Articles - The Zionist Entity and the Theft of Human Organs from Palestinians.

For over 70 years, the Palestinian people have been subjected to various forms of crimes by the occupying forces among these crimes there has been another form of crime that remained hidden for a long time before it was uncovered.

The Zionist occupation authorities have been engaged in the stealing of organs from the bodies of Palestinian martyrs, as admitted by the perpetrators themselves through testimonies of doctors who participated in this heinous criminal operation.

Testimonies of Zionists admitting to stealing human body organs from Palestinians

The book "On Their Dead Bodies" contains the confessions of an Israeli doctor regarding the theft of organs from Palestinian martyrs.

In a book by forensic and humanitarian medical scientist Dr. Ma'irah Weiss, during her work at the Israeli Forensic Medicine Institute from 1996 to 2001, she revealed that the bodies of Palestinian martyrs were routinely emptied of most of their organs. Additionally, parts of their skin, especially from the back, were obtained so that the signs of dissection would not be visible on the body when returned to the martyr's families.

The director of the Israeli Skin Bank confesses: We have stored several meters of human skin.

The director of the Israeli Skin Bank confessed in a televised investigation aired in 2014 on an Israeli channel that Israel's reserve of "human skin" had reached 170 square meters which is a huge number relative to the country's population. During the investigation, several high-ranking Israeli officials admitted to extracting organs from the bodies of Palestinian "dead" and African workers, using them all for treatment of Israelis, and also for medical research in medical laboratories at Israeli universities.

The Israeli forensic medical director confesses to the heinous crimes against the bodies of martyrs.

Israeli Chief Medical Examiner Yehuda Hiss admitted to committing monstrous crimes against the bodies of martyrs, stating that they collected skin, organs, and tissues from the bodies of Palestinian martyrs without informing their families, acknowledging the theft of human organs, tissues, and skin from Palestinian martyrs at different times without the knowledge or consent of their relatives.

A Swedish journalist documents the Zionist entity's crime against the bodies of martyrs in a pictorial book.

Swedish journalist Donald Boström, dubbed by some as "the Troublemaker," documented the Zionist entity's crimes against the bodies of martyrs in a pictorial book. Boström, who shook the state of the occupation with many damning truths during his coverage in Palestine in the 1990s as a journalist and photographer published the famous case in 2009 about the looting and sale of organs and bodies of Palestinian martyrs. This provoked the ire of the occupation state and strained relations between it and Sweden at the time.

Boström stated in numerous interviews that he faced a lot of pressure not to show the photos he took during his coverage of events in Palestine. However, he documented and published some of them in a book released in 2001 comprising more than 200 photos that provided compelling evidence of the violations committed by the occupation forces against Palestinians and their bodies. He recounted the story of the Palestinian young man Bilal Ahmed Ghanem, whom Israeli soldiers treacherously killed with gunfire in the West Bank. When his family received his body just a few days after his martyrdom, they found it bearing a long incision stitched from the neck to the abdomen, in addition to disfigurement of his back skin and missing organs.

The Zionist occupation's detention of the bodies of Palestinian martyrs.

The Zionist entity has pursued a policy of holding the bodies of martyrs and stealing their organs since 1948 in what is known as "numbered graves." Since 2015, Israel has started storing the bodies of martyrs in refrigerators as part of a systematic policy allowing them to steal more organs or use them for experiments and studies in Israeli medical colleges.

The Zionist entity holds more than 370 bodies of Palestinian and Arab martyrs who were martyred in various circumstances and in different years until 2023.

The largest skin bank ever

Israel possesses the world's largest "human skin bank," surpassing the American Skin Bank established 40 years earlier. Despite the population difference between America and the Zionist entity, the Zionist entity's reserve of human skin amounts to 170 square meters. This reveals that the source of all this human skin and organs is Palestinian martyrs.

In recent years the occupation has resorted to maintaining a legal cover allowing the detention of Palestinian martyrs' bodies and the theft of their organs, including a 2019 Supreme Court decision allowing the military commanders to detain and temporarily bury the bodies in what are known as "numbered graves." The Israeli Knesset passed a legislation at the end of 2021 empowering the police and army to retain the remains of Palestinian martyrs.

Genocide in Gaza and organ theft.

Based on statements by doctors at the Youssef al-Najjar Hospital in Rafah, occupation soldiers transferred 80 bodies of martyrs to settlements in the Gaza Strip, then stole human organs from the bodies, especially the martyrs' skins. Examinations revealed that 17 martyr bodies had their scalps removed, and other bodies arrived as dismembered pieces with kidneys, corneas, spinal marrow, and other organs stolen. The martyrs' families affirmed the difficulty of identifying their children due to the mutilations inflicted on the bodies.

Organ theft and international conventions.

This inhumane behavior, contrary to all international humanitarian treaties and laws, especially Articles 15, 17, 120, and 130 of the Geneva Conventions, is a stain on humanity's conscience. That is If international entities and organizations do not fulfill their duty to expose and condemn this heinous crime and establish an impartial international investigation committee to hold its perpetrators accountable, and hasten to disclose the abducted from Gaza, alive or dead.
