Abstract:
Hijack terror is one of the most common terror attacks. In this paper, the definition, the present condition and future development of hijack terror are elucidated. Hijack terrorism may seriously endanger human lives, result in great economic loss, create social panic and political tumult. The medical succor for hijack terror includes treatment and transportation of the wounded, sanitation for epidemic prevention, protection from harmful agents, and medical health care. The challenges confronting medical support for hijach terror are its unexpectedness and abruptness, complexity, and arduousness in its implementation. In order to negotiate these challenges, it is imperative that a flawless counterplan should be worked out, a highly efficient counterterrorism medical organization should be established, intense emphasis should be paid in the studies of anti-neuclear, antimbiological and anti-chemical warfores, and education for psychological prepuredness should be stressed.
