He’s right.
“No veo ningún escenario en torno a la invasión terrestre de Rafah que no sea catastrófico Una ofensiva terrestre en #Rafah sería absolutamente horrible. Una carnicería”. #Gaza @Chris_lockyear, secretario general de @MSF. ✍️@Antonio__Pita, corresponsal de @elpais_inter.

Beautiful @JackieMorrisArt, thank you.
Secretary General of Médecins Sans Frontières (@MSF) Christopher Lockyear @Chris_lockyear is calling for a genuine ceasefire by all sides instead of useless "political theatre," and states a ground incursion in Gaza would be utterly terrifying and catastrophic.

❌#Gaza: seis meses de guerra sin reglas Radiografía de una destrucción: [Hilo]
Remembering our colleagues killed in Gaza over the past six months of war. Some of them were killed while providing care for patients or sheltering with their families. Attacks on health workers and health facilities are STILL happening. #CeasefireNOW 🔗doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/remembe…
Why @MSF does not accept the narrative of ‘regrettable incidents’ in #Gaza “The image of humanitarian aid is used as an alibi to perpetuate the brutal and disproportionate way in which this war is being waged” msf.org/why-we-wont-ac…
"This is not an isolated incident." @Chris_lockyear, from Médecins Sans Frontières, tells @SaimaMohsin he is not "satisfied with the narrative" around the strike in Gaza which killed seven aid workers. trib.al/b6FaUvF 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
Ultimately, the message is very simple.
“I can’t imagine any scenario where a ground invasion in Rafah can’t be catastrophic. A Rafah invasion will be just another example of how this war is fought without rules”, @MSF General Secretary, @Chris_lockyear at the #TalkAboutGazaMSF in Geneva about his recent visit to #Gaza
6 wks ago @MSF briefed the #UNsecurityCouncil on #Gaza Since: Countless more civilian deaths More hospitals annihilated More aid workers killed This is: Systematic Disproportionate. With Impunity Today I will brief media @UNGeneva & online doctorswithoutborders.ca/msf-to-un-secu…

Pressekontakt: +45 29 70 29 79If distracted by other news, important to remind that “Any ground invasion into Rafah would be an absolute catastrophe” #MSF Secretary General @Chris_lockyear.
Last month our Secretary General @Chris_lockyear was in Gaza. Here’s what he told us on March 18: “Any ground invasion into Rafah would be an absolute catastrophe. It doesn’t bear thinking about. It would be a disaster upon a disaster.”
@SkyNews @Chris_lockyear This is a heartbreaking situation that highlights the dire circumstances in Gaza. It is unacceptable that medics are being forced to make such difficult decisions due to limited resources. The international community must do more to support the people of Gaza and ensure that all…
And only one of the countless egregious attacks on humanitarians has been acknowledged and acted upon. All wars have rules - high time both parties to the conflict start respecting them!
200 HUMANITARIAN WORKERS KILLED IN GAZA. Wars have rules that must be respected by all sides. Humanitarians must be able to safely deliver aid. They are #NotATarget. They must be protected. Everywhere. At all times.
And that’s how it’s done. Clear statements calling it as it is. Power speaks power.
We do not accept the narrative of ‘regrettable incidents'. We do not accept it, because what has happened to @MSF’s convoys and shelters, is part of a deliberate pattern of attacks on humanitarians, health workers, journalists, @UN personnel, schools, and homes. @AJEnglish
Thank you @Chris_lockyear and @MSF for your support. @UNRWA
“It’s not just about the number of trucks coming in the border. It’s about what happens after that point. It is about the delivery. It is about sustained health care. It is about clean water.” @Chris_lockyear @MSF nytimes.com/live/2024/03/3…
@UNReliefChief @antonioguterres @UNOCHA A great 3 years Martin! Inspired by your leadership. You will be missed!
Trauma, malnutrition & horror along with kindness & Care! All part of the man-made catastrophic nightmare that is #Gaza today. @MSF @Chris_lockyear edition.cnn.com/videos/tv/2024…
Thank you, @Chris_lockyear for the work that you and your @MSF colleagues are doing to relieve suffering and bear witness.
“When you see it for yourself, it becomes visceral.” @MSF Secretary General @Chris_lockyear just visited Gaza. Now, he tells me that if an Israeli incursion into Rafah begins, “I can’t imagine any scenario which is not utterly catastrophic.”
@MSF @Chris_lockyear Here is a photo of a recent fundraiser for MSF in Glasgow organised by Dr LindaJackson and @lizzie_eldridge. £3,000 was raised by poets reading Palestinian poet’s voices and raising their own voice on behalf of the people of Gaza. We are listening to an MSF doctor’s experiences
So happy to be a finalist in the @Oxfordflash fiction prize 2024! Can't wait to read the anthology, out later this year.
