⭕️ Israel’s “Disco Room” Torture

Defense for Children International – Palestine has documented the ordeal of three boys from Gaza— ages 16 and 17 — who were abducted by Israeli forces while trying to reach food and then tortured inside Israel’s Sde Teiman military camp.

All three were seized at aid points, bound, blindfolded, stripped naked, and taken out of Gaza. In custody, they describe nonstop beatings, electric shocks, starvation, and exposure to extreme cold. Soldiers forced them into stress positions for hours, unleashed dogs on them, and blasted deafening music in the “disco room,” where interrogators slammed their heads into walls and tightened handcuffs until bones cracked.

The boys also recount staged psychological torture: threats against their families, edited photos meant to break them, and attempts to recruit them as collaborators in exchange for money and housing. Cells were filthy, overcrowded, crawling with insects, with rotten food and no medical care. Stun grenades were thrown into rooms at night, leaving children terrified to sleep.

All three were released in the October prisoner exchange, returning to Gaza with severe injuries, trauma, suffering involuntary urination, panic attacks, and crippling nightmares. DCIP says their testimony shows a detention system that targets children with brutality and humiliation, not for “security” but to break their bodies, terrify their families, and crush the next generation’s sense of safety.

Here is the testimony of one child: 16-year-old Faris Abu Jabal. He was abducted by Israeli forces while searching for aid with his father and roughly 25 other Palestinians near the Morag corridor on the morning of September 11, according to Defense for Children International – Palestine. Soldiers bound his hands, forced him to his knees, and an Israeli interrogator assaulted him repeatedly during questioning.

📌 Here’s what DCIP wrote:

“He struck my forehead so hard that it split open and required stitches,” Faris told DCIP. After the interrogation, the soldier blindfolded Faris and threw him into a hole, where soldiers kicked him and other detainees. The next morning, Israeli forces transported them out of Gaza to Sde Teiman in southern Israel, with a stop at the Karem Abu Salem crossing, where detainees were ordered to disembark and strip naked. Israeli soldiers dressed them in white coveralls and forced them to lie on their stomachs on the ground for an hour, during which soldiers kicked and abused them.

Faris was placed in a cell with Palestinian adults for four days before being transferred to a cell for children which held about seven of them. After this, Faris was subjected to another brutal interrogation, during which he was handcuffed to a chair with his hands bound behind his back and his legs bound to the legs of the chair. Each time Faris answered, “I don’t know,” to an interrogator’s question, another interrogator beat his head and legs.

“In those moments, I felt nothing but pain, and my sole focus was on finding a way to escape the relentless beating and suffering,” Faris told DCIP. “I endured those hours without food, water, or even a chance to use the bathroom. Fear gripped me, preventing me from asking for anything, and I often lost control of my bladder during the interrogation. Each time I did, he would strike me harder and curse at me in Hebrew, words I could not comprehend.”

Faris was then transported to the “disco room,” a concrete room with speakers that blare music in Hebrew.

“They positioned my head right next to the speakers,” he said. “The soldier present, distracted by the sound, was evidently playing a game on his mobile phone. I could tell from his tone that he had just lost. In his frustration, he would open the door and unleash a brutal beating on me, striking randomly. I remained in that room until the day's end, enduring numerous assaults, including having my head slammed against the wall, being kicked, and having my hair pulled.”

“I managed to sneak a glance for a few seconds and spotted my father in the disco room,” said Faris. “I tried to call out to him repeatedly, but he couldn't hear me at all due to the overwhelming noise from the loudspeakers.”

Faris was returned to his cell, where rotten food and frequent beatings awaited him. He declined a haircut, which was required for all detainees, and Israeli soldiers placed him in handcuffs for a full week.

“One of the most challenging moments happened roughly a week prior to my release when a jailer approached me and displayed a photo of my mother in a compromising position through my cell window,” Faris told DCIP. “They had edited a picture of her alongside a soldier. ‘Look at what our soldiers did to your mother,’ the jailer taunted. In the image, my mother was lying next to a soldier. I could see her hair. ‘Do you want to go and see your mother? Our soldiers raped and killed your mother and sisters.’ In that instant, I felt an overwhelming urge to extend my hand through the cell window, kill the jailer, and drag him inside. I unleashed a torrent of curses fueled by my rage. As a consequence, I was suspended in the air for an entire week.”

