthi forces ne hamla kiya.
Paani khatam ho raha hai
Shehar ke ek consultant moalij Dr Fares al-Absi ne daston aur haize ke cases ki wajah ghair-mehfooz paani ko qarar diya. Un ka kehna tha ke Houthiyon ne shehar mein peene ke saaf paani ki aamad rok di hai, siwaye thori miqdar ke jo mehnge daamon farokht hoti hai, aur paani ke tankeron ke ek bare zariye, al-Dhabab ke aabi zakheere tak rasai bhi mehdood kar di gayi hai.
Unhon ne kaha, “Is waqt Taiz ki paani ki zarooriyat ka sirf taqreeban 8 feesad poora ho raha hai, jabke zyada-tar maqami kunwein peene ke qabil nahin.”
Al-Absi ke mutabiq diesel ki kami ke baais kachra uthaya nahin ja saka aur galiyon mein tanon ke hisab se jama ho gaya hai. Unhon ne Houthiyon par ilzam lagaya ke woh safai ki gaariyon ko shehar ke maghrib mein kachra-gah tak pahunchne nahin de rahe. Khara paani aur kachra dengue phailane wale machchharon ki afzaish mein madad dete hain.
Taqreeban bees lakh afraad mahsoor
Houthiyon ne October ke awail mein Taiz ke atraf pesh-qadmi kar ke hukoomati control wale ilaqon ko jane wala aakhri bara rasad ka rasta kaat diya tha. Yemeni hukoomat un par taqreeban bees lakh afraad tak khurak, saaf paani, adwiyat aur indhan pahunchne se rokne ka ilzam lagati hai. Houthi sarkon ki bandish ki zimmedari se inkar karte hain aur is ka ilzam hukoomati forces par daalte hain.
Human Rights Watch ne 29 October ko kaha tha ke yeh muhasira “bhook ko jangi hathiyar ke taur par istemal karne ke jangi jurm ke zumre mein aa sakta hai”, aur is silsile mein un maqami bashindon, imdadi karkunon aur Aqwam-e-Muttahida ke hukkam ka hawala diya jinhon ne Houthiyon ko zimmedar thehraya. World Food Programme ne 14 October ko kaha tha ke woh Taiz mein imdad par inhisar karne wale chhe lakh se zaid afraad tak nahin pahunch pa raha.
Aqwam-e-Muttahida ke daftar baraye insani umoor (OCHA) ke mutabiq taqreeban dhai lakh afraad buniyadi tibbi sahuliyat se mehroom ho chuke hain, jin mein paanch saal se kam umar ke ek lakh 86 hazar se zaid bachche shamil hain. Daftar ne ek hi hafte mein shadeed daston aur mushtaba haize ke 1,400 se zaid cases record kiye, aur is ka kehna hai ke indhan aur saman ki kami ke baais 12 haspatal band hone ke khatre se dochaar hain ya apni khidmaat kam kar chuke hain.
Yemen ki jang phailne ke saath saath muhasira bhi sakht hota ja raha hai. Houthiyon ki pesh-qadmi ke pesh-e-nazar hukoomati forces Aden ki qila-bandi kar rahi hain, Houthiyon ne Saudi Arab par naye hamlon ka dawa kiya hai, aur Aalmi Idara-e-Sehat ke mutabiq jang mein halak o zakhmi hone walon ki tadaad 12 hazar ke qareeb pahunch rahi hai.
