Israel’s Automated Occupation: Jerusalem
Video duration 25 minutes 15 seconds
Tariq Nafi investigates Israel’s surveillance in Jerusalem and digs into the secret Israeli unit responsible for spying on and blackmailing Palestinians.
Palestinian existence in Jerusalem is under threat – carefully monitored, recorded and restrained. In the narrow streets and alleys of the old town, cameras are inescapable.
In the second episode of a two-part special, Tariq Nafi reports from the occupied West Bank on how Israel’s surveillance machine infiltrates the lives of Palestinians. He also speaks with a former Israeli lieutenant of Unit 8200 – the elite intelligence unit responsible for spying on Palestinians.
