UNICEF, the UN humanitarian organization dedicated to providing relief to children, issued a statement condemning the sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas in Israel on October 7, roughly two months after Hamas's rampage in southern Israel.
The UNICEF statement was published on the organization's Instagram account on Wednesday. The statement failed to mention or condemn Hamas.
"The accounts of sexual violence on 7 October in Israel are horrific," UNICEF wrote. "Survivors must be heard, supported, and provided with care. Allegations must be fully investigated. We condemn gender-based violence and all forms of violence against women and girls."
