00:00:00:36 - 00:00:02:18 Mosul

00:00:04:11 - 00:00:10:10
One since the battle ended…
00:00:20:20 –
00:00:23:47
Thousands of people are returning to the city.
00:00:23:48 - 00:00:28:03 But health facilities are still in ruins, and many people don’t have access to healthcare.

00:00:28:04 - 00:00:32:10
There are less than 1,000 hospital beds for 1.8 million people.
00:00:32:11
00:00:36:07
Many health facilities lack equipment and medicine.

00:00:36:08 - 00:00:40:40 War wounded patients often struggle to find care, and live in agony.

00:00:42:01 –
00:00:44:43 Nashwan, 42
One of Mosul’s many war wounded

00:00:46:02- 00:00:48:23
When I went back to Mosul
00:00:48:24 –
00:00:53:20
there weren’t any hospitals after the liberation.
00:00:53:21 - 00:00:54:45
All the hospitals were destroyed.

00:00:54:46-
00:00:58:48
There were only one or two centres (in west Mosul)
00:00:58:49 –
00:01:02:31 And they didn’t have a lot of capacity or services.
00:01:02:32 –
00:01:05:24
The pain was so much.

00:01:05:25 –
00:01:09:49
And the wound was deep, and it hurt a lot.
00:01:10:00 –
00:01:13:12
I suffered a lot because of it (the injury).
00:01:13:13 –
00:01:16:37
And it’s had a negative effect on my life.
00:01:16:38
00:01:20:18
Especially with my kids and my family
00:01:20:19 –
00:01:23:14
because I cannot provide for them.
00:01:24:40 –
00:01:28:20
Nashwan is now receiving treatment
00:01:28:21 –
00:01:32:47
in a Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)
facility in east Mosul.
00:01:32:48 –
00:01:36:16
But the needs are enormous.
00:01:36:17 –
00:01:41:27 And more support is urgently needed to rebuild Mosul’s healthcare system.
