27 Israeli Children Were Shot and Burned Alive on Oct. 7, Forensic Evidence Shows

(Ynet News) Ariela Ayalon - Israel Police data released on Thursday revealed 27 children between the ages of 0-17 were shot and burned alive on Oct. 7, 2023. The report described the recording of a girl at a kibbutz near the Gaza border who was on a call with the police emergency center while being held by a terrorist. She begged the terrorist to let her go, saying she was just a child and had school the next day. The terrorist shot her to death. Her burnt remains were later located. The evidence was gathered from CCTV cameras, testimonies from hostages and ZAKA volunteers, Hamas terrorists' body cameras, and social media posts. "That children were burned, shot and murdered alongside their parents is a proven fact. Children witnessed their parents being murdered and we found a scene with a pile of bodies from the same family more than once," said Commander Dudi Katz, cyber unit chief of the Israel Police special investigations unit Lahav 433. Katz described a photograph of a baby who was murdered alongside her father who tried to protect his family. Another case was the tragic story of the Taasa family from Netiv HaAsara where the father, Gil, threw himself on a grenade that terrorists had tossed into their home to save his children. In a video, "We identified a child around six or seven years old whose body was burnt, but his face remained intact. His glazed expression indicated that he had been burned alive," Katz recounted.
