Lebanon: Families face uncertainty under bombardment and new evacuation orders

In less than two weeks, more than 800,000 people have been forced to flee their homes and towns in Lebanon, due to relentless Israeli bombings and blanket evacuation orders that are not sparing anyone. These mass displacements are deepening people’s vulnerabilities, including those of people who have not been able to return home since previous displacements.

South Sudan: Looming government offensive forces people, MSF to evacuate South Sudan town within 72 hours

Hundreds of thousands of people in Akobo, Jonglei state, South Sudan, are facing an impossible choice as a government-forces led offensive on the town is imminent, following evacuation orders on 6 March. The number of people in the town, currently led by the opposition, includes over 17,000 who were displaced just weeks ago, in the ongoing conflict in the country. People in Akobo must now either flee without protection or remain at risk of being killed, while losing access to healthcare and other essential services.

Despite these policies, MSF is committed to remaining to provide assistance in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) for as long as possible, working under its registration with the Palestinian Authority.

One year later: How US policies are reshaping global health and humanitarian aid

One year ago today, the Trump administration issued a series of executive actions that upended global health and humanitarian programs around the world and severely damaged global cooperation and solidarity on these issues. Clinics shut their doors. Lifesaving medicines were stranded at ports. Health workers lost their jobs. The human costs have been catastrophic.
