'Widespread sexual violence' took place during Hamas's 7 October attacks, report by Israeli experts says
Tuesday, 8 July 2025 A newly released report led by Israeli legal and gender experts presents detailed evidence alleging "widespread and systematic" sexual violence during the Hamas-led terror attack on 7 October.
Israel has launched a massive new offensive in Gaza, killing at least 81 Palestinians in the opening wave of attacks and forcing over one million civilians into danger. The IDF has called up 50,000 reservists to expand operations, sparking fears of mass displacement. Hamas vowed to continue its “war of attrition,” while clashes left dozens dead, including fighters and civilians. The U.S. escalated tensions by sanctioning ICC officials over war crime probes, drawing criticism from rights groups and world leaders who warn of a worsening humanitarian crisis.

Seventeen U.S. Senate Democrats, led by a Jewish senator, are demanding accountability from Secretary of State Marco Rubio after a deadly Israeli airstrike in Gaza killed six journalists, including prominent Al Jazeera reporter Anas al-Sharif. Lawmakers called the strike part of Israel’s “systematic targeting of journalists,” accusing the Israeli government of silencing media voices exposing Gaza’s devastation. In their letter, the senators urged Rubio to press Israel for transparency, citing violations of international law and warning of risks to U.S. credibility and national security. Israel has claimed al-Sharif was tied to Hamas, but has offered no compelling evidence. The senators argue that targeting journalists is unacceptable and have demanded greater media access inside Gaza. The call underscores rising political pressure in Washington over Israel’s conduct in the war and its treatment of reporters covering one of the world’s most dangerous conflict zones.
