Since he arrived in Al-Hol Camp, more than 4 months ago, Khatab (9 Y) has had to visit the mobile clinics to get his bandages changed but the wound never healed due to the plates fixed in his leg and hindered his movement. Once the field hospital kicked off, the medical staff there diagnosed his condition, performed an orthopedic surgery, removed the plates and promised that he is going to walk on his own soon.
Khatab is one of many medical conditions benefitted from the services provided by the hospital, which is established jointly by the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, International Committee of the Red Cross and Norwegian Red Cross.
