Ms. Soussana, 40, is the first Israeli to speak publicly about being sexually assaulted during captivity after the Hamas-led raid on southern Israel. In her interviews with The Times, conducted mostly in English, she provided extensive details of sexual and other violence she suffered during a 55-day ordeal.

Ms. Soussana’s personal account of her experience in captivity is consistent with what she told two doctors and a social worker less than 24 hours after she was freed on Nov. 30. Their reports about her account state the nature of the sexual act; The Times agreed not to disclose the specifics.

. . .

For months, Hamas and its supporters have denied that its members sexually abused people in captivity or during the Oct. 7 terrorist attack. This month, a United Nations report said that there was “clear and convincing information” that some hostages had suffered sexual violence and there were “reasonable grounds” to believe sexual violence occurred during the raid, while acknowledging the “challenges and limitations” of examining the issue.

    Whatever. The point of the article argument I’m ignoring is that Hamas Israel committed many acts of rape and torture on genocide since Oct 7. You guys don’t like that narrative so you are trying to draw me off topic by focusing on Israel’s crimes a single instance of rape and making a false equivalence between overzealous genocidal military tactics and alleged rape-happy terrorists (with plenty of refuted accusations). These are the kind of people that Hamas Israel recruits. Think about it. Hamas Israel is the enemy of civilization, not your friendly neighbourhood Starbucks revolutionary

    Fixed your bad argument for you.
