Qatar's ongoing support for the health sector in Gaza, during nearly two years of continuous Israeli aggression, is a model of effective and practical solidarity with the Palestinian people, according to a senior Palestinian government official in the Gaza Strip.
Dr Ismail Al Thawabtah, Director-General of the Government Media Office, expressed deep appreciation for Qatar's tireless humanitarian efforts amid the catastrophic conditions resulting from the Israeli assault and blockade on Gaza. He emphasized that the tragic situation has affected all aspects of life, especially the already fragile healthcare system. Al Thawabtah highlighted the recent establishment of a first aid station at HH the Father Amir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani Hospital for Rehabilitation and initiative, funded by the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD), comes at a critical time as northern Gaza faces severe humanitarian and health crises due to the systematic targeting of hospitals, starvation of civilians, and obstruction of aid by Israeli forces.(QNA) page 6
