The children were accompanied by eight relatives and transported to Jordan to receive treatment and medical care at several Jordanian hospitals. Jordan said the move reflects its continued commitment to deploying its medical and humanitarian resources to ease the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, particularly children requiring specialised care.
Since the launch of the evacuation operations in March 2015, the Jordanian Armed Forces, in coordination with the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization, have transferred patients in accordance with approved health procedures and standards, ensuring their arrival in Jordan and access to necessary medical care.
The continuation of the Jordanian Medical Corridor comes amid what Jordan describes as extremely difficult humanitarian and health conditions in Gaza. The initiative reaffirms Jordan's commitment to supporting Palestinians, standing alongside the most vulnerable, and providing treatment for cases requiring medical intervention outside the Strip.
These efforts, Jordan said, embody the humanitarian and medical role the Kingdom plays under the leadership of King Abdullah II in supporting the Palestinian people and strengthening the humanitarian and medical response to their suffering.
