Overview

  • Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) describes Gaza as a 'mass grave' due to relentless Israeli military operations and a stringent blockade.
  • Israeli air and ground offensives resumed on March 18, 2025, following a collapsed ceasefire aimed at pressuring Hamas over hostages taken in October 2023.
  • The blockade has led to critical shortages of food, fuel, and medical supplies, crippling hospitals and humanitarian relief efforts.
  • MSF reports the deaths of 11 humanitarian workers and accuses Israeli forces of disregarding the safety of aid personnel and civilians.
  • Humanitarian operations, including MSF clinics and hospitals, have been severely disrupted, with calls for an immediate ceasefire and lifting of the blockade.
