Remember the outrage when Israel first targeted hospitals in Gaza? Now, the last hospital in northern Gaza is destroyed, babies are freezing to death & the WHO Director-General narrowly survived an attack in Yemen. This genocide is fuelled by UK arms sales & Western support.

Where are the major Irish medical organisations as their Palestinian peers in Gaza are being bombed, abducted, beaten, imprisoned, tortured, and even murdered by Israel? Where are the demands for the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital?

I urge medical professionals worldwide to pursue the severance of all ties with Israel as a concrete way to forcefully denounce Israel's full destruction of the Palestinian healthcare system in Gaza, a critical tool of its ongoing genocide. #FreeDrHussanAbuSafiya

In Cairo, we speak with British Palestinian surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta. He says Israel's ongoing attacks on Palestinian medical workers is part of a "systematic destruction of the health system" in Gaza.

The official death toll in Gaza is over 45,000, but British Palestinian surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta says there is strong evidence "the number is closer to 300,000." "This is literally and mathematically a genocidal project," he says.

May 2025 lead us to see the end of the Israeli Apartheid in Palestine. Everyone has a role to play in that, as workers, bureaucrats, consumers, voters, citizens. No one should rest until this monstruosity becomes the past.

We are extremely alarmed by the latest information we have received regarding the whereabouts of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyyah, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital. He should now be considered as victim of enforced disappeared, and as such at great risk of torture and ill-treatment.
