Original Note:
DNA testing is not banned in Israel. The Genetic Information Law, passed in 2000 amid privacy concerns, conditions domestic testing on a doctor's prescription or court order, & that testing be done by accredited labs. Commercial ancestry tests can be purchased from abroad. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3960049/#:~:text=Genetic%20information%20law%20–%202000&text=The%20law%20deals%20with%20all,give%20genetic%20counseling%20in%20Israel https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/Documents/Issues/Disability/SR_Disability/BioethicsDisabilities/Israel.doc
