Occupied Jerusalem – Zaytoun News
The International Institution for Solidarity with Palestinian Prisoners (Tadamun) said that images showing the bodies of Palestinians handed over by the International Committee of the Red Cross to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, after being withheld by the Israeli army, constitute clear evidence of acts of torture and extrajudicial executions committed against Palestinians during the war on Gaza.
The organization explained that the bodies shown in the images bore marks of shackling, torture, burns, mutilation, and direct gunshot wounds to the head and chest — evidence indicating extrajudicial executions and constituting a blatant violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
Tadamun added that this documented evidence aligns with reports by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), which confirmed a consistent pattern of torture, enforced disappearance, and deliberate killing of Palestinian detainees in Israeli detention camps, including Sde Teiman, Etzion, and Ramla.
The organization called for an urgent, independent international investigation under United Nations supervision to hold Israeli leaders accountable for these crimes and to ensure that international human rights organizations are granted unrestricted access to Israeli detention centers.
Tadamun concluded its statement by stressing that these images do not represent isolated incidents but rather a systematic policy of slow execution and extrajudicial killing, urging immediate international action to protect Palestinian detainees and put an end to the ongoing Israeli crimes against them.
