Today, May 12^th, is the international nurses day, that celebrates the significant role nurses play in every patient's lives. We the members, staff and board of PHR Israel wish to convey our deep appreciation to all nurses working in Israel for the benefit of the patients as well as for social change.

Physicians for Human Rights – Israel strongly condemn the appalling attack in Itamar and calls the state of Israel and the Palestinian Authority to act in order to bring those responsible individuals to trial. Once again we learn that fences and security systems are not a guarantee for security. Only brave steps towards peace agreement and putting end to the conflict will bring end to these murderous acts

We at Physicians for Human Rights-Israel regard it as our moral and human duty to express solidarity with the Egyptian and the Tunisian peoples in their current struggle for democracy, human rights, liberty, livelihood and dignity.
