Disturbing visuals of Hamas parading a naked and battered body of a woman on the streets of Israel have emerged. Another woman confirmed that it was her sister, a German citizen, seen in the video.

As the Israel-Gaza conflict rages, disturbing visuals of fighters of the Palestinian armed group Hamas parading a naked and battered body of a woman through the streets of Israel in the back of a pickup truck have emerged.

According to videos that surfaced on social media, a screaming crowd surrounds the Hamas’ vehicle, echoing their cries and spitting on the woman’s body.

Hamas initially claimed that the body belonged to a female Israeli soldier, according to news.com.au. However, Adi Louk confirmed on X that the woman seen in the video was her sister, Shani Louk, a German citizen and a tattoo artist, reported the New York Post.

Shani Louk’s mother, in a video message posted by Visegrad 24 on X, confirmed her daughter’s identity and appealed to people for more information regarding her whereabouts.

    ukrainians were treated worse. did they kill and rape civilians intentionally? meanwhile

    If Palestine stop fighting there would be peace. If Israel stop fighting there will be no. Israel. each time Palestinians are the aggressors. [

    Fighting began with attacks by irregular bands of Palestinian Arabs attached to local units of the Arab Liberation Army composed of volunteers from Palestine and neighboring Arab countries. These groups launched their attacks against Jewish cities, settlements, and armed forces.](https://history.state.gov/milestones/1945-1952/arab-israeli-war#:~:text=Fighting began with attacks by,%2C settlements%2C and armed forces.)

    Israel is not the aggressor. Both the war of Independence (1948) and the Yom Kippur war (1973) were initiated by Arab forces. The Six-day war was initiated by Israel, but it was a preemptive strike and there’s no doubt the Arabs were planning on attacking sooner rather than later, so you can count that in as well.

    Oh, and I guess you can count some of the bigger escalations between Israelis and Palestinians as wars, if you’d like. In that case, both the first and second Intifadahs were initiated by Palestinians.

      Since you are comparing it to Ukraine, this would be like saying that the war in Ukraine is justified because Ukrainians didn’t stop fighting and gave up the Donbass and Crimea to the Russians.

        cease to exist

        If they won’t give up their genocidal ideas they deserve to cease to exist. ignoring also the 2 state solution proposed many times that is ALWAYS turned down by Palestine. Funny how that works aint it?

        BTW this is taken directly from the founding charter of HAMAS, “our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious” and calls for the eventual creation of an Islamic state in Palestine, in place of Israel and the Palestinian Territories, and the obliteration or dissolution of Israel."

      How do you mean? Peace in an apartheid state where they are always behind a separation wall or a checkpoint?

          It’s amazing, it actually led to a dramatic decrease in suicide bombings and other forms of terrorism (until it didn’t). I was against the wall because it led to less opportunities for interaction, but after seeing the precipitous drop in terrorism, I can understand why even progressive Israelis were not shedding too many tears when the walls started being built en masse.

      If Palestinians stopped fighting, there would still be illegal settlements encroaching on their already-compromised territory. Palestinians missed real opportunities for peace MANY MANY times. Only one real peace effort was ruined by Israel (the ultra orthodox murdering Yitzhak Rabin).

      I mean, no, the Israelis are aggressors, in that they walked into an existing country and tried to claim a vast amount of it. They’re the Confederacy, but not even from the same country originally.
