Israel must combat sexual violence in all forms, from October 7's atrocities to daily, hidden assaults. The fight against sexual violence in Israel must go beyond the October 7 massacre and address the ongoing issue of sexual violence in everyday contexts. The state must confront and acknowledge the sexual violence that occurs daily and provide long-term treatment and rehabilitation for survivors. The statistics on sexual violence in Israel are harrowing, with one in three women, one in five children, and one in six men experiencing abuse. It is crucial for Israeli society to prioritize this issue and take serious and systematic action to address it.
