This is the best summary I could come up with:
It was just after 6 a.m. on Oct. 7 when the first missiles appeared in the sky, kicking off hours of violence in southern Israel as Hamas militants carried out a terror attack that killed at least 1,200 people.
Rami Shmael —who produced the Supernova music festival, where at least 260 people were massacred on Oct. 7— returned the following day and witnessed its aftermath.
Israeli investigators tell CBS News the priority after the Oct. 7 attack was identifying the victims, so they did not collect evidence of sexual assault.
But they say there are eyewitness accounts, photos, interrogation statements and circumstantial evidence pointing to sexual attacks.
In a letter this week, a bipartisan group of 33 U.S. senators urged the United Nations to open an independent investigation into what the senators call “a growing body of evidence” that Hamas committed acts of sexual violence against Israelis.
A supervisor with the Israeli search and recovery team in charge of collecting the bodies showed CBS News some of the injuries he saw and documented, including women whose bodies had lacerations, stabbings and gunshots to their genital area.
