Still, an April report from Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, drawing on interviews with hospital workers, said doctors at the facility faced “ethical, professional and even emotional distress.” Barilan said turnover has been high.

There is a lot more in the report than the article mentions

Security forces at the field hospital require all detained persons to remain handcuffed and blindfolded at all times, including during medical treatment. Media reports indicate that Gaza residents held at this military facility endure harsh conditions, being restrained with their hands behind their backs and occasionally bound to a fence for prolonged periods, spanning entire and consecutive days. These circumstances lead to substantial physical and psychological harm.

As per a report from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), interviews conducted with approximately 100 released detainees revealed that they were blindfolded, beaten, robbed, sexually assaulted, attacked by dogs, and denied access to medical care and legal representation.

Supremacy and cruelty everywhere, nowhere is safe in Gaza

This is the best summary I could come up with:

These are some of the conditions at Israel’s only hospital dedicated to treating Palestinians detained by the military in the Gaza Strip, three people who have worked there told The Associated Press, confirming similar accounts from human rights groups.

Eight months into the Israel-Hamas war, accusations of inhumane treatment at the Sde Teiman military field hospital are on the rise, and the Israeli government is under growing pressure to shut it down.

Donchin, who largely defended the facility against allegations of mistreatment but was critical of some of its practices, said most patients are diapered and not allowed to use the bathroom, shackled around their arms and legs and blindfolded.

The military disputed the accounts provided to AP, saying patients were handcuffed “in cases where the security risk requires it” and removed when they caused injury.

Still, an April report from Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, drawing on interviews with hospital workers, said doctors at the facility faced “ethical, professional and even emotional distress.” Barilan said turnover has been high.

And the process is fraught: The medical worker who spoke with AP said one detainee with a gunshot wound was discharged prematurely from a civilian hospital to Sde Teiman within hours of being treated, endangering his life.

The original article contains 1,233 words, the summary contains 206 words. Saved 83%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
