In light of the recent horrific allegations of gang rape of a Palestinian prisoner by Israeli soldiers, we are sharing an important interview with Munther Amira, a Palestinian activist and former prisoner who was held in Israeli detention without charge or trial. Amira courageously details the brutal treatment, including sexual harassment and abuse, that he and others endured in Israeli prisons. This isn't an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern of systematic abuse faced by Palestinian prisoners under Israeli occupation.
In December 2023, Munther Amira was violently arrested from his home in the occupied West Bank by Israeli forces. After enduring brutal interrogations and torture tactics, he was sentenced by an Israeli military court to four months in administrative detention—imprisonment without charge or trial.
