On 10 April 2024, a devastating incident occurred in Veerab, Tehsil Durajji, District Hub, resulting in the loss of 17 lives and leaving 40 individuals severely injured. Immediately following the incident, First responder to the emergency was Jam Ghulam Qadir Govt Hospital, Hub with Edhi Foundation.

Given the severity of some injuries, a decision was made to transfer the seriously injured individuals to the Trauma Center in Karachi for specialized medical care and treatment which is beyond the capabilities of the Jam Ghulam Qadir Govt hospital. This decision was crucial in ensuring that the injured received the necessary medical attention to improve their chances of recovery.
