Amman, May 19 (Petra) -- The Jordan University Hospital has admitted two children from the Gaza Strip suffering from heart conditions and blood disorders to receive specialized medical treatment, as part of the humanitarian efforts spearheaded by King Abdullah II to ease the suffering of civilians in Gaza.

According to a hospital statement issued Tuesday, the children were received under the "Jordanian Medical Corridor" initiative, through which the Kingdom continues to provide medical assistance to Gaza.

On Monday, the Jordan Armed Forces evacuated the 28th batch of sick children from the Gaza Strip, comprising 20 children and 40 accompanying family members, who were transferred to Jordanian hospitals to continue their treatment.

Hospital Director General Nader Al-Bsoul said the initiative reflects Jordan’s commitment, under the leadership of King Abdullah II, to delivering humanitarian and medical support to the Palestinian people. He added that the hospital has dedicated its medical resources and specialized personnel to ensure the best possible healthcare for children arriving from Gaza.

Al-Bsoul noted that since August of last year, the hospital has treated approximately 57 children from Gaza. Several have successfully completed their treatment, while others continue to receive medical care and follow-up services at the hospital. Medical services have also been extended to a number of accompanying family members as part of the hospital’s commitment to providing integrated healthcare and humanitarian support.

He stressed that the hospital will continue carrying out its medical and humanitarian mission in a manner that supports recovery opportunities and the continuation of treatment for children and injured patients arriving from the Gaza Strip.
