B'Tselem: Ruin and Humiliation – Qalqilya

In January 2007, B'Tselem launched "Shooting Back", a video advocacy project focusing on the Occupied Territories. We provide Palestinians living in high-conflict areas with video cameras, with the goal of bringing the reality of their lives under occupation to the attention of the Israeli and international public, exposing and seeking redress for violations of human rights. During a search for wanted persons in Qalqilya on August 29, 2007, soldiers destroyed seven housing units and forced male residents of the neighborhood to strip in front of their families and neighbors – one of whom captured the incident on tape. www.btselem.org
