Harrowing footage showing the abduction of five female soldiers from the Nahal Oz base on October 7 will be released today.
The video was taken by body cameras worn by Hamas terrorists that day as they attacked the base near the Gaza border.
The Hostages and Missing Families Forum says the three minutes and 10 seconds of footage is being released at the request of the families, and has been edited to remove some of the most disturbing images, including the multiple murdered bodies.
“The footage reveals the violent, humiliating, and traumatizing treatment the girls endured on the day of their abduction, their eyes filled with raw terror,” the forum says in a statement.
The footage will be released at 6 p.m. in Israel.
Ahead of the release, the forum has distributed a number of new images taken from the footage.
