In recent days, IDF reservist Shari Mendes spoke at a United Nations event in New York entitled “Hear our voices: sexual and gender-based violence in the October 7 Hamas terror attack”.

"Our team commander certifies that several female soldiers, in the barbaric attack, were hit in the groin, private parts, vagina or breasts", said the soldier, whose unit helped bless the bodies of those killed in the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre and is based in Shura.

According to the cited unit, some of the female victims of the gunmen who stormed across the Israeli border from Gaza on October 7, arrived dead with an agonized expression on their faces after their deaths and with "only" underwear on bloody.

Furthermore, as regards female soldiers, their bodies would have been violated even after death.

Meanwhile, US State Department spokesman Matt Miller stated that "Hamas refused to release ten women hostages" and this is because it is feared "for women to reveal what they were subjected to while held captive".

Miller did not share specific details about how the women were treated by Hamas, due to sensitivity concerns. "The United States, however, has no reason to doubt" of reports of sexual violence by Hamas" he concluded.

History and their declarations in the near future will reveal the atrocities suffered.
