Ehemalige Geisel Romi Gonen erzählt von sexuellem Missbrauch in Gaza-Gefangenschaft: „Angst hat mich gelähmt“

I hope it makes sense to post this here. This is a very important issue and the suffering of the Israeli hostages at the hands of their Palestinian captors has been a long standing subject of debate and disinformation campaigns, trying to affect politics and the outcomes of the war. And I also do remember that personal perspectives to conflicts were welcome here at least sometimes in the past.

As for the Submission Statement:

Former hostage Romi Gonen said she was sexually abused multiple times by different captors during her long captivity in Gaza.

She described living in constant fear, saying the terror made her freeze and feel powerless.

She said the abuse began early on, continued over weeks, and was accompanied by threats to kill her if she spoke about it.

Gonen said the experience left deep psychological scars and showed how vulnerable hostages were while held by Hamas-linked captors.
