Free Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya

Amnesty MENA writes:

More than two months since the Israeli military raided and destroyed Kamal Adwan hospital north of the occupied Gaza Strip, detaining patients and medical staff, including the hospital’s director Dr. #HussamAbuSafiya.

Dr. Abu Safiya is being detained without charge or trial under Israel’s repressive Unlawful Combatants’ Law, which violates international law. He told his lawyer he was tortured in custody.

Israel must release him & all arbitrarily detained Palestinians immediately. Health workers must be protected, not targeted.

The convoy of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was involved in a car accident, Tuesday evening, outside his office in west Jerusalem.

The accident is trending on the social media with much images including breaking news of the accident.

According to the Jerusalem Post a vehicle in the convoy hit a 17-year-old motorcyclist as it was leaving a ceremony in remembrance of Israeli soldiers killed in the war on Gaza.

KAN also confirmed that Netanyahu convoy collided with the motorcycle.

This is not the first time Israeli government officials have been involved in accidents. In April 2024, the Israeli media reported that the car of Israeli Education Minister Haim Biton was involved in a traffic accident in Jerusalem, seriously injuring his father.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was also involved in a traffic accident in April 2024, resulting in his hospitalization and treatment according to Jordan24.

The Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported that a vehicle belonging to the personal security unit of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s convoy was involved in a traffic accident near Cinema City in Jerusalem.

The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (Kan) reported that “the prime minister’s convoy was involved in a traffic accident and stopped moving.”

Kan confirmed that Benjamin Netanyahu was unharmed in the accident, which occurred near his office in Jerusalem.

The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation indicated that “the prime minister’s convoy collided with a motorcycle. Netanyahu was in the convoy, but he moved away from the vehicle involved in the accident.”

It is worth noting that this accident is not the first involving an official Israeli government official. In April 2024, Israeli media reported that the car of Israeli Education Minister Haim Biton was involved in a traffic accident in Jerusalem, seriously injuring his father.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was also involved in a traffic accident in April 2024, resulting in his hospitalization and treatment.
