Gheed Kassem, the lawyer for Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, has raised serious concerns about the treatment of Dr. Abu Safiya and his nephew, Hussam Zaher, who are currently incarcerated in Israel’s Ofer Prison.

A Palestinian prisoners’ advocacy group warns that Israel continues to keep 24 doctors from the Gaza Strip behind bars under extremely harsh and inhumane conditions.

The family of the director of Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital says he has been subjected to “severe mistreatment and torture” following his arrest.

The mother of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, who was forcibly detained by Israeli forces in Gaza in late December, has died of a heart attack.

In the face of immense personal loss and grave danger, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya remained dedicated to his patients at Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza.

Despite losing his young son, sustaining severe injuries, and facing constant threats, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya refused to abandon his hospital and patients in Gaza. Now his whereabouts are unknown.
