Kairouan University Hospital Project to Begin in November

The member of parliament for Kairouan, Nabil Hamdi, has announced that the construction work for the King Salman Ibn Abdelaziz University Hospital project will officially start in November.

In a statement to Diwan FM, Nabil Hamdi specified that the financial disputes between the construction companies have been resolved, emphasizing that these disputes were the cause of the delay and had no connection to the Saudi subsidy.
