With Al-Aqsa Hospital under threat, MSF opens field hospital in central Gaza

As nearly 650 patients flee the MSF-supported Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah following an evacuation order from the Israeli army, MSF is forced to anticipate the opening of a field hospital. Field hospitals are not a solution but a last resort in the face of Israel's dismantling of the health system. MSF calls on all parties to the conflict to protect Gaza's remaining hospitals.
