WHO delegation visits UAE field hospital in Gaza, commends its humanitarian efforts

WHO delegation praises UAE's field hospital in Gaza as effective emergency response model, with ongoing medical convoy deliveries supporting Palestinian health sector.

"effective model for emergency humanitarian response in crisis areas - WHO Delegation"

Gaza City, September 1

A delegation from the World Health Organisation (WHO) has visited the UAE field hospital in the Gaza Strip, as part of efforts to strengthen cooperation in supporting the health sector amid the humanitarian challenges facing the enclave.

During the visit, the delegation praised the significant role played by the UAE through the field hospital, describing it as an effective model for emergency humanitarian response in crisis areas.

As part of its ongoing support, the UAE, in cooperation with the WHO, delivered a new convoy of medicines and a variety of medical supplies to hospitals in Gaza, aimed at enhancing the capacity of the health system and meeting urgent needs.

Approximately three weeks ago, under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, the UAE, in coordination with WHO, had sent two medical convoys dedicated to supporting hospitals in the Strip, in addition to another convoy delivered directly to Gaza hospitals. This reflects the UAE's unwavering commitment to supporting the Palestinian health sector.

The Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 underscores that strengthening the health sector in Gaza remains a top priority within the UAE's humanitarian efforts, in line with its steadfast approach to supporting the Palestinian people and providing medical assistance to patients in the Strip. (ANI/WAM)

As an Indian, I appreciate when countries step up for humanitarian causes. We've seen our own government provide medical aid during crises. This is how global community should work together.

While I appreciate the humanitarian effort, I hope there's also focus on addressing the root causes of the conflict. Medical aid is essential but lasting peace is what people truly need.

Field hospitals in conflict zones are literal lifesavers. The coordination between UAE and WHO shows how international cooperation can make a real difference on the ground.

Operation Chivalrous Knight is such an appropriate name. This is what true knightly behavior looks like - protecting and serving the vulnerable. More countries should follow this example.

The medical convoys and field hospitals are crucial, but I hope there's also mental health support being provided. The psychological trauma people experience in conflict zones is immense and often overlooked.
