Awad Darousha, an Israeli Arab citizen, was an ambulance driver who, during the Hamas terror attack on Saturday, worked with medical teams to save the lives of the wounded until Hamas terrorists murdered him as well. One of the 1300 victims of Hamas’ heinous terrorism and hellish diabolical massacre in Israel this week💔
Yeah- they kill whoever is in their way, Jewish or Arab they don’t care
#Hamas is Isis
07:00 PM
A Muslim doctor, a volunteer of the national volunteer organization – Ihud Hatzla, was shot and held as a hostage and as a human shield by Hamas in the first hours of the fighting until he was finally rescued by the Israel Defense Forces.
On Saturday morning, Dr. Tarek Abu Arar, a volunteer doctor at the Rescue Union, and a resident of Arara in the Negev, left his home for a routine shift in the Barzilai Hospital emergency room in Ashkelon.
When he reached the intersection near Sderot, he encountered a man who appeared to be injured and was lying on the side of the road near the road. “During those hours, there were no reports of any infiltration by terrorists,” said Dr. Abu Arar. transport When I saw the injured man on the side of the road, of course, I immediately stopped to offer him help.’
“I started to get closer, it seemed to me like a soldier lying on the side of the road. When I was about 50 meters away from him, he motioned for me to come closer, I walked a few more steps and when I was about 10 meters away from him he shot me in the chest. Like that, suddenly, because of place. I started shouting and praying, I was convinced I was going to die and I didn’t understand what was happening and then I heard someone shout in Arabic: ‘Stop, stop, he’s Arab’. That’s when I realized they were Hamas terrorists.
‘When I looked back, I saw about ten more men in military uniform come out from behind the bushes and start interrogating me in Arabic. They asked me questions to test my knowledge of Islam, they had Kalashnikovs and very advanced military equipment and they wore green uniforms that looked very similar to IDF uniforms.’
“They made me stand in the center of the intersection, in the middle of the road and told me: ‘That’s it, we have a hostage, the IDF can no longer eliminate us from the air.’ who got in their way. It was horrible and it lasted two hours. When the army arrived at the scene, a shootout broke out between the terrorists and the soldiers, with me acting as a human shield for the terrorists.’
“One of the terrorists shot me in the leg and signaled with his hand that the next bullet would be in my head. I started to bleed quite massively. During all this time I was praying for a miracle. I was convinced that I was going to die. It lasted about 45 minutes and then a commando force of the Navy arrived on the scene. They eliminated the terrorists and rescued me alive. They put a tourniquet on my leg and the ambulance that arrived drove me to Soroka Hospital where I was treated and released a few hours later.”
“It was the worst experience of my life. I have dedicated my whole life to helping others and saving lives, both in my profession as a doctor and in my volunteering at the rescue union. I was forced to witness this terrible massacre that was carried out in front of my eyes and I could not do anything. It was horrifying, I have no words to describe it, just awful.”
Dr. Tarek is a volunteer doctor at the Rescue Union and is currently recovering at home after being released from the hospital and is one of the six volunteers of the Rescue Union who were injured since the beginning of the war.
Darousha Awad, another Muslim volunteer, who medically secured the party in Ra’i, is one of the four volunteers of the Rescue Union who are currently considered missing.
David’s twin brother, Eitan, and his daughter Yuval, new to the daycare, along with their family, are hospitalized. They were suffocated by smoke in their bomb shelter when their house was set on fire.
Gali, not visible in the picture, was sitting in the corner. Her father is missing. He went out early that morning to protect the Kibbutz and hasn’t been found.
Dolev, Raz’s father, and Tamir, Neta’s father, also disappeared, abducted.
On the right is Alma, whose grandfather was also abducted. Next to Alma sits Shailo on his mother, Amit. His cousin is Omer, and Tamar from the selfie is his aunt. Amit lost her mother and her brother’s family.
At the very end sits Erez on his mother’s lap, a good friend of mine. Erez’s cousins, along with his aunt, uncle, and grandparents, were all kidnapped. Among them is a 9-month-old baby. I can’t help but worry about his care.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. One picture from the kindergarten graduation party at Kibbutz Nir Oz.
So, if the devil exists, he is here, and his name is Hamas, but its true name is ISIS.
Tamar, on the left in the selfie, radiated so much light. I always thought to myself, “I’d like to be her friend.” But, as usual, I never made the time. Always in a rush, always too busy. Now, it’s too late. The last time I saw her, she was loading her son, Omer, on her bicycle, with one of the girls behind. In awe, I asked how she managed it all. With a knowing smile, she said, “It’s easy! You have to try it!” She even shared some hot corn from her front basket with our sons. Omer, only 2 years old, with captivating blonde hair, was a name mentioned daily in my home. “Who did you play with today?” The answer was always, “Omer.”
Tragically, Tamar, her husband Johnny, Omer, and his two sisters were murdered.
In the middle of the photo are the twins, Emma and Yuli, three years old, with their parents, David and Sharon. I admired their constant smiles and patience. This entire family has been trapped in Gaza for four nights. The girls, fully aware of their surroundings, leave me wondering about their well-being.

