Doctors at the UAE field hospital in Gaza successfully removed a 5-kilogram tumour (11lbs) from a patient's abdomen on Friday.
A medical team consisting of various specialists conducted the surgery, marking a new success for the hospital according to media reports.
The removed tumour will undergo laboratory examination to determine the treatment protocol for completing the recovery phase. The medical team at the UAE field hospital will continue to provide consultations to monitor the patient's condition and administer the necessary treatment.
The hospital continues to provide medical services and perform surgical operations for injured and sick Palestinians in the sector as part of the UAE's Gallant Knight 3 relief effort.
The United Arab Emirates opened the field hospital in Gaza last December to provide medical services to the residents of the sector and contribute to supporting the local health system, which is struggling under the difficult conditions caused by the ongoing conflict.
An Emirati medical team is overseeing the hospital, which has a reported capacity of more than 150 beds.
Fighting between Israel and Hamas has continued for the seventh month in Gaza after Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on southern Israel on October 7, killing 1,139 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping over 200, according to Israeli officials.
Israel declared war on the group and a 'complete siege' of Gaza, with a large-scale campaign of air strikes. A ground incursion began at the end of the third week, with Israeli leaders vowing to 'wipe out' Hamas. Palestinian officials reported that more than 34,000 people had been killed at the time of publication.
The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) claimed that Hamas locations and infrastructure were targeted in the response. However, United Nations experts warned against 'collective punishment' for the people of Gaza, before predicting a 'humanitarian crisis' and then claimed that 'hell is settling in' for the region.
