British Palestinian Surgeon Testifies on War Crimes in Gaza

British Palestinian surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta, who volunteered with Doctors Without Borders in Gaza during the recent Israel-Hamas war, has given testimony to a British war crimes investigation unit. Abu Sitta's testimony focused on attacks on health facilities, including a deadly blast at al-Ahli hospital. He also treated patients with burn wounds consistent with white phosphorus shelling. Abu Sitta hopes the investigation will lead to prosecutions, and the International Criminal Court has prioritized a probe into possible crimes by both Hamas militants and Israeli forces.
