Far-right lawmakers clash with Israeli authorities over detention of soldiers suspected of abuse in Gaza
Israeli far-right protesters, including members of the Knesset, clashed with military police at the Sde Teiman base in Israel's Negev desert. The protesters, waving Israeli flags, stormed through the facility's gate in support of soldiers accused of abusing a Palestinian prisoner. The Israeli military is investigating the allegations. The protesters defended the soldiers, saying they were doing their duty. The incident has sparked outrage from far-right lawmakers and protesters, who breached the base's perimeter and caused chaotic scenes. The protesters' actions have been condemned by some, while others have expressed support for the soldiers. The Israeli military has confirmed that it is detaining reservists over the alleged abuse of the Palestinian prisoner.
The IDF ensures proper conduct towards the detainees in custody. Any allegation of misconduct by IDF soldiers is examined and dealt with accordingly. In appropriate cases, MPCID investigations are opened when there is suspicion of misconduct justifying such action.
Detainees are handcuffed based on their risk level and health status. Incidents of unlawful handcuffing are not known to the authorities.
The break-in at the Sde Teiman Base is extremely serious and against the law.
Breaking into a military base and disturbing the order there is severe behaviour that is not acceptable in any way.
