Hamas's October 7 Attack on Israel Marked by Unprecedented Sexual Violence

Israeli women's resilience highlighted on International Women's Day amid global silence on the atrocities.

The brutal attack by Hamas on Israel on October 7 involved unprecedented sexual violence against women, including rape and sexual mutilation, as a deliberate tactic.
More than 1,200 people were murdered and 253 were abducted during the attack, with entire families suffering atrocities.
International Women's Day in Israel was marked with a focus on the victims of the October 7 attack, highlighting the strength and resilience of Israeli women.
Despite the atrocities, global solidarity for the female victims has been lacking, with many international organizations and women's groups remaining silent.
Israeli women displayed remarkable courage during the attack, with many fighting to save their families and others leading efforts to repel the terrorists.
