North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo ( ), is facing a surge in cases, but the capacity to respond is still far from enough. New hotspots are emerging every week, while treatment capacity remains limited. This puts patients and communities at greater risk.

The response needs to move as quickly as the outbreak. Find out more: https://tinyurl.com/5d6fmyee

An update from Dr Mark Sherlock, Doctors Without Borders (MSF) Medical Programmes Manager for Myanmar:

“The airstrike on Monday near a busy market in Kyauktaw, Rakhine State, was reported to have killed at least 50 people.

With only a few functioning hospitals remaining across central Rakhine, where many of the injured are being referred, health staff are already stretched to their limits. Responding to a mass influx of war-wounded patients on top of this is pushing health services to the edge of collapse.

As violence intensifies, we are aware that people are becoming increasingly fearful of travelling to seek healthcare. They are being forced to weigh the risk of staying at home and delaying treatment against the risk of going to hospital, where gatherings of people may make them a target for the next attack.

This level of insecurity for people trying to access healthcare, and for health workers trying to provide it, cannot be accepted as normal. Healthcare must be protected — not only from attack, but also from the severe deprivation of everything a health system needs to function. Stop bombing civilians. Stop bombing hospitals. Allow life-saving medical care to reach those who need it."

On the morning of Monday, 28 September, fighting erupted in and around Baidoa town, , for the third time since 17 August. A health facility was reportedly severely damaged, and a healthcare worker was killed. An ambulance was looted, while civilian homes were also reportedly attacked. Two medical staff working alongside Doctors Without Borders teams were robbed, and one was injured.

Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is deeply alarmed by the impact of the escalating violence in Baidoa, Somalia’s South West State, on civilians and their access to essential healthcare.

We urgently call on all parties to the conflict to protect civilians, patients, healthcare workers and medical facilities, and to ensure that people in need of medical care can reach hospitals safely and without obstruction: https://tinyurl.com/457v45dh
