Israeli forces detained a Palestinian at a border crossing from the Gaza
Strip who was seeking medical treatment in Jerusalem, a human rights
group said.
Rafiq Ayesh Abu Harbeed, 38, went to the Erez
crossing for an interview with Israeli intelligence on Tuesday morning,
in order to seek treatment outside Gaza for a herniated disk, the
al-Mezan Center for Human Rights said.
Late Tuesday afternoon,
Harbeed's family in Beit Hanoun were informed that he had been detained
by Israeli authorities. Israeli officials could not be reached for
comment on Harbeed's detention.
Harbeed was wounded by a live
bullet to the spine during the first intifada, causing back and leg
problems, and he was applying for permission to get treatment at the
Maqasid Hospital in East Jerusalem.
Rights groups have condemned
Israel's detention of patients seeking treatment outside of Gaza,
stressing the right to medical treatment.

Israel's Violence on Palestenians
Right to Defend itself
Israel has always cried 'holocaust' tears to the world while singing the old tune of "Defending itself and its citizens".
How do they do it? By banning or killing international journalists by bribing their supportive governments.
Palestine is destroyed as a State so is Gaza. Meanwhile the "chronically suffering Israel" has developed to a point it does not need Uncle Sam anymore, see their infrastructure, see their military development up to nuclear programs... and they are the eternal "poor" in need.
