Ramallah, September 7 (RHC)-- A video has been released that shows an Israeli soldier taking a selfie with a Palestinian prisoner.   Colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic have obtained and verified video footage showing an Israeli soldier taking selfies with a Palestinian taken prisoner in Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

The short clip shows Israeli soldiers taking away two bound and blindfolded Palestinian men.  The first man is seen being led away by four Israeli soldiers while a fifth Israeli soldier roughly puts his arm around a second prisoner – who wrists are bound behind his back – and takes at least two selfies with a mobile phone in quick succession as they march.

Human rights monitors have long drawn attention to Israeli soldiers documenting their war crimes in Gaza with mobile phone cameras and uploading images and video clips to social media.

Such material has included Israeli troops destroying Palestinian civilian infrastructure in Gaza, vandalising and stealing from Palestinian homes and schools, as well as abusing prisoners.

Here is the video clip:            (Warning!  Disturbing images!)
