The World Health Organization reported Saturday that a devastating attack on a medical facility in Sudan’s East Darfur region resulted in the deaths of at least 64 individuals, including young patients, healthcare workers, and other civilians.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced the casualty figures through a social media post, detailing the Friday assault on Al Deain Teaching Hospital. The organization confirmed that the attack has completely disabled the medical center, eliminating crucial healthcare services for residents of the city.
The incident has left the community without access to the hospital’s medical care, creating a significant healthcare crisis in the region.
