(Times of Israel) Rachel and David from Ofakim have described how they survived being held captive for 15 hours in their home by Gaza terrorists who constantly threatened to execute them - in part by giving them coffee and cookies - until police stormed their apartment and freed them. The five gunmen climbed in through a ground-floor bedroom window and took David and Rachel captive. "They had malice, they came to kill," David told Channel 12. They told the couple they were to become "martyrs." Outside the building, their police officer son Evyatar described the layout of the home to counterterrorism forces in preparation for a rescue attempt. One of the terrorists held a hand grenade over Rachel's head, having removed the pin. Rachel said the terrorists were heavily armed, including with a LAW anti-tank missile. She also said she bandaged the hand of one of the injured terrorists, trying to comfort him, and engaged in conversation with the others to keep them preoccupied.2023-10-09 00:00:00Full Article
