A special Red Cross chartered plane arrived today at Ben Gurion Airport and picked up a consignment of five-and-a-half tons of medical supplies for victims of the Cyprus war. The consignment was prepared by the Israeli Red Magen David Association and was ready for dispatch a few days ago, awaiting transportation which was made available today. Yesterday the Red Magen David Blood Center shipped to Cyprus 100 units of blood plasma needed urgently for treating wounded persons. The blood units were donated by Israelis especially for victims of the Cyprus war.
