The Jordanian field hospital in northern Gaza has carried out a blood donation campaign coinciding with the Kingdom’s 79th Independence Day.

The campaign was conducted as part of the hospital’s ongoing initiatives to promote social solidarity and support blood banks in the Strip, amid challenging health conditions and the constant need to maintain blood supplies to ensure the provision of essential medical services, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported on Sunday.

The hospital's commander said that the campaign reflects Jordan’s continued humanitarian and relief efforts, with the Jordan Armed Forces- Arab Army (JAF) continuing its medical and humanitarian role in Gaza.

He added that the campaign embodied a spirit of “solidarity and loyalty” shown by JAF personnel to their leadership and homeland, in conjunction with the Kingdom’s celebrations of its 79th Independence Day.

The campaign witnessed a wide participation from the medical and administrative staff at the field hospital, who stressed that donating blood is a humanitarian duty that contributes to saving lives and enhances the readiness of the health sector in Gaza.
