Haiti: MSF report documents alarming rise of sexual violence in Port-au-Prince
Port-au-Prince, January 28, 2026 – Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) has surged in Haiti's capital since 2021 and is being used systematically to terrorize the population, with a disproportionate impact on women and girls, according to a report released today by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).

MSF GAZA: Update from Water and Sanitation Coordinator on MSF's work in Beit Lahia
Since Israel has destroyed and restricted access to critical water infrastructure, the amount of water available in Gaza is wholly insufficient. Through the production of drinking water and water trucking, MSF teams can still ensure that 1 in 4 people in Gaza have access to drinking water. As of the 31 December 2025, MSF’s registration in Israel has expired and as it stands, we will have to cease operations in Gaza by 1 March 2026. If MSF and other NGOs are forced to stop water activities, hundreds of thousands of people will lose access to drinking water. Denying humanitarian assistance to civilians is unacceptable under any circumstances. Denying people water, deprives them of the means to survive.

MSF DRC: Children at risk as measles spreads amid insecurity and access challenges
In 2025, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) was again faced with a major measles epidemic, with more than 82,869 suspected cases and 1,175 deaths recorded in almost all provinces, according to local health authorities. This outbreak comes at a time when the health situation is extremely fragile, marked by the coexistence of several health crises, including mpox, cholera, persistent insecurity in the east of the country, and a decline in humanitarian and health funding. In response, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has deployed teams to support the health authorities’ efforts to curb the disease. This response is taking place in a context of transition, as the combined measles–rubella (MR) vaccine has recently been introduced into the national routine immunization programme, marking an important step in strengthening prevention efforts.
