Biography
Adnan Al-Bursh (Arabic: عدÙا٠اÙبرش, romanized: Ê¿AdnÄn al-Bursh; 17 September 1974 â c. 19 April 2024) was a Palestinian orthopedic surgeon and the head of orthopedics at the Gaza Strip's largest medical facility, Al-Shifa Hospital. He died after having been reportedly tortured in Israeli prison after four months of detention during the Gaza war. During the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip, Al-Bursh was arrested by the Israeli military and held at Israel's Ofer Prison in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. Palestinian authorities and advocacy groups have claimed his death was the result of torture and mistreatment in custody.
