PORT DICKSON: Another small-scale Malaysian Field Hospital (HMM) is expected to be set up in Turkiye to provide humanitarian aid to earthquake victims, says Chief of Army Gen Tan Sri Zamrose Mohd Zain.
He said a team would be mobilised soon to identify a suitable location for the field hospital, in addition to assessing logistical needs, types of assistance and the total number of people who require help.
The Malaysian Armed Forces had set up one HMM in Turkiye to provide medical services to earthquake victims in the country, and it is expected to be operational on Wednesday. However, evaluation and review will be made from time to time to see if it is appropriate to send additional force. A devastating earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale that hit southern Turkiye and northwestern Syria last Monday has claimed over 30,000 lives so far.
