Arab doctors protest force-feeding Palestinian hunger-striker
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAbout 20 Arab doctors working at Ashkelon’s Barzilai Medical Center are demonstrating against the hospital management’s intention to allow the force-feeding of hunger-striking Palestinian prisoner Mohammed Allaan.
The protesters include members of Physicians for Humans Rights Israel. They say that force-feeding is abusive and protest the hospital’s decision to perform the procedure on Allaan should his life be at risk.
Allaan is in stable condition at the moment and conscious.
