Survival Amidst Terror

The podcast recounts harrowing survival stories from individuals in the kibbutz Kfar Aza during a coordinated attack launched by Hamas on October 7th. One account details how a young man risked his life to rescue his sister amid a barrage of rockets, highlighting the immediate danger and chaos they faced. Many individuals found themselves trapped in safe rooms designed to withstand rocket attacks, only to be vulnerable to an intrusive ground assault, leading them to hold door handles to fend off attackers. The anxiety and desperation of those trapped without food or water for extended hours painted a vivid picture of the traumatic experiences endured by families during this crisis.
