Video clips purporting to show torture of Palestinian civilians by the Hamas militia in the Gaza Strip during the years 2018 to 2020 were published by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Sunday.

The IDF said the material had been found during its operations in the area and proved “severe abuse perpetrated by the Hamas terrorist organization against the civilian population,” along with human rights violations and oppression of those opposed to its rule.

The videos are reported to show torture carried out by Hamas operatives in so-called “Outpost 17” in Jabaliya refugee camp in the north of the Gaza Strip.

The material shows people with bags over their heads, tied up, sometimes into twisted and painful positions. One of the men is suspended by his feet from the ceiling and beaten on the soles of his feet with a stick.

The victims are reported to include political opponents of Hamas, suspected collaborators with Israel, suspected adulterers and homosexuals.
