Wounded Gazans receive refuge in the UAE

UAE's new center offers lifeline for young Gazans

Wounded Gazans receiving refuge in the UAE from the horrors of war in their homeland are being helped to rebuild shattered lives at a dedicated treatment centre at Abu Dhabi's Emirates Humanitarian City.

Dozens of Palestinians bearing the scars of the continuing conflict with Israel – from young children tightly holding their mother's hands to patients in wheelchairs and those wearing hearing aids – have already been given crucial assistance at the Specialised Centre for Case Assessment and Support for the Injured, operated by the Zayed Higher Organisation for People of Determination.

The centre, which was officially opened on Wednesday, is part of a vital network of support in place at the EHC, a safe haven for about 2,000 Palestinians that was established as part of the UAE's continuing humanitarian operations.

The ZHO centre provides key services such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and auditory rehabilitation. As well as essential physical care, it offers education rooms delivering an inclusive learning environment for patients with a range of disabilities.
