Israel's top court upholds detention of Gaza hospital director without charge Israel's Supreme Court has rejected an appeal by prominent Palestinian doctor Hussam Abu Safiya, ordering that he remain detained without charge under Israel's Unlawful Combatants Law. Abu Safiya, who has been held by Israeli authorities since December 2024, is being detained at Nafha Prison, where his lawyer says he has been subjected to solitary confinement and denied adequate medical care. Israeli authorities accuse the former Gaza hospital director of having links to Hamas but have not publicly presented evidence to support the allegation.
