Saudi program saves elderly man’s life in emergency operation at Socotra hospital
SOCOTRA — The Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen successfully saved the life of a 70-year-old man at Socotra Hospital following a severe hit-and-run accident, after an urgent, high-level medical response completed within 12 hours. According to officials, the program, which operates Socotra Hospital with Saudi support, received an emergency report of the patient’s critical condition caused by life-threatening brain hemorrhage. **media[2651351]** Saudi Ambassador to Yemen and Supervisor-General of the program Mohammed Al-Jaber immediately directed the provision of all necessary medical supplies and emergency care to stabilize the patient and preserve his life. Due to the high medical risk of transferring the patient by air outside Socotra, an urgent plan was implemented to bring a neurosurgery consultant to the island, a specialty not available locally. **media[2651350]** The consultant was transported by land from Mukalla in Hadramout to Al-Mahrah, then flown from Al-Ghaydah Airport to Socotra in a carefully coordinated operation reflecting the program’s operational readiness. All required medical equipment and medications were also urgently secured from Aden and transferred to Socotra Hospital, allowing the medical team to begin treatment immediately upon the arrival of the specialist. The operation was closely monitored by the program’s local office director, Mohammed Al-Yahyai. The medical intervention was successful, and the patient’s condition stabilized following the emergency procedure. The case highlights Saudi Arabia’s continued humanitarian and development role through the Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen in supporting the health sector and saving lives in remote areas despite significant geographic and logistical challenges.
