      Senior human rights investigators reporting to the UN Human Rights Council alleged on Thursday that sexual and gender-based violence by Israeli security forces against Palestinians – including children - have been increasingly used “as a method of war” following the 7 October 2023 attacks that sparked the Gaza war.

      They're not satisfied with just killing them; they are attempting to snuff out the humanity of their victims before destroying their bodies. I don't think there's anything more horrific than that.

    I really recommend Jasbir Puar’s “The Right To Maim” for an excellent, albeit dense, theory of why this happens.
