Doctors Against Genocide Expose Alleged Torture of Gaza Medical Staff by Israeli Forces
May 17, 2026
“ISRAELIS ARE EXCELLENT AT TORTURING PEOPLE AND THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME.”
In a chilling exposure, a Jewish medical professional has broken the silence, confirming the systemic, sadistic torture inflicted upon Palestinian healthcare workers. Among the most harrowing cases is that of Dr. Adnan Al-Bursh, the revered Chief of Orthopedics at Al-Shifa Hospital, who was targeted, tortured, and ultimately killed while in Israeli custody.
Dr. Adnan Al-Bursh was a beacon of hope, refusing to leave his patients under heavy bombardment. He was abducted by Israeli forces while treating the wounded at Al-Awda Hospital and plunged into a network of torture camps.
Hundreds of Palestinian doctors, nurses, and ambulance drivers have been systematically abducted, stripped, humiliated, and subjected to horrific abuse designed to completely dismantle Gaza’s healthcare system.
The testimony from a Jewish doctor underscores what human rights organizations have been screaming for months: the abuse inside these facilities is not random. It is an organized, calculated strategy of terror.
They didn’t just kill a doctor; they murdered a man who spent his final months saving children from the rubble.
JUSTICE FOR DR. ADNAN AL-BURSH.

English Script:
James Cobey: I’m Jewish, and I’ve been to Gaza as part of a humanitarian medical delegation. That was about five years ago, and at that time, Israel was doing the same thing it’s doing now. That was just a slow genocide. Now, it’s full out, the gloves are off and the mask is off. I’ve told many people there are doctors in arrested, but go and torture. Israelis are excellent at torturing people and they do it all the time. A well-known orthopedic surgeon was taken to their torture prison and was raped to death, raped to death.
