It was 6. 30am on October 7th, when fighters from hamas and other groups crossed the southern border from gaza, and inflicted the worst single Mass Killing of israelis, in the nations history. The gunmen from hamas broke through the border fence, rampaging through nearby villages, kibbutzes, military posts, and a music festival. They torched homes, shooting and killing indiscriminately.
