NEWSRAEL: Amnesty and HRW finally in a report about Hamas! No, not a word about its terrorism, incitement of hatred against Jews - but about a father's violent abuse of his daughters. Terrorism is fine according to them.
Amnesty International is gravely concerned for the safety of two Palestinian women who have not been heard from since 6 January, after the Palestinian security services in the Gaza Strip forced them back into the custody of their abusive father.
Wissam al-Tawil, 24, and her sister Fatimah, 20, have faced multiple forms of violence at the hands of their father, including beatings, death threats and “interrogations”. On two occasions, the women’s father locked them in a room on the sixth floor of a residential building owned by family – the first time for 35 days.
At 12.45 am on 6 January, one of the sisters sent a message to Amnesty International which read: “We are at our father’s house; he will send us over to the sixth floor in a bit. We are doomed.” They have not been heard from since.
"The authorities in the Gaza Strip have gifted Wissam and Fatimah’s father the opportunity to carry out his threats. The sisters’ lives are in imminent danger." ~Heba Morayef
