‘They shot a baby’: Hamas attack survivor recounts terror in Israel kibbutz | POLITICO

As Hamas militants unleashed a campaign of terror across Israel on Saturday, Adi Efrat was one of many Israelis taken captive near the Gaza border.

During the hours that followed, armed Hamas terrorists forcibly moved her between houses — often under gunfire — in the kibbutz of Be’eri, located east of the Gaza Strip. At one of these locations, she was witness to their unflinching brutality and left to comfort a distraught woman who said her husband and three-month-old daughter had just been shot dead.

In this video, she shares her story.

I don't care what your political ideology is: you do NOT shoot a baby!

[computermech]

This is what Pakistani army did to 3 million Bangladeshi civilians in 1971. Google 1971 Bangladesh genocide. I saw with my own eyes. That's why I support Israel. Not terrorists.

[leila]

I can't even fathom how someone could shoot a 3 month old baby or even hurt an innocent child. But even worse I can't imagine the immense pain of watching somebody kill your baby. I'm so angry for this mother. I'm so sorry for what you've all been through. I just can't believe it has really happened. No words

[CrystalDMay]

Monsters!!!! That poor woman who saw her baby shot is now broken beyond repair. Pure evil.

[Bruski.]

Stop calling Hamas militants and call them what they are terrorists or war criminals.

no matter what your faith, race, or sort of behavior against another human is not of this earth....

[LK-pbno]

My heart goes out to everyone who is impacted by this situation but especially to the mothers who have to see their child killed because these people are not human and have no heart! How damaged are you to have to kill an innocent baby!

[tinacronhimer]

My thoughts and prayers to those that are in Israel, and to those that lost their families. God Bless to them and their families 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This is absolutely barbaric. Nobody should have to go through such horrific things.

[greyjay]

In the face of that barbarity, she remained calm, and helped a young boy.
Bless her.

My heart and soul are broken 😞 for this woman and what she had to bare witness too. Bless you and thank you for being brave enough to share your story and to give strength to that little boy and his wounded Mother. How the F do you shot a 3 month old baby in front of their Mother. 😰🤬. I do NOT give a damn about where you are politically or what your views are. You DO NOT kill a baby especially in front of their Mother. I pray that Justice ⚖️ will be served and ALL that are responsible for these crimes from the planning to the implementation and executions WILL be punished. I pray for Israel 🇮🇱, my family and friends in Israel 🇮🇱, the IDF and the Hostages. 🙏🏽🇮🇱🕊️😇💪🏽🦁❌⭕️😰
