Facing Battle

Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh, stands unarmed facing the occupation tanks before his arrest.

This is what Anas Al Sharif wrote:

“In a world dominated by the law of the jungle, where crimes are committed with impunity and without supervision under the eyes of the so-called international community, the occupation army arrested Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh, our proud mountain, son of Jabalia camp, whose only crime was his loyalty to his humanitarian message and his remaining by his patients’ side until his last breath.

Freedom for Abu Elias and salute for his honorable positions, and shame and disgrace to everyone who colluded by their silence or participated in the chapters of this crime.”

    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.
