Israeli Health Ministry Investigates Genetic Mismatch in Assuta Fertility Case
The Israeli Ministry of Health has launched an investigation following a private genetic test that raised concerns about a sperm donor at Assuta Medical Center in Ramat Hahayal. The test, conducted abroad, suggested that the sperm donor who fathered a patient's children may not be genetically compatible. Upon receiving the report on Monday, August 17, 2026, the Ministry began reviewing the details of the case, including the private test and the foreign laboratory involved. Concurrently, the Ministry is coordinating with Assuta Medical Centers to professionally examine the matter further. The investigation aims to clarify the genetic discrepancy and ensure proper protocols were followed.
