Six-year-old Masa Yassin needs a 3D-printed pressure mask to treat burns on her face. But Doctors Without Borders (MSF) says a shortage of plastic materials, following Israel’s ban on the organization’s imports since February, threatens its ability to make a new mask as she grows. The ban comes amid a dispute over Israel’s request for lists of local staff members’ names. MSF says providing the lists could put them at risk, while Israel says the restrictions are related to registration requirements and that it has allowed more than 24,000 tonnes of medical supplies into Gaza. At the organization’s clinic, 70 patients—including 50 children—are receiving treatment for facial burns, and 20 urgently need masks. Staff warn that ill-fitting masks or interruptions to treatment could worsen scarring and affect patients’ ability to speak, eat, drink and see.
