This is the first verdict against a soldier of its kind since the war between Hamas and Israel broke out.
The man is said to have beaten the prisoners while they were fitted with handcuffs and blindfolds. He is also said to have forced them to make animal sounds and repeat humiliating phrases.
The man is said to have continued his actions despite the prisoners screaming in pain and begging for forgiveness. Despite another soldier urging him to stop and saying he had crossed the line, he is said to have continued, according to the newspaper.
The man has now been sentenced to seven months in prison for four incidents.
The crimes are said to have been committed between January and June 2024.
