Israeli forces have detained Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the last functioning medical facilities in northern Gaza. The raid, which also involved the arrest of other staff members, has drawn criticism from Palestinian health officials who accuse Israel of targeting critical healthcare infrastructure. Patients, including critically ill individuals, were reportedly forced to evacuate and transferred to another hospital. Israel claims the hospital director is a suspected Hamas operative but has not provided evidence. The incident occurs amid ongoing military operations and rising civilian casualties in Gaza.
