Al-Shifa hospital director Mohammed Abu Salmiya was among dozens of Palestinians released and returned to Gaza for treatment.
Palestinian men who had been detained by Israeli forces arrive after their release for a check-up at the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip on July 1, 2024 amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement.
Abu Salmiya said he and other prisoners were put through “severe torture” in Israeli prisons, after being detained since the October 7 cross-border attacks by Hamas.“Several inmates died in interrogation centres and were deprived of food and medicine,” according to Abu Salmiya, who said he still had a broken thumb.“Detainees were subjected to physical and psychological humiliation.
After crossing back to Gaza near the city of Khan Yunis, five detainees were admitted to Al-Aqsa hospital and the others were sent to hospitals in Khan Yunis, a medical source said.Rights groups sue Netherlands again over jet parts to Israel
