On 30 October 2024, Somali Dispatch reported that Prime Minister of the Federal Government of Somalia Hamza Abdi Barre opened a Trauma and Emergency Center at the Somali Police Force Hospital in Medina, Mogadishu.

According to the report, the new center was **funded by donations from the Somali people following the Soobe 2 bombing** and **includes patient care, maternity, and emergency sections**. Prime Minister Hamza, via Somali Dispatch, said his administration has established several facilities, including **the blood bank, which was renovated and reopened for the first time**, and the emergency response center. He also emphasized a commitment to completing and equipping the military hospital, without specifying a timeline or named facility.

The Prime Minister thanked the **National Emergency Committee for managing the funds effectively**, according to the same report, and highlighted the center's role in providing medical care for soldiers and civilians affected by conflicts with extremist groups.

> **Note:** What the report does not establish: since the reported opening on 2024-10-30, no patient numbers, staffing, equipment status, or service delivery at the center have been documented in the source.

The Somali Dispatch text names **no project value, contract value, total cost, contractor, consultant, or client**. The report's statement that the blood bank was reopened 'for the first time' is ambiguous in scope and should be read as a quote from the Prime Minister, not an independently verified fact.

Neither the funding amount from the Soobe 2 donations nor an audit of the National Emergency Committee's management is provided. The only source for this event is Somali Dispatch, dated 2024-10-30.
