Speaking on the occasion, Sait emphasised the unwavering commitment of citizens to stand by the nation and its soldiers. "Our soldiers protect us and our country day and night, standing guard at the borders. We are fully committed to supporting any decision taken by our country's leadership against enemy nations. Through this massive blood donation drive, we are sending a clear message that we stand united with our nation in any challenging situation," he said.
Approximately 25% of the collected blood will be supplied to govt institutions, while plans are under way to send the remaining blood to military hospitals to support injured soldiers.
