Yoni Saadon, one of the witnesses, recounts in the Times:“I saw this beautiful woman with the face of an angel and eight or ten of the fighters beating and raping her. She was screaming, ‘Stop it — already I’m going to die anyway from what you are doing, just kill me!’
When they finished they were laughing and the last one shot her in the head. I pulled her body over me and smeared her blood on me so it would look as if I was dead too. I will never forget her face. Every night I wake to it and apologise to her, saying ‘I’m sorry’." [SundayTimes]

This series of tweets show #Hamas committed war crimes under multiple treaties by taking hostages. That’s because the prohibition on taking hostages is unquestionably a rule of customary international law - one the International Court of Justice has called an “elementary consideration of humanity.” See Paramilitary Activities Judgment (1986).
But one more treaty prohibiting hostage-taking that Hamas violated is Article 4 of the 1977 Additional Protocol II to the Geneva Conventions, which states:
1. All persons who do not take a direct part or who have ceased to take part in hostilities, whether or not their liberty has been restricted, are entitled to respect for their person, honor and convictions and religious practices …
2. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the following acts against the persons referred to in paragraph 1 are and shall remain prohibited at any time and in any place whatsoever:
…
(c) taking of hostages
Like Common Article 3, this Article binds both “parties” of a conflict and does not require both parties to be “state actors.”
There are more applicable treaties - several more - but seriously, you get the point.
Hamas' war crimes of taking 230+ hostages (like many of its other war crimes - stay tuned) is open and shut.

"Sex, Lies, Embezzlement and "Condoms of Lead"
A post asking how Pierre Krähenbühl, former head of UNWRA and (alleged. Alleged) chief EMBEZZLER (as well as cheating husband) is propelled to head the GLOBAL RED CROSS
@ICRC instead of sitting in jail for corruption? And we ALL keep paying his luxury lifestyle. From terror-supporting, corrupt #UNRWA's on to head the no-less corrupt,
@ICRC Red-Cross anti-Israeli agency, Krähenbühl could star in his own trash "Sex, Lies, Embezzlement and "Condoms of Lead" miniseries. Already in 2019, the United Nations agency entrusted with the fake plight of Palestinian refugees, #UNRWA, had better to do than monitor the thousands of #HAMASNAZIS terror tunnels and weapons caches we discover today: It imploded into a Sodom and Gomorrah-esque scandal, exposing a cesspool of sexual shenanigans, nepotistic cronyism, and power-mad abuses that would make a Roman emperor blush. At the epicenter of this moral maelstrom stood then Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbühl, a man whose libido apparently trumped his humanitarian calling. The guy who will lead the global Red Cross for the foreseeable future. Scandal, you asked? Leaked documents show
@PKraehenbuehl embarked on a torrid affair with a junior employee, Maria Mohammedi, a name that, if pronounced with a certain leer, might ring a bell for aficionados of B-grade exploitation cinema. Yes, the same Maria Mohammedi who, before gracing UNRWA with her talents, starred in the celluloid #Palestinian epic "Condoms of Lead." Krähenbühl, seemingly smitten by Mohammedi's charms (both onscreen and off) more than by those of his legal, wedded wife, allegedly fast-tracked her to a cushy Senior Advisor role, a position tailor-made for clandestine trysts and whispered intimacies (but she still boasts of it on her #Linkedin account today. Look her up. She's dressed).
But their dalliance wasn't confined to hushed office corners. Krähenbühl, reports claim, whisked Mohammedi on a whirlwind tour of the globe, treating her to first-class flights while his dutiful staff cramped themselves in economy. All on the Swiss Government and other international aid to the "poor Palestinians" dime.
How did the #UN audit miss that, you'll ask. Very simple. Another special perk of #UNWRA compared to all other NGOs is that... they don't answer to the #UN regular auditing group. They're implicitly (and so wrongly) trusted.
But the lovebirds scandal was too much, and prompted a reluctant an internal UN investigation. No penal proceedings between friends. In justice, Krähenbühl and his co-conspirators should have faced a serious reckoning, perhaps jail. But no, they slinked away with their pockets lined, and now got themselves new cushy, #UN-funded jobs.
Again, on our dime.
And that's the guy who for years moralized about the justice of the #Palestinian cause. Same same.

11,446.
That’s the number of rockets Hamas have fired at Israel since October 7.
Each one of those rockets is launched to kill civilians.
There are two reasons why there are relatively few casualties in Israel from these rockets:
a) Israeli civilians follow instructions of home front command and run to shelter when sirens are activated.
b) Iron Dome aerial defense system with an interception rate of over 90%.
c) 10% of the rockets fall short and kill their own, which makes great content for them to share on social media since it's hard to disprove. Win Win for Hamas.
Also Israel prioritizes making bomb shelters (or requiring developers to include them) whereas Hamas makes itself shelters (tunnels) and has its population fend for itself.
