🔴UPDATE: Israel’s offensive in Rafah has forced the closure of an MSF primary care centre in Al-Mawasi. This is the second health facility we have been forced to close this week and another step in Israel’s systematic dismantling of Gaza’s health system. Since February, we have treated over 33,000 patients at the health center. Earlier this week, the Tal Al Sultan stabilization point had to be evacuated due to extreme violence. Medical access in Rafah is now extremely limited and humanitarian access to north Gaza remains blocked. MSF has been forced to leave 14 medical facilities in Gaza since October. More than a million people have been forced to flee the Rafah offensive. As long as this offensive and the larger war continues, medical services and essential aid will diminish, and more civilians will die. #CeasefireNow

UPDATE from the West Bank, Palestine: Raids by Israeli forces in Jenin have left at least 8 people dead, including an MoH surgeon from MSF-supported Khalil Suleiman Hospital, Dr. Osayd Jabarin. He was shot on his way to work. The raids are still underway and have also left 20 people injured. Despite reports online, MSF did not and has never received prior notification about raids, nor their duration. MSF teams working in the West Bank have witnessed repeated instances where access to healthcare has been hindered during raids by Israeli forces as well as the targeting of ambulances and medical staff and acts of violence and killing in Khalil Suleiman hospital. We are alarmed by this incursion, and the possibility of more injuries and deaths. We urge Israeli forces not to harm or hinder healthcare staff, and to ensure they can access both injured patients and medical facilities.
