Doctors Without Borders: "Israel" continues genocide and suffocates the lives of Gazans

Doctors Without Borders stated in a statement that Israel continues its genocidal war in Gaza, systematically destroying the means of survival for Palestinians. It noted that the siege is tightening with the creation of the "Yellow Line," which advances westward and reduces available space. It also noted that its teams treated over 1,200 injuries from shelling despite the alleged ceasefire.

Doctors Without Borders issued a statement on Monday, October 5, 2026, accusing Israel of continuing its genocidal war in the Gaza Strip. The organization affirmed that Israel is systematically destroying the conditions necessary for Palestinians' survival through ongoing violence, deliberate siege of basic needs, and destruction of health services and infrastructure. The statement indicated that the siege has become tighter with the establishment of the so-called "Yellow Line," a military position advancing westward, pushing Palestinians into a constantly shrinking area, noting that occupation forces currently occupy about 65% of Gaza. The organization explained that violence is not limited to areas around the line, as its teams treated over 1,200 injuries from Israeli shelling across the Strip during June and July, despite the so-called ceasefire. It highlighted a sharp deterioration in access to health services over the past three years, with increasing shortages of basic supplies and life-saving medicines. The organization concluded that the destruction of the health system and damage to over 80% of buildings will continue to impact for years and hinder any real recovery.
