"Israel says it will suspend more than three dozen humanitarian organisations, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF), for failing to meet its new rules for aid groups working in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip. MSF one of the largest medical groups operating in Gaza, where the health sector has been targeted and largely destroyed says Israel's decision will have a catastrophic effect on its work in the enclave, where it supports about 20 percent of hospital beds and one-third of births."
"Dozens of humanitarian organisations, including Doctors Without Borders, are banned by Israel."
"The organisation also denied Israel's accusations about its staff."
Israel will suspend more than three dozen humanitarian organisations, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF), for failing to meet new rules for aid groups operating in the Gaza Strip. MSF is one of the largest medical groups operating in Gaza, where the health sector has been targeted and largely destroyed. MSF supports about 20 percent of hospital beds and one-third of births in the enclave. Israel has accused some staff of unspecified issues, which MSF has denied. The suspension will remove substantial medical capacity and threatens access to maternal care and emergency services across Gaza.
