MSF suspends non-critical operations at Nasser Hospital in Gaza

Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has suspended noncritical medical operations at Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza due to reports of armed men using the facility for weapon movement and patient interrogation. MSF expressed serious concerns over the presence of armed individuals, intimidation, and arbitrary arrests, emphasizing that hospitals must remain neutral. This directive also applies to other hospitals in the region, while the Hamas-run Interior Ministry stated its commitment to preventing armed presence in medical facilities. Additionally, Israel plans to terminate MSF’s operations in Gaza following the organization’s refusal to provide staff lists to ensure no links to terrorist groups.
