Our field hospital is well visited. In addition, we are about to open the expansion with some important features.
The 17 beds in the field hospital of us and our partner organization Heyva Sor are almost completely occupied. At al-Hol camp in northern Syria, we still mainly treat children, but also some women. Most of them are severe cases with e.g. multiple injuries and burns. On average, our patients spend three days with us.
With the constant utilization of the hospital, the opening of the expansion in just a few days comes at the right time. Five to seven additional beds, an examination room, a treatment room for particularly critical cases and two isolation rooms for camp patients with suspected infectious diseases such as tuberculosis are added.
We are especially pleased to finally be able to set up a rest room for our local employees so that we can continue to work together for our patients..

“The red thread must become the red line again!”
On 27.05.25, we and eight other humanitarian aid organizations working in Gaza drew a "red line" in front of the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin to demand compliance with international law. For us it is clear: the protection of civilians, medical personnel and humanitarian aid is non-negotiable! We document our translated speech at the rally here.
Complex crisis – simple answer: solidarity!
"The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy," said chainsaw-wielding multi-billionaire Elon Musk in a recent podcast. And he is right. But differently than he thinks.
Global Solidarity Now. Now more than ever!
In our areas of operation – Gaza, Ukraine, and other crisis regions – we witness every day just how urgently people rely on fast and flexible humanitarian response. Especially now, as humanitarian assistance comes under increasing global pressure, our work is more challenging and more vital than ever.
