Israel Releases Video of Hamas Terrorists Admitting to Shocking Plans

The Israel Securities Authority (ISA) made a disturbing revelation on Monday when it released a video clip allegedly featuring Hamas terrorists confessing to their involvement in the heinous terror attacks that took place in southern Israel on October 7.

Supplied by ISA Communications, the video corroborates the statements made by the implicated Hamas members during their subsequent interrogations. These revelations have sent shockwaves throughout the region, raising grave concerns about the lengths to which such groups would go.

A particularly chilling part of the video reportedly features a Hamas operative disclosing their promised rewards for abducting Israeli civilians and taking them to Gaza. The voice can be heard stating, "Whoever kidnaps a hostage and brings them to Gaza is to get a stipend of USD 10,000 and an apartment."

Furthermore, the video brings to light even more harrowing details. These terrorists allege they received explicit directions to target the most vulnerable: elderly women and children. The objective? To "cleanse the houses and kidnap as many prisoners as possible," as relayed by one of the confessing terrorists.

These revelations, while deeply unsettling, serve as a crucial piece of evidence in understanding the tactics and motivations behind such radical organizations and their heinous acts. As investigations continue, the world watches closely, anticipating further insights and hoping for peace and security to prevail.

One terrorist chillingly recounts an incident involving a victim's pet, "Her dog came out and I shot him." His confession didn't end there. He further revealed, "Her body was lying on the floor, I shot her too." What's more, he added that his commander reproached him, not for the act itself but for "wasting bullets on a corpse."

Another operative described the subsequent destruction they caused post their horrendous act, stating, "We finished what we came to do and then burned down two houses."

The ISA, as it delves deeper into its investigation of the October 7 attacks, highlighted the recurring nature and manner of crimes committed. The footage sheds light on the explicit orders these terrorists received from Hamas to engage in murder and abduction of innocent civilians, with a distressing focus on targeting the elderly, women, and children. The video also uncovers other harrowing details of the massacre.

A telling revelation by the ISA points to the hierarchy within the Hamas organization. The senior commanders, specifically those at the rank of company commander and above, reportedly chose to stay ensconced in safe houses or in hiding. In stark contrast, they sent their foot soldiers to face the line of fire, risking capture, injury, or death in Israel.

Israel's Security Forces have asserted their unyielding resolution to bring all culprits to justice. Their statement was decisive: "The Security Forces of the State of Israel will settle all accounts with all terrorists who participated in the massacre on 7/10."

The scale and coordination of the assault were unprecedented. As many as 2,500 Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel, using land, air, and sea routes, executing terror acts against unsuspecting civilians in southern Israel.

During an official broadcast, the audience was strictly instructed against recording the footage shown. However, a brief and haunting clip, spanning roughly a minute, was made available to the public. This video segment captured a terrifying scene on a secluded rural road, where Hamas militants can be seen flagging down a slow-moving vehicle. Moments later, gunshots rang out, targeting the car. The aftermath was horrifying: as the vehicle came to a screeching halt, the forms of two individuals were seen motionless in the front seats, falling victim to this blatant act of terror.

Recent revelations, in the form of disturbing video footage, have shed more light on the heinous crimes perpetrated by Hamas fighters during the October 7 massacre in Israel. Each piece of footage is a harrowing testament to the chilling brutality exhibited by the attackers.

In one particular segment, the audacity of the Hamas attackers becomes evident. They are seen entering a household where a young girl, estimated to be between the ages of 7 and 9, is cowering in fear under a table. As per the account by Jotam Confino, a correspondent present at the screening, after a brief exchange, the terrorists ruthlessly shoot and kill the child.

Yet another disturbing scene captures the desperation of a father and his two sons, approximately aged seven and nine. Clad only in their underwear, the trio is seen making a desperate dash towards what seems to be a bomb shelter. Their frantic escape is tragically cut short when a Hamas attacker hurls a grenade in their direction. The explosion claims the life of the father, leaving the two young boys covered in blood and in utter shock. One of the boys, struggling to come to terms with the reality of the situation, can be heard exclaiming, "Dad’s dead, it wasn’t a prank." His brother, equally traumatized, responds with, "I know, I saw it," only to later give voice to his overwhelming grief by screaming, "Why am I alive?"

The footage does not end there. In a particularly savage scene, a militant is seen using an agricultural tool to brutally attack the head of a man lying defenseless on the ground. Another segment showcases gunmen heartlessly gunning down wounded female Israeli soldiers. And in a final display of sheer malevolence, a euphoric Hamas fighter is heard making a call to his family using a fallen Jewish woman’s phone, boasting, "I killed 10 Jews with my own hands."

Each segment of this footage adds another layer to the chilling narrative of the October 7 events, underscoring the unbridled brutality and terror that unfolded on that fateful day.

In the video, an Israeli woman can be seen inspecting the partially burned corpse of another woman. The lifeless body, found in a demeaning state with its dress pulled up and underpants removed, gives credence to the chilling claims made by Maj Gen Mickey Edelstein that there was evidence pointing towards acts of rape during the terror spree.

Another heart-wrenching image that surfaced was that of a decapitated soldier. The photographic evidence did not stop at that – charred remains of young children and adults were displayed, revealing the true extent of the carnage. Tellingly, amidst the horrifying aftermath, several flags of the Islamic State were found at the scene, leading R Adm Daniel Hagari to emphasize the parallels between Hamas and Isis.

