The Media Advisor to the Ministry of Health, Al-Amin Al-Hashemi, announced that 25 medics and medical personnel have been killed since the onset of the war on Tripoli.

He added in a briefing before the Public Liberties and Human Rights Committee of the House of Representatives (HoR) in Tripoli, that the Ministry had also registered the wounded to be in excess of 50 people affiliated with the ambulance and field hospitals, during the past 14 months, which accounts for the war period.

He indicated that many health facilities have been “methodically destroyed,” according to the Ministry’s official Facebook page on Saturday.
