Libya: MSF Evacuates Wounded by Boat for Emergency CareApril 5, 2011
MSF evacuated 71 patients by boat on April 3, 2011, from the Libyan city of Misrata, where ongoing violence has overwhelmed medical facilities with the wounded. Among the evacuated patients were three people on life support, 11 people suffering from major trauma, and many others with abdominal wounds and open fractures. Intensive medical care was provided on board as the boat sailed to Tunisia, where it arrived in the city of Sfax on the morning of April 4.
