AhlulBayt News Agency: Palestinian detainees from the Gaza Strip who were recently released by the Israeli occupation army reported that the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, is being held in the notorious Sde Teiman military base which is used as a detention center.
CNN quoted two formerly detained Palestinians in Sde Teiman detention center who were released this week as saying they saw the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Sde Teiman, while another detainee who was also recently released from the same prison said he heard Abu Safiya’s name being called out in the detention center.
The CNN quoted a Palestinian citizen named Ahmed Al-Sayed Salim, 18, as saying that a doctor from Abu Safiya family was brought to the prison last Saturday.
CNN reported that Salim, who is from northern Gaza and was arrested 42 days ago at an Israeli checkpoint when leaving the northern Gaza Strip, confirmed that he knew Dr. Abu Safiya.
The US media outlet also quoted Yahya Zaqout, who was also arrested 42 days ago, as saying that he had not seen Dr. Abu Safiya, but he was in the cell next to him.
Zaqout said, “I heard them calling his name among the names they call every morning and evening, and we had men who were brought to our cell and told us they were held along with Dr. Hussam.”
Another Gazan citizen, Alaa Abu Banat, who was arrested 43 days ago while returning home, said he knew Dr. Abu Safiya, noting that the Israelis brought a medical team from Kamal Adwan Hospital to Sde Teiman detention center, according to the CNN.
“They are all still in detention, being very badly treated, especially the doctors,” Abu Banat added.
