Under royal directives, a Medical evacuation airplane transported, Hamza Qura’an, from the King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) in Irbid, northern Jordan, to the King Hussein Medical Center (KHMC) in Amman, in order to receive the necessary medical and health care, after he sustained serious injuries due to an explosion of a bag of antique copper in a hardware store where he works in the city of Irbid.
Hamza is a young university student, married with two children, who works in his father’s shops in the haberdashery, scrap and metal trade. He sustained multiple injuries and fractures due to shrapnel that exploded inside the shop. He was treated at Princess Basma Hospital in Irbid and provided with the necessary first aid before he was transferred to KAUH.
Irbid governor, Radwan Otoum, who accompanied by senior security officials visited Qura’an at KAUH, said he is receiving the necessary medical care.
KAUH director, Muhammad Ghazo, said that the young man’s health condition didn’t allow him to be transferred, and when his condition stabilized, he was transferred to the the King Hussein Medical Center.
