US humanitarian officials attend meetings at Israeli military camp linked to torture and rape

The Guardian reported that officials from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) participate in daily meetings at an Israeli military base that also houses a notorious prison for Palestinians snachted from Gaza, where reports of torture, rape and murder are rampant.

At least 4,000 Palestinians have been detained from Gaza in Israel since October 2023. 

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

“I can’t sleep at night knowing that it’s going on,” one US official told The Guardian. “It’s another form of psychological torture to make someone work there.”
