Jawf issues distress call to avoid closing province’s largest hospital

JAWF, Sep. 22 (YPA) – The Public Health Office in Jawf province issued on Tuesday a distress call for avoiding the closure of the largest hospital and the only oxygen factory in the province due to running out of oil derivatives.

The Health Office explained in a statement, which Yemen Press Agency obtained a copy of it, that “the Saudi-led aggression coalition’s command has prevented the arrival of oil derivatives to the country for more than four months, which caused the supporting organizations to be slow in fulfilling their pledges, including providing oil derivatives to Al-Hazm Hospital and the oxygen plant since August until today.”

The statement pointed out that the oxygen plant stop would threaten the lives of thousands of patients, who come constantly to the hospital and all health facilities in the province that benefit from the oxygen plant services.

The Health Office held the countries of the aggression coalition legally and humanely responsible for the consequences of this situation in all its details and aspects.
