UK Lawyers for Israel urges ban on Doctors Without Borders

UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) has urged the British government to designate the humanitarian aid organization Doctors Without Borders (MSF) as a terrorist group. The advocacy group released a report claiming that MSF employees have links to Palestinian militant groups.

MSF has strongly denied these allegations, stating they have “had no indication” that staff members were involved in military activity prior to their deaths. The charity noted that allegations regarding specific employees were only brought to their attention after those individuals were killed in Israeli strikes. MSF characterized the claims as part of a “disinformation campaign” and emphasized that they would never knowingly employ individuals involved in military activities.
