The partner of the woman pregnant with the fetus that is not hers addressed the case this evening (Wednesday) for the first time.
A said that they intend to keep the baby and raise her after she is born, despite the defects that came up in the tests during the pregnancy.
"We don't even hesitate or think about any other position on the issue," said A.
"We said in a second that this girl is ours."
"It's not normal, it's actually the only role they have and they messed up. From the first second that the fetus is taken in, we count the minutes" A. attacked Assuta Hospital in Rishon Lezion in a conversation with News 12. From the first second, nine months, we count the minutes until this girl comes out. .

Meanwhile, the identity of the biological parents has not yet been established, although the case was discovered more than two weeks ago.
The reason lies in the fact that a judge's order ordering a parentage test has not yet been issued, even though the medical center requested the court's help ten days ago.
Traditionally, in questions discussing adoption, Israeli courts prefer not to conduct a parentage test and give priority to the birth mother.
However, in this case the judges will be required to give a moral and value decision.
At the moment the court is procrastinating, to examine the legal meanings and consequences of any scenario that arises.
It is likely that eventually an order will be obtained ordering a paternity test for the couple who are apparently the biological parents of the fetus, but in the scenario that such an order is not received - the parentage will pass to the surrogate mother.
In addition, in such a case the biological parents will be able to appeal the decision.
If after the tests there is a match - the issue will become legal, and each party will have to decide in front of their lawyers if they will claim the baby and how they want to do it.

If both couples want a baby, the court will be required to decide on the matter, and until the decision is made, the baby will be under the permission and responsibility of the birth mother.
If the court decides that the birth mother will be considered the mother of the baby, an adoption order will probably be needed, compared to the biological parents who will not be required for this type of order.
The hospital responded: "Assuta expresses regret for the rare case that happened in the IVF unit in Rishon Lezion. This is a tragic human error and Assuta is doing everything in its power to find advanced solutions to improve the process, so that such a case will never happen again."
