United Nations expert Francesca Albanese’s latest report warns that Israel is 
systematically torturing Palestinians on a scale that “suggests collective 
vengeance and destructive intent” and that “torture has effectively become 
state policy” since October 2023.
Of all the investigations Albanese has carried out, “this has been absolutely 
the most excruciating, that led me to say that Israel uses torture in a 
systematic and widespread fashion, intentionally and sadistically, to break the 
spirit of the Palestinians, not just as individuals, but as a people,” says 
Albanese, the U.N. special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory 
since 2022.

This comes as Israeli forces reportedly tortured a Palestinian toddler earlier 
this month, by using a cigarette to burn one of the child’s legs and a nail to 
puncture the other, in order to coerce a confession from his father.
