🇵🇸 “New Guantánamo”: Euro-Med Monitor calls for international probe into Israel’s torture and murder of Gaza detainees
Geneva - An impartial and urgent investigation is needed to probe the Israeli army’s torture and murder of Palestinian civilians detained in different areas of the Gaza Strip, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said in a statement issued on Monday.
Testimonies gathered by Euro-Med Monitor teams confirm reports published by Israel’s Haaretz newspaper about Israeli field executions of Gazan detainees. Additional detainees have died after being subjected to extreme torture and mistreatment in the “Sde Teman” Israeli army camp, located between Beersheba and Gaza.

🇵🇸 'We were hit if we didn't bark or meow': Gaza detainees reveal brutal treatment by Israeli soldiers
We were hit if we didn't bark or meow'
Former detainees in Gaza have shared harrowing accounts of their treatment during their time in Israeli custody. In a report by Al Jazeera, #Gaza civilians describe being treated like dogs, beaten for not complying with orders, and deprived of basic needs, such as drinking water.
They detailed being stripped, blindfolded, and subjected to #torture, including electric shocks and being force-fed unknown pills. Even the sick were not spared, with sick #detainees receiving increased punishment instead of care.

Video journalist Bisan Owda brings us exclusive eyewitness testimonies from survivors she spoke to in December who described the Israeli army’s torture and killing of wounded patients and doctors at the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza.
One of northern Gaza’s largest hospitals, the facility was under siege for days in November and may never open again. While some patients in critical condition were allowed to evacuate the hospital, survivors recall torture even on the evacuation route. Israel has targeted more than 150 health care facilities in Gaza since Oct 7. The targeting of hospitals is a violation of international humanitarian law.

🇵🇸 Israeli Knesset’s decision to deny Gaza detainees legal representation provides legal cover for crime of enforced disappearance
The Israeli #Knesset’s General Assembly approved regulations that prevent Gazan detainees from meeting with their lawyers for an additional four months, thereby creating a legal cover for the crime of enforced #disappearance committed against thousands of #detainees.
According to the statement, the detainees’ prolonged forced disappearance may be a sign of the degree of #torture and violence they have endured during their arrest, interrogation, and #detention. EMHR emphasised that offering legal cover to conceal detainees indicates the involvement of multiple Israeli authorities in human rights violations. This cover is worthless, however, given that enforced disappearance is considered a crime against humanity by the #RomeStatute of the International Criminal Court.

This Is Palestine: Inside Israel’s Torture Camp | www.imeu.org
In this episode, host #DianaButtu shares the horrifying details about one of Israel's secret #torture camps or Israeli prisons, #SdeTeiman, through the words of a Palestinian journalist from #Gaza, Muhammad Arab.
Muhammad's story is conveyed to Buttu through his lawyer, Khaled Mahajneh. #Mahajneh is a Palestinian lawyer who has spent most of his legal career representing Palestinians who have been tried before Israeli military courts. Most famously, he is the lawyer who represented the 6 Palestinians, who escaped #Gilboa #prison near #Jenin, after they were picked up 5 days after their prison break.
Mahajneh is the first and only attorney to visit the Israel Sde Teiman torture camp. Currently, there are over 20,000 Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza who are being held captive in Israeli prisons, some as young as 10 years old.
