A new report, released by Israel's nonprofit the 'Civil Commission', details ‘systematic’ rape and sexual violence during Hamas Oct. 7th terror attack on Israel. Hamas militants and their allies wanted “to maximize pain and suffering” on their victims with gang-rapes, sexual torture, and forced nudity.
