💔 HEARTBREAKING: The burned bodies of an Israeli mother and a child have been found in one of the Gaza border settlements by Zaka volunteers who work there as part of cleaning up the scenes of Hamas’s October 7 massacre.
Upon entering one of the houses, the charred body of a woman was discovered, and in the attic, they identified the body of a minor, apparently after he fled there trying to escape the terrorists.
The bodies are now being collected and will later be transferred for police and army inspection to the medical laboratories. – JPost

EXCLUSIVE: Non-Public Israeli Satellite Video of the Intact Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza after Rocket Hits Parking Lot – NOT the Hospital (VIDEO) By Jim Hoft
Oct. 18, 2023 1:00 pm – On Tuesday evening a rocket reportedly hit the Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza causing a massive explosion and resulting in the deaths of allegedly several hundred Palestinians.
The Palestinians, Islamic Jihad terror group and Western media immediately blamed Israel for the explosion.
This comes ten days after the largest slaughter of Jews since World War II. Over 1,300 Jews were massacred by Hamas and another 200 Jews were taken hostage back to Gaza on October 7.
The international media immediately blamed Israel for the rocket attack “on the hospital.”
But it now appears the story was fake news.
A rocket did not strike the hospital. It struck a parking lot. It was likely an Islamic Jihad missile that was fired from nearby in the urban area.
And 500 Palestinians did not die in the missile strike.
So after all the drama yesterday it turns out the Gaza hospital wasn’t bombed, the parking lot was, and 500 people didn’t die. Oh and the rocket wasn’t from Israel, it was from a failed rocket that Palestinian terrorists shot at Israel. Absolutely insane. pic.twitter.com/Eet1eExuGx

Mass protests across Arab world after Gaza hospital tragedy i24NEWS
October 18, 2023 at 04:39 AM – As Palestinian authorities blame Israel for the deadly blast at the Al-Ahli hospital, protests spread to Jordan, Turkey, Lebanon and Iran
The blast at the Al-Ahli Al-Mahdi hospital in Gaza that took hundreds of lives has sparked anger across the Middle East and North Africa. Hezbollah declared an “unprecedented day of rage” while demonstrations broke out on Tuesday night in the West Bank as well as Jordan, Turkey, Morocco, Lebanon, Iran, Libya, Yemen and Iraq.
The President of the Palestinian Authority (PA) Mahmoud Abbas accused Israel of the blast and called the incident a “massacre,” while declaring three days of mourning.
Demonstrators across the West Bank clashed with Palestinian police as hundreds flooded the streets of Nablus, Tubas and Jenin in anger over the hospital explosion which in turn became protests against President Abbas. Protesters in Ramallah reportedly shouted pro-Hamas slogans and threw rocks.
Abbas had planned to meet the U.S. president in Jordan on Wednesday for a four-party summit, but the meeting was canceled following the Al-Ahli hospital incident. The Tuesday night protests in the West Bank highlighted the long-standing criticism of Abbas’ perceived coordination with Israel.

