Rayan was detained on Dec. 27, 2024, when Israeli forces stormed the Kamal Adwan Hospital, the largest medical facility in northern Gaza. His son, Moaz, who was wounded at the time of arrest, remains in Israeli custody, Wafa said.

They carried out a forced evacuation of patients and staff, and arrested its director, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. He remains detained without charge.
