Qatar Charity said the projects were funded through donations raised during its Daf’at Balaa (Relief from Affliction) campaign, launched on the 27th night of Ramadan, with the aim of transforming charitable contributions into sustainable healthcare services for vulnerable communities.
The organisation said its 2026 health programme is designed to expand access to essential healthcare services and support Somalia’s health sector, which continues to face significant challenges in providing medical care across the country.
