MSF reports rising wounded admissions and suspended Alamata activities

Updated 3 October 2026

MSF’s 28 September update describes rising hospital admissions and says its Alamata and outreach activities were suspended. The admissions figures cover 22–25 September; they are neither a current death toll nor a count limited to civilians.

We do not know whether those activities have since resumed, how many patients were civilians, or the total number injured across the conflict. The date shown is the date of MSF’s update, not a newly established suspension date.
