The Israeli army, which has been hitting Gaza with ongoing bombardments since October 7, 2022, does not hesitate to cause thousands of civilians to lose their lives. Finally, the images of Palestinian prisoners tortured by Israeli soldiers, shared on social media as if they were mocking them, have reached terrifying proportions.
Footage of Torture and Taunting Has Been Published
In the footage provided by the Qatar-based Al Jazeera media outlet, Israeli army soldiers were caught on camera torturing Palestinians they had captured and making fun of them by publicly displaying this brutality.
Harsh Reaction from Human Rights Group
Ramallah-based human rights organization Addameer said in a statement on the subject, “Israeli soldiers brag about their torture practices against Palestinian prisoners by openly sharing them. The lack of accountability of the occupying state encourages soldiers to deliberately document their acts of torturing Palestinian prisoners and share them on social media.”
