REPORT: IDF video apparently shows father and son confessing to raping Israeli woman

A Hamas fighter and his son apparently admitted to raping an Israeli woman during the surprise attack on Israel on October 7 in a video exclusively obtained by the Daily Mail.

In video footage released by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), both individuals describe in detail the sexual assaults and murders in which they were allegedly involved, according to an exclusive report by the Daily Mail.

Jamal Hussein Ahmad Radi, 47, and his son Abdallah, 18, were captured by the Israeli army and interrogated about their alleged involvement in the October 7 attack, Daily Mail reported. According to an English translation of the Israeli video, the two men appear to describe their involvement in the murder of innocent people, several kidnappings and the rape of Israeli women.

“Approximately how old was the victim who was raped by your father?” the interrogator seemed to ask Abdallah at the beginning of the interrogation clip.

“About 30 years old,” he replied, according to the translation.

“Your father was the first to rape?” the interrogator seemed to continue.

“Yes,” the son reportedly confirmed, according to the translation. “Then Ahmed and I raped her too and then left. But I left before my father and Hassan. Ahmed and I left.”

“You left after you raped her?” the interrogator appeared to say in the IDF video.

“Yes, after we raped her,” Abdallah is said to have replied according to the translation and then apparently said that they had left the house.

“Was she alive?” the interrogator seemed to ask.

“No… my father killed her,” the son allegedly replied, according to the translation. “After raping her, my father killed her.” (RELATED TOPIC: ‘Torn to pieces’: Witnesses give vivid accounts of Hamas’ sexual violence against Israeli women)

The IDF video then switches to a man who appears to be questioning the interrogator, namely the father, Radi.

“How old were the children you kidnapped and handed over to Hamas?” the interrogator seems to ask.

“Young people. 7 to 10 to 12 years old,” Radi is said to have replied, according to the translation.

“How many men were in this group of arrested settlers?” the interrogator seems to continue.

“About 5,” the father allegedly replied, according to the translation. He allegedly said the others were “women and children.”

When the interrogator appeared to ask what else had happened, he apparently claimed that their terrorist group had shot five young men and women who, according to the translation, “fell to the ground.” He apparently did not know whether they had survived.

Before this incident, Abdallah is said to have confessed to raping two people, Daily Mail reported, citing interrogation by the Israeli army. However, this is not found in the clip published by Daily Mail.

Shortly after the surprise attack, reports emerged that Hamas terrorists had raped Israeli women, the Associated Press reported. A United Nations investigation in March found that there was “clear and convincing information” that Hamas fighters had committed crimes against hostages they had abducted to Gaza, “including rape and sexual torture, and sexual cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.”
