System of sexual torture targeting Palestinians exposed in new report, with Maha Hussaini

 


Israeli detention facilities have been transformed into “black holes” where torture, including rape, genital mutilation and other sexual violence, is carried out systematically and with impunity.

Survivors recount horrific and depraved abuse, as we learn in conversation with Maha Hussaini.

She is head of media and public engagement at Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, which has published a report documenting systematic sexual violence against Palestinian detainees in Israeli detention since October 2023. 

This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada's livestream on day 937 of the Gaza genocide. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by writer and researcher Maha Husseini.