August 2023, only a month and a half ago, was a Friday I remember vividly. It marked the graduation ceremony of the Rimon Daycare in Kibbutz Nir Oz. Now, as I look through the photos, I find myself asking, ‘Who is still with us? Who was murdered? Who was kidnapped?’ Each face in these photos has a name, a life behind it. They aren’t just numbers.

Roni Gelbfish:
These are Gidi and Noa Khayel, brother and sister who grew up in a large close-knit family in the Jezreel Valley, best friends, and two beautiful souls.
Gidi, 24, founded Radio Berlin, a party line that brings DJs from all over the world to Israel. Noa, 27 years old, was accepted for a master’s degree in neuroscience.
Together they went to dance at Shalom’s party, a sweet and good and happy brother and sister.
On Saturday, at half past six in the morning, a message arrived:
We drive and dodge the missiles, and they shoot at us.
And that’s it.
Since that announcement, the family has not heard from them or heard from them. Not from the state. not from anyone. Complete silence.
A father and mother are sitting alone, heart and soul torn, and know nothing. And no one came to even put a hand on the shoulder.
***Update: both Gidi and his sister Noa’s bodies were identified later they were murdered brutally by HAMAS.

Please don’t assume that a quiet day in our group reflects the situation in Israel—it most certainly does not. I urge you to pay attention to the video I sent.
For each incident recorded, note the following:
A. it tells you when it happened: whether it was twenty minutes ago, an hour, two hours, or more.
B. In the small brackets, note the amount of time people had to reach a protected space. This can vary from 15 seconds to a minute.
Just today, seven rockets were fired at the city of Sderot alone, and I’m not even discussing other areas at the moment.
Additionally, I want to emphasize that I am monitoring Gaza and Hamas networks. They have started to distribute videos—some authentic, some fabricated—depicting the aftermath of IDF shelling in Gaza. Remember, the reason for the current situation is crucial.
We haven’t been in Gaza since 2006. We didn’t just enter and start attacking; they intruded into our space, causing widespread havoc.
In the coming days, I will re-upload some videos that were initially shared in this group. I apologize to those who have already seen them, but as our group has grown significantly recently, everyone needs to see these videos.
I am selective about what I share and try to avoid videos that display dead bodies. However, some of the videos are still distressing, and occasionally there may be glimpses of casualties. I refrain from sharing the most graphic content, which Hamas propagates on its networks.
08:01 PM
I am almost sure this is the first time I’m sharing this video in real-time from when the massacre began.

The cruelty of Hamas is towards everything that moves, even a poor dog. Uncensored.

