New report reveals disturbing details of sexual assault at "Israel's" Sde Teiman prison
An "Israeli" investigative program has uncovered disturbing details about the sexual and physical abuse of a Palestinian detainee at the Sde Teiman detention center, exposing acts of extreme violence allegedly carried out by members of an elite military unit.
The report, aired Monday by Kan 11's Zman Emet, included surveillance footage documenting an incident from July 2024 in which several soldiers from Force 100 — the unit tasked with guarding Palestinian political prisoners — were seen participating in a violent assault. The footage appears to show soldiers taking turns attacking the detainee, raising serious concerns about systematic abuse within the facility.
Following an investigation by "Israeli" military police, several soldiers were taken into custody. In February 2025, the Military Advocate General filed formal charges against five of them, accusing them of severe physical abuse.
According to a report by Channel 12 News, the indictment details harrowing accounts of the victim's injuries. The detainee was allegedly stabbed near the anus with a sharp object and subjected to repeated beatings that caused multiple broken ribs, a punctured lung, and internal rectal damage.
During the internal "Israeli" investigation, one of the soldiers claimed that the detainee had resisted the assault, 'tried to bite someone and grabbed a taser,' according to official statements.
The case has sparked renewed criticism from human rights advocates, who have long warned of mistreatment inside Israel's detention facilities. Sde Teiman, in particular, has drawn international attention in recent months due to its use as a temporary holding site for Palestinian detainees from Gaza.

US considers $500 million for controversial Gaza aid foundation: Sources
The US State Department is weighing a proposal to allocate USD 500 million to the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), according to two informed sources and two former US officials familiar with the discussions cited by Reuters. The funding would come through the US Agency for International Development (USAID), which is currently being integrated into the State Department, the sources said. All four individuals spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter. If approved, the move would significantly deepen US involvement in a controversial aid operation that has faced criticism over its ability to operate effectively and safely in Gaza, according to Reuters. The proposal has sparked pushback from some within the US government, with concerns focused on the GHF's alleged lack of neutrality and recent incidents of violence near aid distribution points, including fatal shootings of Palestinians, according to the sources. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation began its first aid deliveries last week, following an 11-week 'Israeli' blockade that was partially lifted on May 19. The United Nations and other humanitarian organizations have warned that most of Gaza's 2.3 million residents remain at risk of famine. Some international relief agencies have publicly criticized the GHF, accusing it of bypassing established humanitarian norms and lacking transparency in its operations.

'Israeli' forces raid Al Jazeera office in Ramallah, renew 60-day closure order
Israeli Occupation Forces raided Al Jazeera's office in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Friday and renewed its closure for another 60 days, according to Al Jazeera. This marks the latest escalation in a series of measures aimed at silencing the Qatari-based network's coverage in the occupied Palestinian territories. The renewed closure comes after a similar 60-day extension in April. The office was first shut down in September 2023 under a military order, during which 'Israeli' forces stormed the premises, confiscated all equipment and documents, and banned staff from using their vehicles. In May 2024, the 'Israeli' government formally approved a proposal by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi to shut down Al Jazeera's offices inside 'Israel'. The decision was implemented immediately under what was dubbed the 'Al Jazeera Law,' allowing 'Israeli' authorities to block the network's broadcasts and operations within the country.
