"MSF Urges Security Council to Stop Complicity in Gaza Carnage and Provide Humanitarian Aid"

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has called on the United Nations Security Council to demand an immediate and sustained ceasefire in Gaza, lift the siege, and ensure unrestricted aid to the entire Gaza Strip. MSF accuses the Security Council of complicity in the ongoing slaughter due to its inaction and vetoes from member states, particularly the United States. MSF teams have witnessed a resumption of indiscriminate killing and forced displacement on a large scale since the collapse of the seven-day truce. The conditions in Gaza have become unbearable, with significant increases in infectious diseases and a desperate need for humanitarian aid. MSF urges the Security Council to act now to end the carnage and alleviate the suffering of the people in Gaza.
