Is there any evidence that Hamas have been committing sexual violence?
I’d say it’s basically guaranteed it happened, like in every war. The real question is whether it’s sanctioned or condoned by the higher ups or not, that I can’t answer.

Yes. Even inside of Gaza i.e. against some people deemed gay, some “traitors”. Within torture it is mostly not complementary with sexual violence. So within this conflict there will be some cases, the question will be if it is widespread policy (unlikely), if it is “lack of oversight+patriarchy+spaces without law+antisemitism”, etc.
However in any case the limit for certain types of violence and certain targets of violence is important. During the last day we did see that plenty on this site aren’t really differentiating or equating everyone in Israel as guilty and therefore fine to be killed (without making clear if they mean targeted, or as collateral damage i.e. car bombings that kill civilians in front of military bases).
The line of the ANC’s MK was different in that regard that not all violence and all targets were seen as acceptable or justified. So the site’s line is more regressive than feminist Marxists ought to be.
*Edit: Hamas did shit the bed in this operation. *
I admit I haven’t watched any of the videos so I am going off of how people have described them.
My husband has been watching the videos, he said they were parading around a German tourist’s naked dead body.
And I’ve read in multiple places of a woman being thrown in a jeep with blood in the back of her pants.
I’m have been taking these at face value, but thank you for the reminder that we live in a new age of disinformation. I hope that the videos are fake.
EDIT: This Daily Mail article has screenshots of the two videos I referenced although the most graphic one is blurred. Not a reliable source, but evidence that these videos do exist and more legit news organizations are still doing more due diligence to verify their authenticity.
I think it is unlikely that a video was faked that happens to have the distinctive tattoos and hairstyle of a woman who was known to be in Israel at the time.

If they’ve done that, sure, fuck them, but all ive seen is racist libs trying to attribute it to them based on videos they refuse to share.
