The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) on Tuesday denied press reports that Dr. Fathi Arafat, the brother of the late Palestinian president and the PRCS’s honorary President, died on Sunday in a Cairo hospital. Fathi, 71, was admitted earlier this month to a specialized hospital in Cairo to continue medical treatment for his terminal cancer and his condition described as "critical."
A Kuwaiti daily reported on Saturday that Fathi Arafat's doctors decided not to update him regarding the death of Yasser Arafat. (albawaba.com)
