Ben Gvir Posts Video of Confronting Palestinian Prisoners

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir posted a video on Sunday, August 30, 2026, showing him confronting female Palestinian prisoners at Damon Prison and boasting about the harsh conditions he has imposed. The footage, which was later deleted, sparked widespread condemnation from Palestinian groups and human rights organizations, who described it as a public humiliation and political propaganda. In the video, Ben Gvir is seen entering the women's section of the prison. A prisoner can be heard complaining about the lack of basic necessities, stating, "This is our third day without showering. We are not receiving medical treatment, and our clothes are not clean.
