Shurat HaDin Fights for Women’s Rights & Calls Out the Deafening Silence of Women’s Rights Organizations

Shurat HaDin was one of the first to voice horror at the lack of world response to the assaults and sexual violence perpetrated against Israeli women on October 7 and beyond. We are taking action to promote awareness of Hamas’ barbaric acts of rape and murder during the October 7 massacre and raise alarm for the captive women and children. We were asked to intensify this project by the Israeli government.

Shurat HaDin is approaching this shocking issue from the legal perspective. We are defining the human rights violations and war crimes that have been committed and are demanding the indictment of the Hamas terrorists for crimes against humanity. We are sending letters to international organizations dedicated to women’s rights and demanding their involvement. We are working to bring strong women’s rights activists against wartime sexual crimes to support Israeli victims in Israel. Shurat HaDin is drafting a legal brief for the Israeli Attorney General outlining the ability to legally charge and convict those terrorists proven to have been involved for sexual crimes, even though physical evidence could not be obtained, and to demand enhanced sentences. And, of course, we are representing female victims in lawsuits against Iran, North Korea and Qatari entities, as well as against the terrorists themselves.
