*Danger to the life of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. Please share as much as possible!*

New information received from Adv. Nasser Odeh, the attorney for Dr. Abu Safiya, Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, who visited Dr. Abu Safiya at the "Rakefet" underground detention facility at Nitzan Prison, indicates a severe deterioration in his condition, to the point of an immediate threat to his life. Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) and his attorney are demanding his immediate transfer from the facility and an urgent visit by a judge to assess his condition firsthand—before it is too late.

Following new information received from a visit conducted by Adv. Nasser Odeh on July 2nd at the "Rakefet" facility in Nitzan Prison:

According to Adv. Odeh's affidavit, Dr. Abu Safiya arrived at the visit handcuffed and shackled, accompanied by masked prison guards. Fresh and severe injuries were visible on his head, around his eyes, on his ears, and on his neck, to the extent that his attorney had difficulty recognizing him. During the visit, Dr. Abu Safiya struggled to breathe and speak continuously; he appeared extremely weak, had difficulty sitting without falling over, and on several occasions leaned backward in a manner that raised concerns that he was about to lose consciousness. According to Adv. Odeh, he appeared terrified and in severe distress, and struggled to express himself for fear of retaliation. It is the attorney's direct and immediate impression that Dr. Abu Safiya is in immediate danger of death.

Dr. Abu Safiya told his attorney that shortly after the hearing (on June 10, 2026) regarding his appeal to the Supreme Court against the extension of his detention order, while he was held in isolation at Ganot Prison, four or five prison guards entered his cell and beat him all over his body, according to him with a hammer and batons. He added that since his transfer on June 24, 2026, to the "Rakefet" facility, he has been subjected to violence and beatings on a daily basis, and has lost consciousness several times, all without receiving adequate medical treatment. He told his attorney that he fears for his life, stating: "This is the last time you will see me... They brought me here to kill me. I am not imagining it. I see it. This is the end."

Following the visit, Adv. Odeh urgently contacted the Israel Prison Service (IPS) demanding an end to the abuse of Dr. Abu Safiya, his immediate transfer to another detention facility, and that he be granted urgent medical examination and treatment due to the real concern for his life.

Furthermore, Physicians for Human Rights has urgently appealed to the Attorney General, the Chair of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, the Chair of the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, the National Public Defender, and the Commissioner of the Israel Prison Service, demanding an immediate visit to Dr. Abu Safiya by an official entity outside the IPS, and to allow him an independent medical examination, due to the serious concern for his life.

Despite the High Court of Justice ruling this June against his release, Physicians for Human Rights reiterates its demand to release Dr. Abu Safiya and all other doctors held without charges or trial.

It should be noted that the "Rakefet" facility is an underground interrogation and detention facility at Nitzan Prison, regarding which severe testimonies and allegations of violence and abuse against detainees have been published in the past.

Physicians for Human Rights Israel warns that given Dr. Abu Safiya's health condition and the information provided by his attorney, any delay in intervention could put his life in real danger.

*Danger to life.*
*He must be removed from there! Today.*

@ConvoswColeman @coldxman @PeterBeinart You said “only one religion” and when Peter pointed out you’re defining 2 billion people by the actions of its extremists, you object and say you were only talking about Jihadis. Jihadism Is not a religion. It’s a violent fringe comprising less than 0.01% of all Muslims.

"There is something absurd about being told that footage of your destroyed neighborhood violates community standards, while the destruction itself continues uninterrupted. Something darkly funny about an app warning you that your post about a massacre is “too violent,” as if the violence begins with the image and not the act. The platform is offended—not by death, but by its documentation." -Taqwa Ahmed Alwawi

@lionel_trolling I’m reasonably smart and curious and grew up steeped in Holocaust remembrance and never heard the word before it was raised in reference to Platner.

@afshineemrani Have gout patients been looked at to see if they have better numbers when it comes to heart issues? My 91 year old father has had gout, and taken meds for it, his whole life. Genetically he has bad cholesterol. His dad died of a heart attack at 73. Possible the gout meds helped?

How many “bad apples” before you ask whether something is wrong with the tree?

[B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم @btselem]

New footage obtained by B’Tselem uncovers the moments when the Abu Haikal family was shot. Seven-month-old Sam Abu Haikal was killed in the shooting, and both his parents were injured. The footage clearly shows that the Israeli soldier fired at the car as it was slowing to a stop. The car was far from the soldiers and posed no danger to them whatsoever.

Moments later, in another video obtained by B’Tselem, seven-month-old Sam’s father, Fahed, is seen just after his son was shot. Fahed is holding baby Sam in his arms, trying to stop the bleeding from his head with his hands, while Sam’s mother, Daniyah, who was also injured by the gunfire while holding her son, is seen sitting on the ground, next to the car.

Last Friday, 5 June, an Israeli soldier fired at a Palestinian family driving home from a family visit, as they sat in their car in the Tel Rumeidah neighborhood in Hebron. The family was shot as the car was slowing to a stop at the soldier’s command. Sam, a seven‑month‑old baby who was in his mother’s arms in the back seat, was struck in the head and pronounced dead shortly afterward. Sam’s parents were also injured by the gunfire; his mother is still in the hospital. After the shooting, the soldier who fired and another soldier who was with him left the scene without checking the car or offering any assistance to the critically wounded baby or to his mother.

In the past two and a half years, Israel has killed tens of thousands of children in Gaza and the West Bank. The immunity it gets from the international community has led to a reality where, under Israeli rule, Palestinian lives are entirely disposable – even a seven‑month‑old baby.

@Captain24436895 @TVietor08 @PeterBeinart Actually Beinart under his response shares a link to Harris’s post. But you’d actually have to go to his page and expose yourself to the arguments to know that.

[Danny K @dannykauf]

@HouseofFlagons @RnaudBertrand I didn’t know what it was either and had to look it up, but how do you go from that to confidently asserting nobody knows something just because you don’t know it? (And then calling someone else arrogant!)

@anishmoonka @adamcarolla you were right on this one!

@grok @shahidalmakaleh @SendMe1776 @ChaseK1b @AIPAC @adamemedia1 @grok I thought you said above if the post was deleted and replaced with something less offensive, you’d have no way of confirming whether it did or didn’t happen.

@emeriticus Is this going to be Kristi Noem’s new post?

@noplaceforsheep @Frances_Coppola This contradiction is very real. It belongs to Zionists. It is extremely frustrating to anti-Zionist Jews and there are many of us.

[Danny K @dannykauf]

@davidfrum STOP using “Jewish” in place of Israeli. You’re committing the antisemitism you’re pretending to protest and endangering Jews worldwide in service of your willfully blind loyalty to Israel.

[Danny K @dannykauf]

@ScottJenningsKY Shame on you.

[Yousef Munayyer @YousefMunayyer]

As you read about the sexual abuse of Palestinians in Israeli prisons, it is worth noting that the Israeli government has denied the International Red Cross access to its prisons since 2023 and only recently, due to legal efforts through Israel's Supreme Court, has the Israeli govt agreed to allow the Red Cross into the facilities, surely after they have time to clean up, but it still REFUSES to let them meet prisoners.

Just like denying journalists access to Gaza, this isn't something you do if you have nothing to hide.

@DavidAFrench This is capitalism.
