Leaked Reports Suggest Impunity For Israeli Troops In Death Of A Palestinian-American Elder
The Washington Post confirmed that Israeli military dragged an American Palestinian from his vehicle, blindfolded, gagged, and handcuffed him as he died in their detention on Jan. 12.
Citing a Hebrew-language report, the Post said that Israeli soldiers did not provide medical assistance to 78-year-old Omar Assad, despite the presence of an army medic.
It revealed a leaked summary of an Israeli Defense Forces’ probe into Assad’s death.
Israeli human rights group B’Tselem tweeted, “This is a policy: Israel does not prosecute those responsible for harming Palestinians, thus making their lives miserable.”
