Israeli Doctor Exposes Inhumane Treatment and Amputations of Detained Palestinians
An Israeli doctor at the Sde Teiman field hospital has reported "deplorable conditions" and "routine" amputations due to handcuff injuries among detained Palestinians, leading to compromised health and violations of medical ethics. The hospital, established by the Israeli military, has been accused of subjecting detainees to constant restraints, inadequate care, and dehumanizing treatment. The Israeli Defense Forces have denied the allegations, stating that detainee treatment is in accordance with the law and human dignity. Physicians for Human Rights-Israel has documented "ethical failures" at the facility, including substantial physical and psychological harm inflicted on the detainees.
