Arrest of Doctor Amid Gaza Crisis

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya has been arrested in

Northern

Gaza by Israeli occupation forces.

He is a pediatrician and director of the Kamal

Adwan Hospital, and he's been arrested.

You might have seen a very powerful image in the last few days of a, a doctor in

a white coat walking towards an Israeli tank. Well, that's him.

He has been refusing to leave his patients in this

ongoing genocide, and horrifically,

his son has been murdered.

Activists are asking people to do something really straightforward, which

is to

get in touch with your member of parliament

to ask them, make representations through the

government to free Dr. Hussam Abu

Safiya. The normalization of targeting people

who are serving people during a genocide

is horrific. We can't be complicit in that.

We have to say that this is not in our name,

and one way to do that, a simple way, is to get in touch with

our members of parliament and say, "What are you doing?

What are you, what are you actually doing now

that you have the knowledge

that this doctor has been arrested by Israeli

occupation forces?" There is an ongoing genocide in

Gaza. The situation couldn't be more serious.

We are hearing that babies have frozen to death, that there is

a

significant risk of starvation because

food

aid can't get through. Medical supplies.

The people are in tents are being flooded. Like...

And of course, the level of death and suffering.

Tens of thousands of people have already been murdered, and of course, so

many lives at risk because of those very, very serious conditions

and the continued atrocities at the hands

of the Israeli occupation forces.

So please do something and please join in with local

actions that are taking place. There'll be something in your local

community, but

please do something.
