TL;DR

The group of illegal workers suspected of the brutal gang rape of an Israeli woman in Ramla a week ago have been arrested, according to the source. The suspects had fled to the village of Yata, but Gideon fighters tracked them down and detained them.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The arrests come a week after the gang rape of an Israeli woman in Ramla by a group of illegal workers present in Israel without authorization. The victim was reportedly assaulted over several hours. One suspect was arrested in the immediate aftermath, but the others fled to the village of Yata, south of Hebron. On Wednesday, the source reported that a unit referred to as 'Gideon fighters' located the remaining suspects and arrested them, 'closing the account.' The channel did not provide the exact number of suspects detained or further details on the operation. The Zioneer reported on June 28 that the original incident drew widespread condemnation, with critics alleging a double standard in media coverage of attacks on Jewish women by Arab perpetrators.
