Seized from a Gaza hospital, Dr Hussam Abu Safiya still held by Israel a year on

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, a Palestinian doctor, has been held in Israeli detention for a year without charge or trial after being seized by Israeli forces from Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza. He is being held under Israel's "illegal combatant" law, which permits indefinite detention, and his detention has been extended multiple times. Family members and rights advocates allege he has been subjected to torture, denied medical care for serious health conditions, and has lost over a third of his body weight. A campaign has been launched in London demanding his release and calling attention to the thousands of other Palestinians held in Israeli prisons.
