Hodeida: Al-Thawra General Hospital in Hodeida province on Thursday honored its medical, surgical, and administrative teams after concluding the governorate's first cancer surgery camp, which provided free consultations and operations for the most vulnerable patients.
According to Yemen News Agency, the five-day camp, supported by the General Authority for Zakat and held in cooperation with Al-Khazzan Hospital, offered free diagnostic and surgical services. It examined 70 cases and performed 21 successful operations, marking a significant development in the local healthcare landscape.
