Just a moment...

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the leak of footage showing ostensible abuse of a Palestinian prisoner at Sde Teiman “caused enormous reputational damage to Israel, to the IDF, and to our soldiers.”

“It is perhaps the most serious public-relations attack Israel has experienced since its founding — I cannot recall one so concentrated and intense,” he continues.

Note: the soldiers are accused, including in statements from medical staff, of gang raping a Palestinian prisoner with a knife.
