What was the reason for the Benjamite war?

The Benjamite War, also known as the Civil War of Israel, occurred in the Book of Judges in The Bible. It was sparked by a horrific incident involving a Levite and his concubine in the city of Gibeah, where the men of Benjamin committed acts of violence and sexual assault. In response to this atrocity, the other Israelite tribes sought justice and demanded the punishment of the perpetrators, leading to a conflict between the tribe of Benjamin and the rest of Israel. The war ultimately resulted in significant loss of life and the near annihilation of the Benjamite tribe.
