Rhian Lunin – The Independent March 19, 2026
Officials at the World Health Organization have admitted that they are preparing for a “worst-case scenario” nuclear threat if the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran escalates.
Hanan Balkhy, WHO regional director for the eastern Mediterranean, said that staff remain “vigilant” for a nuclear incident following President
“The worst-case scenario is a nuclear incident, and that’s something that worries us the most,” Balkhy told Politico. “As much as we prepare, there’s nothing that can prevent the harm that will come … the region’s way — and globally if this eventually happens — and the consequences are going to last for decades.”
The official told the outlet that United Nations staff are preparing for an incident in “its broader sense,” including if there was an attack on a nuclear facility or the use of a weapon. “We are thinking about it, and we’re just really hoping that it does not happen,” Balkhy added.
In the wake of the bombing campaign in the Middle East, WHO is “refreshing” staff on how to respond in the event of a nuclear incident and providing guidance about long-term health risks linked to radiation exposure, Politico reports.
“I think those who read the history of previous incidents, whether intentional or accidental, are very aware of what we’re talking about,” Balkhy added.
Israel and the U.S. have continued to pummel Iran’s nuclear sites as Trump insisted Tehran was on the brink of getting a nuclear weapon.
At the beginning of “Operation Epic Fury,” which began on February 28, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair General Dan Caine insisted the goal of the operation is to eliminate Iran’s ability to build a nuclear weapon, echoing the same line shared by Trump and the White House when they launched the attacks.
This week, Joe Kent, Trump’s director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned from his post because he could not “in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran” and the country posed “no imminent threat to our nation,” he said in a post on X.
In her opening remarks to the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday, Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, said that U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran last summer “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear enrichment program.
“There has been no efforts since then to try to rebuild their enrichment capability. The entrances to the underground facilities that were bombed have been buried and shuttered with cement,” Gabbard’s opening remarks stated.
Trump’s artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency czar David Saks caused alarm Monday when he suggested that Israel could escalate the war “by contemplating using a nuclear weapon.”
The president insisted that “Israel would never do that” when asked about the comments later by reporters.

Germany’s former concentration-camp sites — which today operate as Holocaust memorials — have become so unsafe for staff that emergency panic buttons are now being installed.
The jews were such a pain they had to put them in special camps, many in the UK say we should now do it in the UK
the epstien spy ring has angered the UK
With the collapse of russian Communism in 1990, info came out that casts grave doubt on the holocaust being genuine
The site director insisted that how Germany should indoctrinate the young about the horrors if the holocaust which must be improved. He said: “Across Germany graffiti, people come to have thier photo taken with Hitler salutes
other attacks at concentration camp memorial sites have increased massively in recent years from visitors from all over the world

Except for one small inconvenient part of this story: nuke industry is phony. One of many lies of the past 100 years. There are no nukes. No one has em except on paper and in their dreams. The stories keep piling up , fake wars with pretend enemies, accusing the other of making nuke bombs and threats of using em on them. The WHO is using this scare tactic to get more money. Those who pretend to have nukes and the industry that goes along with it are just stealing a lot of money.
All part of the global depopulation plan. Do you see it unfolding ? Are you ready to die ?
‘“The worst-case scenario is a nuclear incident, and that’s something that worries us the most,” Balkhy told Politico.’
Hmmm. The WHO, who supported the 2020 Scamdemic and Vaxtermination. We are to believe they are CONCERNED about “nukes” and peoples’ health?
What about regarding this as fear porn AIMED at strengthening the top-down control of populations’ belief systems?
So the “who” whores are now coming out with the “nuclear weapons” fear porn propaganda for the system. Well! take it from me, and others that it is all lies, just like all the rest of the systems BS. Nuclear weapons DO NOT WORK!
If you give the subject even a cursory inspection, just like the evolutionary theory, you will find it is just complete trash. To get an idea on the subject read “Death Object, Exploding the Nuclear Weapons Hoax” by the Physicist Akio Nakatami and “Revisiting Hiroshima” by M Palmer. Both eye opening reads. Then explore the net If you need to.
Just like all their shit. Lies, Lies, Lies! Again shit made up by the jew to rip off the tax payer for billions to bring about the new world order for the scum.

WARS ON IRAN, LEBANON – NEWS & HEADLINES:
Why is If Americans Knew covering the war on Iran? It can not be overemphasized that Israel has been the impetus behind US policies and actions vis-a-vis Iran for years. This is especially true right now, under Donald Trump. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has been pushing the US to attack Iran for decades.
The American people have made clear that they do not want to go to war with Iran, but Israel partisans and the Israel lobby use their massive political clout to bring about whatever is beneficial to Israel – including putting the US military in harm’s way. For more background on Israel’s role in American wars, watch IAK’s short film, “The Israeli Hit List.”
