Gaza Herald – Attorney Ghadeer Qassem revealed shocking details about Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, held in Israeli occupation prisons. His health is rapidly deteriorating; he suffers from severe heart problems and extreme physical exhaustion, while the prison administration enforces a dual policy of medical neglect and repeated physical assaults.
On October 14, 2025, Dr. Hossam was subjected to a violent raid by a special unit, resulting in injuries to his hand and eye. He also faced another assault on September 27 while returning from a lawyer’s visit. His last visit on October 15 lasted just 15 minutes under heavy security, and he was unaware his court session was scheduled the following day.
His detention remains political and arbitrary, used by Israeli authorities as a bargaining chip, highlighting ongoing violations against Palestinian prisoners, including torture and medical neglect, in blatant disregard for international law.
