Earlier, the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture on Friday condemned the case of a Palestinian prisoner being sexually abused by Israeli soldiers and demanded that the perpetrators be punished.

The Israeli military said prosecutors had requested that the soldiers accused of involvement be placed under house arrest and their detention extended until next Thursday.
Israeli media reported that the soldiers sexually abused a member of the elite Hamas unit at the Sde Teiman detention facility in the Negev desert, southern Israel.
Israel's Foreign Ministry stressed that the country is committed to the rule of law and humane treatment of all prisoners, and that any allegations of violence are thoroughly investigated by Israeli authorities.
The United Nations says it has received numerous reports of alleged torture against Palestinian detainees since October 7 last year.
