According to a new report, Sexualized Violence used on October 7, 2023 as a “tactical weapon of war” during his terrorist attack on Israel.
Ilana Gritzewsky, who was released hostage after 55 days, said the report of the report: “I remember hands that touch me that were not mine. I remember shouting, then darkness.” She then woke up and discovered that she was half -restricted and surrounded by men. “They hit me, they touched me.”
The report of the Dinah project, a group of Israeli legal and gender experts who are presented on Tuesday, is based, among other things, on the explanations of survivors of the massacre and hostage in the Gaza Strip and the results of corpses of corpses.
Clear patterns came to light
In the course of the investigation there were clear patterns in the way sexual violence was committed: victims were found partially or completely naked with bound hands on trees or masts. There are also indications of group sales with later implementation, as well as genital mutilation and public humiliation, it said.
A report from the Israeli Association of Crisis Centers for Victims of Rape (ARCCI) tackled the size of sexual violence almost a year and a half ago during the massacre on October 7, 2023. On the other hand, Hamas had always refused reports on systematically sexualized violence.
Former hostages report sexual violence
Free female hostages, for example, reported sexual violence, physical and verbal sexual harassment, forced nudity and the threat of forced marriages. 15 Former hostages told the Dinah project team about their experiences in hostage.
The report recommends treating conflict -related sexual violence differently than conventional sexual crimes. According to the report, most victims were “permanently silent”: they were killed or traumatized during or after the attacks to speak. These are challenges for the evidence in the criminal prosecution of the perpetrators.
