Israel has said it will not release two Palestinian doctors, including paediatrician Hussam Abu Safiya, as part of the ceasefire deal, a Hamas official told CNN.

Safiya was beaten and kidnapped by Israeli forces in Gaza during a raid on Kamal Adwan Hospital in December last year after he refused to abandon patients under siege.

Footage in the aftermath of the attack showed Safiya wearing a white medical overcoat crossing a street strewn with rubble. Safiya has been held since then without charge.

    No I haven’t. And just like I don’t assume Hamas rapes and tortures every captive they take without evidence just because they’ve done it before, I don’t assume Israel does the same to every hostage they take.

    And the fact you can’t produce any of this “”““mountain of evidence””“” just shows me it doesn’t exist and you’re making shit up.

    No one had any intention to harm people, I was literally there holding a sign saying I don’t support the genocide in Palestine, and I support Palestine Action.

    Genuinely why are you trying to box me in to “the other side” because I’m just mildly critical of Hamas? And don’t think they are 100% perfectly moral and virtuous? It’s just typical purity testing bullshit.
