<p>JERUSALEM (Ma&#8217;an) &#8212; Undercover Israeli intelligence officers appeared on national television Saturday to talk about assassinating Palestinians in a program broadcast on Israel&#8217;s Channel 10.</p>
<p>Oren Beaton presented a photo album of Palestinians he killed during his time as a commander of an undercover Israeli unit operating in the northern West Bank city of Nablus.</p>
<p>Beaton explained that he kept photos of his victims.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is a photo of a Palestinian young man called Basim Subeih who I killed. This is another young man. I shredded his body, and the photo shows the remnants of his body,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>The TV program also featured an undercover agent referred to as &#8220;D&#8221;, who openly admitted killing &#8220;wanted Palestinians.&#8221;</p>
<p>He complained of suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and said that the state had rejected his demands for compensation.</p>
<p>The Channel 10 presenter appealed to the Israeli government to meet the agent&#8217;s demands.</p>
<p>&#8220;Those are the Shin Bet agents we only hear about and never see, and thanks to them we live safely,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>The report was filmed in the Palestinian territories, and showed agents wandering around the streets of Ar-Ram in occupied East Jerusalem with handguns under their shirts, illustrating that the agents were still operating in Palestinian cities.</p>
<p>The agents, who speak fluent Arabic, are shown surrounded by masked Palestinian collaborators secretly deployed to the area to protect them.</p>
<p>The program provided previously unconfirmed details about the operational methods of undercover agents.</p>
<p>The report explained that officers conducted surveillance before an assassination, investigating the target&#8217;s friends and classmates.</p>
<p>Agents would even ask about the target&#8217;s favorite meals and habits at home, the report said.</p>
<p>In this way, agents would put together an image of the target&#8217;s behavior and routine.</p>
<p>Agent &#8220;D&#8221; said officers would then &#8220;seize the target and wait until the commander arrives to confirm his identity. Then we shoot him.&#8221;</p>
<p>This confirms previous accounts from Palestinians who have said they witnessed Israeli agents shooting Palestinians at point-blank range.</p>
