The Medical NGO Campaign Against Israel

August 3, 2026

A network of politicized medical and health advocacy NGOs are leading campaigns accusing Israel of committing “genocide,” targeting children, using starvation as a weapon, and systematically destroying Gaza’s health system. These allegations, lacking credible evidence while ignoring Hamas’ documented exploitation of hospitals and other medical facilities for military purposes, have been amplified by the media, UN agencies, governments, medical journals, and academic institutions, thereby shaping international discourse and policy.

NGO Monitor documents the role of major medical NGOs in these campaigns, with a particular focus on Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF/Doctors Without Borders). Our publications examine the accusations advanced by these organizations under the facade of humanitarian and health advocacy, their institutional structures, decision-making processes, operational practices, staff antisemitism, funding, and links to Hamas and other terror groups.
