‘We Returned From Hell’: Palestinian Journalists Recount Torture in Israeli Prisons
Episode 2
Tuesday, 31 March, 2026
With the world’s attention focused on the fallout of yet another illegal war waged by the United States and Israel, Palestinians across Gaza and the Occupied West Bank continue to be rounded up, imprisoned, and tortured within a network of military detention camps throughout the region—many held without charges or trials, some indefinitely, others killed. We’ve released several episodes covering the ongoing genocide there, and this latest drop is a continuation, focusing on Israel’s targeted abuse, detention, and torture of Palestinian journalists risking their lives to report on the relentless atrocities and vicious humanitarian crisis that has claimed tens of thousands. Our guest is Sara Qudah, Middle East & North Africa Regional Director at the nonprofit Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ)—a leading global organization dedicated to defending truth-tellers and press freedoms worldwide—which recently published a damning special report titled ‘We Returned From Hell’: Palestinian Journalists Recount Torture in Israeli Prisons” exposing such unimaginable horrors. Speaking with us from Paris, she explains its key findings along with the plights of imprisoned and tortured journalists, and stresses the ongoing quest for accountability.
