A new report causes big shock. A group studied the Hamas attack. It happened on October 7, 2023. Hamas used sex violence as a weapon. These acts were cruel. They happened in many places.
The violence continued after the kidnapping. Hostages suffered for months in Gaza. They suffered abuse. Many victims now have a trauma. This is a trauma. It is a deep mental wound. The group calls these crimes against all people.
The parliament in Israel passed a new law. A special court will judge the Hamas members. This is a special court. It is for very bad crimes. Judges can now use the death penalty. This is very rare in Israel.
The EU makes its own rules. The EU gives sanctions to some settlers. These settlers live in the West-Jordan-Land. The settlers were violent. They attacked Palestinians. The EU freezes money. The settlers cannot enter the EU.
Israel is unhappy with the EU. The ministers say the sanctions are wrong. They say the EU is biased. The EU wants to help peace.
