Awake Goy Days of Palestine, Gaza Strip -Israeli occupation forces kidnapped on Tuesday Palestinian patient from Gaza Strip en route to receive medical treatment in occupied West Bank.
Legal sources said that 19-year-old Mohamed abul-Foul was kidnapped while in his way out of the besieged Gaza Strip through the Erez Crossing.
The sources said that the Israeli occupation forces at the Crossing said that he was called for to be only interrogated.
Abul-Foul was wounded several months ago and had previously travelled to Nablus for treatment, the legal sources said, noting this is the seventh Palestinian patient to be kidnapped at Erez since the start of the year.
Erez is the sole crossing open for pedestrian travel between the Gaza Strip and Israel, and an Israeli military blockade imposed on the territory for a decade severely restricts Palestinian movement through the border.
Seeking medical treatment in Gaza, where nearly 20 hospitals and 60 primary healthcare facilities were damaged or completely destroyed during the Israeli offensive 2014, is difficult due to Israeli restrictions on entrance of medical equipment and medicines.
Many of Gaza’s 2 million Palestinian residents are as a result forced to either go without care or find a way to access treatment provided outside of the Palestinian territory.
