5/5 Israel must immediately release all Palestinians arbitrarily detained, including health workers. Hospitals and health workers are not targets. The int'l community esp Israel's allies must act to bring an end to Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza #EndGazaGenocide
4/5 Since the beginning of its genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, Israel has detained hundreds of Palestinian healthcare workers from Gaza without charge or trial. Health workers have been subjected to torture and other ill-treatment and been held in incommunicado detention.
3/5 The raid, the latest in a series of attacks on healthcare facilities in North Gaza over the past two months, put Kamal Adwan, the last remaining major hospital in the area, out of service.
2/5 For months Dr. Abu Safiya has been the voice of Gaza’s decimated health sector, appealing for the protection of his hospital and working under inhumane conditions, including following the killing of his son.
1/5 We are extremely concerned over the fate & wellbeing of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan hospital who was detained by Israeli forces along with others during a raid on the hospital on 27 December. He must be released immediately and unconditionally.
In the face of Trump’s mass deportation agenda, CA must set a model of inclusion for the nation.
Our leaders must IMMEDIATELY use every tool at their disposal to protect and defend our immigrant neighbors - and our deepest values.

The Director of the UN's New York office just resigned after thirty years at the organisation over the UN's handling of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.
The entirety of his resignation letter is a necessary read but this first page blew me away.
Israeli historian Ilan Pappé says Netanyahu is using Holocaust rhetoric to make the Hamas operation on October 7 seem like an existential threat to Israel while ignoring the occupation of Palestine and siege of Gaza.
"This is an attempt to Nazify the Palestinians.”
Antiwar protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza repeatedly interrupted Antony Blinken during a Senate hearing on Tuesday where the U.S. secretary of state was pushing for a $106 billion funding package, including $14 billion in military aid for Israel.
