A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

What the dog doin'?
War crimes apparently, the type of man made horrors beyond most human's comprehension. I don't get how we have such a large delta with the horrors preformed by israel and the coverage of the nation in the west. Being called anti-Semitic for calling out using dog rape as a tool to torture prisoners seems a bit bizarre.
i have no words
Unconscionable
Israel should be disarmed.
*dissolved
They are holding biggest LGBT event or somethin in middle east in coming week ig so it makes it all good
What the fuck
And that's what we know, imagine all the things that will probably never get out.
literally
I was reticent to post this, given that it's based off of one person's hearsay. What tipped me over is that it is confirmation of stories also relayed by Palestinian prisoners in the fall of 2025 (linked in the article) about the goings on in the Sde Teiman torture camp.
Al-Jazeera by the way reports that the IDF soldiers who were at the center of a very public case of gruesome sexual abuse of prisoners in the same torture camp are returning to duty.
End the genocidal Israeli apartheid regime. Boycott Divest Sanction. Criminals at the Hague.
Thank you for the context. It's important.
Yes, someone who could not possibly have heard the Palestinian allegations has come forward to say they are true.
Of the two guards he spoke to, “one had seen this happen and said it was too awful to talk about. The other said that he had heard about it from others and believed it was true. This happened. This is happening still. The evidence is too overwhelming.”
I wouldn't call this overwhelming evidence. Could it have happened? Painfully, yes. Should an article have been published that guards have admitted this happens? Not on this evidence.
i think regardless of the veracity of the article, the fact that israel has a TORTURE CAMP is something that should be highlighted
I don't think that's the official name.
That would be funny.
I am tired boss. I am tired.
Just disgusting.
Whatthefuck
meanwhile Palestinians are forced into begging online for the means of survival, the bare minimum, that they should already be getting and they're being labeled scammers. we are all complicit in this.
LOL the downvotes, if you think you don't have blood on your hands you're lying to yourself.
