The Israeli occupation military has acknowledged that its soldiers threw the bodies of Palestinian Resistance fighters from the roof of a building in the city of Qabatiya in Jenin Governorate, in the occupied West Bank.

An internal investigation by the occupation military concluded that there was "no moral defect" in the soldiers' actions. However, it also described the incident of throwing the bodies from the roof as a "bad incident" and conceded that a different solution should have been considered. 

A spokesman for the Israeli military stated that this was a "serious incident" and promised that it would be thoroughly investigated.

The Israeli website i24news reported that the military received orders from Shin Bet to take the bodies of the Palestinians with them.

The investigation claimed that there was no access road for a crane to transfer the bodies from the roof, adding that the company commander informed the unit commander that retrieving the bodies was impossible due to the terrain, the inability to use stretchers, and the ongoing combat in the area.

It is noteworthy that all investigations conducted by the Israeli occupation military into violations committed by its soldiers against Resistance fighters and Palestinians have consistently failed to result in the conviction or punishment of the soldiers involved.

On September 19, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that three Palestinians were killed due to the Israeli occupation forces' attacks on Qabatiya.

Israeli occupation forces stormed Qabatiya, surrounding several Palestinian homes and firing Energa shells at one of them, our correspondent said, adding that the bodies of several martyrs were on the rooftop of one of the houses after being targeted by the occupation forces.

While the Israeli occupation forces continue to raid the West Bank, Israeli occupation Security Minister Israel Katz announced Friday the end of administrative detention orders for West Bank settlers.

This controversial policy, which allows Israeli authorities to hold individuals without charge for up to six months with indefinite renewals, is primarily used against Palestinians but has also been applied to some extremist Israeli settlers.

Under the practice, detainees are often denied access to the evidence against them, which is withheld by military prosecutors.
