MSF Reports on South Lebanon Hospital Challenges
Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) reveals the challenges faced by the health sector in South Lebanon due to the Israeli escalation, which has resulted in over 172 attacks since the start of the war in March 2026. These attacks have led to the deaths of 133 healthcare workers, injuries to 402 others, damage to 17 hospitals, and the closure of three of them. Despite the assaults and security threats, healthcare workers have continued providing care, even as some facilities were destroyed and access remained difficult due to threatened roads and limited energy services. This has worsened the suffering of the population, especially displaced persons who face shortages of medical services and limited ability to reach hospitals amid ongoing shelling. The organization continues to provide essential emergency medical care and humanitarian aid despite increasing protection threats.
