The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has significantly bolstered healthcare capabilities in the Kurdistan Region by donating three mobile clinics to the Ministry of Health. This contribution was announced during a press conference on Monday by Saman Barzinji, the Kurdistan Region's Minister of Health.

"The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has provided three mobile clinics, which are ambulances equipped with all necessary medical supplies, to the Ministry of Health's health services," stated Barzinji, emphasizing the continuous support from international organizations.

He praised the ongoing assistance, highlighting previous aid during the COVID-19 pandemic and the restoration of the maternity and children’s hospital in Halabja by international entities.

In addition to these mobile clinics, the Ministry has recently inaugurated two critical health departments. "Last Thursday, we inaugurated the emergency department in the Sangasar area and commenced the construction of Emergency Department No. 122. These initiatives aim to provide equal services and enhance the 122 service's role in assisting citizens with field treatment through medical teams," Barzinji announced.

He further mentioned the upcoming operational plans for the emergency department at Ranya General Hospital, indicating that efforts are underway to activate its services in the near future.

The addition of these mobile clinics and the establishment of new health departments mark significant steps towards improving healthcare services in the Kurdistan Region, reflecting the collaborative efforts between the local government and international organizations to enhance medical infrastructure and accessibility.