IDF: Clear evidence shows Gazan jihadists behind hospital blast i24NEWS
October 18, 2023 at 04:29 AM – ‘Hamas understood it was an Islamic Jihad rocket that had misfired, and decided to launch a global media campaign to hide what really happened’
Hamas realized immediately that the rocket blowing up a hospital in the Gaza Strip was launched by their fellow jihadists, yet decided to mislead the world, Israeli military spokesperson told journalists on Wednesday.
IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari referred to an abundance of evidence, including the recording of a phone conversation between two Gazan terrorists, bearing this out.
“There was no IDF fire by land, sea or air that hit the hospital,” Hagari said. “Our radar system tracked missiles fired by terrorists in Gaza at the time of the explosion and the trajectory analysis of the rockets shows the rockets were fired in close proximity to the hospital.”
“According to our intelligence, Hamas checked the reports, understood it was an Islamic Jihad rocket that had misfired, and decided to launch a global media campaign to hide what really happened,” Hagari said, adding that the Islamist rulers of Gaza “went as far as to inflate the number of casualties.”
Hagari says Hamas “understood with absolute certainty that it was a rocket misfired by Islamic Jihad that damaged the hospital.”
Are Gaza Civilians Considered Innocent? Ezri Tobe
How innocent is the mother of a terrorist who encouraged her child to commit murder and rejoiced when he did so?
Oct 16, 2023, 10:00 PM (GMT+3) – Let’s talk about the civilians in Gaza.
Are they to be considered innocent?
An innocent civilian is a regular person who cares for his family and tries to do good in the world and there’s no reason why they should get hurt.
But a mother of a terrorist who encouraged and educated her son to kill innocent civilians, and expresses how proud she is after he did so.
Is she innocent?
Well of course she didn’t perpetrate the act itself, her son did, but it was she who sent him to do so.
Anyone who refers to that mother as an innocent civilian has a deep moral problem.
How about the family of a terrorist?
Those who express how proud they are of their brother who murdered innocent children in their beds.
Are they an innocent family?
How about the society? The people that handed out sweets after innocent families were wiped out by their friends?
The culture that glorifies terrorists, name streets after them, call newborns in their names, pays monthly salaries to the terrorists’ family and so much more…
Is that society to be considered innocent?
Gallant: Hamas members have 2 options, unconditional surrender or death’
Defense Minister meets Air Force pilots and crew at Nevatim base, says ‘every missile has an address.’
Oct 17, 2023, 3:22 PM (GMT+3) – Defense Minister Yoav Gallant arrived this morning (Tuesday) at the Nevatim Air Force base and spoke to the pilots, aircrew members, and technicians of the ‘Adir’ fighter squadron. The commander of the base, Brigadier General Yotam Sigler, detailed to the minister the pilots’ extensive operational activity in the most recent days of fighting in Gaza.
Gallant said at the end of the visit: “I met the pilots, the navigators, the operators, the aircrews, and the ground crews. We have something to be proud of, the enlistment rate is far greater than 100 percent and the corps carries out its missions very successfully.”
“Our planes reach each and every point, this aircraft has many missions – but each missile has an address. We will reach each and every Hamas member,” he said.
“Hamas members have two options: either die where they are or surrender unconditionally, there is no third option. We will wipe out the Hamas organization and strip it of all its capabilities,” Gallant concluded.
[Ed.: Gallant has a reputation of wokism and stupidity. Why give them choices? If they were to surrender (which, of course they won’t,) does Gallant intend to prosecute them in court, and then give them jail sentences? The enemy must be decimated. No choices.]
“They were burned while tied together”: The gut-wrenching work of identifying victims of the Hamas attack Ariel Oseran
October 17, 2023 at 06:04 AM – “You can see innocent people that were just butchered,” Dr. Chen Kugel, the director of Israel’s National Center of Forensic Medicine told i24NEWS
It has been over a week since the horrific slaughter in the communities surrounding the Gaza Strip, and the dust is still settling. But at Israel’s National Medical Forensic Center, examiners are working around the clock to identify as many of the 1,400 bodies of victims as they can.
It appears to be an impossible task at times, as Dr. Chen Kugel, the director of Israel’s National Center of Forensic Medicine, explained to a gathering of journalists.
“I don’t know if we will be able to take DNA from these samples because they are very charred,” he said. “Some of the victims were not shot as no metal fragments were discovered in their bodies, but they were burned. It’s like a crematorium.”
Hamas Releases First Hostage Video

Catholic Patriarch of Jerusalem Offers to Exchange Himself for Hostage Children Held by Hamas By Paul Serran
Oct. 16, 2023 3:20 pm – With so much war and strife all over the planet, there was never a more appropriate moment for Christianity to show its peaceful face.
Unfortunately, under Globalist Pope Francis, truly Catholic initiatives have become very rare – but it still happens.
It warmed the hearts of Christians all over this planet when news broke that Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Patriarch of Jerusalem, was willing to exchange himself for Israeli children taken hostage by Hamas and held in Gaza.
Pizzaballa made his comment in response to a question during a video conference with journalists in Italy.
Reuters reported:
“‘I am ready for an exchange, anything, if this can lead to freedom, to bring the children home. No problem. There is total willingness on my part’, he said.
‘The first thing to do is to try to win the release of the hostages, otherwise there will be no way of stopping (an escalation). We are willing to help, even me personally’, he said.”

