A “beautiful angel-faced woman” was raped by eight to ten Hamas terrorists in Israel on October 7, while another tragic victim was decapitated with a shovel trying to defend herself, says a stricken survivor.
Yoni Saadon, a 39-year-old father of four, told the UK’s Sunday Times that he is still haunted by the horrific scenes he witnessed at the Nova Music festival, when Palestinian demons massacred at least 364 festival-goers, including the gang. -Woman raped, he begged to be killed.
“I saw this beautiful woman with the face of an angel and eight or ten combatants beating and raping her,” recalled Saadon, a foundry shift manager. “She screamed: ‘Enough! I’m going to die anyway because of what you’re doing, just kill me!’
“When they finished they were laughing and the last one shot him in the head,” he said.
Saadon said he witnessed the gruesome act after dumping the body of a murdered woman who had also been shot in the head on him and smearing it with her blood to make it look like he, too, was dead.

“I’ll never forget his face,” he said. “Every night I wake up and say sorry to him. ‘I’m sorry.’ “
Saadon said he eventually joined others who had fled the scene and hid among trees and bushes.
That’s when he witnessed two other Hamas gunmen attack another young woman who was defending herself from being stripped, he said.
“They threw her to the ground and one of the terrorists took a shovel and decapitated her,” Saadon told the UK outlet. “And her head rolled on the ground. I see that head too.”

Saadon’s story is among the latest testimonies against Hamas, which accuses the terrorist group of orchestrating mass rapes during the October 7 attack that left more than 1,200 dead in Israel.
Hamas has denied accusations of sexual violence, although Israel Defense Forces sources claim that captured terrorists have said they were ordered to “dirty” or “prostitute” women, according to the outlet.
While investigations into the alleged sexual assaults were initially hampered by a lack of physical evidence, as no rape kits were used on the survivors and bodies were recovered within the first 48 hours, authorities have begun to get a picture. clearer picture of the horrors, including rapes, in recent weeks.

Israeli forensic teams who examined the bodies of the dead said they found multiple signs of rape, torture and other atrocities suffered by the victims. There have also been more than 1,500 heartbreaking testimonies.
“We saw many women with bloody underwear, broken bones, broken legs and broken pelvises,” a volunteer Shura military morgue worker named Shari told the Washington Post.
Shari, a 60-year-old architect from Jerusalem, said opening the body bags from the massacre scenes was more than traumatic.
“They were all young women. Most of them with little or tattered clothing and with bloody bodies, especially around their underwear, and some women were shot many times in the face as if to mutilate them,” she said.

“They had anguished faces and often clenched their fingers as they died.
“Some bodies we pulled out had pretty bright pink or purple nails, and we all paused and at that point a lot of us collapsed,” he said.
Authorities noted that some of the bodies that arrived at Shura were so mutilated that it would be impossible to collect evidence of sexual assault.
Haim Outmezgine, a senior member of ZAKA rescue services, a volunteer group that has collected most of the dead for burial, said Hamas’ crimes were evident in the remains of the deceased Israelis.
“It was clear that they were trying to spread as much horror as they could: kill, burn alive, rape – it seemed like their mission was to rape as many as possible,” Outmezgine told the Times of the terrorists.
Dozens of bodies were placed under a tent as officials collected the remains of 346 people at the Nova festival.
Israeli police are currently preparing cases against the Hamas terrorists who committed sexual assaults on October 7, with the aim of trying the gunmen for rape.
Along with the Israeli investigation into the rape allegations, the United Nations, after almost eight weeks of silence, has launched its own investigation into the sexual violence of which Hamas is accused.
“There are numerous accounts of sexual violence during the abhorrent acts of terrorism perpetrated by Hamas on October 7 that must be vigorously investigated and prosecuted,” United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a statement.
“Gender violence must be condemned. Whenever. Anywhere,” she said.
