UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese has warned that torture has become "state policy" in Israel, describing its use against Palestinians as "strategic, deliberate, and integral to Israel's genocide of the Palestinians." In her latest report to the UN Human Rights Council, Albanese documented the systematic use of psychological and physical torture in the occupied territories, stating that such practices are "not exceptional." She revealed that more than 18,500 Palestinians have been arrested in the past two years, including 1,500 children. The report highlights what Albanese called Israel's "license to torture" Palestinians, framing the practice as a deliberate tool of oppression rather than isolated incidents. The findings add to growing international scrutiny of Israel's treatment of Palestinian detainees. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
