Overview

• Médicos Sin Fronteras suspended medical work in Gaza City, saying Israeli forces surrounded its clinics, after providing 3,640 consultations and treating 1,655 malnourished patients last week.
• The group reported hospitals across the strip are overwhelmed by shortages of staff, supplies and fuel, and said it aims to keep supporting essential services at Al Helou and Al Shifa as long as they operate.
• Israel’s military said it struck more than 140 targets in the last day during its ground‑and‑air push to seize Gaza City launched on September 16, as displacement since late August was estimated at 700,000 by the IDF and 388,400 by the UN’s OCHA.
• A ministerial of 34 countries under the Hague Group coordinated legal, diplomatic and economic measures targeting Israel, including curbs on arms transfers, public divestment and use of universal jurisdiction.
• Separately, 12 countries announced an emergency financing coalition for the Palestinian Authority, while Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a Palestinian state in his UN speech and faced delegate walkouts and a New York protest of about 2,000 people.
