Ichud Hatzolah in Eretz Yisrael launched its new bicycle unit in Tel Aviv in response to growing vehicular congestion in the city. The organization today boasts 1,300 EMTs and paramedics nationwide, working in concert with Magen David Adom, the nation�s primary emergency medical service provider.

Among the notable guests taking part in the ceremony was the city�s chief rabbi, Rav Yisrael Meir Lau Shlita.
