      The first official acknowledgment by the UN of the use of sexual violence during the attacks came some five months after October 7. Then, following a mission to Israel, the UN’s Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict Pramila Patten published a report concluding there were reasonable grounds to believe conflict-related sexual violence occurred in multiple locations, and that there was clear and convincing evidence that hostages in Gaza were subjected to sexual assaults.

      The Dinah Project is composed of legal and feminist experts determined that the world will never forget the heinous sexual violence and gender atrocities perpetrated on October 7th, 2023, and the ongoing abuse of the hostages.

      So it was literally created for this exact purpose, and has no established credibility.
