The Targeting of Maarrat al-Nu’man Hospital
The following clinics were operated at the Hospital
After the Syrian regime regained power over the army camps surrounding the city of Maarrat al-Nu’man, it conducted brutal attacks on Orient Surgical Hospital and most medical centers in the area, resulting in a great wave of displacement. Due to the above reasons, Orient for Human Relief stopped operating the surgical hospital in Maarrat al-Nu’man by the end of 12/2014.
