An elite Hamas brigade attacked Kibbutz Nir Oz, which is very close to the Gaza Strip, for 18 hours.
(Special envoy to Tel Aviv, Israel) A trip to terrorist hell that was not yet known. A modern highway heading south leads to a two-lane road that is flanked by the desert. As the kilometers pass, the border with Egypt (Rafah) approaches, and three hours later the signs appear indicating Kibbutz Nir Oz, the first target attacked by Hamas in its bloody terrorist operation on October 7. At that extreme point in Israel you can hear missiles exploding very close. You can already smell the war.

At the entrance gate of Kibbutz Nir Oz, three young soldiers with boots covered by desert sand ask for press accreditation. The officer in charge, a redhead, 22 years old, takes out a cell phone and takes a photo of the accreditation. All the data goes to the Shin Bet, Israel’s internal intelligence service. As the answer is positive, the first buttery date of the morning appears.
Ron (he withheld his last name) says that he was born in the kibbutz, that he went to live in the United States for a few years, and that his immediate family – wife and two children – survived the terrorist attack. “This was the best place on earth.” , here we raise our children. The terrorists finished everything,” says Ron.

The massacre committed in this kibbutz – which had many Argentines – was carried out by terrorists from Nukbha (elite, in Arabic), a combat unit that belongs to the Izz al-Din al Qassam brigades, the military arm of Hamas. Nukbha fighters have proven experience in combat and hostage taking, and are equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry supplied by Iran and Syria.

The Hamas fedayeen arrived in the early hours of October 7 in pickup trucks and motorcycles. They broke a fence with pipes and wire fences, burned all the cars in their path, canceled the use of the ambulance and killed the head of security. It was the first kibbutz that Hamas attacked in Israel, in a terrorist operation that it planned for months.
In just 20 minutes, Nukbha’s brigade took over the outer perimeter of the kibbutz and for the next 18 hours they carried out a terrorist hunt that even included the kibbutz’s dogs. The Hamas terrorists burned down the houses they could not enter, raped all the women they could capture, killed babies, children and grandparents, and took an unidentified number of hostages and corpses that they will use to negotiate with the Israeli armed forces. .
The terrorists killed dozens of kibbuzins, and their personal belongings remained witnesses of an unexpected tragedy
Inside the houses you can see the remains of destroyed life, while the acidic smell reminds you that systematic crimes against humanity took place there. The terrorists destroyed computers, televisions, cell phones, jewelry and cash. But they left the books and DVDs: in a library, surviving the circumstances, a photo of Tom Hanks in the film The Terminal seemed to swear that life will always give revenge.

Outside the kibbutz houses, simple and hand-painted, the remains of the tragedy refer to all the boys murdered and kidnapped by Hamas. A massacre happened in Nir Oz and those young people were cannon fodder.
In the streets of the kibbutz and in its external gardens, tricycles, bicycles, a car cover that was a hammock, a worn-out soccer ball, an arch with Israeli flags and mountains of toys that miss their classmates were abandoned – forever. adventure. Impossible to explain to them that they will not return.

And that the noise that is heard so close, caused by the missiles launched from Gaza, anticipates a dark time that Hamas prolonged to start a crisis in the Middle East at the request of Iran.
There is no return from hell.
