Israeli mother escaped Hamas terrorists after seeing everything ‘destroyed and covered in blood’

An Israeli mother who evaded capture with her two young children recalled being led by Hamas to Gaza to the sound of blaring gunshots and seeing everything was “destroyed and covered in blood” before she could escape.

Terrorists broke into Avital Aldjem’s home and dragged her out from the closet where she was hidden before forcing her and her two children — Negev, 4, and baby Eshel, just four months — to begin walking with them toward Gaza.

“They took us from house to house, the whole time there were gunshots along the way,” Aldjem told i24news reporter Natasha Raquel Kirtchuk Gutman said in Hebrew.

“Puddles of blood everywhere.”

“They were burning the homes. Cars were on fire. Then they took me and my kids outside and took us to the fence that surrounds the Kibbutz. There was a breach in the fence, and they began to walk us toward Gaza,” she said.

Through tears, the mother recalled the terrorists constantly telling them “Quick, quick,” and gunshots continued to be fired off the entire walk.
