An alarming phone recording released by Israel shows a terrorist affiliated with Hamas boasting to his parents about slaughtering Jews. The terrorist claimed to have personally killed ten Jews in the terrifying interaction that has now been made public. Furthermore, he sent pictures of the massacre to them.
The terrorist who is referred to as Mahmoud in the conversation used a phone he stole from a Jewish woman he had killed along with her husband at Mefalsim, a kibbutz close to the Gaza border. He boasted, “Look how many I killed with my own hands! Your son killed Jews!” He emphasised, “I killed 10 with my own hands! Dad, 10 with my own hands!”
Shockingly, the parents appeared to support his actions. He sounded elated and directed them to his WhatsApp messages in an eagerness to showcase his heinous acts to his equally ecstatic family who conveyed their desire to be with him. He claimed, “I am the first to enter under the protection and help of Allah. Hold your head up father.” They asked him to come back but he asserted that he was brought on this earth by his mother for Islam and he can not return to them.
His father continued to respond with, “Allahu Akbar (God is the greatest).” He remarked, “Oh my son, God bless you!” while his mother wished for his safe return. Meanwhile, he declared himself a “hero” and replied defiantly, “There is no going back. It’s either death or victory,” and repeatedly urged his parents to check WhatsApp to view the images of his victims.
“Look how many I killed with my own hands! Your son killed Jews!”

The conflict escalated on 7 October following an unprecedented onslaught on southern Israel by Palestinian Hamas terrorists stationed in the Gaza Strip. Israel declared war on Hamas as a result of the attack and bombed the area in retaliation. Thousands of civilians, both Palestinians and Israelis have lost their lives as well as become wounded since the onset of this conflict.
Over 5,000 people have died in Gaza with women and children making up more than 60% of the dead, according to UN statistics while at least 1,300 were murdered in Israel. In addition, more than 15,000 people have been hurt and 212 of them are being held captive by Hamas.
