A group of United Nations experts on Monday demanded an immediate and thorough investigation into reports that Israeli forces have arbitrarily detained, sexually abused, and executed Palestinian women and girls in the Gaza Strip.

“Some of them were reportedly holding white pieces of cloth when they were killed by the Israeli army or affiliated forces,” the U.N. experts continued. “We are particularly distressed by reports that Palestinian women and girls in detention have also been subjected to multiple forms of sexual assault, such as being stripped naked and searched by male Israeli army officers. At least two female Palestinian detainees were reportedly raped while others were reportedly threatened with rape and sexual violence.”

    Only against women and girls, sexual violence against men and boys they do not want to address. But maybe they shouldn’t be so suspicious, maybe there isn’t a single case or fear that it could happen.
    That must be it. The same people who raised the alarm that women are the main victims in ukraine and put the spotlight on sexual violence against women, using the same reports that said ukrainian men suffered it twice as much, can’t be sexist manipulators.

    But anyway, at least they seem to care about half the population…too bad they did nothing until now when those same women were being bombed indiscriminately.
