CCTV footage has emerged allegedly showing Israel Defence Forces (IDF) soldiers sexually abusing a Palestinian detainee. Human rights groups say the abuse has been ‘going on for decades’

The abuse, torture and death of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails and detention facilities has finally been covered by the Western media following a report by Israel’s leading human rights organisation last week called ‘Welcome to Hell’ – but it has been going on “for decades”.
The international coverage of B’Tselem‘s findings – it collected the testimonies of 55 Palestinians held, mostly without charge, since Hamas launched its attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 – also comes on the heels of an Israeli investigation into the alleged sexual assault of Palestinian prisoners at one of its notorious detention centres, Sde Teiman, in the south of the country. But Israel’s investigation is a token one, ignoring many other abuses in much larger numbers, and is self-serving. Previous Israeli investigations have been whitewashed and resulted in a dismally low conviction rate, critics say. “The Occupation’s decision to open an investigation into the rape (at Sde Teiman) is not a start to anything. It’s all for show and international consumption,” Jenna Abu Hafna, from the Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association based in Ramallah, told Byline Times.
