"This wasn't something that happened just here and there but rather on a large scale throughout a number of different units, at different times, throughout the war and in different places," said Joel Carmel, highlighting systematic issues.

The accounts from the detained Palestinians, corroborated by other witnesses and soldiers, suggest a troubling pattern of using them as human shields during military operations.
