‼️**Israeli Supreme Court extends detention of Gaza doctor Abu Safia without charge** 🤬🤬🤬 The Israeli Supreme Court has rejected an appeal to release Palestinian doctor **Hussam Abu Safia**, the director of Gaza’s Kamal Adwan Hospital, ensuring he remains **detained without charge**, according to Reuters. Abu Safia's lawyer says that he has been held since December 2024 and is currently kept in **solitary confinement** at Nafha Prison under harsh conditions. Despite suffering from chronic illnesses, the **civilian doctor** has faced **severe medical neglect, regular beatings, and deprivation of food and water**. Under Israeli law, Abu Safia has been classified as an "unlawful combatant," a designation that allows authorities to extend his **detention indefinitely** **without** presenting **evidence** or filing a formal indictment. Physicians for Human Rights Israel reported that the doctor was moved to solitary confinement immediately after filing his petition. He is one of dozens of Gaza healthcare workers and emergency responders targeted and taken captive by Israeli forces while performing their duties. Before he was placed in complete isolation, a PHRI attorney documented the appalling conditions of Abu Safia’s prolonged detention. The physician is suffering from untreated skin diseases, severe food shortages, and has been denied critical surgery to remove drone strike shrapnel from his thigh. According to his family, Dr. Abu Safia was detained on 27 December 2024, entirely **because he defied Israeli military orders to abandon his patients during an 80-day siege of the hospital**. #WarCrimes #USA complicit #Trump #Israel
