Palestinian couple donate dead son’s organs to Israelis
Ismail Khatib said his decision to donate his son Ahmed’s organs was rooted in his memories of his own brother, who died at 24 waiting for a liver transplant, and in his family’s desire to help others, regardless of their nationality.
“I don’t mind seeing the organs in the body of an Israeli or a Palestinian. In our religion, God allows us to give organs to another person and it doesn’t matter who the person is,” said Mr Khatib, who said he hoped the donation would send a message of peace to Israelis and Palestinians.
