IOF Prevents Medical Care to Asthma Sufferer
NABLUS, February 27, 2007, (WAFA) - Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) prevented on Tuesday an ambulance from reaching a citizen suffers from asthma.
WAFA correspondent revealed that the Nablus resident, Ghareb Selhab, is in a critical condition after being denied access to medical treatment by the IOF.
