Doctor Hussam Abu Safiya, the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, appeared with his both hands and feet shackled, for the first time since his arrest by Israeli forces last December.

According to his family, Abu Safiya was subjected to severe torture and starvation inside Israeli prisons, a claim confirmed by a lawyer who recently visited him.

A group of healthcare workers called Doctors Against Genocide gathered at the US Senate’s Hart office building in Washington, DC, to meet senators and advocate for the protection of their colleagues in Gaza.

They also called for the release of Hussam Abu Safia, director of northern Gaza’s Kamal Adwan Hospital, who was taken by Israeli forces during a December 27 raid that left the facility destroyed.

An Israeli air raid killed Dr Thabat Salim, a 30-year-old female neonatal doctor, in the central Nuseirat refugee camp on Friday.

“She was Palestinian. She was living in Gaza. She was a woman of reproductive age. She was a doctor. She worked in a hospital. She cared for Palestine’s next generation; newborn babies. These factors should have made her a symbol of hope and healing. Instead, they culminated in her murder.”

One doctor’s recommendation to deny a 43-year-woman coverage “contained errors on practically every aspect” of her condition, the Labor Department said in 2012.

United and other insurers continued to hire the doctor over the next decade.

“Dr Abu Safia is one of the most outspoken physicians in north Gaza, speaking on behalf of the people of the north Gaza… and them [the Israelis] detaining him, beating him and questioning him, has been undeniably intentional, so that they could make anyone who questions their behaviour punishable.”

“It is a warning to every other physician to not speak out for their patients.”

Dr Ali Elaydi, an orthopaedic surgeon

It's antisemitic to share and like this post.

#Israel went from blaming #Hamas for attacks against #hospitals into destroying every single one of them, torturing & murdering the #doctors & nurces, blowing up #ambulances & setting the hospitals on fire with total impunity.

But we who expose their crimes are being isolated, punished & attacked.

After being diagnosed with a cancer that he didn’t actually have, Olson dropped out of college, moved back in with his parents and began his doctor's prescribed regimen: four straight days on chemo, four weeks off.

Olson endured this for nine years.

Anthony Olson was told that he’d die without the treatment and to ignore a negative biopsy. He’s one of many patients who, court records show, received harmful or unnecessary treatments from Montana oncologist Dr. Thomas C. Weiner.
