Israelis threaten to kill prominent Palestinian doctor on Telegram channel
A prominent Palestinian doctor in Gaza has spoken out against Israelis threatening to have him killed in a Telegram channel.
Dr Mohammed Qudaih, who has been working across Gaza's hospitals since the start of the war, including in the Nasser Medical Complex, said on Tuesday that he was first made aware of the threats against him by one of his followers on Instagram.
In a post on the platform, he shared screenshots of Israelis responding to a video he had shared.
The Israelis posted menacing messages that read "rat meat must be very popular" and "still alive but not for long".
Other comments read: "Let them continue to grind themselves" and "you will all die, your lives will be burned".
Qudaih said that, despite the messages, he would continue to document the atrocities he witnesses on a daily basis.
"This will not scare me, and I will continue to present and communicate everything I see in front of me inside the surgical room," he said in a post.
Nevertheless, he said the messages had been a growing cause of concern for him. Qudaih called on people to share the threats he is facing with major media outlets.
