Doctors Without Borders is responding to the escalating crisis in the Middle East

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is alarmed by the dramatic escalation in conflict across the Middle East, following strikes by US and Israeli forces in Iran and Iran’s subsequent retaliatory actions across the region.

How is Doctors Without Borders responding to the conflict?

Doctors Without Borders teams across the region are fully mobilised, with emergency teams deployed in Lebanon and Iraq. Preparedness measures include contingency planning, close monitoring of the situation, pre-positioning of medical supplies, and deployment of mobile services to respond to growing needs.

To mitigate the impact of disruptions, supply routes have been redirected through alternative channels, and efforts are underway to explore additional transport options, despite increased costs, to ensure the continuity of medical activities. Since 28 February, Doctors Without Borders has shipped 42 tons of medical supplies destined for the Middle East, including Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Yemen.
