Moreover, 185 packs of infant formula were provided to babies in the refugee camp, while 101 medical examinations and laboratory tests were conducted in the clinics.
Dr. Badr bin Abdul Rahman Al Samhan, regional director of “The Saudi National Campaign to support our Brothers in Syria”, said that “the campaign gives special focus to the medical side because of its impact on all aspects of life for our Syrian brothers, especially in light of the lack of funding for medical services.
