Airstrikes hit a Doctors Without Borders\/M\u00e9decins Sans Fronti\u00e8res (MSF)<\/a>-supported hospital in Dara\u2019a Governorate in southern Syria, killing three people and wounding at least six, including a nurse, says MSF.<\/p>\n

The strike on Tafas field hospital, some 12 kilometers [7.5 miles] from the Jordanian border, took place on the night of February 5, 2016. It damaged part of the hospital building itself and incapacitated its heavily used ambulance service. In fear for their lives, more than 20,000 people from the town of Tafas fled to the surrounding countryside.<\/p>\n

The hospital is the latest medical facility to be hit in an escalating series of airstrikes in southern Syria over the past two months.<\/p>\n

“I was on my way to the hospital to help admit people who had been injured by the airstrikes,” says one staff member. “But as soon as I reached the hospital, I myself got injured. It all happened very quickly. I saw what looked like an explosion and then a flash of light, and then I lost consciousness for five minutes. My colleagues saw me lying on the ground, bleeding, and rushed me inside. I was injured in both my arm and leg by shrapnel.”<\/p>\n

This latest incident further weakens Syria\u2019s already exhausted health care system, and prevents more people from accessing desperately needed medical care.<\/p>\n

With the Syrian conflict entering its sixth year, aerial bombardments in southern Syria are on the rise, and so are human casualties. The use of indiscriminate bombing has a severe impact on both civilians and medical facilities. Despite tireless calls by international organizations for an end to indiscriminate bombing, it appears to have become the new norm. Since the start of this year alone, 13 health facilities in Syria have been hit<\/a>, confirming that hospitals and clinics are no longer places where patients can recover in safety.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
