UN confirms evidence of Hamas sexual assaults. "Hamas and its allies are trying to discredit the report to escape this horrible shame.
They will not succeed, since the testimonies are truly shocking," says Israeli President Isaac Herzog. Despite everything, the Israeli Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, criticized on Monday night the organization's late reaction to this issue. Some 30,500 Gazans have died, 80% of them civilians, according to the enclave's Ministry of Health, controlled by Hamas. On October 7, Hamas carried out an attack against Israel that sparked the war and included the launching of thousands of rockets.
