Concerns about 'organ theft' by Israel's forces from dead Palestinians were raised by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor.

Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said on Sunday it had “concerns” about possible organ theft from Palestinian corpses, following reports by medical professionals in Gaza who examined some bodies after they were released by Israel.

Medical professionals reportedly found vital organs, such as livers, kidneys and hearts, alongside cochleas and corneas, were missing, which the Euro-Med Monitor called “evidence” of potential organ theft.

They also claimed Israel exhumed and confiscated corpses from a mass grave that was dug more than 10 days ago in a courtyard at al-Shifa.

Israel has previously denied harvesting organs from dead Palestinians without the consent of families, calling such accusations “antisemitic”.

    Euro-Mediterranian HRM is run by Ramy Abdu, who wikipedia calls a Palestinian financial expert born in Gaza, and have an HQ in Switzerland. This NCO is explicitly built to talk about Gaza, destroy stereotypes etc. And although I don’t know of their previous campaigns that much, but that one opinions drags them through a mud alright. May as well be a HAMAS project, as ‘financial expert’ from Gaza sounds a little bit fishy. I won’t put that accusation as true, but they aren’t in any sense an independent org as they are completely involved in that conflict. And even if for a good intention to save more Gazans and tell their story, they are now telling us without blinking that organ transplants are possible in unsanitary military contexts, and that’s an obvious propaganda to get likes. And what’s even worse Euronews cites them as a reputable source. There’s no need to overestimate what Israel does do Gaza, fuckers, you only weaponize anti-Gazan propaganda with such claims.
