Investigation Finds Israel Uses Electric Shocks on Palestinians
An investigative report by The Guardian reveals that Israeli occupation forces are using electric shock devices manufactured by the American company "Axon" to torture Palestinian prisoners inside Israeli prisons. The investigation points out that the American company continues to supply Israel with these devices, despite evidence of their use in torture practices, including documented cases where prisoners were subjected to repeated shocks and sustained long-term physical injuries. The report mentions that Palestinian prisoner "Isa," who was arrested in January 2024 after losing both of his feet due to an Israeli attack, was repeatedly subjected to electric shocks over more than a year and a half, resulting in visible scars on his body. Similar methods are reportedly being used on several other prisoners. Human rights organizations have clarified that Israel ignores reports of abuses and continues to import and utilize these torture tools, despite international calls to ban the export of instruments used for torture. This investigation comes amid repeated accusations of Israel resorting to sexual torture and electric shocks against prisoners, with international reports indicating a rise in human rights violations since October 2023.
