“Just this week, two prisoners had their legs amputated due to handcuff injuries, which unfortunately is a routine event,” the physician said in the letter. He said inmates are fed through straws, defecate in diapers, and are held constant restraints, which violate medical ethics and the law.
“From the first days of the medical facility’s operation until today, I have faced serious ethical dilemmas. More than that, I am writing [this letter] to warn you that the facilities’ operations do not comply with a single section among those dealing with health in the Incarceration of Unlawful Combatants Law,” the doctor writes.
He stressed that all the patients at the hospital set up at Sde Teiman are handcuffed by all four limbs, regardless of how dangerous they are deemed. They are blindfolded and fed through a straw. “Under these conditions, in practice, even young and healthy patients lose weight after a week or two of hospitalization,” the physician said. He added that the hospital doesn’t receive regular supplies of medical equipment or medicine.
This title totally misses the most shocking parts. They’re amputating peoples limbs cause they’re ziptied for literal months.
The limbs die from lack of blood flow and have to be cut off.
This in an insane level of inhumanity.
