The incident, which was revealed by Haaretz, dates back to July during an IOF raid on the Ajlouni family's home in Al-Khalil.

A recent report by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz exposed a disturbing incident in which Palestinian women were coerced into stripping naked during a raid on a residential building in Al-Khalil by Israeli Occupation Forces. 

The incident, revealed by Israeli media, dates back to last July when the Israeli military forces invaded the Ajlouni family's home in Al-Khalil. During the raid, two masked female soldiers armed with rifles and accompanied by an attack dog forced five Palestinian women, all from the same family and residing in Hebron, to undress and walk naked individually in front of them.

It should be noted that the Palestinian Resistance has vowed to retaliate against this horrific crime. 

According to the testimony of the girls, this humiliating act was carried out under the threat of releasing the attack dog if they did not comply with the soldiers' orders.

The multi-story house, which is home to 26 people, including 15 children ranging in age from 4 months to 17 years old, was raided at 1:30 AM on July 10th. 

Israeli media quoted one of the women who was forced to take off her wardrobe as saying that the soldiers initially asked her to remove her prayer clothes, and then proceeded to demand that she strip completely. After she resisted, she was threatened by one of the police dogs.

The women stated that they were taken one by one into a room, where they were forced to undress in front of the terrified children who had been awakened by the commotion. One woman described how the soldiers brought the aggressive attack dog so close that it almost reached her, all while the children screamed in fear.

Afterward, the soldiers left the house at around 5:30 AM, having arrested the eldest son of the family.

Upon their departure, the family discovered that a bag containing gold jewelry valued at approximately $11,000 had gone missing.

Back in May,  the UN special rapporteur on human rights in the occupied territories, Italian lawyer Francesca Albanese, stated that "Israel" treats the Palestinian territories as colonies that belong to it.

Albanese told The Guardian, "For me, apartheid is a symptom and a consequence of the territorial ambitions Israel has for the land of what remains of an encircled Palestine ... The cause is the colonies. Israel is a colonial power maintaining the occupation in order to get as much land as possible for Jewish-only people. And this is what leads to the numerous violations of international law."

She further added that if states are supposedly committed to the two-state solution, then these same states should make sure that "Israel's" conduct is actually aligned with the "possibility of having a Palestinian state." This, according to Albanese, "means sovereignty from a political, economic, cultural point of view. The right to self-determination should be the starting point."

"Member states need to stop commenting on violations here or there, or escalation of violence, since violence in the occupied Palestinian territory is cyclical, it is not something that accidentally explodes. There is only one way to fix it, and that is to make sure that Israel complies with international law."