IDF awaits order for ‘very aggressive’ operation that resembles 1948 war By Lilach Shoval
10-15-2023 10:59 – In the IDF, and justifiably so, they talk about the need not to end this war without eliminating the threat, as it is a war that is no less than a matter of our existence and future here in the State of Israel.
Unless there is a very surprising and significant change, the IDF is soon going to embark on a ground operation defined by military sources as “aggressive” and even “very aggressive” – a proper response to those who murdered children.
The decision regarding the timing and nature of the operation will certainly not be disclosed through the media, but the operation will be launched in accordance with operational considerations, the ongoing effort to evacuate the population, humanitarian pressure, the need to carry out the operation from the air, and weather conditions.
In the IDF, and justifiably so, they talk about the need not to end this war without eliminating the threat, as it is a war that is no less than a matter of our existence and future here in the State of Israel, just like in 1948.
‘This is where the killer stood and slaughtered the children’: A haunting visit to a decimated community By Omer Lachmanovitch and Uri Dagon
Israel Hayom editor-in-chief and newsdesk director visit the scene of the Hamas slaughter, seeing firsthand the Holocaust-like aftermath.
10-15-2023 14:19 – On Route 242, at the northern exit from Nir Oz, facing the IDF jeep, a surreal scene unfolds: Thousands of turkeys that fled from the kibbutz’s coops are slowly wandering everywhere – on the road, in the yellow fields, under the eucalyptus trees.
They are looking for food, clucking, gathering in shaded areas. Dozens of them have already been run over on the asphalt. We drive carefully not to harm any of them. But the whole situation is almost absurd. The western Negev, a thriving and prosperous region, is now a disaster zone.
We set out to explore the torched homes of Nir Oz, along the scorched paths of Be’eri, within the sandstorm that still shakes the banners and props that were set up for the nature rave near Re’im, where hundreds of partygoers were slaughtered.
New declassified footage published by the military shows Israeli Air Force combat helicopters striking and shooting at Hamas terrorists infiltrating into Israel on the dark morning of October 7.

Man jumped on Hamas grenade to save his wife
A survivor of the invasion tells how her daughter was saved by her son-in-law’s sacrifice.
Oct 15, 2023, 8:57 AM (GMT+3) – Neta Epstein lived with his partner, Iran Shavit, in Kfar Aza and was murdered while protecting her with his body.
Yael Shavit, Iran’s mother, told about Neta’s heartbreaking act of heroism and the story of her daughter’s survival.
“Neta’s grandmother was murdered this morning,” Yael said sadly. “She was the first to be murdered. His uncle Ofir was the second to be murdered. Neta and Iran heard and knew all this while they are still besieged in the shelter. We were in contact with them the whole time. At 10:30 we received a message from them that the terrorists are outside, breaking the windows and breaking into the apartment.”
“The terrorists managed to open the shelter and threw two grenades. Neta and Iran clung to the wall and hid. After that they threw the third grenade. It rolled in the direction of Iran. Neta immediately jumped on the grenade, so that Iran wouldn’t get hurt, and he even shouted ‘grenade’, while the criminals shot him a bunch of bullets. Iran saw how part of his body landed in the door, and part next to the bed.”
“The terrorists did not jump over the body to see if there was anyone else in the room. They simply decided to confirm their kill and threw another grenade. Luckily, Iran was not hit by it. The grenade ignited a picture that was on the floor, and it started to catch fire. From inside the room, Iran wrote to us: ‘Neta is dead and there is smoke in the room and the picture is on fire.'”

