Indeed things got so desperate for the Israeli campaign I noted one story where the distinctly not-raped released hostage claimed the male of the family whom she was being kept with "raped her with his eyes" or some such nonsense. Does anyone have a ref for this one?: I confess it was so ludicrous I didn't take down the source at the time.
This campaign is, needless to say, built on a foundation of orientalist anti-Semitic trope. This latter one reminded me of the subjective fantasies in Martin Amis' self reportage of a casual encounter with an old Arab guy whom Amis immediately "knew" ...again judging "...by his eyes" that this poor pensioner definately wanted to murder him...because, well, that's what Arabs are like.
"...There's no shortage of allegations of "rape by Hamas" in the media which gives these prominence at an exponential level but... have any at all been made by anyone outside the third party claims of propaganda state organisations in collusion with a rabid Israeli approving media? By any of the women for example?
We even have the US President freshly claiming knowledge of all these "rapes and mutilations" here:

...Yet the President had of course previously also claimed to have seen pictures of Hamas "terrorists beheading children.": a statement that was quickly retracted by the State dept and was, as it turned out, a total crock.
Interestingly this claim seems somewhat timed to coordinate with other IDF claims that Hamas marksmen were deliberately targeting female Israeli soldiers "breasts and crotches"... And further Israeli police claims of Hamas promulgating "...gender based violence". These join the many further suggestions that Hamas had kept female hostages back for similar nefarious reasons.
Needless to say this all makes it pretty likely that what we are looking at is an actual US/ Israeli propaganda campaign running presently and at the highest levels which is actually targeting your very concern."
