Head of East Jerusalem hospital thanks UAE for its ‘generous support’ – The National
A $25m grant from President Sheikh Mohamed has saved a hospital in East Jerusalem from shutting down.
Al Makassed Hospital, a non-profit clinic run by an Islamic charity, was struggling to pay salaries and costs after the local government cut aid during the coronavirus pandemic.
It stopped taking non-emergency patients in April this year as bills mounted. There was a shortage of medicine that affected patient care but the timely grant from the UAE will help it to continue its services, said Dr Adnan Farhoud, the hospital's general director.