IDF reservist: ‘This is what soldiers really need’
An IDF reservist explains what items citizens can buy to make a tangible difference to combat soldiers in the field.
Oct 15, 2023, 1:53 PM (GMT+3) – Ben Hayton, an IDF reservist, has published a video addressing the public who are preparing donations to support the Israeli forces who have been mobilized since the Hamas invasion.
Most of the donations, he explains, are in the form of sweets or snacks, which are enjoyable but not helpful to soldiers preparing for combat. Instead, he recommends, there are a number of items readily available in stores throughout Israel and online that can improve a soldier in combat.
Paracord and duct tape, both sold at sporting and camping stores such as the Rikushet chain in Israel, help soldiers fasten their gear properly so it does not fall off or move out of position.
A number of readily available medical items, such as Licoplast ointment for minor cuts, small bandages, small prepacked first aid kits, and blister bandages, can be of great help to a soldier whose injuries to not require the attention of his unit medic.
A windlass tourniquet, or CAT, he says, is a vital piece of equipment for everyone to have at home, and the more that can be sent to the IDF’s front lines, the better. The tourniquet can mean the difference between life and death when a soldier is injured and in danger of losing too much blood. Black permanent markers are also needed to mark the time a tourniquet was applied, as well as marking ownership of equipment.
Dehydration, he says, is a serious concern on the front lines. People can donate hydration packs, known colloquially as Camelbacks, and Electro-Rice additive powder to speed up the rehydration process for a soldier who loses too much water.

Leatherman-style folding multitools can be used to clean weapons, preventing deadly jams when a soldiers is under fire.
If someone insists on buying snacks, Hayton concludes, it must be something that can fit into the pocket of a tactical vest. He particularly recommends protein bars as a way for every soldier to carry enough food for a full day on their person.
Gaza Resident: Hamas is blocking the evacuation
A man from Gaza confirms to the IDF’s intelligence services that Hamas troops are preventing civilians from leaving targeted areas.

The man from Gaza, a resident of the Jabaliya in the northern region of the Gaza Strip, tells the IDF officer that Hamas forces are preventing civilians from leaving the areas the IDF has declared would be targeted. According to him, Hamas confiscates the identification and car keys of anyone trying to leave the targeted area.

Minnesota Woman Who Advocated for Palestinian Rights and Protested Against Israeli Actions Killed by Hamas Alongside Husband By Jim Hᴏft
Oct. 14, 2023 7:15 am – In a tragic twist of fate, a Minnesota woman and her husband who had vocally advocated for Palestinian rights and protested against Israeli military actions were killed in a Hamas attack.
Cindy Flash, a 67-year-old originally from St. Paul, Minnesota, had emigrated to Israel decades ago. She married Igal Flash, a 66-year-old Israeli and the son of Holocaust survivors, and they settled in Kfar Aza, a community located just a few miles from the Gaza border.
The couple’s home in Kfar Aza sat right next to the security fence that Hamas militants broke through as they attacked Israel by land, sea, and air.
What makes Cindy’s story particularly poignant is the irony that she, an advocate for Palestinian rights, became a victim of the very group she sought to help.
Cindy was known for her advocacy for Palestinian rights. She would often protest against Israeli military operations in Gaza, standing up for the dignity and humanity of Palestinians, according to CNN.
“Whenever there was a military operation, (she) would always protest,” according to their daughter Keren Flash, 34.
“She was there protesting all the time so they won’t destroy it – so that people will see what’s happening because you don’t treat human beings like that no matter what their religious belief is and what their ethnicity is.”
“They were some of the best people that I have ever known,” she added of her parents. “They were good people. They cared about other people. They fought for other people’s rights and other people’s voices.”
However, on a fateful Saturday, the couple was killed inside a safe room at their home during a large-scale attack by Hamas. Keren Flash received a text message from her mother that read, “they managed to break into the safe room.” That was the last time she heard from them.
After days of agonizing silence and uncertainty about their fate, Keren Flash told CNN that the only sliver of solace she could grasp from the devastating news was that they “died instantly so at least it was quick and relatively painless.”
