Egypt Denies Palestinian Woman Travel Abroad, Through Rafah Gate, to Have Kidney Transplant

IMORB, July 11, 2009

I've just got a call from Paki and Christian telling me that there's a very sick Palestinian woman lying on the ground in front of Rafah gate. She has kidney problems and need a kidney transplant very soon, and as it can not be done in Egypt now for Palestinians , nor can Egypt allow her to travel abroad and have it somewhere else, the woman needs to return NOW to Gaza so she can be treated in Israel or travel to another country.

Paki and Chris asked me to send you this message quickly so you can contact Egyptian embassies again to let her go back home and spread the word to the media. If this woman dies we'll all going to sue the Egyptian government.

They told them at the gate, including the woman's family, let her die, we do not care and the border is closed.

Please, spread the word, bug the Egyptian embassies and give them the headache they really deserve.
