Coffee morning

February 2026

The group will be hosting a coffee morning at St Thomas’s church in the centre of Salisbury starting at around 10:00 this Saturday 28th. It would be a good opportunity to come and meet if you are thinking of joining us. We shall have a suggested action for people to take concerning a surgeon, Dr Hussam Abu Safiya (pictured), who was seized from a hospital in Gaza and who’s whereabouts in Israel are currently unknown. He has probably been severely mistreated. We are asking people to write to the IDF to ask for his whereabouts to be made known, for assurances that he is not being tortured, to have access to legal advice and to receive medical treatment.

Considerable international disquiet has been expressed about this man, and how he has been treated. The Israeli media are now saying, 14 months later, that he is a member of Hamas.
