<p>Gaza (QNN)- Palestinians\u2019 bodies recently returned by
Israel appear \u201chighly indicative of organ harvesting,\u201d
according to a British-Palestinian surgeon, with
Health officials confirming that the bodies also
showed signs of severe torture.</p>
<p>Dr. Ghassan Abu Sittah told Al Jazeera he was \u201csent
photographs of the bodies that were received by the
Palestinian Ministry of Health from the Israeli army.\u201d</p>
<p>\u201cThe bodies show clearly surgically removed lungs,
heart, kidneys and liver \u2013 done in a professional,
surgical way, using sharp bone saws, causing zero
damage to surrounding tissues,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>\u201cThese bodies also had liquid nitrogen burns on their
skin, but no other injuries. It\u2019s unlikely the organs
were retrieved post-mortem. All of these bodies
belonged to Palestinians whose families said they had
been imprisoned alive. So all of this is highly
indicative of organ harvesting.\u201d</p>
<p>Abu Sittah noted that \u201cevery organ was removed as if
ready for transplant.\u201d</p>
<p>Abu Sittah said the photographs were taken on October
17, shortly after Israel handed over 120 bodies.</p>
<p><b>What We Know So Far</b></p>
<p>Abu Sittah\u2019s comments support reports by the Gaza
Government Media Office director, Ismail al-Thawabta,
who also reported that Israeli forces stole organs
from Palestinian corpses and called for an immediate
international investigation.</p>
<p>As part of the Gaza ceasefire deal which took effect
on October 10, 300 Palestinian bodies have been
released by Israel over the past weeks. The bodies
showed clear signs of torture and abuse.</p>
<p>Dozens of the freed bodies also remain unidentified.</p>
<p>According to Gaza\u2019s Government Media Office, the
bodies showed \u201cconclusive evidence of field executions
and brutal torture\u201d.</p>
<p><i><b>It said the bodies showed signs of:</b></i></p>
<ul>
<li>Hanging and rope marks on the necks of several
bodies</li>
<li>Direct gunfire at close range, \u201cconfirming
deliberate field executions\u201d</li>
<li>Hands and feet being bound with plastic restraints</li>
<li>Eyes being blindfolded</li>
<li>Being crushed under Israeli tank tracks</li>
<li>Fractures, burns and deep wounds, indicating
\u201csevere physical torture\u201d</li>
</ul>
<p>\u201cWe call for the urgent establishment of an
independent international commission of inquiry to
investigate these heinous crimes and to hold Israeli
leaders accountable for the war crimes committed
against our people in the Gaza Strip,\u201d the Office
said.</p>
<p>Dr. Ismail Al-Thawabta said Israeli occupation forces
stole organs from the bodies of Palestinian detainees.</p>
<p>He said dozens of bodies were found mutilated and
missing vital parts, including eyes, limbs, and
internal organs.</p>
<p>\u201cWhen we examined the bodies, we found that large
parts were missing, there were half bodies, bodies
without heads, without limbs, without eyes, and
without internal organs.\u201d</p>
<p>Mohammed Zaqout, director of hospitals in Gaza\u2019s
Health Ministry, spoke about the \u201cclear signs of
torture\u201d found on the bodies.</p>
<p>\u201cOne body shows signs of hanging with a rope still
wrapped around the neck, blindfolds around the eyes
and bound hands. That martyr was placed as is and sent
to us,\u201d Zaqout said.</p>
<p>Israeli occupation authorities have been accused of
torturing Palestinian detainees. This includes being
handcuffed and shackled 24 hours a day, seven days a
week \u2013 even while sleeping, eating, and using the
restroom.</p>
<p>Testimonies also describe regular beatings by guards,
extreme overcrowding, humiliation, and inadequate
hygiene.</p>
<p>An Israeli reserve soldier exposed lately shocking
abuses at Israel\u2019s infamous Sde Teiman military base,
describing it as a \u201csadistic torture site\u201d where
dozens of Palestinian detainees from Gaza died under
brutal conditions.</p>
<p>The soldier described Sde Teiman as a place where
\u201cpeople enter alive and leave in body bags.\u201d He said
the death of detainees was no longer surprising. \u201cThe
real surprise,\u201d he added, \u201cis if someone survives.\u201d</p>
<p>He stated that Israeli occupation authorities oversee
systematic abuse.</p>
<p>According to his account, Palestinian detainees
suffered starvation, untreated war wounds, and denial
of basic hygiene needs.</p>
