    A 2025 report from #AmnestyInternational, which has also called for his release, said that the Gaza-based physician “was detained in the course of caring for his patients and carrying out his #medical duties.”

    Amnesty also noted that, prior to his detention, #AbuSafiya and other colleagues at the Kamal Adwan Hospital had “provided human rights and humanitarian organizations with reliable information about the #health situation” in #Gaza, which has been left devastated by years of Israeli attacks that have killed at least 72,000 Palestinians.

  3. I need help.

    I am looking for information about uniforms used in #Gaza.

    Israeli sources using the image of Dr. #AbuSafiya in blue uniform during a gathering in 2016 as the "proof" that he's not an innocent doctor, but a Hamas commander.

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT HIS BLUE #UNIFORM IS?

    Or any information about different uniforms used in Gaza?

    I really appreciate your help.

    WHY is Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, former director of Al-Shifa Hospital still imprisoned?

    WHY doesn't anybody speak up for him?

    I guess Dr Abu Safiya is still in detention?

    Why wasn't he on the prisoner exchange list?

  6. CNN reports that Israel has refused to release two abducted Palestinian doctors, renowned pediatrician Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and Dr. Marwan Al Hams, deliberately excluding them from the ceasefire and prisoner swap agreement.

    This is despite the fact they had initially agreed to release them, but removed their names from the list.

    This is why Palestinians didn't want to release the captives all at once. But sadly, they were forced to.

  7. Gaza doctor Abu Safiya given 'two spoonfuls of rice a day' in Israeli jail

    Lawyer details grim condition for Palestinian doctor, who is held in an isolated underground cell

    In an interview with Arab48, published on Thursday, lawyer Gheed Kassem said that the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, located north of the #Gaza Strip, had faced severe physical assault that resulted in bruising to his head, neck, rib cage, and back.

    When Dr #AbuSafiya requested medical assistance for complications stemming from the beatings, including an irregular heartbeat, his request was denied.

  8. Lawyer of Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, currently imprisoned by Israel, wrote:

    Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya is not okay.
    My last visit to him was on July 9, 2025.
    He has lost over 40 kilograms — more than one-third of his body weight.
    At the time of his arrest, he weighed 100 kg — today, he weighs no more than 60 kg.

    On June 24, 2025, he was severely beaten.
    His room (Room 1, Section 24 – Ofer Prison) was specifically raided.
    He was brutally assaulted in the chest area and sustained severe bruises to the face, head, back, and neck.
    The beating lasted approximately 30 minutes.

    Dr. Hossam requested medical care, proper testing, and to be examined by a cardiologist — but his request was denied.
    He suffers from irregular heartbeat. His eyeglasses, which had recently been sent to him through his lawyer, were broken.

    He is still wearing winter clothes while enduring starvation, torture, solitary confinement, and total deprivation — buried underground, with no exposure to sunlight.

    Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, like all Palestinian detainees, is not okay.

  9. 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.

  10. An interview with Albina #AbuSafiya, wife of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, the abducted director of #KamalAdwan #Hospital at #BeitLahiya in #Gaza. Having been detained in the #SdeTeiman military base, he's been transferred to Ofer Prison near Ramallah.

    The @Bundesregierung refuses to demand the release of Dr. Abu Safiya, whom #Israel tried to kill several times.

    »The Israeli army was deliberately targeting Hussam. [In the days leading up to his injury,] they bombed his office, and when he moved to meet with doctors on the hospital stairs, they fired a bomb there.

    On Nov. 23, 2024, they fired a sound bomb [from a drone] into the room he was in. He was unable to leave the room quickly enough, and the bomb exploded and injured his thigh. But there was no specialized doctor to treat him, so the medical staff gave him simple first aid and some painkillers. He continued his work using a crutch for a while. He was thinking about the patients, companions and displaced people in the hospital.«

    During an Israeli siege on the hospital in late October, an Israeli drone strike on the facility’s gate killed Abu Safia’s eight-year-old son, Ibrahim.

    Another Israeli drone strike on November 23 wounded Abu Safia as he was exiting the operating room.

    Abu Safia was last seen on December 27 as he walked towards an Israeli tank through the rubble that remained after Israeli forces heavily bombarded the hospital.

  14. Today, on behalf of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s family, we filed an urgent request with the Israeli military for information on his current whereabouts. The director of Kamal Adwan #Hospital was abducted on Friday after refusing to leave until every last patient was evacuated.

    “After Dr. Adnan al-Bursh died in Israeli prisons, amid reports suggesting he may have been raped to death, and with every medical professional subjected to torture for no apparent reason other than their commitment to duty in Gaza’s hospitals, is the world waiting for another story about the death of Dr. Adnan Abu Safiya in Israeli prisons?” asked Maha Hussaini, a Palestinian activist.
