Israeli Forces Detain and Strip Palestinian Men in Gaza, Captured on Video

Video footage has surfaced showing Israeli forces detaining and stripping dozens of Palestinian men in northern Gaza, with some stripped to their underwear. Initially misidentified as Hamas fighters surrendering, it was later reported that the men were detained by Israeli troops to check for any affiliation with Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Hamas leader Osama Hamdan stated that the detainees were unarmed civilians unrelated to military operations. The images come as the death toll in Gaza rises, with 350 more Palestinians reported dead in the last 24 hours. US President Joe Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, emphasizing the importance of humanitarian aid and the pursuit of opportunities to free remaining hostages.
