WHO Delegation Receives Medical Supplies at UAE Field Hospital in Gaza
The UAE field hospital in Rafah hosted a World Health Organization delegation this week to review ongoing medical efforts under the country's "Noble Knight 3" operation. The visit aimed to strengthen coordination for supporting Gaza's healthcare sector during the current humanitarian crisis.
During the visit, WHO officials received medical supplies and pharmaceuticals donated by the UAE to support healthcare facilities across Gaza. These supplies are meant to address urgent needs for patients and injured civilians facing difficult humanitarian conditions.
The delegation toured the hospital's departments and equipment, learning about its operations and the services it provides to Palestinian patients. They also reviewed how the broader "Noble Knight 3" operation serves Gaza's population.
WHO representatives praised the UAE's humanitarian and medical role in Gaza, specifically highlighting the work of Emirati medical staff at the field hospital. They recognized the team's efforts in providing care and treatment to wounded and sick patients.
This coordination between the UAE and WHO reflects growing international efforts to maintain healthcare services in Gaza. The UAE has been operating field hospitals and providing medical aid as part of its broader humanitarian response to the crisis.
Field hospitals like this one have become critical infrastructure for Gaza's healthcare system. They provide emergency services and specialized care when local hospitals face capacity constraints or operational challenges.
