His white coat stands out in stark contrast to the gray ash and rubble surrounding the hospital he had been fighting tirelessly to defend for the past few months. Two massive tanks, their guns pointed in his direction, stand ready to fire. A voice calls out from the tank, calling the name that has now become a symbol of steadfastness, heroism, and tragedy in Gaza: Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya.
This is the scene that played out on December 27, as the Israeli army made its final move towards the Kamal Adwan Hospital, which it had been besieging and attacking for weeks as part of its ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign in north Gaza.
Upon being summoned by the soldiers, Dr. Abu Safiya ventured out amidst the rubble towards the tanks, in a now viral photo, which supposedly caught the last moment he was seen before being abducted by the Israeli army. Eyewitnesses in the hospital say that Dr. Abu Safiya, despite the imminent danger awaiting him, did not hesitate to go out to the army – once again, putting himself on the front line to protect the hospital and the patients and staff inside.
The Israeli military would later release recordings documenting the moment Dr.Safiya approached the tank. Through the loudspeaker from inside the tank, the soldier orders the doctor to lift his sweater for inspection. The soldiers then open the door for him; he lowers his head to enter and extends his hand to shake hands with the Israeli officer, who shakes his hand and says to him in Arabic: “Good morning. Come in. Come in, doctor, how are you? Is everything okay?”..........more.........
