Freed Israeli Hostage Recounts Horrific Sexual Assaults by Hamas Captors: “I Just Wanted Him to Stop”

ISRAEL — A freed Israeli hostage has come forward with disturbing details of the sexual violence he endured during nearly two years in Hamas captivity following the October 7, 2023 terror attacks.
Guy Gilboa-Dalal, who was abducted from the Nova music festival, described being stripped naked and subjected to repeated sadistic sexual assaults by his captors.

In a harrowing account, Gilboa-Dalal said he felt powerless during the abuse, stating:
“I couldn’t do anything, I just wanted him to stop.”
His testimony sheds new light on the brutal conditions faced by hostages held by Hamas, including reports of systematic physical and sexual torment.
Gilboa-Dalal was among those released or rescued in operations that have brought some hostages home, though many others remain in captivity. His story adds to growing international documentation of the atrocities committed during and after the October 7 attacks.
Advocates for the hostages continue to press for the immediate release of all remaining captives, highlighting the urgent humanitarian crisis.
The Israeli government and hostage families have repeatedly condemned Hamas for its treatment of those taken, calling for global pressure to secure their freedom.
