Torture in Israeli prisons: Strapped to beds, stripped of clothes
An anonymous Israeli doctor has revealed a harrowing account of the treatment faced by Palestinians abducted from Gaza. | An anonymous Israeli doctor has come forward with a disturbing account of the conditions Palestinians abducted from Gaza are subjected to. At the request of the Israeli occupation forces, the surgeon was sent to Sde Teiman military base in the al-Naqab desert to operate on a Palestinian abductee from Gaza who suffered from gunshot wounds. ● According to the doctor's account, the patients have no names. They are all strapped to their beds, unable to move. They are blindfolded and stripped down to their underwear. They wear diapers, the doctor detailed. "This is a clear violation of the Geneva Convention and the WHO Code of Ethics. It is far more than just physical and psychological torture," he stressed. ● Reports of abuse at Sde Teiman have already emerged in both Israeli and Arab media, following an outcry from Israeli and Palestinian rights groups about the conditions there. However, this rare testimony from an Israeli doctor working at the facility provides additional insight into “Israel's” policy of systematic torture and abuse amid its genocide in Gaza. It further challenges the Israeli government's repeated claims that it operates by accepted international practices and laws.
