Soldiers strapped Mujahed Azmi to the bonnet of a military vehicle during a raid in the occupied West Bank
Mujahed Azmi, a resident of the city of Jenin, was seen tied to the bonnet of the vehicle as it passed two ambulances on Saturday, in video shared on social media and verified by Reuters.
“It is flabbergasting how a state born 76 years ago has managed to turn international law literally on its head,” she wrote in a post on X. But it said soldiers had then violated military protocol. “The suspect was taken by the forces while tied on top of a vehicle,” the Israel Defence Forces said in a statement.The military said the “conduct of the forces in the video of the incident does not conform to the values” of the IDF and that the incident would be investigated and dealt with.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations , the United States’ largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organisation, also condemned the incident.
