MSF (Médecins Sans Frontières, also known as Doctors Without Borders,) also strongly denounced Israel’s announcement to block aid into Gaza. Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war.
“People in Gaza still need an immediate and massive scale-up of humanitarian supplies. “Israel” is once again blocking an entire population from receiving aid, using it as a bargaining chip,” it said in a statement published on X.
“This is unacceptable, outrageous, and will have devastating consequences,” said MSF’s Caroline Seguin.
“The news has created uncertainty and fear, causing food prices to spike.” While the overall number of trucks that entered Gaza has increased since the ceasefire started, restrictions by Israeli authorities on critical supplies, are hindering the humanitarian response. Most of the aid that entered was food and fuel, not nearly enough to meet the people’s immense needs.”
