Israel is obstructing a UN investigation into alleged sexual violence committed during the Hamas-led 7 October attacks, according to a report by Haaretz.

The request, which was rejected by Israel, would have allowed the UN access into Israeli prisons to conduct investigations into the treatment of Palestinians held there.

Torture, rape and murder have all been reported as rife at the facility, one of several prisons where Palestinians have been mistreated for decades.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir confirmed that conditions inside Israeli prisons “have indeed worsened” since the war on Gaza began, adding: "I am proud of that.”

    But what about all those newspapers that promised they saw evidence? You think they would do that? Lie for Israel?

      Other sex crimes, this is about Palestinians being systematically raped in Israeli camps, not the rapes that Israel exaggerated or straight up made up to justify their genocide
