Israeli occupation forces are "obstructing access to health facilities blocking and even targeting ambulances, delaying people's access to care," Doctors Without Borders (MSF) posted on X on Sunday. 

The non-governmental organization, concerned with providing medical care to individuals in need, described the scale and intensity of the four-day-long Israeli incursion into the northern West Bank city of Jenin as "very alarming".

Israeli occupation forces are compromising electricity and water supplies at the MSF-supported Khalil Suleiman Hospital in Jenin, which the organization says "has been surrounded by Israeli forces since the start of the incursion."

In fact, several hospitals around the governorate have been closed off by occupation forces, which has been a commonly employed tactic during the occupation forces' attacks on cities and towns in the West Bank. 

"The medical team has been forced to halt dialysis operations, key for the treatment of kidney failure," MSF said. 

MSF also discussed the actions of occupation forces in Tulkarm, where its teams "saw the destruction in the camps and heard disturbing reports from an MSF-trained volunteer who was beaten and interrogated by Israeli authorities."

The organization called on "Israel" to "adhere to its obligations as an occupying power in the West Bank."

These obligations include access to medical care, according to MSF. 

"Hospitals, ambulances and the medical humanitarian mission must be respected and protected," the organization concluded. 

On Wednesday, Israeli occupation forces launched a wide-scale operation targeting Palestinians in the northern West Bank governorates in Jenin, Tulkarm, and Tubas. As soon as reports of Palestinian casualties began to emerge, locals and authorities reported that Israeli occupation forces were either blocking the routes of emergency services and ambulances or sieging hospitals.

At the Ibn Sina Hospital, doctors, medical staff, and patients were not allowed to leave or enter the hospital without the permission of occupation forces. In Tubas, a group of Palestinians was left to die, as emergency workers waited nearby to be permitted entry to a home targeted by occupation forces. 

Such practices have become synonymous with Israeli attacks on Palestinians, whether in the West Bank or the Gaza Strip.
