(CBC/Radio-Canada) – Dr. Amjad Rass says the Al Maghara Cave Hospital was the “safest place” in all of Syria — and now it’s been destroyed in an airstrike. Located in Kafr Zita, Hama province, the hospital was built under 18 metres of solid rock in an underground cave. Designed to withstand attacks in the war-torn country, it managed to keep operating through four separate airstrikes in 2018 alone.
