June 26th marks the International Day in Support of Torture Victims. To commemorate the event, PCATI issued a situation report, reflecting difficulties, obstacles and failings in the system, as well as testimonies of victims of tortures by Israeli security forces, namely the Shin Bet. The report paints a dismal picture of reality, at the same time shedding light on a message nobody wants to hear: torture is practiced in Israel, and we must not stand idly by.