🚨The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights says it has collected new testimonies from recently released captives and documented systematic sexual torture of Palestinian detainees, including rape, forced stripping, and filming, describing it as part of Israel’s broader campaign to destroy human dignity in Gaza.

Among the cases is N.A., a 42-year-old mother from northern Gaza, who told PCHR she was raped four times by Israeli soldiers and subjected to repeated torture and humiliation in detention after she was detained while passing through an Israeli checkpoint set up in northern Gaza in November 2024.

📌 Her testimony in full:

“At dawn I heard the soldiers shouting, saying that morning prayers were forbidden, and I think it was the fourth day after my arrest from Gaza. The soldiers moved me to a place I didn’t know because my eyes were blindfolded, and they ordered me to take off my clothes. I did so. They put me on a metal table, pressed my chest and head against it, cuffed my hands to the end of the bed, and pulled my legs apart forcefully. I felt a penis penetrating my anus and a man raping me. I started screaming, and they beat me on my back and head while I was blindfolded. I felt the man who was raping me ejaculate inside my anus. I kept screaming and being beaten, and I could hear a camera—so I believe they were filming me. The rape lasted about 10 minutes. After that, they left me for an hour in the same position, with my hands cuffed to the bed with metal handcuffs, my face on the bed, my feet on the floor, and I was completely naked.

Again, after an hour, I was raped fully in the same position, with penetration into my vagina, and I was beaten while I screamed. There were several soldiers; I heard them laughing and the camera clicking as it took pictures. This rape was very quick and there was no ejaculation. During the rape they beat me with their hands on my head and back.

I cannot describe what I felt; I wished for death every moment. After they raped me, I was left alone in the same room, hands still cuffed to the bed and without clothes for many hours. I could hear the soldiers outside speaking Hebrew and laughing. Later, I was raped again vaginally. I screamed, but they beat me whenever I tried to resist. After more than an hour, I’m not sure about the time, a masked soldier entered, removed my blindfold, lifted his face covering; he had white skin and was tall. He asked if I spoke English; I said no. He said he was Russian and ordered me to masturbate his penis. I refused, and he hit me in the face after raping me.

That day I was raped twice. I was left naked the whole day in the room where I spent three days. On the first day I was raped twice; on the second day I was raped twice; on the third day I remained without clothes while they looked at me through the door slit and filmed me. One soldier said they would post my photos on social media. While I was in the room, my period started; then they told me to put on clothes and transferred me to another room.”

PCHR also documented the case of A.A., a 35-year-old father from Gaza City, who was arrested while at Al-Shifa Hospital in March 2024. He told investigators he was subjected to severe torture over 19 months in Israeli custody — including forced stripping, threats of rape against him and his family, and ultimately rape by a trained dog at the Sde Teiman military camp. He stated:

“I was moved to a section I didn’t know inside Sde Teiman. During the first weeks there, amid repeated suppression operations, I was taken with a group of detainees in a degrading manner to a place far from the cameras—a passage between sections. We were stripped completely. Soldiers brought dogs that climbed on us and urinated on me. Then one of the dogs raped me—the dog did it deliberately, knowing exactly what it was doing, and inserted its penis into my anus, while the soldiers kept beating and torturing us and spraying pepper spray in our faces. The dog’s assault lasted about three minutes; the overall suppression lasted about three hours. Because of the severe beating, all of us sustained injuries across our bodies. I suffered a severe psychological breakdown and deep humiliation; I lost control because I could never have imagined experiencing such a thing. Afterward, a doctor stitched a wound in my head caused by the torture—seven stitches without anesthesia. I also suffered bruises, fractures in my limbs, and a rib fracture.”

