A 12-year-old Syrian girl who had a life-threatening heart condition was evacuated from southern Syria with her mother and received life-saving emergency treatment in the pediatric intensive care unit at Ruth Children’s Hospital last week, Rambam Medical Center says.
She returned to Syria in good condition on Tuesday.
The girl was evacuated by the IDF in coordination with the nonprofit organization Jethro Jews for Druze, which covered the costs of hospitalization, the hospital says.
It says she underwent the medical procedure and four days of recovery in Israel before the IDF arranged for her return to southern Syria.
