Draw is an application for vector graphics.

You can crop the image to the section, but that will be rectangle. Make 
sure you have set the correct scale for the image. Select the cropped 
image. Then use File > Export. Mark 'Selection' and choose the desired 
format, likely png or jpg, and save the section as new image. Afterwards 
you can insert the new image.

Cropping itself does not really cut the parts of the picture, but only 
hides them.

Another way for several sections is this: Insert the image several times 
(which will result in 1 image stored) and crop each of it to the desired 
section.

If you want a not-rectangle section, there exists a complicate way to 
use a combined drawing object, to hide the not needed parts. But I 
recommend to use an application specialized for bitmaps.

Kind regards
Regina
