Benghazi Medical Centre received more than 400 patients with various injuries and medical conditions on the first day of Eid al-Adha, reflecting the intense pressure on emergency services during the holiday period.

In a statement released on Friday, the centre confirmed that it had treated 250 surgical cases caused by incidents related to Eid celebrations. These included knife-related injuries and trauma typically associated with the holiday’s rituals. In addition, over 170 internal medicine cases were handled, many involving high blood pressure and elevated blood sugar levels, all recorded by Friday afternoon.

The emergency and trauma department continues to operate around the clock, handling a growing number of patients. Hospital staff are working under increased pressure, responding swiftly to emergencies as part of the centre’s high-readiness protocol during holidays and public events.

Meanwhile, the hand surgery and plastic surgery unit, led by consultant Dr Mohey Eldeen Al-Shukri and his medical team, began conducting a series of intricate surgical operations. These included deep wound suturing, tendon repair, and treatment of other complex injuries resulting from mishandling of sharp tools or accidents during sacrificial rituals.

Hospital authorities emphasised that the response highlights the centre’s preparedness and commitment to addressing urgent medical needs during high-risk periods. Medical personnel remain on standby, with operating theatres and intensive care units working at full capacity to accommodate emergencies.

The high volume of cases on Eid al-Adha’s first day has raised concerns about public health awareness and safety precautions during festivities. Authorities may consider launching awareness campaigns to reduce avoidable injuries in future celebrations.
