Palestinian Victims of Alleged Israeli Abuse Testify at UN

Palestinian victims testified before a UN commission about alleged sexual violence and abuse by Israeli forces and settlers. The UN’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry, led by Navi Pillay, is investigating these claims. Testimonies included Said Abdel Fattah, a nurse detained in November 2023, who described being stripped, beaten, and threatened with rape. Another victim, Mohamed Matar, recounted severe mistreatment. The inquiry aims to document human rights violations amid the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
