- The focus of the initiative was to bring the medical facility back to operational status at a minimal level
DUBAI: Young Palestinians have launched a volunteer program to clean and revive the Al-Shifa medical complex in western Gaza City following days under siege by Israeli forces, the Anadolu Agency reported on Monday.
The focus of the initiative was to bring the medical facility back to operational status at a minimal level, with special attention to preparing the kidney dialysis department.
Mahmoud Hammad, the director general of administrative affairs at the Ministry of Health in Gaza, said that despite the extensive destruction of facilities, the volunteer initiative aimed to address urgent healthcare needs by cleaning and sterilizing the complex, and prioritizing the restart of the kidney dialysis department.
He pointed out that patients in Gaza relying on kidney dialysis faced life-threatening consequences without access to necessary sessions.
