A year after crushing terrorism, Damascus Countryside Directorate continues to exert tireless efforts to achieve the recovery of its institutions in the towns of the Eastern Ghouta as 14 health centers have been rehabilitated so far.

Immediately after liberating the Ghouta, the Heath Directorate has worked on taking all necessary measures to provide the healthcare requirements for locals through reactivating the affected health centers and supplying them with the required medical equipment and cadres and through sending mobile clinics.

Head of the Directorate Dr. Yaseen Naaous told SANA that 14 health centers were opened in most areas of the Eastern Ghouta over the past year, adding that there are 14 health centers and three hospitals in al-Mlaiha, Kafr Batna and Harasta which are under construction.

He further indicated that the cost of rehabilitating Harasta Hospital was estimated at SYP 552 million without the equipment, adding that it will be rehabilitated in cooperation with the UN Development Program [UNDP], while al-Mlaiha Hospital is under construction and it will be put into service by the end of the current year.

Work is still underway at Kafr Batna Hospital to be put into service next September.
