While the war waged by Israel in Gaza is about to complete its third month, the Israeli attacks on the residents of the Strip are not limited to aerial and artillery bombardment, which has so far claimed the lives of more than 20,000 martyrs and 53,000 wounded.
The occupation forces continued to abuse residents of the Palestinian Strip, detaining dozens of them – including elderly people and children – and then gathering them half-naked in a stadium in Gaza, according to pictures circulated by local media and social media accounts, yesterday, Monday.
The pictures also showed how tank nozzles were directed towards the Palestinians, including children and the elderly.
This is not the first time that the Israeli occupation has committed such a violation. Earlier this December, video clips published by Israeli and Palestinian websites showed that the occupation forces arrested displaced young men residing in a shelter center in Gaza, and stripped them of their clothes in front of the cameras.
The clips showed occupation soldiers standing in front of young men, handcuffed and naked except for their shorts, after they had been gathered in the courtyard of a school before being taken to an unknown location.
Israeli sources claimed that the arrest of the young men was to verify whether some of them belonged to Hamas or other resistance factions in the Gaza Strip.
The occupation’s behavior was widely criticized on social media and in the media, some of which are Western. However, what is strange is that Mark Regev, an advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, when he received a question from the British channel Sky News in this regard, tried to downplay the importance of the incident, and responded by saying that it is not the end of the world, and that the weather… In the Middle East it is very hot.
