A detailed report about hospitals in Hama city by activists of the Syrian Network for Human Rights in cooperation with Damascus Center for Human Rights Studies<\/strong><\/p>\n

During the past few months, private hospitals in Hama witnessed an organized campaign by the Syrian regime forces which went on killing and torturing civilians and even pursuing them to the places where they receive treatment and withholding treatment from them. Hospitals receiving the wounded in Hama were attacked many times as shown by the following examples obtained by activists from the Syrian Network for Human Rights:<\/p>\n

Premature babies are dying in the incubators of Al Assad medical compound due to power cuts and inability to use generators after fuel supplies to the hospital were cut (Al Assad medical compound is a public hospital in the north eastern part of Hama in Al Hader neighborhood, specialized in treating babies and pregnant women. The Syrian regime forces have occupied the rooftop of this hospital and used it as a vantage point to kill and terrorize civilians. The hospital is one of the most important centers for the regime forces in this area):<\/p>\n

Moreover, field hospitals set up by residents with the help of doctors to treat the injured away from regime forces are witnessing massive shortages in materials, sterilization and medical practice. Doctors and nurses working in such hospitals are subject to arrest and torture. The most critical shortages in such hospitals are blood transfusion sacks which are imported and sold in Syria exclusively by the Ministry of Defence through state-run blood bank branches which are formally affiliated with the Ministry of Defence, in addition to the platelet separator only available at such blood bank branches. Many cases of deaths resulted from injury and the inability to provide the patient with the needed blood. Activists in the Syrian revolution are currently working to get such sacks into the country through illegal ways to meet the needs of field hospitals.<\/p>\n

The Syrian Network for Human Rights holds the Syrian authorities fully responsible for all the crimes related to withholding treatment from the injured and arresting them despite their near-full paralysis due to injury, in addition to the crime and the legal responsibility for shelling hospitals, arresting and terrorising medical staff, and killing all paramedics and their staff while they are trying to save the wounded after the ongoing and intensifying shelling of Homs amid a worldwide suspicious silence towards the ongoing crimes against humanity committed in Homs.<\/span><\/p>\n
