(en) France, UCL AL #347 - Editorial - Women's bodies, a perpetual war zone (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Tue, 26 Mar 2024 07:51:50 +0200


In the war which has pitted Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip against the State of Israel since October 7, women are paying, as is unfortunately customary, a heavy price. ---- Women's bodies are the preferred target of acts of war committed against civilian populations. On November 14, a veil was lifted on the atrocities committed on October 7, specifically on the bodies of women: genital mutilation and rape, often followed by the assassination of the victim, were recorded by the dozens.
On February 19, it was a UN agency which denounced "cases of rape and sexual assault committed against Palestinian women and girls detained by the Israeli authorities". The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights relayed these accusations. Today in Palestine, as yesterday in Sudan, women are the first civilian victims of war. In both camps, men, soldiers, sure of their right, attack the bodies of women to better humiliate the enemy. It is not only in conflict zones that women are victims of patriarchy.

In France, the collective #NousToutes gathered on February 8 in memory of the 900 women victims of feminicides committed since Emmanuel Macron's first five-year term - remember that the latter had made equality between women and men a " great national cause. To no longer make women and the violence committed against them invisible, let's all mobilize on March 8 for the feminist strike and make it a renewable strike until the abolition of patriarchy!
