The project for the new state hospital in Girne has reached its final stage. This was announced by the Minister of Health of the TRNC, Hakan Dinçyürek, during an inspection of the medical complex.

According to the minister, construction work has been fully completed, and medical equipment and furniture have already begun arriving at the hospital. The first batch of heavy equipment has arrived on the island, and installation will begin immediately after the holiday break.

Dinçyürek said deliveries of equipment will continue throughout June. After all installation and technical work is completed, the hospital is planned to open for residents as soon as possible.
