🇵🇸 Gaza doctors seized by Israel say they were used as 'human shields' | Middle East Eye –

For several days, Israeli aircraft kept bombing different buildings and departments of the hospital. Quadcopters were shooting directly at people, including patients and displaced persons. People were killed inside the hospital," Abu Saada, the head of the surgery department at al-Shifa Hospital, said.

"They besieged the hospital for five days before they stormed its departments. They kept us [in certain areas] and threatened us [with getting targeted].

"When they stormed the ground stores, they used us [doctors] as human shields to enter and search them. They found the technical maintenance employees there and interrogated them, before they detained them."

🇵🇸 Israel arrests, tortures Gaza doctors while world watches | Electronic Intifada

We were joined by Tarek Loubani, an emergency room physician based in Canada who has worked for years inside al-Shifa hospital in #GazaCity

He discussed the #abduction and #arrest of some of his colleagues by Israeli forces over the last few weeks, including Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, the director of #AlShifa #hospital.

Tarek explained that the Israelis’ intention in taking and arresting these physicians, and subjecting them to physical and psychological torture, is meant to break the back of the #healthcare system even further in #Gaza.

“I don’t think any of them really expected, especially under the flag of the #ICRC [International Committee of the Red Cross], for them to be subject to that kind of arrest,” Tarek said.

#AbuSalmiya’s arrest, “is a classic example of how the Israeli system works: it took him in with no charges, for no reason, it’s keeping him for a very specific purpose.”

🇵🇸 ‘It’s Bisan From Gaza, And People Were Tortured At The Indonesian Hospital’ | AJ+

Video journalist Bisan Owda brings us exclusive eyewitness testimonies from survivors she spoke to in December who described the Israeli army’s torture and killing of wounded patients and doctors at the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza.

One of northern Gaza’s largest hospitals, the facility was under siege for days in November and may never open again. While some patients in critical condition were allowed to evacuate the hospital, survivors recall torture even on the evacuation route. Israel has targeted more than 150 health care facilities in Gaza since Oct 7. The targeting of hospitals is a violation of international humanitarian law.
