On Wednesday, the United Nations called for an investigation into the incident of Israeli soldiers forcibly stripping five Palestinian women in Hebron, in the occupied West Bank, during a raid on a residential building, Anadolu Agency reported.

"We will stand against any form of collective punishment," Farhan Haq, the deputy UN spokesperson, told reporters.

Palestinian groups condemned the Israeli female soldiers for forcing five Palestinian women to take off their clothes and threatening them with trained dogs in Hebron.

They protested the "unacceptable" violence practiced by the Israeli occupation soldiers against Palestinian women and demanded that the "guilty soldiers" be punished.