“In Holy and Pure Virtues”: 1,350 Soul Candles Lit Tonight at the Western Wall
It’s hard to grasp, but the number of those tragically lost in the “Iron Swords” war has reached 1,350. This somber fact was marked this evening at the Western Wall Plaza in a deeply emotional event, where 1,350 candles were lit. Each candle represented one of the holy souls who perished in the conflict, according to the latest figures known to the Zaka organization.
This gathering was not just an act of remembrance but a collective expression of the profound grief engulfing our nation, grappling with the worst disaster since the state’s founding. We gathered to honor the memory and elevate the souls of our holy brothers who were brutally slain without mercy, their spirits ascending amidst this catastrophic turmoil.
At this sacred site, before the remnants of our temple where the Shekinah still dwells, the candles were lit. They transformed into bright flames, a testament to the valor of these noble martyrs. May God avenge their blood.

I told you that in the coming days you will start receiving videos from Gaza, showing what is happening there now.
I am not coming to say that we are not shelling the Hamas concentrations in Gaza, we certainly are.
But I want you to see the following video that comes from a closed Hamas group in Gaza, none of them are Jewish or Israeli, turn up the volume and listen to the Arabic language – this is how propaganda is made.

Shots were fired at a police station in Jerusalem, wounding two policemen, one of them very seriously.
A terrorist armed with a Carlo rifle opened fire at police officers at the entrance to the Shalem police station. Large police forces were called to the scene and blocked all the gates in the Old City. Witnesses at the scene heard heavy gunfire. One of the injured is in serious condition and the other is in mild condition. The terrorist was killed by police gunfire.
How sick in the head do you need to be to post something like this?!
But the story has some tiny happy ending, the pizza place was destroyed later on in the evening.

