In the run-up to Passover and given the security situation, Magen David Adom blood services is asking the public to donate blood at stations opened especially today in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

The location in Jerusalem will be open until 6 p.m. and the one in Tel Aviv will be open 3-8:30 pm. More information can be found on the MDA website. Other donation sites are open, as well.

MDA asks people to donate blood, especially type O-negative, so that the nation’s supply will be sufficient for emergencies.
