"Ms. Alsalem, you said there was no evidence of sexual violence on Oct 7. I'm standing here today, not as a report, not as a statistic. I'm a woman who survived. I'm the living proof of sexual violence by Hamas."
Powerful speech by ex-hostage Ilana Gritzewsky today at the UN.
Celebrating Israelโs 78th Independence Day at the heart of international Geneva ๐ฎ๐ฑ
We were honored to host a reception that brought together ambassadors, diplomats, representatives of the UN and international organizations, and civil society.

Pleased to initiate a UN event with Israeli NGO @Ruach_Nashit (Womenโs Spirit) and @UKMissionGeneva & @LatviaUN_Geneva, to highlight the the urgent need to eliminate economic abuse against women.
Commemorating 2 years since the October 7 massacre at @UNGeneva with DG Valovaya and representatives from many countries, with a briefing by Prof. Ruth Halperin-Kaddari on The Dinah Project โ seeking recognition and justice to victims of the sexual violence committed by Hamas.
As the session of the Human Rights Council opened this morning, a terror attack struck Jerusalem, Israelโs capitalโyet again exposing the glaring reality of the conflict on the ground that the HRC consistently fails to acknowledge.
"Prohibition of torture: The need to recognise hostages & their families as direct victims"
Thank you @ijl_jewish, @bringhomenow & @GermanyUNGeneva for organizing this timely event on hostage-taking as a form of torture, highlighting the important work of @DrAliceJEdwards.
Geneva stands with Bibas family ๐งก
Tonight, together with @UNGeneva ambassadors and Jewish community, we mourned the unthinkable murder of Kfir, Ariel and Shiri in the Hamas captivity and called for the liberation of the 63 remaining hostages.
On the 25th and 26th of February, Kfir, Ariel, and Shiri Bibas, as well as Oded Lifschitz, are laid to rest, as the country grieves as one.
We call on the @UN and UN Member States to unequivocally condemn Hamas and call for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages so that our people can begin to heal.

Today, the UN in Geneva stood still in memory of over 1200 murdered in Israel during the terrorist attacks by Hamas on October 7.
One year later, our resolve to return the 101 hostages still held in Gaza and to defend Israel from terrorism remains relentless.
