MSF condemns Israeli attack on Nasser Hospital
Khan Younis, Nasser Hospital
- Attacks on the healthcare system
- MSF bearing witness
“We denounce in the strongest possible terms Israel’s horrendous attacks on the Nasser medical complex today – the only partially functioning public hospital in the south of Gaza," says Jérôme Grimaud, emergency operations coordinator for MSF in Gaza. "Israeli forces killed at least 20 people and injured 50 more in consecutive strikes, including healthcare workers, rescuers, and journalists. Among them was Mariam Abu Dagga, a freelance photographer who frequently worked with MSF. We are heartbroken by her death. Mariam leaves behind a son who must now grow up without his mother. At least four other journalists were also killed today."
