(Save the Children) – Hospitals across north-west Syria are looking at plans to further protect their facilities amid a constant wave of attacks. The defensive measures were prompted by sustained aerial bombardment on medical facilities in East Aleppo, which have left hospitals struggling to provide emergency care to gravely injured children. According to The Aleppo Health Directorate, these repeated attacks mean hospital workers are facing the prospect of having no safe space to carry out treatment at all, despite the high rate of casualties. The plans are being discussed for hospitals across Aleppo and Idlib governorates.
