Holy fucking shit.
In the post body there's a link to a UN report
https://www.un.org/sexualviolenceinconflict/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/report/mission-report-official-visit-of-the-office-of-the-srsg-svc-to-israel-and-the-occupied-west-bank-29-january-14-february-2024/20240304-Israel-oWB-CRSV-report.pdf
Questions of systemic sexual violence aside, there's definite evidence of sexual assault of both hostages and victims by Hamas or Hamas-aligned forces, which is what Davel is denying.
Israel is definitely guilty of systemic sexual violence, as reports from detained Palestinian political prisoners have shown.
It's just fucked up to deny something like this. Like condemning the Holocaust and denying the Holodomor which, tbf, is something we see a bit of due to this comm's purpose.
