The United Nations took nearly five months to reach preliminary conclusions regarding the sexual attacks committed by Hamas on Israel on October 7 and ongoing abuses against female hostages. Yesterday, the UN’s envoy on sex crimes during conflict presented a report, indicating that rape and gang rape «likely occurred.» The report states that there are «reasonable grounds» to believe that Hamas committed rape and sexual abuse during the events on October 7, with a higher standard of evidence suggesting that hostages kidnapped by Hamas that day were subjected to rape in captivity. Every major news outlet is covering the report.
Pramila Patten, who presented the report at the United Nations headquarters, emphasized that a «fully-fledged investigation» is necessary to determine the overall magnitude, scope, and specific attribution for the sexual violence. She spent 2.5 weeks in the region, meeting with over 30 institutions.
