Linoy Al-Ezra, an MDA Dispatch EMT, was honored by lighting the flame in Hazor HaGalilit to commemorate the 76th Independence Day. This act was recognized as a symbol of heroism by the security and rescue forces.
On October 7, Linoy responded to calls at the 101 dispatch and encountered distressing situations, including a conversation with Michael and his sister, the children of journalist Roy Idan. She instructed them to hide in a closet, ultimately saving their lives.

On Yom Hazikaron, Magen David Adom Australia mourn and remember our fallen soldiers and all lives lost by terror.
This year in particular we pause to remember all those lives who were cut short on October 7th and in the war against Hamas.
We mourn the loss of the 28 Magen David Adom personnel who have lost their lives since October 7th.

A moving ceremony was held on Thursday May 2 to dedicate 15 ambulances and mobile intensive care units (MICUs) that were donated to Magen David Adom in memory of the MDA volunteers who fell during the "Iron Swords" War, murdered while carrying out their MDA duties or killed in battle defending the State.
The ceremony, hosted by model, actress and TV presenter Miri Bohadana, was held in the presence of the families of the fallen, MDA Director General Eli Bin, members of the Israeli Friends of Magen David Adom society, MDA senior managers, staff and volunteers. The ambulances and MICUs were dedicated during the ceremony. The inscriptions on each of the vehicles were revealed one-by-one by each of the families.
The 15 ambulances and MICUs will be placed in the coming days at the MDA stations where the fallen staff and volunteers were active,and will be used by Magen David Adom staff to save lives.
The families' representative, Assaf Shemen, whose son Itamar was an MDA volunteer and IDF Paramedic who fell in battle in the southern Gaza Strip, spoke at the moving ceremony:
"We are all here because our children and relatives chose responsibility, volunteered to perform a vital service for the State and its people, and to save lives. I believe that our nation is a wonder, and what creates this wonder is the civilian population, including of course the staff and volunteers of Magen David Adom, alongside public responsibility and morality, where people are prepared to act and show responsibility for the nation. I would like to thank the donors, who have requested to remain anonymous and give their gift in secret – which according to Maimonides is the greatest gift."
