#Israel / What's happening in Sde Teiman detention camp?
Sde Teiman (sometimes "Sde Teman") is Israel's very own extrajudicial "black site," where Palestinians are detained and tortured. Most are released alive but traumatized, while some have undergone amputations due to lack of medical attention.
[translation]
I want to talk about something that is not discussed enough in Israel: the Palestinian prisoners being held in Sde Teman. This is a military prison facility where detainees from Gaza are brought, sometimes even elderly women. They are simply taken there, and they are held in conditions that are simply inhumane. Conditions of: tying their hands and feet behind their backs, covering their eyes, leaving them like that for 18 hours a day, not providing them medical treatment, not allowing the Red Cross or UN access to them, not allowing them a lawyer, not allowing them a fair trial. Some are released back to Gaza after a few months, without even being charged, without being told why they were held. Many of them reach a state where there is no medical treatment for their injuries, and their hands and feet are amputated. 35 of them have died in this facility, thirty-five since October. The testimonies coming out, from Israeli doctors as well as soldiers, reports published in the New York Times, #CNN, the Israeli newspaper #Haaretz - they are blood-curdling testimonies. And we must ask, does this bring us security? Does this help the Israeli captives being held in Gaza? Would we want our captives treated this way? Absolutely not.
