More than 100 bodies have been found in the Israeli kibbutz Be’eri, as details gradually emerge of the horror that unfolded as Palestinian Hamas militants launched their deadly surprise attack.
Be’eri, a self-sustaining farming community of 1,000 residents near Gaza, was one of first places targeted by militants who breached the border early Saturday morning, and among the hardest hit. Civilians were killed and taken hostage, according to Israeli authorities and videos obtained and authenticated by CNN. Heavily armed militants arrived in Be’eri on motorbikes around 7 a.m.
The IDF acknowledged on Monday that Be’eri was “very badly hit.” “We thought we would need more rooms . We didn’t need all the rooms,” said IDF spokesperson Lt. Col. Richard Hecht. The attack on Be’eri came around the same time as Hamas militants descended upon a music festival, known as Nova, just three miles south, shooting revelers at point-blank range and looting their belongings.
