Every child gets half of their genes from the mother and half from the father, but what they get is random. Even multiple children from the same parents are not identical.
If Anna and Alice are identical twins and Ben and Bob are identical twins then children from Anna+Ben and children from Alice+Bob will (on average) have 50% of their genes in common, the same as e.g. multiple children of Anna+Ben. Genetically they are as related as siblings.
