Israel said on Feb. 1 that it would terminate the activities of Doctors Without Borders in the Gaza Strip after the international medical charity declined to provide a list of its staff working in the territory.
The decision, announced by Israel’s Ministry for Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, requires the agency, also known as Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), to cease operations and depart the Gaza Strip by Feb. 28, according to a government statement published on Feb. 1.
