IDF plan for Nukhba prisoner detention leaked: hot water, dental care, ethics training

Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 14:23

TL;DR

An IDF document obtained by a subscribed source outlines the military's 2025 tasks for holding Hamas Nukhba operatives, including installing hot water, expanding medical services, and emphasizing ethics training for soldiers following last year's Sde Teiman incidents. The plan also mandates signage with the 'IDF Spirit' and appointment of an ethics officer.

01 · THE DISPATCH

An IDF internal document detailing the military's planned tasks for detaining Hamas Nukhba operatives in 2025 was obtained by a subscribed source on Sunday afternoon. The document, released in the wake of last year's Sde Teiman incidents, focuses heavily on ethics: it mandates an ethics officers, a command seminar on ethics in prisoner detention, signage with the "IDF Spirit" throughout facilities, and a dedicated ethics board and war-ethics incident review process.

Alongside the ethics push, the document lists infrastructure upgrades to "improve detainee living conditions as required by law" — including the installation of hot water in cells and the addition of a dental chair and more doctors to detention facility clinics. Some of these tasks are designated for immediate execution.

The Zioneer previously reported on the IDF's preparations for prolonged detention of Nukhba operatives, including hot water and enhanced medical services (bulletin, Sunday 09:12 Jerusalem). The new document provides a fuller, codified framework for those efforts, specifying deadlines and a structured ethics program.

The document does not address operational detention capacity, release timelines, or legal proceedings against the detainees.
