israel shows us all its morality;
Survivors describe rape, genital mutilation and forced humiliation carried out with impunity and shielded by authorities.............
“We suddenly found ourselves dealing with hundreds of testimonies where released detainees said they were subjected to sexual violence,” Maha Husseini told The Electronic Intifada Livestream for 30 April.
Hussaini is head of media and public engagement at Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, which has published a report documenting systematic sexual violence, including the widespread use of rape, against Palestinian detainees held in Israeli prisons and military detention camps since October 2023.
The report, “Another genocide behind walls” concludes that the horrific abuses are not isolated acts but part of an organized state policy enabled by Israeli legal, medical and judicial institutions.
Almost every released Palestinian detainee “spoke of at least one form of sexual violence they were subjected to, or they witnessed others being subjected to,” Hussaini added.
You can watch Hussaini’s conversation with The Electronic Intifada’s Ali Abunimah in the video above...........more........
