'Demeaning' to women: Israeli troops play with undergarments in Gaza homes

The videos shot by Israeli soldiers are among dozens of posts in which troops in Gaza are shown displaying lingerie, mannequins, and in some cases both.

UN experts also said in a recent report that it had received information in the occupied West Bank about sexual violence against Palestinians by the IDF. /Photo: @ytirawi on X

Elsewhere, another soldier sits atop a tank holding a female mannequin dressed in a black bra and helmet and says:"I found a beautiful wife, serious relationship in Gaza, great woman." Approached about images he reposted to his more than 100,000 followers on X between Feb. 23 and March 1, Tirawi provided links to the original posts by IDF soldiers. Reuters then independently verified eight posted on Instagram or YouTube.

In response, a spokesperson sent a statement saying the IDF investigates incidents that deviate from the orders and expected values of IDF soldiers, as well as reports of videos uploaded to social networks. The IDF declined to say whether it was referring to any of the images highlighted by Reuters, or whether any of the soldiers responsible have been disciplined.

One photo shows a soldier posing with his gun, making a thumbs-up gesture, in front of a double bed strewn with packets of women's underwear.
