Munther Amira, a well-known West Bank human rights defender, details the indignities suffered during his imprisonment by Israel. His story includes humiliation, mistreatment and sexual harassment at the hands of Israeli agents.

“They know that I am not with Hamas, that my strategy is completely different, even if I fight the occupation,” says Amira. EL PAÍS has asked the Israeli army about Amira's case without receiving a response.. The interview took place in March in the living room of his. house in the Aida refugee camp (West Bank), the same place where he was violently detained in. the early morning of December 18, 2023 in front of his wife and children by several military. agents. The last thing I remember is my 19-year-old daughter Yumna. saying: 'I love you, dad'; and me responding: “I loveYou.' Afterwards, they beat me until I arrived at Etzion”, a detention center south of Bethlehem, where I arrived tied behind my back and with a “smelly cloth” covering my eyes.
