Two days ago, Amit Soussana courageously shared her story detailing the horrific sexual abuse she endured in Hamas captivity. Today, the IDF released interrogation footage of a terrorist confessing to raping another Israeli woman during the October 7th massacre.
The terrorist was captured by Israeli troops earlier this month in Khan Yunis and was brought back to Israel for questioning.
In the clip, the perpetrator describes breaching the border with a handgun and two grenades, entering a home inside a kibbutz, and finding a frightened woman inside. He then admits to throwing her on a couch and raping her, before other terrorists snatched her and her mother out of their home.
The abhorrent confession comes three weeks after the U.N. envoy on sex crimes presented a 24-page report outlining the rape and sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas on October 7.
America must continue to stand with Israel as it fights to protect its families, destroy the terrorists, and ensure they can never fulfill their promise to do this again.
IDF eliminates top-10 Hamas commander at Shifa Hospital
Hamas commander Raad Thabet, considered one of the the top-10 most senior Hamas leaders who was also close with Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar, was killed by Israeli troops today as they continued to operate at Shifa Hospital.
Thabet, the head of supply and personnel for Hamas, was attempting to flee IDF troops and take cover inside the hospital complex when he was eliminated.
200 Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists have now been eliminated during the IDF's operation at Shifa Hospital, highlighting the terrorists' despicable strategy of using Gaza's most vulnerable population as human shields.
The IDF also destroyed a 1.5-mile section of Hamas tunnels that connected between northern and southern Gaza, using 60,000 pounds of explosives.
Hamas diverted money and resources meant for the people of Gaza underground to build its vast terror fortress.
Watch the video of the detonation below.
