Israel is banning some 40 international aid organizations from the Palestinian territories, among them Doctors Without Borders, also known as MSF.

The group, which provides health care in war zones around the world, says it treated a million people in Gaza last year. MSF offers maternal care, vaccinations, specialized wound treatment, physiotherapy, mental health care and distributes clean drinking water in Gaza.

Israel says the ban on aid groups, which also include Save the Children, Mercy Corps and Oxfam, will not impact aid into Gaza, and that these organizations failed to meet new security requirements.

U.N. agencies, dozens of aid groups and countries like the U.K., France and Canada have urged Israel to reverse the ban and ease restrictions on aid after two years of war.