<p>\u201cSome urinated and defecated on themselves because
they weren\u2019t allowed to use the bathroom,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>In August 2024, the Israeli rights group B\u2019Tselem
accused Israeli occupation authorities of
systematically abusing Palestinians in \u201ctorture
camps\u201d, subjecting them to severe violence and sexual
assault.</p>
<p>Its report, titled \u201cWelcome to Hell\u201d, is based on 55
testimonies from former detainees from the Gaza Strip,
the occupied West Bank, East Jerusalem, and citizens
of Israel. The overwhelming majority of these
detainees were held without trial.</p>
<p>According to the Palestine Center for Prisoners
Studies, more than half of the Palestinian prisoners
who have died since October 2023, when Israel launched
its genocidal war in Gaza, were killed primarily as a
result of torture and abuse.</p>
<p>Due to the sharp rise in arrests, particularly among
Gazans, Israel has opened new detention and
interrogation centers operated directly by its
military. According to the center, these facilities
have become sites of \u201csystematic torture and
mistreatment, in clear violation of international law
and human rights.\u201d</p>
<p><b>Recently-released Palestinians: What They Say?</b></p>
<p>The freed Palestinians said they were beaten and
humiliated, describing the Israeli prisons they were
held in as \u201cslaughterhouses\u201d.</p>
<p>Al Jazeera correspondent Ibrahim al-Khalili\u2019s
brother, Mohammed, who was held for more than 19
months without charge, described his ordeal as a \u201cbig
struggle\u201d.</p>
<p>\u201cWe were beaten and humiliated. We suffered a lot.
But thank God, it\u2019s all over now,\u201d al-Khalili said.</p>
<p>Abdallah Abu Rafe described his release as a \u201cgreat
feeling\u201d.</p>
<p>\u201cWe were in a slaughterhouse, not a prison.
Unfortunately, we were in a slaughterhouse called the
Ofer prison. Many young men are still there. The
situation in the Israeli prisons is very difficult.
There are no mattresses. They always take the
mattresses away. The food situation is difficult.
Things are difficult there,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>Another released detainee, Yasin Abu Amra, described
conditions in Israeli jails as \u201cvery, very bad\u201d.</p>
<p>\u201cIn terms of the food, the oppression, and the
beatings, everything was bad. There was no food or
drink. I hadn\u2019t eaten for four days. They gave me two
sweets here, and I ate them,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>Saed Shubair, who was also freed recently, said he
did not know how to describe his feelings.</p>
<p>\u201cThe feeling is indescribable,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>\u201cSeeing the sun without bars is an indescribable
feeling. My hands are free from the handcuffs. Freedom
is priceless.\u201d</p>
<p>\u201cIt\u2019s an indescribable feeling, a new birth,\u201d said
Mahdi Ramadan, flanked by his parents after his
release from prison.</p>
<p>Palestinian journalist prisoner Shadi Abu Seed gave a
harrowing account of life inside an Israeli prison
after his release.</p>
<p>\u201cI went hungry for the past two years. I swear to
God, they didn\u2019t feed us. They kept us naked. They
beat us while we were naked day and night. We were
tortured,\u201d Abu Seed said.</p>
<p>\u201cUntil our last day in Israeli prison, they cut us
and hit us and abused us. We endured every kind of
torture, emotional and physical.\u201d</p>
<p>\u201cWe couldn\u2019t even sleep. They threatened us with our
children. They told me they killed my children. They
told us that Gaza was destroyed. I arrived here and
found that everything was gone. It looked like the end
of the world. Everything is different.\u201d</p>
<p>\u201cHe\u2019s been locked up for 24 years,\u201d said a relative
of Saber Masalma, who was arrested in 2002 and
sentenced to life in prison.</p>
<p>\u201cHe looks like a dead body. But we will bring him
back to life,\u201d he said.</p>
<p>According to Palestinian prisoner advocacy groups,
every time prisoners are released, the prisoners\u2019
bodies reflect the level of crimes committed against
them, including torture that is \u201cunprecedented\u201d in its
level after October 7, \u201cstarvation crimes, systematic
medical crimes, and the infection of a number of them
with scabies, in addition to the severe beatings that
the prisoners were subjected to before their release.\u201d</p>
