Poh Si Teng and her documentary American Doctor, her feature directorial debut about doctors working amid the war in Gaza, which world premiered at Sundance, were in focus Tuesday morning at the industry conference of the 23rd edition of the Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival (CPH:DOX).

Teng found Dr. Mark Perlmutter (“an incredible storyteller”) and his colleagues Dr. Thaer Ahmad and Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, providing emergency care in Gaza, inspiring. “I thought if I could learn something from them, then maybe people watching would be able to lear something too,” she emphasized.

It’s hard to make a documentary about the war in Gaza that does not feel overtly political. And yet director Poh Si Teng’s unflinching new exposé, American Doctor, is first and foremost a humanitarian story — one in which medicine and moral decency take precedence over partisanship.

Which isn’t to say that this very hands-on look at three American physicians volunteering in Gaza isn’t also a political statement. By its very existence — and in what it reveals about the IDF’s killing, maiming and wounding of Palestinian civilians over the past few years — the film is a condemnation both of Netanyahu’s far-right war machine and the U.S. government’s steadfast support of it.

Israel’s top military lawyer has dropped all criminal charges against five Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reservists who brutally assaulted—including raping—a Palestinian detainee held at the notorious Sde Teiman military detention centre during Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.

The only person now facing charges and even a jail sentence relating to the events is Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi—the IDF’s previous Military Advocate General who exposed the crime in the first place and initiated the original investigation and indictments. It was Tomer-Yerushalmi who released in August 2024 the infamous video showing the soldiers surrounding and raping a blindfolded Palestinian detainee against a wall for around 15 minutes.

Investigators are examining allegations against Tomer-Yerushalmi linked to the leak and related actions, such as obstruction or false statements, abuse of office, and disclosure of official information by a public servant. If convicted she could face up to three years in prison.

Since October 2023, Israel’s genocidal military campaign in Gaza has led to the collapse of nearly every pillar of the territory’s healthcare system. The Israeli occupation forces bombed hospitals, killed medical personnel, obstructed humanitarian convoys, and decimated critical infrastructure. Major human rights organizations have documented that the destruction of healthcare in Gaza is systematic and deliberate; even so, they often stop short of naming what this truly represents: not an isolated wartime tactic but the culmination of a long-standing policy. Indeed, the erasure of Gaza’s health system began long before this latest episode of the genocide against the Palestinian people. It is the result of a sustained, calculated strategy aimed at rendering Palestinians unhealable, unhelpable, and ultimately perishable.

This policy brief introduces de-healthification as the governing logic of health under settler colonialism: the systematic degradation, obstruction, and weaponization of the very conditions that make health of the Indigenous population possible. In Palestine, Israeli de-healthification does not simply “attack healthcare;” it restructures health itself into a domain of domination, where illness and vulnerability are deliberately produced and administered. Within this colonial regime, unhealth becomes both a condition for rule and an instrument of control. De-healthification thus functions as the health-specific manifestation of the logic of elimination, through which the settler colonial state sustains itself by manufacturing illness, dependency, and the degradation of the conditions of life among the colonized Palestinian population.

Latest update from the Sameer Project's Food & Water Project:

Thu, Mar 12: $299,896 for 2.4 million liters & over 10,000 meals!

"The situation in Gaza remains dire as borders closed for a few days last week, and now they are barely letting anything in. Today our team informed us that there is no meat left in the market and that gas prices for water trucks shot up due to the shortage. The military occupation is punishing Gaza due to the regional war that is occuring between them and Iran, and the most vulnerable end up paying the price. We pray for the victory against our oppressor and ask for your continuos donations and support!"

If you've anything to spare, any amount is incredibly welcome!

BBC Breaks Law by Failing to Say If It Made Calls to Israeli Embassy | Novara Media (2026-03-16)

A few days ago, I was walking with a friend through the tents in al-Mawasi, southern Gaza. We were heading to a small cafe I have frequented since my roof became fabric.

The ground beneath us was mud, the winter air heavy, and the faces around us heavier still. We were talking about the formation of the US-led “Board of Peace”, in a phase of the so-called ceasefire that is supposedly defined by stability and reconstruction.

At that exact moment, the sound of an explosion tore through the air. We stopped talking, and I found myself asking: how is this a ceasefire? How can peace be declared while explosions still echo above our heads?

Civilians covered in dust. Blood-stained school bags. Hospitals turned into military targets.

These stark scenes from the war on Iran mirror, many Iranians now say, those in Gaza they once watched on their screens.

For Palestinians, the images from Iran are hauntingly familiar. Successive air strikes on civilian infrastructure. Scores of deaths. Scenes that force them to relive more than two years of genocide.

“If this war continues for a few more days, nothing will remain of Tehran,” says Hamed, 31, speaking to Middle East Eye in the Iranian capital.
