Video: Hamas Used Military-Grade Weapons Against Israeli Civilians
(Media Line-Jerusalem Post) Aaron Poris - Last week the IDF invited the international press to view the weapons used by Hamas against Israeli civilians on Oct. 7. Lt.-Col. Idan Sharon-Kettler, deputy commander of the IDF's enemy equipment collection unit, explained that Hamas was equipped with "vast amounts of weapons, [and] of explosive materials used not against soldiers, but citizens and families in their own houses." Hamas equipment included military-grade weapons like the Shawaz anti-tank explosive which was used to break into protected shelters and safe rooms, and thermobaric grenades, which raise the temperature in a given space to 3,000 degrees Celsius. These grenades were used in houses and civilian cars at the Nova music festival to incinerate everything and everyone. Sharon-Kettler said, "This is [the result of] organized smuggling into Gaza from many different countries. There's a lot of money that goes into this. Someone is funding and planning for a long time, and we see the result - a massacre of civilians."
