Video appears to show a Palestinian man strapped to the hood of an Israeli military vehicle during a raid on the occupied West Bank town of Jenin. The Israel Defense Forces said the incident violated military policy and “does not conform to the values of the IDF.
When Mujahid Abadi stepped outside to see if Israeli forces had entered his uncle’s neighborhood, he was shot in the arm and the foot. That was only the start of his ordeal. Hours later, beaten and bloodied, he found himself strapped to the searing hood of an Israeli military jeep driving down a road. The army initially said Abadi was a suspected militant, but later acknowledged he had not posed a threat to Israeli forces and was caught in crossfire with militants.
“I screamed because of the heat,” he said. “Then, one of the soldiers started cursing at me and told me to be quiet.” The military said its forces had tied Abadi to the hood of the jeep to transport him to paramedics. But Nebal Farsakh, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Red Crescent rescue service, said the army had sealed off the area and prevented paramedics from tending to the wounded for at least an hour.
