Red David Shield

The Red David Shield, also known as Magen David Adom (MDA), is Israel's national emergency medical service and blood bank. Established in 1930, it provides emergency medical care, ambulance services, and disaster relief throughout the country. In recent news, MDA has been actively involved in responding to the emergency situation caused by wildfires near Jerusalem, treating individuals affected by smoke inhalation and assisting with evacuations as communities were threatened by rapidly spreading flames.
