Those carrying out life-saving work should not have to be worrying about saving their own. We mourn the death of another @PalestineRCS colleague. #NotATarget
"There is no small act of kindness in Gaza”. Susanne, an operating theatre nurse, has been in Gaza supporting patients through their devastating realities. Our war surgery teams have been in the European Gaza Hospital since Nov. supporting life-saving operations and recovery.
Each day of this conflict is another day that humanitarian workers are unable to operate safely. Our thoughts are with @PalestineRCS. #NotATarget
#Gaza Hospitals reduced to rubble. Humanitarian workers killed. Each collapse on the system is another devastation for civilians. Less access to aid. Less medical assistance. Less hope.
In Rafah, people have been displaced 4+ times. There is a lack of: · Food · Safe water · Sanitation · Healthcare · Shelter · Safety This reality needs to be kept in mind as the next steps in the conflict are devised and deployed. icrc.org/en/document/ga…
Families, friends, and entire communities, are waiting for news about their loved ones, while enduring anguish and uncertainty. They have the right to know what happened to them. icrc.org/en/document/ic…
We are devastated by the news that Ameer Sobhi Abu Aysha, a @PalestineRCS volunteer working in Al-Amal hospital in Khan Younis, was killed today. Our sincere condolences to his family, loved ones and colleagues. #NotATarget.

#Gaza Hospitals reduced to rubble. Humanitarian workers killed. Each collapse on the system is another devastation for civilians. Less access to aid. Less medical assistance. Less hope.
Important thread by our colleagues in @ICRC_uk 👇🏼 Dis/misinformation has very real consequences on people’s lives.
In times of conflict, it is vital that facts are not distorted. Dis/misinformation has very real consequences on people’s lives. The narrative that legal obligations towards your enemy can be ignored is not new, but it is deeply misguided.
#Gaza | Out of a population of 2.2 million people, over 1.6 million are now living in Rafah. People face an alarming lack of food, not enough access to safe water & a lack of medical care. The needs are immense.
Healthcare workers save lives. Under international humanitarian law, hospitals, healthcare workers, and ambulances must be allowed to perform their crucial roles.
📍 European Gaza Hospital Our doctors are working to treat patients with severe injuries, many of them burns or large open wounds. The risks of infection are high, and many cannot get the nutrition they need to recover. Dr. Hay, ICRC anesthetist with our war surgery team 👇🏽
#Gaza Our war surgery teams have been treating patients in European Hospital Gaza since Nov, but there is a desperate need for every medicine. Without basics like painkillers, it is getting harder and harder to treat patients. Dr. Guido Versloot, ICRC Physiotherapist shares 👇🏽
Under IHL, parties must ensure access to food, water, and medical supplies. People are hungry and desperate. The trickle of aid into #Gaza falls far short of what is needed. More needs to be done. Our colleague Michael Talhami shares 👇
Staying neutral allows us to do our job. It is not indifference: it is a deliberate choice. Our mission comes from the Geneva Conventions, universal laws that preserve a degree of humanity, even in war. Today, 161 years since our founding, neutrality remains as crucial as ever.
📍#Gaza People are living in tent cities with no toilets & a lack of access to water & food. Infections have become common & there is a high risk of the spread of disease (cholera, meningitis, hepatitis A). Our colleague Michael shares on the growing public health concerns 👇
📢 Access to basic services is an obligation under IHL. More than 85% of the #Gaza population has been displaced since the beginning of the conflict. One man asked us - “When will all this end?” The same question is one everyone’s mind.
"One of the most painful things is when you walk through the hospital, and the children ask you if everything is going to be ok..." Amid the deafening sound of explosions in Khan Younis, our colleague @nanoninoto tells us about the situation in the European Gaza Hospital 👇
"Every hospital in the Gaza Strip is over-crowded and short on medical supplies, fuel, food & water. Many are housing thousands of displaced families. And now 2 more facilities risk being lost due to the fighting". News release 👉 ms.spr.ly/6010ia8Mn
“One of our main challenges is that there are a lot of patients here who need to be taken care of, but there is no space. This is the desperate thing to think of". Raneen Wafi, ICRC health officer, shares on the situation from European Gaza Hospital 👇
“I am sleeping on an empty stomach. I can manage, but the little children can’t handle it. The food we get is not enough, not enough to sustain a small child for a day”. Majed Abu Jamal, sharing from a camp for displaced people in Rafah #Gaza
Why doesn't the ICRC stop wars? We wish it was that simple! While we can't physically stop wars from happening, here's what we do to support those affected by armed conflict.
Patients - civilians - healthcare workers - hospitals – all must be protected under IHL. At hospitals like European Gaza Hospital even without going inside, you see the terrible legacy of this conflict. Our colleague @stiofanoriain shares what he's seen over the past weeks👇
Our neutrality isn't always popular, but it is always essential for our work in wars around the world ⬇️
Why do we stay neutral in conflict zones? Our organization was established under the Geneva Conventions, the most widely ratified treaties in the world with 196 countries signatories. Today our mission remains the same: to help and protect people caught up in war and violence.
