LinkedIn continues to be flooded with gruesome images related to Gaza. I think one item I saw was accurate. The rest were unverified, unsourced, and had links to terror.

The propagandists want to distract you.

Published in May 2026, Silenced No More: Sexual Terror Unveiled is a comprehensive report by the independent Civil Commission detailing the atrocities committed during and after the October 7, 2023 attacks.

The findings are built on a rigorous, two-year independent investigation. The researchers analyzed over 10,000 photographs and video segments (totalling more than 1,800 hours of visual material), cross-referenced open-source geolocation data, and gathered more than 430 testimonies from survivors, witnesses, medical personnel, forensic experts, and freed hostages.

The undisputed key findings:

• Sexual and gender-based violence was not sporadic or accidental, but a widespread, planned tactic integral to the attacks and subsequent captivity.
• The report documents 13 recurring, multi-site patterns of violence, including rape and gang rape, sexual torture, targeted mutilation, genital burning, and post-mortem desecration.
• The report highlights kinocide as a calculated terror strategy. Family bonds were deliberately targeted by forcing victims to endure violence or execution in front of their loved ones, or forcing captive relatives to witness or undergo abuse to permanently dismantle family units.
• Sexual abuse and psychological terror continued persistently against both female and male hostages held in Gaza.
• Perpetrators strategically filmed and distributed footage of the assaults on social media to maximize psychological trauma and broadcast terror.

Backed by international legal experts, the report establishes that these documented acts legally constitute war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocidal acts.
