ACTNews, GAZA – Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT) is
ready to operate another ambulance funded by the generosity of the Indonesian
people. The humanitarian car will support the healthcare service in this
besieged enclave. Supported by medical volunteers, this ambulance will
transport the patients to the nearest medical facilities.
"The number of fatalities and
injuries due to the Israeli aggression was very high at the end of last
Ramadan. They needed ambulances to carry them to medical facilities. Sadly,
Gaza still lacks enough ambulances,” said Said Mukaffiy from the Global
Humanity Response-ACT Team.
ACT ambulances in Palestine will operate
up to 18 hours per day to transport the Gazans to the nearest medical facilities.
These ambulances will also be manned by medical workers and volunteers.
Said added, more ambulances for Gaza will
be added along with the increasing need for ambulances in Gaza and support from
Indonesian benefactors. In the near future, there will be two additional units,
which are currently being assembled. Later, each ambulance will be deployed in
each Gaza governorate. It is estimated that, in the next two months, these
ambulances will be able to serve thousands of patients.
"Alhamdulillah, ambulances from
Indonesia are ready to serve in total the patients in need in Gaza. Every day,
one ambulance can serve up to 35 patients. The ambulances are also equipped
with first aid kits and other pieces of equipment so the safety and comfort of
patients is guaranteed. ," concluded Said.[]
