Israeli far-right protesters have broken into an army base in a show of support for soldiers accused of severely mistreating a Palestinian prisoner there.
Israeli media reports suggested the Palestinian has been sexually assaulted by the reservists.
Large crowds gathered outside the Sde Teiman compound after Israeli military police entered it to detain the reservists, who are now subject to an official investigation.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement and strongly condemned the incident and called for “an immediate calming of passions”.
