Hamas terrorists, backed by Iran, invaded Israel on October 7, 2023. They massacred more than 1,200 people; burned families alive, tortured and raped women, children and men, and abducted roughly 250 hostages, including babies and children.
Since the October attack, however, Israeli women have faced public doubts and questions about the brutality and sexual violence they experienced at the hands of Gaza’s Muslim men.
Despite the silence, and sometimes even outright denial, by many women’s organizations around the world, Hamas’ sexual crimes are well-documented. The Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel published a report in February entitled “Silent Cry – Sexual Crimes in the October 7 War”.
