Palestinian Hostage Describes Being R*ped by a Police Dog

A new Al-Araby TV investigative report details systematic sexual violence by Israeli prison authorities against Palestinian detainees. Filmed inside the Prisoners’ Club archive in Ramallah, the report reveals documented testimonies from men who describe being raped by Israeli prison guards — in some cases with sticks, and in others by police dogs.

One survivor, identified as “Ahmad,” recounts being stripped, bound, and raped “in a barbaric way” by Israeli guards, before being forced to witness other prisoners subjected to the same torture — acts he said were meant to “destroy us as human beings.” Other testimonies describe guards who took pleasure in the assaults — sometimes conducting them publicly before other prisoners as a method of domination and humiliation.

A Palestinian psychiatrist who treats these men tells the channel that even medical workers live in fear from retaliation and don’t speak out about the documented patterns of degradation and physical and psychological torture employed by Israel. He said victims were assaulted using animals as a form of psychological terror meant to deter Palestinians from resistance.
