One after another, two cargo airplanes landed today, with 8 new ambulances and M.I.C.U (Mobile Intensive Care Unit), that were transported to MDA stations in the north of the country, in order to reinforce the ambulance formation that is in the region for the past 27 days. The ambulances were contributed by Canadian Jews, who immediately responded to MDA’s request for help. One evening was enough to raise the generous contribution.
The activities of the Canadian friends is as an acknowledgment to the efforts of MDAS teams who have treated over 2000 casualties since the war began, showing bravery on arriving first-on-scene and treating casualties under missile attacks.
The new ambulances will raise the ability of MDA to treat and transfer casualties, and enable prompt treatment in events requiring multiple treatment zone, as was seen last night in Haifa, when a Katyusha rocket hit an apartment building and other sites simultaneously.
