Dating-app traps, organized ambushes: anti-LGBTQ violence hits record high in the Zionist Entity.

Israel’s 2025 LGBTQ-phobia report finds a sharp rise in public attacks and fake dating-profile traps, with transgender people bearing the brunt of violence despite being a minority within the community

A report published Sunday by the Association for LGBTQ Equality in Israel presents an unusually severe picture of anti-LGBTQ hatred in 2025, warning that online abuse is increasingly spilling into public spaces and turning into physical attacks, some of them allegedly carried out by organized groups.

According to the report, at least one physical assault against an LGBTQ person occurs in Israel every week. Physical attacks accounted for half of all reported public-space incidents this year, a sharp rise from 32% in the previous report. Cases of extortion and threats also climbed dramatically, from 3% of reports last year to 13.5% this year.

Nevermind the pinkwashing, here's the real Israel: anti-LGBTQ violence hits an all-time high.

The Hebrew version of the article also includes a testimony by a female IDF captain who was assaulted along with her girlfriend in a town in central Israel.
