Two Israeli doctors who treated released hostages and an IDF official familiar with the issue told USA Today that many of the released female hostages aged 12 to 48 were assaulted by Hamas in Gaza.
One doctor said that many of the freed hostages showed signs of PTSD and “came to us as patients with the trauma of those who witnessed very severe assaults.”
The IDF official said that “we know they were raped in Hamas captivity.”
In mid-December, 33 American senators wrote a letter to U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres demanding that the UN launch an investigation into Hamas’ use of assault on Oct. 7.

My ex said the same thing
This is a radical change. In the past, “terrorists” accused of sex crimes inevitably turned out to be serial sex offenders with no history of political activities, but realizing that terrorists get exchanged whereas rapists don’t. When a military encourages sex crimes by its soldiers, it is sending the message that they will settle for nothing less than complete submission by their enemies. The Palestinians, and their supporters around the world, are sending a message that the Arab-Israeli conflict is no longer about politics or boundaries, and that they will settle for nothing less the a Judenrein Palestine from the river to the sea.
Instead of writing letters demanding investigation, that you know mean nothing, withdraw from the UN and throw them out of here. They ARE the problem.
Why is this news ?
Sad but we all know this happened
I won’t waste words…….Death to all of them……even those with a hint…no one bakes babies at this time in history with so much of Torah being visible….America….you are the worse of them all
Akuperma, this is how the Arabs have ALWAYS fought, ever since 1920 and earlier. They did exactly the same in the 1948 war.
