An Israeli Jewish and an Israeli Arab family exchanged kidneys. Ili Halun, a 45-year-old truck driver from Acre, received a kidney this week from Yigal Azeri, a 38-year-old resident of Kibbutz Naot Mordechai, in an operation at Haifa’s Rambam Hospital. Meanwhile, at the Schneider Children’s Hospital in Petach Tikva, Azeri’s 10-year-old son received a kidney donated by Halun’s wife, Lina.
