First independent investigation regarding the sexual violence on Oct 7th is released. Done by the UN. It concludes: ➡️ There was violence against women ➡️ No proof of any rape, let alone "mass rape". No physical evidence or victim testimony. Evidence of fabrication ➡️ There was no such "order" by Hamas

Read some of the FC discourse on this. This seems like an intentionally-misleading image edit. Sexual assault is notoriously under-reported and difficult to 'prove', and what's hardest to prove is 'orders'. I personally think sexual assault in this context on Oct 7th would not have happened because it was 'ordered', but because Hamas created a culture in which sexual assault was not sufficiently punished.

I don't know why people are not getting this. The report clearly says there WAS violence (and SGBV) towards women, as I wrote in my cast. But it also clearly says no rape evidence was found, instead fabrication of rape evidence was found. "Ordered" is important, because it means there was no such systemic attack, unlike what Israel has been doing to Palestinian prisoners (as mentioned in the report).
