Report says Israel used water deprivation as weapon in Gaza

Israel and Gaza, 28 April 2026: Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said Israel is using access to water as a weapon in Gaza, calling it collective punishment. Israel's COGAT responded that MSF had 'lost moral direction'. Medics said Israeli strikes on Gaza killed five people, including a 9-year-old boy, and Daily Sabah said a Hamas commander was among them. A Gaza-bound flotilla was also reported to be growing, with activists aiming to challenge Israel's blockade.
