Reproductive Health Support: Al-Ghaydah Central Hospital in Al-Mahra received UNFPA-funded reproductive health supplies for its emergency obstetrics unit, aiming to reduce maternal and newborn deaths. Hospital Care Success: Sana’a’s University Heart and Catheterization Center reportedly saved a patient with high-risk acute pulmonary embolism using advanced catheter procedures after clot-dissolving medication failed.
