All the patients had sustained gunshot wounds, and three required surgery.<\/p>\n<p>However, as part of efforts address the situation, the MSF team in Abyei reportedly made a donation of drugs and equipments to the Ministry of Health hospital in Abyei, to enable them treat wounded patients.<\/p>\n<p><!-- close google_inset_b div ---><\/p>\n<p>With the fate of some wounded patients, particularly those north of Abyei, who are reportedly in dare need of medical care, MSF says it embarked on discussions with authorities to provide assistance to area people in the area.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;MSF is an independent and neutral medical organisation and reiterates its objective to reach all patients and provide them care in complete impartiality&#8221; said Bruno Jochum, MSF&#8217;s Director of Operations.<\/p>\n<p>He added, &#8220;It is imperative that medical assistance can be provided to all affected by the latest surge in violence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The international medical organization, which has been operating in Abyei since 2006, has also set up mobile teams in from Agok and Abyei to conduct assessments necessary for immediate intervention from the organization&#8217;s health personnel.<\/p>\n<p>Emanuel Roussier, MSF&#8217;s head of mission in South Sudan told Sudan Tribune by phone Friday that the organization remains committed to its impartial mandate of providing essential services to the population in need.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At the moment, health care is very difficult in Abyei.
