Cancer patients in Sweida face life-threatening difficulties. Due to the bloody events and the siege imposed on the region, they cannot travel to Damascus or any centers outside Sweida to continue their treatment or receive their medication doses at the few specialized centers.

We at the Kurdish Red Crescent have coordinated with several organizations inside and outside Sweida to secure the necessary medicines, chemotherapy doses, and healthcare for this group, considered the most affected by the violence and siege. We wish them a speedy recovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
