“The cruelty and abuse the victims suffered at the hands of these defendants was horrific and has continued to have a lasting impact on their lives today,” said Ms Becker.
Stuart Cobb, senior investigating officer at the NCA, said: “These men were cruel and manipulative, grooming their victims and then exploiting them by subjecting them to the most harrowing abuse possible.
“They were responsible for some of the worst offending we have investigated under Operation Stovewood.”
All seven men lived in or around Rotherham at the time of the abuse.
Amar, Ajaibe, Sadiq and Sayib abused one victim, while Yassin and Bari targeted the other.
Saddiq, who was already serving a 20-year prison sentence for sexual offences prior to this hearing, abused both girls.
The court heard how the attacks took place at locations around Rotherham, including a park, in a car in a supermarket car park, in a cemetery and behind a children’s nursery.
Mr Cobb added: “What happened to them can never be undone, but I hope the sentences handed down here will at least give them a sense that their abusers have been held to account and justice has been done.
“We and our partners will continue to do all we can to support them going forward.”
