MSF calls for Nasser Hospital to be protected
Doctors Without Borders, known by its French initials MSF, has shared a post calling for Nasser Hospital in Gaza to be protected.
In a video posted on X, an MSF staff member said the hospital was the last location in Gaza where medical equipment could be sterilised and oxygen generated. “There is nowhere left after Nasser. It is the end of the line,” he said.
Israeli attacks have forced multiple hospitals across the Gaza Strip to close since October, with some hospitals managing to reopen, with reduced capacity.

Israeli ground forces operating in the Tal as-Sultan area in Gaza’s southern Rafah city also destroyed a building used by Hamas fighters, and air attacks and Israeli artillery targeted missile launchers in nearby Khan Younis, the military said in a post on social media.
‘They broke our hands and feet’: Israel releases 15 Palestinian prisoners
Video footage verified by Al Jazeera’s fact-checking agency, Sanad, has shown 15 Palestinian prisoners at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza’s Deir el-Balah city after their release by the Israeli forces through the al-Karara (Kissufim) border crossing.
The men recounted their torture in Israeli detention centres, saying they were beaten, deprived of food, forced to remain in harsh physical positions throughout the day, and attacked by dogs.
