Established in 1991, #Dadaab is one of the oldest refugee settlements in the world, and is still home to almost 400,000 people, most of them from neighbouring Somalia.

📹 Meet Halitare Abdi Sene, who arrived in 2024 and lives in the outskirt with her 8 children.

Today marks 1000 days since the escalation of #WarInUkraine.

🔴27,000 civilians wounded

🔴1,640 medical facilities damaged

🔴591 children were killed

With huge needs in mental health, physiotherapy, and emergency medical care, humanitarian support is needed more than ever.

“Responding to these strikes is extremely difficult. Ongoing bombardment or even double taps put medical responders at risk, this can delay the response time, limiting medical care in an emergency situation" – Thomas Marchese, MSF chief emergency coordinator in Ukraine, says.

“It’s hard when you see the lifeless bodies of children.”

Dr Hanna Sushkina describes the scene in Sumy, northeastern Ukraine, as our teams provided medical care following Russian strikes last night.

1/ In northwest Tanzania 🇹🇿, MSF's maternal & newborn care services are making a critical difference for refugees and the host community. Through stronger pathways to care, we are addressing the risks of childbirth and improving health outcomes for both mothers and babies.

#Sudan @WFP we see significant malnutrition and increasing food insecurity in the patients coming to our clinics in Nyala, South Darfur.

The people of South Darfur need your help, where are you?

There are more than 1 million people crammed into Rafah.

The consequences of an Israeli ground offensive would be catastrophic.

When a team from Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) working in the Kenyan city of Mombasa discovered that there were significant gaps in healthcare for adolescents and young people, they decided to do something about it...

📢Case dismissed.

After 7 years of fallacious accusations, the Tribunal of Trapani in Italy dismissed all the allegations against MSF and the other search and rescue NGOs falsely accused of aiding and abetting illegal immigration in the Mediterranean.

Ce matin, vers 3h00, le bureau #MSF de Pokrovsk, dans la région de Donetsk, en #Ukraine, a été bombardé et complètement détruit. Tout notre personnel est en sécurité. Cinq civils qui se trouvaient à proximité du bureau ont été blessés.

[Doctors w/o Borders @MSF_USA]

BREAKING:

Earlier today at around 3:00am, our @MSF_Ukraine office in Pokrovsk, in the Donetsk region was bombed and completely destroyed.

All our staff are safe. Five civilians who were close to the office were injured.

We condemn this attack on the office, which supports emergency medical humanitarian assistance for people in the Donetsk region. MSF calls for protection of its facilities, civilians, humanitarian aid workers, and health care.

“This attack of our office is far from being an isolated incident. The destruction of civilian infrastructure has been a hallmark of this war for a long time.” - Vincenzo Porpiglia, emergency coordinator for MSF in Ukraine. #WarInUkraine

[MSF International @MSF]

As a result of a missile strike on our office in Pokrovsk, Donetsk region, #Ukraine, we've had to suspend most of our medical activities, except for ambulance referrals and emergency care.

“What the people of Gaza need is an immediate and sustained ceasefire. It took too long for the UN Security Council to pass a resolution for ceasefire, now they must ensure that this was not an act of meaningless political theatre.” - @Chris_lockyear

#Gaza : Nous sommes révoltés par la destruction de l’hôpital Al-Shifa après une opération de 14 jours menée par les forces israéliennes à l'intérieur et autour de l'établissement. Un autre hôpital de Gaza est définitivement hors service, restreignant davantage l’accès aux soins.

[MSF International @MSF]

MSF is horrified that Al-Shifa hospital is in ruins after a 14-day long operation by Israeli forces in and around the facility. Gaza’s largest hospital is now out of service. Given the extent of the destruction, people in the north are left with even fewer healthcare options.
