An Israeli soldier has been detained for allegedly “acting violently” toward a Palestinian detainee in the West Bank, the military says.

The Israel Defense Forces says the soldier was arrested by Military Police forces near a base close to the settlement of Kedumim, after a report by the soldier’s commanders.

“The IDF condemns any use of violence and demands its soldiers and commanders act in accordance with IDF values,” the military adds.
