At least 10 of the Israeli civilians released by Hamas, both men and women, were sexually assaulted or abused while in captivity, the Associated Press reported Wednesday.
In a report detailing allegations of severe and widespread sexual abuse by Hamas terrorists during their October 7 onslaught and later against hostages, a doctor who treated some of the 110 hostages released from captivity told the AP that at least 10 men and women among those freed were sexually assaulted or abused.
Original AP article that reports this where it’s buried in the last section right before the end of the article.
Why are you only asking for evidence about the IDF?
All I’ve seen were testimonies from Israelis about Hamas. History has shown that Israelis have no problem lying to make their enemies look bad.
Because the parent comment explicitly mentioned the IDF?
If you’re going to discard any evidence coming from Israelis, you’re not actually open to any evidence that might challenge your views at all. Which is fine, but don’t pretend to be looking for a rational discussion then.
He said “Hamas and IDF are one and the same.” Why do you only ask for evidence about the IDF?
The only “evidence” I’ve seen about Hamas rape cases are testimonies. They probably happened, but every news article has only cited testimonies. Have you seen evidence of Hamas committing rape that isn’t just a testimony?
I also hold the IDF to the same standard and don’t take Hamas’ claims against them at face value. Both could be lying or telling the truth, but objective evidence leaves way less room for ambiguity and manipulation.
