Due to the suspension of services at health facilities in the province of Taiz as a result of lack of resources and growing medical needs of increasing casualties daily in the areas of conflict, the security and economic situation is deteriorating.
The project also aims at  signing an agreement with hospital to perform surgical operations and carry out examinations for 220-250 casualties, said Mohammed Rashed Al Kaabi, Manager, Relief Department, QC.
He said the project will provide free orthopaedic surgical services to casualties in the province, where the first specialised centre in Yemen is being furnished and equipped in Al Taoun hospital in Taiz.
