A video on social media shows many Palestinian men caught by Israel while fighting is happening in Khan Younis and in the north of Gaza.

The video, confirmed by the BBC, shows them in their underwear, kneeling on the ground, and being watched by Israeli soldiers.

The men were believed to have been taken into custody in Beit Lahia, a place in the northern part of the Gaza strip.

The media has been informed that some of the men have been let go.

One of the men who was detained is a famous journalist from Palestine. His employers say that Israel is searching and treating people in a disrespectful and embarrassing way.

When asked about the video, a spokesperson for the Israeli government told the media that the men who were arrested were of military age and were found in places where civilians were supposed to have left weeks ago.

In the video, many men are standing in a line on the ground and it looks like they were told to take off their shoes. Their shoes are spread out on the road. Israeli soldiers and armored vehicles are protecting them.

Other pictures show them being taken in army trucks. In the news in Israel, they are saying that the captured people are fighters from Hamas who gave up.

Another photo – which the media has not confirmed as true – depicts men with blindfolds, kneeling in a large hole of flattened sand.

The Israeli Army has not said anything about the pictures, but spokesman Daniel Hagari said that Israeli soldiers and security officers arrested and questioned many suspected terrorists.

“Many of them gave up and surrendered to our soldiers in the last day. ” Information obtained from their interrogations is used to keep on fighting.

On Friday, a spokesperson for the Israeli government told the media that the men were arrested in Jabalia and Shejaiya in the northern part of Gaza, which he said are places where Hamas has a lot of support and power.

“We found men of military age in areas that civilians were told to leave weeks ago,” he said.

Mr Levy said they will ask people to figure out who is really a Hamas terrorist and who is not.

He said the men who were captured were found in places where Israeli soldiers had fought closely with Hamas. They were pretending to be regular people and using regular buildings for their activities.

The BBC talked to a man who said that 10 of his cousins were taken by the Israeli army on Thursday in Beit Lahia.

The man, who wants to keep his identity secret for safety reasons, told BBC Arabic’s Ethar Shalaby that soldiers from the IDF came into the area and used loudspeakers to tell the men to leave their homes and UNRWA schools.

The IDF told women to go to the hospital and said they’d shoot them if the men didn’t come out of their homes.

The man said seven of his cousins have come back home. He doesn’t know what happened to the three who are still in Israeli detention.

On social media, the Palestinian ambassador to the UK said that the video shows Israeli soldiers being rough with people and taking off their clothes at a UN shelter.

“This reminds us of some of the worst times in human history,” said Husam Zomlot.

Palestinian journalist Diaa al-Kahlout, who works for al-Araby al-Jadeed, was seen in a video with the detainees.

The Arabic news outlet, also known as the New Arab in English, reported that Mr. al-Kahlout and his family members were arrested by Israeli forces in Beit Lahia.

Al-Araby al-Jadeed criticized the unfair arrest of Mr al-Kahlout on Thursday.

It said that soldiers made the men take off their clothes and gave them embarrassing searches before taking them to unknown places.

The outlet wants people from different countries, journalists, and groups that protect rights and watch out for problems to speak out against Israel’s continuous attacks on journalists in the area.

Mr al-Kahlout’s friend, Palestinian journalist Lamis Andoni, said on Radio 4’s PM show that some prisoners were let go, but not Mr.

Ms Andoni, who is the head editor of Al-Araby al-Jadeed, said that the people who were released told Mr. Kahlout’s family that he had been moved to a military base in Israel called Zikim. The BBC has not confirmed if this is true.

“We don’t know what happened to him. ” The pictures and videos of these men are scary. “I can’t believe it,” she said. She also mentioned that her company was working with Israeli forces through the UN.
