Israel praises UN report about Hamas' sexualized violence on October 7

Israeli President Isaac Herzog on Tuesday praised a UN report showing that members of the Palestinian Hamas movement had committed sexualized violence against Israelis during its October 7 massacre and called on the world to "condemn and punish Hamas."

Five months after the terror attack perpetrated by Hamas and other extremist groups, the United Nations published a paper on Monday that said there were "reasonable grounds to believe" that rapes and gang rapes had taken place in at least three locations during the attacks.
