Israel Funds Bone Marrow Transplant for Palestinian Child
(Israel Defense Forces) A two-year old Palestinian boy from the West Bank underwent a bone marrow transplant last month at Israel's Chaim Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer. The procedure was funded by Israel after the Palestinian Authority declined the family's request to fund it. "This procedure will save the child's life," explained Dalia Bessa, the Health Coordinator for the Civil Administration. Israel funds hundreds of operations and medical treatments each year for Palestinians.
