Following the most recent violent and deadly incursion from Israeli forces into the West Bank city of Jenin on Thursday, MSF provided the MoH Hospital of the city with medical emergency supplies. The priority now is to help dealing with the influx of injured people.

 

According to UN sources, the Israeli operation was the deadliest in the West Bank in years, killing nine and injuring at least 28 people.

“MSF team is on the ground in Jenin, supporting the MOH hospital and identifying the urgent needs. As always, we are ready to respond. The situation for people is getting worse by the day and the community is living in constant stress towards the uncertainty of the next military incursion” Carolina Lopez MSF coordinator in Jenin says.
