TRT World is a free two-year-old English-language news channel from Turkey that just launched on Roku and can be seen live online and via iOS, Android and Apple TV apps.
The channel will debut a 15-minute show about illegal organ-trafficking in the Middle East this Saturday, November 11, at 4:15 am ET.
“Silent Death on a Syrian Journey,” an episode of TRT’s series Off the Grid, finds producer/director Mouhssine Ennami visiting Lebanon where Syrian refuges Abu Ahmed and Abdallah have sold their kidneys to pay for food and shelter. Ennami then tracks down an organ trafficker and an organ-harvesting surgical assistant who talk about the organ-trafficking business.
Following its Saturday premiere, the episode will also be available on TRT World’s YouTube channel.
