YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA new report by the United Nations has established that there are 'reasonable grounds' to believe that rape and gang rape occurred during the October 7th terror attacks led by Hamas against Israel. The UN mission interviewed survivors and witnesses of the attack, and examined 50 hours of video footage and thousands of photographs to arrive at this conclusion.
The Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict said she and a team of experts had found "clear and convincing information" about rape and sexualized torture. The report also said that some claims of rape could not be verified, but there was "convincing information" that hostages taken from Israel were, and might still be, subjected to sexual violence during their captivity.
For more on this, we talk to Christina Lamb, chief foreign correspondent of The Sunday Times.
