Head of the Jordanian field hospital in the Gaza Strip Suliman Hulilat said on Friday eight injured people were transferred from Gaza to Jordan.

Hulilat told Roya that the seven cases are critically injured and had to be transferred outside.
He said that more injured with critical cases will be transferred to the Jordanian Medical City in Amman through the Jordanian ambulances in the next days.

“A medical convoy that was sent by the Royal Medical Services arrived in the Gaza Strip on Friday,” Hulilat told Roya.

King Abdullah II of Jordan issued earlier on Tuesday directives on Sunday to boost Jordanian field hospital capabilities in Gaza and to provide it with all medical supplies and cadres that enable it to provide the needed medical care.

60 people were killed in Gaza, hundreds were injured on Monday in the demonstrations near the Gaza Strip, hundreds protested against the U.S. embassy opening in Jerusalem in the same day.
