A little known humanitarian crisis is occurring in #Myanmar , where conflict escalated in late October last year. Outgoing MSF project coordinator Dr Nimrat Kaur describes the extreme challenges of providing health care in northern Rakhine state, where areas have been cut off.

After being unjustly detained for 3 weeks, our search and rescue ship, the Geo Barents, is getting ready to sail. 🚢🌊We’re heading back to the Central #Mediterranean - where we belong.

We will do whatever it takes to provide medical care where it's needed most.

We work to provide much-needed care to victims of armed conflict in many war zones across the world 🌎

Since 2018, MSF has been supporting survivors of sexual violence in Benue state, northcentral Nigeria, where violent clashes have displaced many. Living in camps is difficult, more so for women who are often exposed to sexual violence.

Some survivors share their story. #athread

Street battles in #Sudan ’s suburbs and villages continue. Our teams across 11 states perform surgeries, aid births, and provide medical care. In refugee camps, we improve water and sanitation. But this is just a drop in the ocean of the vast needs.

Today, MEPs in European Parliament voted for a #MigrationPact that violently pushes back people seeking safety at #EU borders, criminalises #NGOs & outsources border management to unsafe countries.

This is an abolition of the right to seek asylum in the #EU .

⚫This is a shameful day.

In Port-au-Prince, #Haiti ’s capital, Dr Priscille Cupidon describes the violence there “like gangrene, spreading and threatening” patients and medical staff.

An ongoing conflict for nearly a year has devastated #Sudan , forcing millions to flee. Approximately 8.5 million people have been displaced. In February, the UN estimated that 25 million, including 14 million children, are in desperate need of humanitarian assistance.

Did you know that climate change has a direct impact on malnutrition❓

When there's little water, we can’t grow/produce food. But too much can bring pests & diseases that damage crops. Heavy rain can destroy entire harvests. All this can increase malnutrition 👇

Whether by train, boat, truck, car, motorbike, or on foot, we will do whatever it takes to provide medical care where it's needed most.

At the #WorldHepatitisSummit today, World Health Organization (WHO) released the 2024 Global Hepatitis Report, which shows MOST people living w/ #hepatitis go UNDIAGNOSED⚠️
Sign our petition to make hepatitis tests more affordable, so more people can get diagnosed & treated.

People in #Gaza tell us the number of times they've been displaced within the Strip before arriving in Rafah. There are now 1.5 million people there.

An offensive on Rafah would only be catastrophic.

We call for an immediate ceasefire.

“You don’t have two hours that pass in Khartoum without hearing gunshots. You don’t have a single day or night that passes without hearing the sound of bombs.”

Our emergency coordinator, Joel Ghazi, breaks down the dire situation in Sudan👇

We believe in access to healthcare for all.

“Patients are dying due to violence-related injuries and preventable illnesses; children are perishing due to malnutrition.”

Ahead of the date that will mark one year of conflict in #Sudan , I urge international organisations to scale up their response.
