Israeli Supreme Court Halts Palestinian Hospital Removal After Doctors' Appeal
The Israeli Supreme Court has temporarily halted the removal of around two dozen Palestinian patients and their companions from East Jerusalem and Tel Aviv hospitals back to Gaza, following a petition by Physicians for Human Rights Israel. The organization argued that sending patients back to Gaza during a military conflict and humanitarian crisis poses a deliberate risk to innocent lives, especially when patients may face dire conditions and lack of medical care. The court injunction has delayed the patients' return, with hospital officials expressing concerns about the potential impact on patients' health and well-being.
