LONDON: The Jordanian Field Hospital 7 in southern Gaza has started receiving patients and providing medical and therapeutic services as part of a humanitarian mission to support Palestinians in the territory.
Its field hospital director said that medical and nursing teams had treated over 1,000 patients in specialized clinics that operate round the clock to address various medical needs.
“We take pride in our presence in Gaza and our unwavering commitment to serve our Palestinian brothers and sisters with distinction and professionalism,” the hospital’s force commander told the Jordan News Agency.
The facility includes clinics for dermatology, orthopedics, pediatrics, maxillofacial surgery, internal medicine, and gynecology. It also provides neonatal intensive care and operates a mobile prosthetic limb support unit, in addition to offering facilities for general surgery, vascular surgery, neurosurgery, plastic surgery, and burns treatment.
The hospital team this week supplied 11 trucks of humanitarian aid, relief items, and medical supplies to support Gaza’s health infrastructure, as part of the Jordanian Armed Forces’ broader efforts to help Palestinians.
Jordan was among the first countries to conduct airlift missions in the early days of the conflict and has delivered relief to Gaza since late 2023.
It has partnered with several humanitarian organizations, including the World Health Organization, the World Food Programme, and World Central Kitchen, to implement food and medical projects aimed at assisting Palestinians in Gaza.