Another testimony documented by PCHR comes from T.Q., a 41-year-old father displaced at Kamal Adwan Hospital, who was arrested in December 2023 and endured nearly two years of detention marked by sexual torture and humiliation. He described being threatened with the rape of his wife and ultimately raped with a wooden object. In his testimony to a PCHR researcher, he said:

“One of the soldiers raped me by violently inserting a wooden stick into my anus. After about a minute he removed it and then inserted it again more forcefully while I screamed loudly. After another minute he removed it and forced me to open my mouth and put the stick in my mouth to lick it. From sheer anguish I lost consciousness for minutes, until a female officer came and forced them to stop beating me. She untied my hands, gave me a white overall to wear, and brought me a cup of water which I drank. I felt blood flowing from my anus and asked to go to the bathroom. She gave me tissues and I went to a plastic toilet there. They removed the blindfold; when I wiped my anus there was blood. After I finished and the bleeding stopped, I put the white overall back on. As soon as I came out, they blindfolded me again and tied my hands behind my back with plastic ties. I was then moved to a room where I was held with several detainees for about eight hours, during which soldiers periodically returned to beat and insult us brutally.”

🚨 Hamas has released a statement detailing the “violations by the occupation of the ceasefire agreement signed in Sharm El-Sheikh one month after its implementation.”

It reads in full:
—

We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas, reaffirm our thanks and appreciation to the efforts of the brotherly mediators, all the countries, international and humanitarian organizations, as well as the free people of the world who took a brave moral and humanitarian stand by rejecting the genocide carried out by the occupation against our people in Gaza. We also value the efforts of the mediators who contributed to reaching the ceasefire agreement.

As part of the Movement's and the resistance forces’ commitment to implementing the agreement, based on our national and humanitarian responsibilities, we call on the brotherly mediators, guarantors, countries, and international organizations to continue exerting pressure on the occupation and obliging it to stop its repeated violations and breaches, which aim to undermine the agreement and sabotage the efforts to solidify and sustain it, which have been as follows:

First: Hamas's full and thorough commitment to the agreement

Since the ceasefire agreement signed in Sharm El-Sheikh came into effect, the resistance forces have fully and accurately adhered to implementing the agreement in good faith. They successfully handed over the twenty live captive Israeli soldiers within 72 hours of the implementation’s start. They also continued their careful search for the remains of Israeli soldiers, despite the numerous complications, through coordinating daily with the mediators and the International Red Cross. This was done despite the severe field conditions caused by the war, its complete alteration of the landscape of Gaza and destruction of its infrastructure, the occupation controlling 60% of the Strip’s territory, the work being done amidst hundreds of tons of unexploded ordnance dropped by the occupation, the lack of excavation machinery and debris removal equipment, which the occupation continues to block from entering, many of the resistance fighters guarding the Israeli captives being martyred, and the bodies of hundreds of resistance fighters and Palestinian civilians disappearing with no trace, with some of them potentially being Israeli prisoners. However, the movement managed to locate 24 bodies out of 28, and through the mediators and the International Red Cross, it provided coordinates of additional locations of bodies in areas under the occupation’s control. The movement continues its intensive efforts to locate the remaining bodies. The movement has left no pretext that the occupation attempts to fabricate unanswered, consistently proving through actions and field facts its full commitment to the terms and spirit of the agreement.

Second: Violations by the occupation one month after the agreement

The occupation has not ceased since the start of the agreement to undermine and violate it on a daily and moment-by-moment basis, as well as fabricating pretexts. These include:

1. Killing and targeting civilians: 271 Palestinians were martyred as a result of deliberate shelling and gunfire by the occupation forces. More than 91% of the martyrs were civilians, with 94% of them located inside the "Yellow Line”, with the rest near it. Among the martyrs were 107 children, 39 women, and 9 elderly individuals, meaning that 58% of those killed were children, women, and the elderly. This scene highlights the continued policy of systematic killing against defenseless civilians by the occupation.

(1/4 continues below)

2. Injuries: 622 citizens were injured from shelling and gunfire, with 99% of them being civilians, including 221 children, 137 women, and 33 elderly individuals. In total, 63% of the injured were children, women, and the elderly, confirming the retaliatory and systematic nature of the occupation’s crimes.

3. Arrests: The occupation arrested 35 Palestinians, including fishermen off the coast and several others from areas near the Yellow Line. As of now, 29 of them remain in detention.

4. Demolition of homes inside the Yellow Line: The occupation continues, on a daily and systematic basis, to demolish homes within areas it controls outside the Yellow Line. This is a clear and direct violation of the agreement, and these breaches have continued uninterrupted for an entire month, leading to widespread destruction of civilian property in these areas.