“In his death, he saved us all”: the story of Ariel Bilya from Ofakim

“In his death, he saved us all”: the story of Ariel Bilya from Ofakim
For the original Hebrew article, click here. Ariel-Arik Bilya, who fought in Givat and worked at the Kerem Shalom crossing, took an iron rod and ensured his family’s safety but was murdered. For hours, they hid on the roof: “He watched over us.” Ariel-Arik Bilya’s funeral was held on Thursday afternoon in Ofakim. The circumstances of the shocking murder are considered the family’s sad miracle. “In his death, he saved ten people,” says his brother-in-law, Michal Tzbari-Bilia from Kibbutz Sa’ad.
On Shabbat Simchat Torah, Michal and Guy Zabri woke up with their children at their grandparents’ house in Ofakim to the sound of alarm sirens. They were soon joined by their sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Shoshana and Ariel, with their children, “so that we can be together during the alarms.”
After a few minutes, when they went outside to try to understand the situation, they recognized the sound of gunshots. When they ran home, they locked the door and all went upstairs to a side room. Through the window, they saw eight soldiers coming up the street, and in front of them ran a policeman holding a gun, who seemed to be advancing in their direction to join them in trying to locate the source of the shots.
But then there was a terrible and completely unexpected turn: the “soldiers” opened fire on the policeman and killed him. “My husband Guy still opened the window and screamed to them that it was ours,” says Michal Biliya-Zabari, and at the same time, this heroic policeman took cover behind a trash can, raised his police hat, and shouted to them ‘from our forces’. Without reason, they advanced a few more steps, killed him, and continued to climb, only when they got closer did we realize: we heard them speaking Arabic. We understood that these were terrorists.”
“We told the children to be quiet and after a few minutes of fear of death, we heard the voices of the terrorists when they were already trying to break into the house. They tried to open the door and then broke the blinds on the large window in the living room. All this, while they were talking to each other and we could hear everything,” she added.
The one who took command was Ariel. After all, he was an Orav-Givati warrior who worked safely at the Kerem Shalom
crossing.
“My hero brother-in-law took an iron rod that was in the room and stood at the entrance while he and I, with phones, tried to reach the police who were not answering,” said his sister-in-law Michal in a post she shared on Facebook.
“For a few seconds, we debated what to do and then Ariel said – get out now. There were eleven of us in the room, including our little Asif who was born only a month ago. His wife opened the window, and one by one, we started going out to the roof of the warehouse and from there to the roof of the neighbors. Ariel did not follow us, and I hoped he was hiding at home because the terrorists were already really close, but he didn’t have time to come out.
“We went into Uncle Shemesh’s hiding place. The children lay face down on the floor under the blankets, and we clung to the walls,” she continued. “We don’t know how long we were there exactly, but it was over three hours of uncertainty about Ariel. The little kids probably understood the situation and kept absolute silence during the hours when we were exposed to unending bursts of gunfire, an RPG missile was shot at us into the house when we were on the roof, and shouts of ‘grenade’, and then a tremendous boom and a horrifying silence.
Alarms and a direct hit on the house on the opposite street, we heard the righteous citizens who were organizing for war down the street, the calls to rescue the wounded.
We also heard the terrorists who were on the roofs next to us, and they knew we were on the roof because they saw my mother-in-law running from the window.
It’s a miracle they didn’t shoot her, a miracle they didn’t follow us to the roof. In the meantime, we also heard our forces that arrived on the street, saying that we should shoot at the rooftops because that’s where the terrorists are. But we were there too. Guy stuck his head out of the walls of the hideout and signaled to the soldiers with a cap and a pacifier that we were Jews and there were children here. With the help of our hands, we signaled to them that we were 10 people, and after some time, they raised a drone over us to verify it,” she said in her testimony.
Michal stated that the terrorists were pushed into inner streets and a soldier reached the roof. “The relief was enormous,” recalls Michal. “But it lasted a very short time. The scans revealed that dear Ariel, the happiest and funniest little brother in the family, was murdered. The terrorist shot him when he left the window and all this time he was lying dead a few meters next to us, and we didn’t even know. In his death, he saved us all and may have already protected us from above with all the miracles that happened to us on the roof.”
The inferno did not end there. “The soldiers took us down from the roof to the neighbors’ house because there were other terrorists on the street and two houses away from us was the house with the hostages. We stayed there, 20 people in a two-bedroom apartment all day and all night when there were still gunshots, alarms, and explosions outside until the next morning.
Rotem and Chen, our dear neighbors, took care of everything we needed – food, clothes, beds, and telephones, all with a wide and caring heart. In the morning, we woke up to a street full of corpses, a house burned and turned upside down because it turns out that in addition to the rocket they fired into the house, they also entered and turned the rooms one by one to find us.”
“It’s a tragic miracle,” says Lavala! Sister-in-law Michal. “We were at one funeral instead of eleven. The end is sad and happy together, but that’s our ‘writing’. An event like this stops life and changes it and at first, it sowed a lot of fear in us, but very quickly we reset and remember that we actually have a strong army and a great country, and we will overcome it. We hope this is the last time something like this happens.”

I received a new video, and I’m in tears now. I saw and shared the first video when we thought they were taken to Gaza… but apparently, they didn’t even leave the kibbutz. #ShareTheTruth #HamasisISIS
01:40 AM
Earlier this evening, I sent the following message: A group of young people from the party, who hid inside a container or shelter, are seen alive in the full video just moments before they were sprayed with bullets.
I also wrote this: I must warn you in advance, the next video is extremely difficult to watch. Although it has been somewhat censored, you can still see the bodies. It’s a very challenging video to watch.
Yet, we owe it to the victims not to look away.
We must confront death directly, promising never to forget and never to forgive.
It’s unfair to the victims to shy away from the truth and not see the moments before, when everyone, still alive, was hidden in a shelter. This shelter, meant to protect them from rockets, tragically became a death cage. I have decided to share the original video without censoring anything.
**Please exercise caution when watching this; it contains a lot of blood and shows dead bodies. I hate to have to do this, but I cannot hide the reality.

spontaneous candle lighting took place in Dizengoff Square in Tel Aviv. The small sign reads: ‘The words have run out.’
I cannot find a way to summarize this sad day, nor can I summarize these six terrible days. Worse still, I don’t know if even God knows when this will end.
Can I wish you a good night?
How can the night be good when the days are so dark?
Take care of yourselves,
love you all,
please share the truth.
