AMMAN — Following Royal directives, the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army (JAF) on Monday evacuated the 25th batch of sick children from the Gaza Strip as part of the "Jordanian Medical Corridor" initiative.

 

The latest group comprises 29 children, accompanied by 42 family members, who were transported to the Kingdom to receive urgent medical care, according to a JAF statement.

 

The patients are scheduled to undergo treatment at several Jordanian hospitals, a move that reflects the Kingdom's unwavering medical and humanitarian commitment to supporting the Palestinian people in the war-torn Strip.

 

The medical evacuations, launched in March 2025, are implemented in coordination with the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organisation (WHO), following the highest medical and humanitarian standards.

 

The Jordanian Medical Corridor, launched by His Majesty King Abdullah, provides ongoing care for sick children from Gaza and forms part of Jordan’s wider humanitarian efforts.

 

Jordan also operates two military field hospitals in the north and south of the Strip, and a field hospital in Nablus to extend aid to the West Bank.

 

The initiative is part of ongoing measures to provide healthcare and emergency support to Palestinians affected by conflict, reflecting Jordan’s enduring commitment to their well-being.
