"Palestinian Women Allege Abuse in Israeli Custody"
Palestinian women detained by Israeli forces during the Israel-Hamas war allege widespread physical abuse and neglect, including strip searches, beatings, and interrogations. Rights groups accuse Israel of "disappearing" Gaza Palestinians, detaining them without charge or trial and not disclosing their whereabouts to family or lawyers. Detainees have reported mistreatment, overcrowded cells, lack of medical care, and deaths in custody. Israel's military denies the allegations and says inappropriate behavior will be dealt with, while Palestinian detainees are designated as "unlawful combatants" and face prolonged detention without access to legal representation.
