MSF shares images of devastation in southern Gaza
Doctors Without Borders, known by its French acronym MSF, has shared images from Khan Younis and Rafah taken by one of its staff members in April and May.
They show destroyed buildings and rubble-filled streets across the two southern Gaza cities, which like other parts of the enclave have faced heavy Israeli bombardment.
The images “offer a glimpse into the campaign of annihilation waged by the Israeli army in Gaza since the start of the war”, MSF wrote on social media. “We continue to call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire.”
