Krankenstation Sadad - Maalula

Wiederaufbau der Krankenstation in Sadad

Im November 2013 wurde das christliche Dorf Sadad von ilsamistischen Terroristen überfallen, Häuser zerstört, geplündert und Dutzende Christen ermordet.
Auch die Krankenstation, die mittlerweile über 10.000 Menschen versorgen muss und wo 5 Ärzte und Pflegepersonal arbeiten, wurde mutwillig zerstört. Der Verein Maalula hatte es sich zum konkreten Ziel gemacht, dieses Projekt im Jahr 2014 vorrangig zu unterstützen, die Kosten wurden auf 10.000 - 15.000 Euro geschätzt. Mitte 2015 Konnte die Krankenstation durch Spenden von Maalula e.V. wieder in Betrieb genommen werden.
