Archivist Notes On This Video

This "joke" must be put in relation to the culture of rape on Palestinian detainees that is witnessed by A.H., a Palestinian captive from Hebron District, on what he went through on 29 October in the Negev (Ketzi'ot) concentration camp: "I was shaking with fear, and then they pounced on me. One of them slapped me, and the other spat in my face and said to me in Arabic: “Yihya Sinwar will die.” They ordered me to repeat what he said. Two of them stripped me like the other prisoners, and then threw me on top of the other prisoners. One of them brought a carrot and tried to shove it in my anus. While he was trying to shove the carrot in, some of the others filmed me on their cell phones. I screamed in pain and terror. It went on like that for about three minutes."
