‘Hamas wants death of every Israeli’: Indian influencers tour kibbutz where residents massacred on Oct. 7
A delegation of Muslim and Hindu journalists and social media influencers toured one of the Gaza border kibbutzim where Israelis were massacred during Hamas’s October 7 terror onslaught.
The 13-member delegation was organized by Sharaka, a grassroots organization looking to strengthen the bond between Israel and the Arab and Muslim world.
After the tour of Kibbutz Kfar Aza, where dozens of residents were killed, Indian social media influencer Shefali Vaidya tweets, “Hamas does not want land or concessions. What it wants is the complete destruction of the State of Israel and the death of every Israeli citizen, down to the last one. This is a sober understanding of a chilling fact!”
It was one of the hardest mornings of my life to witness first hand, the destruction of Kibutz Kfar Aza, one of the worst affected Kibutzes in the October 7th attack on Israel by Hamas.
