As the IDF continues to fight in Gaza, it has increasingly perfected its approach to evacuating the wounded as soon as possible.
According to the IDF Spokesperson, "From the moment evacuation is required, the mobility and evacuation forces arrive within a few minutes and quickly evacuate the wounded, while continuing to provide medical treatment until reaching the point where the wounded are put on a helicopter or the motorized evacuation vehicles, from there they continue to receive medical treatment until they reach one of the hospitals in the country."
