Remembering our colleagues killed in Gaza over the past six months of war. Some of them were killed while providing care for patients or sheltering with their families.
Attacks on health workers and health facilities are STILL happening. #CeasefireNOW

MSF is horrified that Al-Shifa hospital is in ruins after a 14-day long operation by Israeli forces in and around the facility. Gaza’s largest hospital is now out of service. Given the extent of the destruction, people in the north are left with even fewer healthcare options.

MSF extends our condolences to @WCKitchen (WCK) and the families of the seven aid workers killed in an Israeli strike on 1 April. We are outraged by this deadly attack on humanitarian workers trying to provide food to people in dire need.

Five of our colleagues have been killed in Gaza since the beginning of this war.
Several members of our staff remain unaccounted for.
We reiterate our urgent call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire #Gaza.

Doing what we can but it’s never enough.
“People are desperate. They don't know anymore what to do. They've lost family members. They've lost their homes. They have been displaced again.”
General Director Meinie Nicolai is currently coordinating MSF medical activities in #Gaza. 📽️ Watch her striking update.

“The people of #Gaza need a ceasefire not when 'practicable,' but now... Anything short of this is gross negligence.”
A week ago, @Chris_lockyear told @UN Security Council that the people of Gaza need a ceasefire now.
A week on, they still need a ceasefire.

We're horrified by today’s news from Gaza City.
An immediate and sustained ceasefire is the only way to stop the loss of more lives and increase the flow of humanitarian assistance.

“We consider Israel responsible for the situation of extreme deprivation and despair which prevails in #Gaza… which led to today’s tragic events.”

Nous avons appris avec horreur le carnage qui s’est produit auj. lors d'une distribution de nourriture dans la ville de #Gaza, +de 100 personnes seraient mortes & ~750 personnes auraient également été blessées à la suite de tirs de l'armée israélienne, selon les autorités locales

The Elders reiterate their call on donors to resume funding for @UNRWA immediately, in the face of an ever-worsening humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.
No other organisation can meet the humanitarian needs of Gazans at the scale #UNRWA can. Defunding UNRWA and its vital services only adds to the collective punishment of all Gazans for the crimes of Hamas.
In just over four months in #Gaza, there have been more #children, more journalists, more medical personnel, and more @UN staff killed than anywhere in the world during a conflict.
It is with profound regret that I must now inform you that @UNRWA has reached a breaking point, with Israel’s repeated calls to dismantle it and the freezing of funding by donors at a time of unprecedented humanitarian needs in Gaza.

“There is no health system to speak of left in #Gaza. Israel’s military has dismantled hospital after hospital. What remains is so little in the face of such carnage.”

While details are still emerging, ambulance crews have now reached the site, where at least two family members of our colleagues have been killed and six people wounded. We are horrified by what has taken place.

Tonight Israeli forces conducted an operation in Al Mawasi, Khan Younis, Gaza, where a shelter hosting MSF staff and their families was shelled.

🔴 Gaza update:
Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza, was shelled in the early hours of this morning, despite Israeli Forces having told medical staff and patients they could remain in the facility.
Thousands of displaced people were ordered to evacuate it on 13 February...🧵
Marine Buissonniere retweeted
Israeli forces have issued an evacuation order on Nasser hospital, in southern #Gaza, ordering thousands of displaced people out “into an apocalyptic landscape”.
We condemn this decision and call for an immediate ceasefire.

Israel’s declared ground offensive on Rafah would be catastrophic and must not proceed.
Today's announcement marks a dramatic escalation in this ongoing massacre.
There is no place that is safe in Gaza and no way for people to leave.

ALT Text on graphic reads: We call on the government of Israel to immediately halt this offensive. Israel’s declared ground offensive on Rafah would be catastrophic and must not proceed. Nowhere in Gaza is safe, and repeated forced displacements have pushed people to Rafah, where they are trapped in a tiny patch of land and have no options. As aerial bombardment of the area continues, more than a million people, many living in tents and makeshift shelters, now face a dramatic escalation in this ongoing massacre.

Helen Clark welcomes the decision of several @UNRWA donors to maintain funding so vital humanitarian assistance can still reach the people of #Gaza.
ALT “Gazans cannot suffer further collective punishment through suspension of UNRWA funding by donors. New Zealand, Norway, Spain and Ireland have shown a better approach. Allegations need to be probed but vital humanitarian assistance must continue and expand in line with UNSC resolutions.” - Helen Clark
