Israel’s decision to ban Doctors Without Borders and other aid organizations from Gaza is cruel, unlawful, and indefensible. Weaponizing humanitarian access violates international law and openly defies the ICJ. This is collective punishment, not security.
Israel plans to ban Doctors Without Borders @MSF_USA on Jan 1, along with some two dozen other humanitarian aid organizations from Gaza. This is in flagrant violation of the ICJ’s recent advisory opinion, which requires Israel to facilitate relief schemes.

On my last day in Jordan, we met families receiving humanitarian aid. I met a three-year-old orphan living without his family and cared for by neighbours, collecting winter supplies. I couldn’t take his picture, but the look in his eyes will stay with me. This is the human cost.

We came to listen. We were denied entry. That has not stopped our work. We are continuing to meet with refugees and humanitarian organizations and will bring their stories home with us.
