Israel Destroys Parts of Gaza City as Humanitarian Crisis Ensues for Palestinians
Doctors Without Borders halted Gaza City operations due to advancing Israeli tanks less than one kilometre from clinics, after conducting over 3,600 consultations last week, MSF said.
- On Friday, Doctors Without Borders announced it had to halt critical medical operations in Gaza City as Israeli military actions intensified, surrounding clinics and endangering both patients and healthcare workers.
- The suspension followed escalating attacks and advancing Israeli tanks within one kilometer of MSF facilities amid mounting hostilities and evacuation orders.
- In the past week, MSF clinics in Gaza City provided medical care through more than 3,600 patient consultations and assisted 1,655 individuals suffering from malnutrition, along with treating trauma cases, burn injuries, pregnant women, and others in need despite challenging healthcare conditions.
- Jacob Granger, MSF's emergency coordinator, explained that due to Israeli forces surrounding their clinics, the organization had no alternative but to cease its operations.
- The suspension leaves hundreds of thousands trapped in Gaza City with enormous medical needs and highlights calls for an immediate ceasefire and unhindered humanitarian access.
