Troops suspended after video shows soldier giving bound detainees mocking Talmud lecture
Gianluca Pacchiani is the Arab affairs reporter for The Times of Israel
A reservist has been suspended after he was filmed pretending to give a Talmud lecture to at least three bound and blindfolded men, the Israel Defense Forces says. The soldier who filmed the scene, which was widely circulated on social media, was also suspended.
“The behavior of the soldier in the video is serious and does not align with the values of the IDF or what is expected of IDF soldiers. The soldiers involved have been suspended from their duties and will face disciplinary action,” the IDF writes in a statement.
