A new report by Tel Aviv-based +972 Magazine has documented the “systematic abuse and torture by Israeli soldiers” of dozens of Palestinian men who were taken captive in various parts of Gaza in December. (Article republished from New.TheCradle.co) Israeli soldiers took videos and photos that circulated online, showing large groups of men they had rounded up, stripped to their underwear, handcuffed, and blindfolded. The men were lined up in rows, sitting in the street, and later taken away in military trucks to detention camps. The report about their treatment by Israeli forces is based on testimony given to +972 Magazine from four Palestinian men who were later released, as well as testimony from 49 other men speaking with Arabic news outlets. “According to these testimonies, Israeli soldiers subjected Palestinian detainees to electric shocks, burned their skin with lighters, spat in their mouths, and deprived them of sleep, food, and access to bathrooms until they defecated on themselves,” the report said. Further, “Many were tied to a fence for hours, handcuffed, and blindfolded for most of the day. Some testified to having been beaten all over their bodies and having cigarettes extinguished on their necks or backs. Several people are known to have died as a result of being held in these conditions.” The report noted, “the vast majority of these detainees were civilians and did not belong to the Hamas movement, as Israeli security officials later confirmed.” In one case, the Israeli army entered a neighborhood and demanded that “All civilians must come down and surrender.” Read more at: New.TheCradle.co
