Israeli court filing on detained Gaza doctor Hussam Abu Safiya draws criticism from rights group

LONDON: An Israeli rights group said on Tuesday that a state court filing on 14 detained Gaza doctors failed to answer “serious concerns” about the condition of Palestinian physician Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, who has been held by Israel since late 2024 reportedly without charge. Physicians for Human Rights Israel said in a statement the state’s response to the Israeli Supreme Court did not adequately address allegations about Abu Safiya’s health and treatment in detention. The group said the filing left key questions unanswered from a sworn affidavit by his lawyer, Nasser Odeh.
