An Azerbaijani Air Force unit has participated in a voluntary blood donation campaign held as part of the “For Life Without Thalassemia” programme initiated by First Vice President and President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation Mehriban Aliyeva.
The campaign aims to create a blood reserve for children suffering from thalassemia, haemophilia and leukaemia, News.Az reports, citing the Ministry of Defence.
Before donating blood, participants underwent medical examinations conducted by a mobile medical brigade from the Blood Bank of the National Centre of Hematology and Transfusiology.
The collected blood will be transferred to the Republican Thalassemia Centre after verification and certification.
