An incident in the West Bank city of Jenin has sparked outrage after video footage emerged showing Israeli forces strapping a wounded Palestinian man to the front of their vehicle. The Israeli military has admitted that this action violated protocol during a raid in which the man was injured in an exchange of fire.
The IDF confirmed the incident, stating that the man was a suspect in the raid and was wounded during the operation. However, instead of transferring him to a medical facility in an ambulance, as requested by his family, the army chose to strap him to the bonnet of their jeep and drive away.
The Israeli military has promised to investigate the incident, and the wounded man was eventually transferred to the Red Crescent for treatment. This incident has raised concerns over the treatment of injured individuals during military operations, and has sparked a debate over the conduct of Israeli forces in the region.
