Doctors Without Borders announced the end of its services at the Aden Trauma Center, starting in mid-September, as a result of a decrease in infection cases and to make way for the building’s restoration process.
The organization stated in a statement on its account on the “X” platform, on Monday, that due to the decrease in cases of violence-related injuries in Aden, “Doctors Without Borders” will refocus its activities in the Aden Trauma Center to meet new medical needs and adapt to the changing environment.
She indicated that the organization will gradually end current activities in the Aden Trauma Center starting from mid-September until the end of 2024 to allow for restoration and renovation work for a new project in the same building in 2025.
She explained that during this process, MSF will ensure the quality of care for patients who are admitted to the facility until they are discharged.
The organization confirmed its readiness to strengthen its medical response in Aden if necessary, in accordance with its commitment to providing the medical needs of people in Yemen, since 1986.
