CCTV footage shows Israeli women’s miracle escape from Hamas gunmen

This is the moment two Israeli women managed to escape a Hamas attack on a kibbutz as Hamas began its massacre, before being saved by IDF soldiers. CCTV footage taken in the early hours of Saturday show a white 4×4 pulling up to the Yachini kibbutz, less than four miles from the Gaza border, behind another white car with its boot open. Eight armed Hamas terrorists jump out the tailgate and the car itself, and they begin to swarm the gated compound.

The two women managed to escape the kibbutz, as IDF soldiers appear to be slowly moving towards them. The women wave to the IDF soldiers as a Hamas gunman rushes out of the gate, before firing at the four soldiers from behind the white car. Dust is kicked up by IDF and Hamas bullets, and the two Israeli women are forced to run and use the same car for cover.

Another Hamas shooter can be seen standing behind the gate and firing towards the IDF soldiers. A Hamas gunman runs towards them, seemingly to get a better shot at the IDF soldiers, as the blonde woman desperately tries to look for an opportunity to get out of the crossfire. The video, shared to the South First Responders Telegram channel, cuts to another CCTV camera, which shows the back window of the car shattered, revealing how close bullets were flying to the two civilians.

Before long, three of the IDF’s soldiers run over to make sure that the area is secure, before one of them talks to the women and they are told to run away. The video is thought to be one the first attacks by Hamas fighters inflicted on communities across southern Israel as part of its campaign against the Jewish state. While Yachini was among the first kibbutz’s to be attacked, the horrors witnessed there pale in comparison to what happened at during the Be’eri massacre. Photos passed on to MailOnline by the Israeli Embassy in London , most of which were too graphic to publish, depicted several dead bodies strewn across a small room in the Be’eri kibbutz of around 1,000 people near the border with Gaza, in which at least 100 people were killed by Hamas terrorists.

Dozens of bullet holes can be seen peppered across the facade of a two-story home in the isolated community, which was one of the first to be attacked by Hamas at around 7am, with mounds of rubble strewn in front. Inside the bedroom of one home, three dead bodies were left to rot by Hamas fighters, who killed at least 100 people in the community on Saturday. 

One survivor, Haim Jelin, told local media that Hamas fighters ‘walked around Be’eri like they owned the place.’ ‘They shot indiscriminately, abducted whoever they could, burned down people’s homes so they’d have to escape through the window, where the terrorists would wait,’ he added. A woman called Miri Gad Mesika told local media that she and her husband were choking on thick smoke and gas fumes as they tried to hide.
