Verbatim
“One of us [Walfisch] has visited the IDF medical facility as part of a delegation of medical ethics and professional experts and can attest to the fact that the prisoners there are receiving appropriate medical care within the necessary precautions taken to ensure the safety of the medical staff.”
“said prisoners at Sde Teiman were receiving "appropriate medical care", after whistle-blowers revealed that prisoners in the clinic are held naked, shackled hand and foot to a bed 24 hours a day, and wear nappies instead of using a toilet”