5. Exceeding the temporary withdrawal line: The occupation has failed to adhere to the agreed-upon withdrawal line in the first phase, and has pushed beyond the Yellow Line by approximately 33 square kilometers. This includes establishing fire control positions within 400 to 1050 meters inside the line, and the incursion of military vehicles into these areas. Additionally, the occupation placed concrete blocks that extend beyond the Yellow Line by 200 to 800 meters along the temporary line.

6. Blocking UNRWA aid: In a clear violation of the agreement’s terms, the occupation continues to prevent the entry of humanitarian aid provided by UNRWA. As a result, more than 6,000 shipments of vital supplies have been blocked. UNRWA is the most capable and professional agency for distributing humanitarian aid, with over 77 years of experience in relief work and serving Palestinian refugees in its areas of operation.

7. Restrictions on aid and fuel entry: The occupation has deliberately and systematically violated the agreement's provisions regarding the entry of no less than 600 aid trucks daily, including 50 fuel trucks of various types. In reality, the actual humanitarian aid provided did not exceed 40% of the total trucks entering during the first month, meaning fewer than 200 trucks daily, while 60% of the trucks were commercial, some of which were registered as aid despite being commercial in nature. Furthermore, only 38 trucks of gas and 92 trucks of diesel, representing 8.4% of the agreed quantity, were allowed in. Fuel is vital to revive life by operating hospital generators, opening roads, running transportation facilities, and rehabilitating infrastructure amidst total power outages, underscoring that the occupation is deliberately and systematically keeping Gaza in a state of paralysis to prevent the return of life. Additionally, the occupation has continuously closed the Zikim crossing, which serves as a major route to facilitate and expedite the entry of aid coming through Jordan, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. The occupation also controls the types of materials allowed into Gaza, blocking essential food items like meat, poultry, eggs, and livestock, allowing only the minimum required. Over 31 days, only one truck of eggs was allowed, while tents and shelter supplies are also prevented from entering despite the harsh winter conditions, with only 5% of the urgent needs for the sector being met, deepening the humanitarian crisis.

8. Failure to operate the power plant: Despite a month passing since the signing of the agreement, Gaza's residents have seen no practical steps taken towards the operation of the power plant, even though the agreement explicitly states that preparations for its activation should begin immediately upon its implementation. This leaves the sector in a state of partial paralysis, affecting all aspects of daily life.

(2/4 continues below)

9. Prevention of infrastructure rehabilitation: The occupation continues to block the entry of heavy machinery and materials necessary for debris removal. It also prevents the entry of essential supplies to operate electricity, water, sewage treatment plants, bakeries, and hospitals. The entry of construction materials and civil defense equipment necessary for reconstruction is also blocked, systemically preventing any efforts to rehabilitate Gaza's infrastructure and restore civilian life.

10. Closure of Rafah Crossing: Despite the agreement to open the Rafah Crossing in both directions starting on October 20, 2025, the crossing remains closed since March 18, 2025, more than 21 days past the agreed reopening date. The occupation continues to prevent citizens from traveling or returning, further compounding the suffering of thousands of stranded individuals, patients, and students, in direct violation of the agreement’s terms.

11. Incitement by occupation leaders to resume war: Political, military, and security leaders of the occupation continue to openly and nearly daily incite the resumption of war and disregard the terms of the ceasefire agreement. This is done with blatant disregard for the international community and a challenge to world leaders who affirmed the importance of maintaining the ceasefire at the Sharm El-Sheikh summit. Furthermore, a week after the ceasefire agreement, the Israeli Cabinet voted to rename the war to "War of Resurrection," a move that signals their insistence on continuing the aggression and rejecting the ceasefire process and international efforts aimed at achieving stability.

12. Desecration of Palestinian martyrs' bodies: The occupation has handed over dozens of Palestinian bodies that were brutally mutilated, including bodies crushed under tank treads and others executed in the field while bound and blindfolded. These acts constitute a complete war crime and a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.

13. Detainees and missing persons: The occupation continues to manipulate the delivery of a list of Palestinian detainees from Gaza, a month after the agreement was signed. The final list, as stipulated by the agreement, has not been provided. Instead, the occupation has continued to deceive the mediators, intermittently presenting incomplete lists that omit dozens of detainees previously acknowledged. Some names are repeated, while others are those who had already been released.

