IDF Has Treated over 500 Wounded Syrians
(Times of Israel) Mitch Ginsburg - Over the past ten months the IDF has treated over 500 Syrian nationals, Col. Dr. Tarif Bader, the Northern Command's chief medical officer, said Wednesday. Since Feb. 16, 2013, the IDF has treated wounded Syrians at the Golan Heights divisional medical unit or at a field hospital established to treat those injured in the civil war. Bader revealed that dozens of Syrians have been given a new life-saving treatment using freeze-dried plasma to counteract blood loss.