As if the visuals weren't harrowing enough, the numbers themselves paint a bleak picture – over 1,400 Israelis lost their lives in this onslaught. Yet, in a disturbing twist, Eylon Levy, an Israeli government spokesperson, highlighted a troubling trend: denialism regarding the magnitude of the atrocities, likening it to "Holocaust denial-like phenomenon."

As calls intensify urging Israel to cease its airstrikes on Gaza, the region bears witness to the growing tragedies of the recent bombings. In a heart-wrenching update, the Hamas-run health ministry revealed that a staggering 400 Palestinians lost their lives in just the past 24 hours. This spike in casualties escalates the overall death count in Gaza to a distressing total of over 5,000, with 2,055 of these being innocent children.

In an apparent move to shed light on the situation, the Israeli military screened a compilation for foreign journalists. This move, however, coincided with yet another day of heavy airstrikes battering Gaza.

The screened visuals offered a bleak look into the devastation wrought by the conflict. Images captured the grim reality of blood-soaked bodies strewn across various settings – from homes to roadsides. One particularly haunting scene showed an emergency medical responder, in a desperate bid to quell flames, pouring mineral water over the charred remains of victims. Among the dead was an infant, showing clear signs of violence inflicted upon them.

The brutality didn't end there. The compilation also showcased gruesome scenes of soldiers who had been beheaded, young women who had been viciously assaulted, and prisoners in Gaza being surrounded and taunted by armed men.

This 44 minutes of chilling footage, is meticulously curated from a vast archive of material gathered about the Hamas-led attacks on October 7. The sources of this raw footage ranged from Hamas body cameras, dashcams, traffic cameras, to closed-circuit TV, and even included distressing content from the mobile phones and social media accounts of victims, soldiers, and emergency responders.

This revelation was made available to foreign journalists at a time when Israel has been intensifying its airstrikes on Gaza, a response to the horrific acts of terror instigated by Hamas. As a result of the escalating conflict, the death toll in Gaza has tragically risen above 5,000, a figure reported by the Hamas-run health ministry. These figures, though harrowing, underscore Israel's commitment to defend its citizens and sovereignty against extremist threats.

In an effort to maintain the integrity of the footage and possibly because of its graphic content, the Israeli military explicitly advised reporters against recording it. It's important to note that sections of this footage have been corroborated independently by credible sources like The New York Times, and some excerpts have been circulated on social media platforms.

Seeking to provide a rationale for their wartime actions, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the chief military spokesperson, emphasized the objective behind sharing the footage. In his words, the intention was to understand "why we are in a war and what we are fighting for." Further underscoring the gravity of the situation, he denounced the Hamas-led assaults, labeling them not merely as acts of war but as a "crime against humanity."

The footage opens with Hamas gunmen shooting at civilian cars and at people running across open fields as they flee the site of an open-air music festival. They whoop in triumph over their victims.

A particularly harrowing clip from a closed-circuit camera chronicles a man's desperate attempt to shield two young boys from imminent danger as the blaring sirens signal incoming rocket fire. In only their underpants, they race to the sanctuary of a nearby bomb shelter. Tragically, the sanctuary becomes a death trap when assailants lying in wait hurl a grenade into the shelter. While the man loses his life, the traumatized boys manage to escape, with one, in his shock and pain, lamenting his loss of sight. Another boy's heartbreaking cry resonates with the sheer anguish of the moment, asking, "Why am I alive?"

The depravity continues in a different village. An attacker takes pride in his gruesome actions, using an Israeli woman's phone to boast to his parents in Gaza, "I killed 10 Jews with my bare hands!" His chilling proclamation to his mother, "Mom, your son is a hero!" starkly contrasts the tragedy of the situation.

Other videos only compound the horror, showing victims helplessly gagged, their hands cruelly tied behind them. The emotional and physical toll is etched on their faces – expressions of sheer terror, pain, and disbelief. The graphic nature of the footage reveals women, their bones brutally fractured, contorted in ways that defy human anatomy.

The nation, still grappling with the sheer magnitude of the tragedy, has had little respite to come to terms with its grief. The looming shadow of further confrontations only exacerbates the collective anxiety and sorrow.

For Admiral Hagari, memorializing this dark chapter is not just about the present moment but safeguarding the memories for future generations. Drawing a somber parallel, he remarked that this was the most grievous day the Jewish community had endured since the horrors of the Holocaust. In his resolve, he declared, “We will not let the world forget,” emphasizing the significance of the event in shaping the nation's identity and resolve.

Yet, the reverberations of the conflict go beyond Israel's borders. The retaliation has resulted in a catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The United Nations highlights the dire situation of around 1.4 million residents of Gaza – over half its population. Displaced by the bombings, they are trapped in a devastating predicament, lacking basic necessities like water, food, and medicine. Pre-emptive strikes by Israeli forces hint at a broader ground offensive on the horizon.

The brutal onslaught on Oct. 7 led to the tragic loss of 1,400 lives, with reports suggesting a significant number were non-combatants. The audacity of some assailants knew no bounds, as highlighted by reports from The Times of Israel that indicated they kidnapped at least 222 civilians, taking them to the heart of Gaza. The complexity and enormity of the situation underscore the intricate tapestry of grief, anger, and determination woven across the region.