The movement confirms that there are more than 1,800 missing persons from Gaza whose fate remains unknown. The occupation continues to detain nurse Tasneem Marwan Al-Hamas from Gaza, along with dozens of women and children from the West Bank, and prevents the families of detainees who have been relocated from meeting with their released relatives.

We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas and the resistance forces, reaffirm our full commitment to the agreement signed in Sharm El-Sheikh, and our ethical and humanitarian responsibility toward our people. We hold the occupation fully accountable for its continued breaches and serious violations. We call on the mediators, guarantor countries, governments, and international organizations to take immediate and serious action to compel the occupation to stop its aggression, lift the siege, allow the entry of aid, and ensure the Palestinian people's rights to security, freedom, and dignity.

🔴 BREAKING: Israel kills child in Gaza — says the ‘terrorist’ was an ‘immediate threat’ to its troops

The Israeli army said it “eliminated two terrorists” near the yellow line who “posed an immediate threat” to its troops in southern Gaza. Al Jazeera reports the drone strike killed two Palestinians, including a child, and came amid new Israeli air raids on eastern Gaza City and the south of the enclave.

The death toll from Israel’s genocidal campaign has risen to 69,179 Palestinians killed and 170,693 injured, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health.

In the past 24 hours, hospitals in the Strip received 3 bodies—one newly killed, one who succumbed to previous injuries, and one recovered from under the rubble—along with 3 additional wounded.

The bodies arrived at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis as family members gathered to mourn their loved ones:

⭕️ Haaretz: Israel pours millions into AI-hasbara, conservative/church targeting, and U.S. influence ops

Haaretz has uncovered a network of multimillion-dollar contracts showing that Israel is attempting to rehabilitate its image among American conservatives through a vast propaganda campaign spanning artificial intelligence, evangelical churches, and right-wing media networks.

The investigation reveals that since mid-2025, Israel’s Foreign Ministry, Tourism Ministry, and Government Advertising Agency (LAPAM) have routed millions through the PR giant Havas Media Germany to American contractors linked to Donald Trump’s political machine and evangelical circles. The effort is designed to “reshape Israel’s perception” amid a historic collapse in U.S. public support following the Gaza war.

https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/1987621320201314805

➤ AI manipulation and chatbot targeting:

For the first time, a state is documented trying to shape discourse through generative AI systems like ChatGPT and Claude. A clause in Israel’s $6 million contract with Trump campaign strategist Brad Parscale’s firm, Clock Tower X, directs the creation of a “Search and Language Operation” to engineer outcomes in GPT-based dialogue systems — essentially teaching AI models to frame Israel-Palestine conversations more favorably.

➤ Bot networks and content flooding:

Under the same deal, Parscale’s company will produce 100 pieces of core content and 5,000 derivative versions each month, targeting 50 million impressions across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Another $2.5 million contract with SKDKnickerbocker will develop a bot-driven program to “flood the zone” with Israel’s message online.

🔴 BREAKING: Israel Launches New Wave of Strikes Across Southern Lebanon

The Israeli military has unleashed heavy airstrikes across various parts of southern Lebanon in what Al Jazeera described as the most serious escalation since the ceasefire that ended the 2024 war with Hezbollah.

Israel’s security cabinet convened today to assess the escalating situation in Lebanon, Israel’s Channel 12 reports. The outlet earlier said that Israeli officials are preparing for a potential new confrontation with Hezbollah, aimed at weakening the group and pushing both Hezbollah and the Lebanese government toward what they describe as a “stable agreement” with Israel.

Lebanon’s Army, L’Orient Today reports, submitted its second monthly report today to the Cabinet outlining operations carried out south of the Litani River to locate and dismantle Hezbollah weapons depots and other military infrastructure in the border area.

📸 Israeli airstrike hits an iron workshop and a sawmill between the towns of Tura and Al-Abbasiyeh in south Lebanon.

More details: ⬇️🧵

Israeli military issued forced displacement orders for various towns in southern Lebanon before striking them, including Taybeh in south Lebanon.

Teir Debba, roughly 10 miles north of the Israeli border and a short distance from the Mediterranean coast, was also hit with a massive wave of bombardment:
