Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation.

Over 1 year, 215 people were treated for injuries from remnants of war at a hospital in Deir ez-Zor, Syria. Without improved trauma care, rehabilitation services, and clearance of contaminated land, people will continue to suffer life-altering injuries.

The seasonal peak for malnutrition is now underway in southern Afghanistan, and an alarming number of children have already been admitted so far this year.

We’re worried that rising needs will continue to outpace the humanitarian response:

🎥 Eman, Abdelhadi and Bashir have returned home to Gaza after months of treatment at our hospital in Amman, Jordan.

Their stories reveal the difficult reality facing patients who have survived severe injuries and received specialised care abroad, only to return to a devastated health system.

🚨 An alarming number of children are being admitted for severe malnutrition in southern Afghanistan.

So far this year, admissions at the inpatient therapeutic feeding centre in Boost Provincial hospital have reached a monthly record high compared to the last 5 years: https://t.co/uTKOp8X8oU

Daily activities like farming, herding livestock, and playing outside should not put lives at risk.

But in Deir ez-Zor, Syria, people continue to be injured and killed by explosive ordnance left from years of conflict: https://t.co/tyrVzmWaD8

The effects of torture can last for months, years, or even a lifetime.

Since 2017, we’ve provided support to victims and survivors of torture in Mexico City, Mexico. Our centre is a safe place where people can rebuild trust, reclaim their dignity, and resume their life projects.

Our teams are assessing how we can respond to the earthquakes that struck Venezuela.

We have donated trauma kits to a hospital in La Guaira. Over the next 24–48 hours, we expect to continue donating trauma kits to hospitals while we refine a more comprehensive response and coordinate with partners.

Children with malnutrition in southern Afghanistan are often arriving at facilities in critical condition.

“This reflects not only worsening food insecurity, but also the breakdown of systems designed to detect and treat malnutrition at an early stage.”

People continue to be injured and killed by explosive remnants of war in Deir ez-Zor, Syria.

📢 Urgent action is needed to accelerate the clearance of land contaminated by explosive ordnance and landmines, and to address gaps in specialised care:

Today marks five years since the brutal killing of our colleagues María, Tedros, and Yohannes in Tigray, Ethiopia.

The Government of Ethiopia has shown no sign of concluding and sharing the outcomes of a credible and impartial investigation.

“Here, we’re reaching people who are completely excluded from the healthcare system, which is not adapted to their situation anyway.”

I’m proud to see how my colleagues in Gaza are continuing to provide specialised rehabilitation care to patients, despite supply restrictions imposed by the Israeli authorities.

I know that our late colleague Abood, my friend and the cornerstone of @MSF’s physiotherapy work in Gaza, would have been right alongside, finding innovations in the best way he could. I’m glad to see his legacy.

We are not directly affected by humanitarian funding cuts. But some of the communities we serve are.

Near Dunkirk, France, displaced women are living with the consequences of violence and exclusion from healthcare.

In an interview with a midwife and psychologist, learn about our mobile clinic bringing care to women in makeshift camps:

Relentless Israeli attacks are hitting Nabatiyeh, southern Lebanon. Civilians and medical and rescue workers must be immediately protected. Pierre Boulet-Desbareau, our emergency coordinator in Lebanon, shares more about the deadly conditions:

“Since the morning of 19 June, 25 killed and 37 wounded have been brought into Najdeh Al-Shaabiyeh hospital, many in critical condition. Our team is responding to an influx of patients of all ages, including paramedics wounded during rescue missions. People are arriving with severe head injuries, heavy bleeding, shrapnel injuries and in need of amputations, while others are suspected to be trapped under rubble as bombardment continues.

“Just yesterday, 18 June, our teams witnessed people returning to their towns in Nabatiyeh governorate and searching through the rubble of their destroyed homes. They had gone back in the hopes that it might finally be safe. Instead, many are now once again trapped under bombardment.

“Meanwhile, some search-and-rescue and ambulance teams MSF supports and works closely with are unable to reach some of the wounded or evacuate some of the civilians because moving through the area is simply too dangerous, and because responders have repeatedly been put at risk of coming under Israeli fire while doing their job. 

“The ongoing situation in Nabatiyeh is devastating. What our teams are describing resembles a death trap. People are caught under heavy shelling, while rescue teams are unable to safely reach them. Civilians and first responders must be protected, and unhindered access for rescue teams is urgently needed.”

Complex trauma wounds need specialised care, including rehabilitation. Our colleagues in Gaza are adapting their physical therapy work because of supply restrictions.

Last year was marked by a series of humanitarian crises and ongoing conflicts.

Amid anti-humanitarian rhetoric, our teams assisted people in 72 countries.

Have you heard of the new drug lenacapavir? It’s nearly 100% effective at preventing HIV.

The problem: It’s not available everywhere, and it is far too expensive.

Let’s change that: Two shots. $40. Everywhere.

After more than a decade of medical support, we’re concluding our activities in Nduta refugee camp, Tanzania, following the camp's closure.
