US EditionIsrael’s top court allows aid groups to keep working in Gaza as Israeli strikes kill 5 there
The court's injunction allows over 20 aid groups to continue work despite new Israeli rules seen as violating international law, amid ongoing Gaza airstrikes killing at least five.
- On Friday, Israel's Supreme Court issued a temporary injunction allowing dozens of international aid organisations to keep operating in the Gaza Strip while Israeli airstrikes killed at least five people, including four from the Hamas-run police.
- The government had announced it would ban 37 aid groups by March 1 for not complying with new rules, while 17 nongovernmental organisations, including Médecins Sans Frontières, and the Association of International Development Agencies filed an urgent petition.
- Médecins Sans Frontières warned that loss of registration and staff is already impacting patient care, despite planning a $153 million expansion for 2026, with 913,284 outpatient consultations in 2025 and 83,579 in January 2026.
- Aid agencies cautioned that the injunction offers only partial relief and does not restore visas or wider access, while the U.S. Embassy began offering consular services in an Israeli settlement.
- Such strikes have repeatedly disrupted the U.S.-brokered ceasefire since it took effect on Oct. 10, and in recent weeks, humanitarian aid reaching Gaza has significantly decreased, risking aid to Gaza's 2 million Palestinians.
