True or false? Palestinian man says he was used by IDF as human shield for 3 months; IDF has said practice is prohibited
[IsraelTimes] A Palestinian man testifies that he was allegedly used by IDF soldiers as a human shield for three months during operations in northern Gaza.Jamil Al-Masri, 63, speaks with the fringe far-left Uncaptured Media online news outlet. Masri says he was “starved, humiliated and abused,” and forced to search tunnels and homes under the orders of troops, beginning in October 2024, Uncaptured Media reports. The military has not responded to the report or images circulating on social media last month showing Masri with troops. The IDF said in March that it had launched investigations into at least six cases where troops operating in the Gaza Strip allegedly used Palestinians as human shields. It said that such conduct is prohibited, and that this has been made clear to troops. Posted by: trailing wife 2025-06-07 |
