GAZA CITY – Head of Doctors Without Borders (MSF) for the Palestinian territories Leo Cans pointed out at the dire situation, labelling it a “massacre” and lamenting the charity’s limited ability to help.
Cans, who returned from Gaza last week, said that since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas on October 7, hospitals and ambulances have been targeted by the Israeli army, which claims that Hamas fighters are using these facilities as shields.
Three MSF employees were killed in the Gaza Strip by air strikes, as well as the daughter of an employee after an NGO building was hit by a shell. The international organization has around 300 employees in the Gaza Strip.
