Well, that`s understandable, since Israel is a geography, not a person. Is the WHO writing your aritcles for you? If Haaretz bothered, the figures are readily available:
n 2007, 7,226 permits were granted to sick Palestinians to travel to Israel, an increase of over 50 percent from 2006 when 4,754 were allowed in. All of those who receive permits are allowed to bring a family member to accompany them to Israel. Since the beginning of the year, 2,317 Palestinians have been allowed into Israel for medical treatment. |
