"This is not a ceasefire": Life in Gaza continues to be suffocated six months on
Six months since the fragile and ineffective ceasefire was implemented in Gaza on 10 October 2025, Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is raising the alarm on continued violent attacks by Israeli forces and an ever-expanding military control of the Strip. At the same time, the living conditions of Palestinians remain dire, against the backdrop of a continuous and deliberate pattern of obstruction of aid by Israel, which is translating into entirely preventable deaths. MSF’s medical teams are witnessing firsthand that, while the intensity of the conflict has decreased, the reality in Gaza remains catastrophic.
