Israel detains Dr Hussam Abu Safia after raiding Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza

There have been calls for the immediate release of a hospital director who has been detained by the Israeli military in Gaza. Dr Hussam Abu Safia was arrested during a raid of Kamal Adwan Hospital in the north of the strip. His whereabouts are unknown. Israel detained hundreds of people including medics and patients and says 240 are still in custody. Hundreds more have since been released. Some have been describing the violence and abuse they suffered at the hands of the Israeli army. Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reports from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, Palestine. Dr Ali Elaydi is an orthopaedic surgeon, originally from Gaza. He worked in the strip as a medical volunteer in April. He says the arrest of Dr Hussam Abu Safia is likely to instill fear in other doctors who want to publicly advocate for the well-being of their patients.
