Destruction of homes leaves Palestinians unable to safely return to Rafah [1]

[]

Date: 2025-06

“It’s extremely difficult to come back to the same place that used to be full of life,” explains MSF emergency coordinator Nadia Abo Mallouh, who used to work at the Emirati Hospital in Rafah. “We couldn’t even recognize the streets where the Emirati Hospital was. It’s sad seeing the hospital that used to bring life to earth totally empty—no signs of life, everything is destroyed.”

“Health services, humanitarian aid, and rebuilding of the city is needed for life to be able to come back to Rafah, but it’s still too dangerous for people to return in most areas,” says MSF emergency coordinator Pascale Coissard. “As we were visiting the former MSF Shaboura clinic in Rafah, we saw a child playing with a shell in the Al-Mawasi area. Although we cannot hear the bombs anymore, there are still dangers.”
