Fighting erupted in Baidoa, Somalia, this morning. Our medical teams working with the Ministry of Health have received 69 patients affected by the violence at Bay Regional hospital. We’re concerned that many wounded people are unable to reach the hospital: msf.org/somalia-people-must-…

Since our founding in 1971, we’ve grown to a global movement delivering emergency medical care in over 70 countries. Thanks to our 7 million individual donors, we provide care where it’s needed.

#Syria: Since December 2024, around 1.7 million refugees who had fled the country and 1.9 million internally displaced people have returned to their communities. #MSF is supporting water and sanitation activities to help restore access to safe water in areas of return.👇

We recently opened an Ebola treatment centre in Nia Nia, Democratic Republic of Congo. Within the community, we’re working with leaders, health workers and other local organisations to build acceptance of the response. msf.org/msf-expands-response…

On 23 September, an Israeli airstrike hit close to our clinic in Khan Younis, Gaza, Palestine. Fadi Husam, nursing team supervisor, was at the clinic, where he worked with his team to stabilise injured people. “Yesterday morning, there was a huge Israeli airstrike very close to our clinic in Khan Younis, 10 people who were injured came to our emergency department where our team all stepped in to support in the response. Among them was a 32-year-old man in critical condition, with multiple shrapnel wounds to his face and neck, as well as other injuries. A seven-year-old child also arrived with multiple shrapnel wounds caused by the force of the explosion.  “We all felt scared when we heard the sound of explosions, we all have families who live close to the site of the explosion, and we were worried about them. But as a medical team, the patient comes first and we provided the best care for all cases. Over the course of an hour, we stabilised all of the patients and referred them to Nasser hospital for further treatment. “We were glad we managed to treat the people who were injured yesterday, but every healthcare facility in Gaza is overwhelmed because of the Israeli restrictions on supplies. We are short of even the most basic medicines and equipment, such as gauze, and at any moment generators can break down because of the lack of engine oil and spare parts. We desperately need to see more medical and logistic supplies enter Gaza.”

🔴 West Bank: On 23 September, Israeli forces demolished the homes of 91 people in Jinba, Masafer Yatta, Palestine. They destroyed 12 homes, including one belonging to an MSF community health worker, plus water tanks and animal shelters. This is the third mass demolition in Masafer Yatta this month.  “They didn't even warn us - they just came and demolished everything. One soldier told them, ‘demolish it completely, I don't want to find anything left.’ But whatever they do, we will stay here and try by any means to rebuild our home.” - MSF community health worker. As part of our rapid response interventions, we donated mattresses, blankets and other items for people in Jinba whose homes were destroyed. It’s our fifth response this month for demolitions, all in south Hebron hills and Masafer Yatta. We have seen demolitions by Israeli forces affect 69 families in the last 6 months alone, and these numbers keep rising. Israeli authorities must stop demolitions, forcible transfer and all measures that force Palestinians from their homes.

Our programmes in Malawi and Mali contribute to showing that it is possible to diagnose, prevent, and treat cancer in fragile and humanitarian settings. We’re speaking at the World Cancer Conference this week to share our experience: msf.org/delivering-cancer-ca…

We’re expanding our response to the Ebola disease outbreak in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo ⬇️ msf.org/msf-expands-response…

“Too often, people with cancer are denied access to treatment and care not because effective tools do not exist, but because they are priced out of reach, unavailable when they are needed, or not suitable for resource-limited settings and countries.” 👇 msf.org/delivering-cancer-ca…

Seeking safety is not a crime.

We’ve worked on cancer programmes in Malawi and Mali since 2018. We’re taking that experience to the World Cancer Congress, where we will speak at two sessions, sharing the message that providing cancer care is possible in humanitarian crises: msf.org/delivering-cancer-ca…

🚨  The race to contain the Ebola disease outbreak in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is far from over.  As the edges of the outbreak expand, a more comprehensive response is urgently needed: msf.org/assuming-ebola-disea…

A new study in DRC, launched by MSF and our partners, is testing whether the existing ERVEBO Ebola disease vaccine can help protect frontline workers from Bundibugyo virus Ebola. msf.org/msf-launches-ebola-v…

🚨 Our teams at Kule health centre in Ethiopia’s Gambella region have been responding to an influx of wounded patients following violence in Itang Special Woreda on 18 September. The health centre received 88 patients affected by the violence. Eight were deceased, while four others died on their arrival at Kule health centre, despite the efforts of medical teams. The remaining patients have been treated for injuries ranging from minor to serious. Thirteen patients have been referred for additional medical care to Gambella hospitals for further treatment.  “Our priority is to provide urgent medical care to everyone who needs it, based solely on medical need and regardless of their identity or background,” says Gul Badshah, MSF Operations Manager for Ethiopia, based in Nairobi. “We call on all those involved to exercise restraint and protect civilians from further violence.”

“Today, the community needs mental health support.” Over 80,000 people from Nawa city, Syria, were refugees for over a decade. Driven by the needs of those who lived through war and those returning home, we’re providing mental health care in Nawa and Tasil:

📢 The Ebola disease outbreak in Democratic Republic of Congo is far from over. Our teams are observing a worrying trend of cases in new, underprepared areas. Read more:  msf.org/assuming-ebola-disea…

The recent escalation in Yemen is putting pressure on an underfunded health system. We're providing trauma kits to hospitals, as they need the capacity to absorb sudden increases of wounded patients: msf.org/yemen-renewed-fighti…

📢 In DRC, we and Epicentre, our epidemiology arm, have launched BRAVO, a study following 20,000 frontline workers to assess whether an existing Ebola vaccine can offer protection against the Bundibugyo virus. msf.org/msf-launches-ebola-v…

“The [Ebola disease] outbreak is not shrinking, it is moving.” While the spread is slowing down in Ituri, DRC, the outbreak is moving into underprepared areas, posing a serious risk:  msf.org/assuming-ebola-disea…
