Israel Bans Humanitarian NGOs in Palestinian Territories

On January 1, 2026, Israel revoked the accreditation of 37 international humanitarian NGOs, including Doctors Without Borders and Action Against Hunger, effectively banning their operations in Gaza and the occupied West Bank starting March 1. The Israeli government cited counterterrorism objectives, requiring NGOs to submit lists of Palestinian employees for intelligence screening. Critics, including UN agencies, condemned the bans, warning of severe humanitarian consequences, especially in Gaza's already dire conditions. NGOs argue the new regulations pose ethical risks and jeopardize their staff's safety, while many organizations refused to comply, citing violations of neutrality and independence.
