🇸🇾 #SYRIA: 13 YEARS OF WAR 🔴 Syria, 15 March 2011: in the midst of the Arab Spring, the Syrian authorities' violent repression of the population uprising leads to a destructive and violent civil war that continues to this day. The constant bombardment, violence and insecurity have led to a multitude of health issues. Only 59% of hospitals and 57% of primary care centers are fully functioning. Health professionals have fled the country and most civilians are unable to afford consultations and medicine. Today, despite the ongoing violence and difficulties in delivering humanitarian aid, Doctors of the World continues its efforts to maintain access to healthcare for victims of the conflict.
