European Vascular Surgery Mission Arrives in Gaza

This week, a four-member team of Spanish and Italian volunteers arrived in the Gaza Strip to start treating patients in need of vascular surgery. This mission is led by surgeons Dr. Jose Francisco Gonzalez Rios from Spain and Dr. Ottorino Del Foco from Italy and includes anesthesiologist Dr. Francisco Javier Garcia Villalba and the nurse Javier Siles Vicente from Spain. They are working at the European Gaza Hospital and are the third vascular surgery mission to Gaza since March when there was an increase in the number of patients in need of vascular surgery increased due to the high number of gunshot injuries.
