PHM-Exch> [PHMNEWS] Shatha Odeh update

[Claudio Schuftan]

On International Nurses’ Day 2022, an Israeli military tribunal sentenced
Palestinian nurse, health activist and PHM steering council member Shatha
Odeh
<https://peoplesdispatch.org/2022/05/13/israel-sentences-palestinian-nurse-and-health-activist-shatha-odeh-to-16-months-in-prison/>
to 16 months of prison and a $9000 USD fine, with a 5-years suspended
sentence on condition that she does not engage in provision of health
services. The sentence comes 10 months after Shatha Odeh was first
arrested, and will certainly undermine the right to health of Palestinians:
Health Work Committee, the organization which Odeh is director of, provided
care to more than 400 thousand people in Palestine over the course of years.
