Gazan authorities accuse Israel of using Palestinian organs

Ramallah, Jan 31 (Prensa Latina) The Director General of the Ministry of Health in Gaza Strip, Munir Al-Barsh, accused Israel of harvesting organs from Palestinian corpses for use in its healthcare system.

The official raised questions about the record figures registered in that country in the field of organ donation.

“The data alone does not answer the basic question: Where did this enormous quantity of kidneys come from?” he noted.

Quoted by the Safa news agency, Al-Barsh emphasized that Israeli authorities have been holding onto the bodies of many Palestinians for years and are now boasting about unprecedented donation figures.

“There are bodies that were held for a long time, then handed over to families incomplete, without kidneys, without autopsy reports, and without the right to ask questions,” he stressed.

Palestinians are not against organ donation, but they are against turning human values ​​into a propaganda facade and exploiting our bodies, whether living or martyred, to build an achievement that will be applauded globally while the truth remains buried, he stated.

He also criticized the lack of transparency and argued that the impossibility of international oversight of these operations makes suspicion a right and accountability a duty.
