Gaza: St. John’s Eye Hospital in the Gaza Strip conducted 3,020 eye operations and medical procedures for ophthalmic patients in the Gaza Strip as part of the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) grant to the hospital worth $2m.
The two-year grant started in May 2019, with the aim of contributing to the costs of patients coming to St. John’s Eye Hospital from needy cases and focusing on eye and surgical services.
This grant, which is supervised by the Qatari Committee for the Reconstruction of Gaza, comes in light of the deteriorating humanitarian conditions experienced by the residents of the Strip and the urgent need to support the health sector through the support of the hospital in order to continue to provide service and treatment to patients and difficult humanitarian cases in the Strip.
