Israeli media has released footage of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, Director of Gaza’s Kamal Adwan Hospital, in Ofer prison for the first time since his arrest in December.
Abu Safiya is regarded as one of the most prominent doctors who continued working under Israeli bombardment to save wounded Palestinians in northern Gaza.
In late December, Israeli forces stormed Kamal Adwan Hospital, arrested Abu Safiya at gunpoint, and destroyed the hospital, taking it out of service.
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 video posted on social media reportedly shows Israeli forces detaining a Palestinian Red Crescent volunteer during a raid on al-Fawwar refugee camp in the occupied West Bank.
Israel has been waging a brutal offensive on the occupied territory since the summer when Israeli troops landed in the northern West Bank in military helicopters and large convoys of armoured vehicles, attacking the cities of Jenin, Tulkarm, and Tubas. Israel escalated its attacks further after a fragile ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was signed in January.
That same month, the Israeli military launched a new offensive on Jenin and its surrounding areas, killing 25 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian health ministry.

Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, the leaders of Spain and Egypt outlined their strong opposition to US President Donald Trump’s stated plans to take over the Gaza Strip and force Palestinians to relocate to neighbouring countries, notably Egypt and Jordan.
Though Israeli and US politicians have used the term “voluntary departure”, some of those opposed to the plan have argued that the scale of destruction in Gaza caused by Israel’s war leaves many Palestinians with no choice but to leave the strip despite their desire to live in Gaza, and would amount to ethnic cleansing.
Those against the plan have instead called for reconstruction efforts to take place that involve the Palestinians and would let them remain in Gaza.
