Evacuation of Ahvaz Pediatric Hospital Following Collateral Strike Damage
More than 200 patients from a pediatric oncology facility in Ahvaz were emergency evacuated after nearby US kinetic engagements caused significant structural damage and utility failures. The evacuation reflects the deepening humanitarian crisis in southwestern Iran as the air campaign enters its second week. The Iranian Health Ministry reported that the hospital is currently non-operational, further straining the region's ability to provide critical care for civilian populations amidst ongoing hostilities between US and Iranian forces.
