Remember the palestinian whose wife became pregnant, supposedly via remote impregnation?

Well, she’s got male.

Ammar al-Zein became a father for the third time on Monday, even though he has been jailed in Israel for 15 years.

Al-Zein’s wife Dalal Rabayaa, 31, gave birth to a healthy baby boy weighing 3.8 kg at the Razan Medical Center in Nablus. The proud parents named their son Muhannad after a friend of Ammar’s who was killed by Israeli forces, she told Ma’an.

Muhannad was conceived at the Razan clinic by IVF using sperm smuggled from her jailed husband.

“My husband managed to smuggle his sperm from prison about three years ago, and we managed to keep it until I finally gave birth to Muhannad,” Dalal said. She declined to give details of how the sperm was smuggled, citing security concerns.

I’d surmise to say that Muhannad was less likely named after a friend of Ammar’s who was killed by Israeli forces, and more likely named after a friend of Ammar’s who will be killed if Ammar ever gets out of prison.
