Everyone saw what happened to the Elyakims of Kibbutz Nahal Oz – the family that the Hamas terrorists filmed as five members sat, terrified, in their home, the children's father, Noam, shot and bleeding from a leg wound as the terrorists threatened them and ransacked the house.

Now we expose some of those accursed moments that hadn't been released before – moments filmed by the Nazi monster himself.
Shortly before 10:00, Dikla Arava's friends were exposed to a Facebook broadcast sent live from her profile. Visible in the footage are Dikla, her boyfriend Noam Elyakim, and three children: Dikla's son Tomer, 17, and Noam's daughters: Dafna, 15, and Ella, 8.

At the beginning of the broadcast, the terrorists approach Elyakim and ask him to say something to the Israeli public. He says that they're in Nahal Oz at the moment, that Hamas has commandeered their home, and that he has been shot in the leg (as one can see in the broadcast itself).
Then the terrorists instruct the inhabitants of the house to identify themselves and to present ID cards. Noam and Dikla are asked about where they work and whether they work for the Army. Then the Hamas terrorists ask Noam to accompany them to an interior room, apparently in order to gather up the ID cards, and in the footage it is evident that he can hardly walk, bleeding profusely and propped up by two terrorists.
Monstrous cruelty
The ghastly events in the family's home continue until Noam and the terrorists return from the room. Now the terrorists approach Dikla's son Tomer and ask him to accompany them in order to ask the neighbors to open their doors so that their homes, too, can be breached.
Noam and Dikla try to stop them at first, but to no avail. The Hamas terrorists are seen leading Tomer away and accompanying him from door to door in Nahal Oz as Tomer shouts in Hebrew: open up and come out; no ill will befall you. The terrorist who's holding him says so.
They reach one of the kibbutz homes, open fire, and enter. Inside, a father huddles over a mortally injured girl lying in a pool of blood as his wife wails. The terrorists order them to step out of the room and gather in the living room.
They accuse the family of causing the girl's death by not having opened the door the first time. Then one of the terrorists asks them to contact [Prime Minister] Netanyahu and [National Security Minister Itamar] Ben-Gvir and demand that they not bombard Nahal Oz because that will result in the deaths of the families and the children.
Then the terrorist calls out to Tomer and the rampage in Nahal Oz continues. They reach additional houses and pound on the doors, and when no one answers the terrorist shoots at the windows. Each time, they force 17-year-old Tomer to assure the neighbors that nothing will happen to them if they open up. Then they slaughter the families that do his bidding.
Later on, relatives of the family locate a video clip that Hamas released, in which Noam Elyakim is seen marching toward the Gaza Strip supported by two terrorists. Also located on the internet are images of his two daughters, Dafna and Ella, seated on mattresses in the interior of the Gaza Strip.
The bad news arrived a week and a half into the war as the extended family was informed, to its dismay, that Noam, Dikla, and Tomer were murdered on their way to Gaza by the terrorists of Hamas.
