Dr Hussam Abu Safia’s Life in Grave Danger, Family Warns Amid Detention Claims
Detained Gaza hospital director Dr. Hussam Abu Safia is reportedly in “grave danger,” with concerns mounting over his health while held in Israeli detention.
According to accounts from his latest prison visit, Abu Safia told his lawyer, “This is the last time you’ll see me,” reflecting fears for his survival. His family says his condition has sharply worsened in custody.
Palestinian prisoner authorities allege that he has been subjected to torture and severe mistreatment while detained. The claims have intensified calls for urgent intervention and investigation into his treatment.
Abu Safia, who led Kamal Adwan Hospital in the Gaza Strip, has been in detention since 2024, with growing concern from rights groups and his family over his health and safety.
