Israel’s top military lawyer, Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, has resigned after admitting she authorized the release of surveillance footage showing Israeli soldiers allegedly sexually abusing a Palestinian detainee at Sde Teiman base near Gaza.
The July 2024 video, later aired by Channel 12, depicted soldiers surrounding a bound prisoner and obscuring him with shields during the assault. Tomer-Yerushalmi said she approved the leak to counter “false propaganda” but stressed the need to investigate credible violence claims even against “suspected terrorists”.
Her resignation follows the indictment of five reservists for aggravated abuse, sparking political outrage and protests at the base. The Sde Teiman facility has faced repeated allegations of torture and mistreatment of Gaza detainees.
