The IDF spokesman said on Saturday that the field hospital set up by the IDF delegation in Haiti is equipped to absorb dozens of ambulances evacuating injured children from various disaster areas in Haiti.

Injured people began arriving at the hospital to receive aid, among them many injured people from a UN building which collapsed.
