Deeply troubling

Reading this just breaks my heart. A doctor who stayed to help the wounded is now in solitary with a heart condition and shrapnel still in his body. How can this be allowed to happen?

Family ‘deeply concerned’ for Gaza doctor’s health after transfer to solitary confinement

DUBAI: The family of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya have raised concerns over his health condition following his transfer to solitary confinement in Nafha Prison. The move came after his lawyer and defense team filed for an appeal to the Israeli Supreme Court over his continued detention without formal charges for the past 17 months, his eldest son Elias Abu Safiya confirmed. “Instead of seeing an improvement in his detention conditions or any progress toward justice, we were shocked by his transfer to solitary confinement,” Elias told Arab News from Kazakhstan.

I can't even imagine the pain he's in. Solitary with a heart condition? That's just cruel.

This is straight out of a nightmare. How do they justify this? A healer, not a fighter, treated like a threat. Just unbelievable.

SubhanAllah, where is the humanity? He stayed behind for the wounded and this is his reward. May Allah grant him strength.

It's like they have no shame at all. Locking up a doctor who's literally got shrapnel inside him. The world needs to speak up.

This is so messed up. A man giving his all to save lives and they treat him like a criminal. Makes my blood boil.

Brother, my heart aches reading this. We need to make dua for him and for all the oppressed. This injustice can't go on.
