The UAE, in co-operation with the World Health Organisation, conducted an urgent humanitarian initiative to evacuate 97 critically wounded people and patients from the Gaza Strip. The patients, accompanied by 155 of their family members, and 142 children, were flown to Abu Dhabi from Ramon airport in Israel, after passing through the Karam Abu Salem crossing, to receive vital medical treatment. “The evacuation flight, which is the second flight to depart from Ramon airport, highlights the UAE’s efforts to provide advanced medical care to injured Palestinians,” said Reem Al Hashimy, Minister of State for International Co-operation.
