Leaked Torture Videos Lead to Arrest of Former Israeli Military Prosecutor

Tel Aviv – Israeli police have arrested former military prosecutor Yofat Tomer-Yerushalmi after a scandal erupted from leaked videos showing the torture of Palestinian prisoners by Israeli soldiers at military bases. It’s a shocking development.

Major General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi reportedly disappeared for several hours after announcing his resignation as Chief Military Advocate General on sunday. This sparked speculation about a possible suicide attempt, according to AFP reports on Monday, November 3, 2025.

Tomer-Yerushalmi admitted in his resignation letter, published by Israeli media last Friday, October 31, that his office released the video to the media last year. He didn’t offer a reason why, but it’s clear this caused a major uproar.
