WARN THE PEOPLE-WW3

EZEKIEL 33:1-6
1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2  Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
3  If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
4  Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.
5  He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
6  But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.

DANIEL 11:40-45 (WW3 BREAKDOWN)
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south( EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) and the king of the north (RUSSIA AND MUSLIM HORDES OF EZEK 38+39) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.(JORDAN)
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
44 But tidings out of the east(CHINA 2ND WAVE OF WW3) and out of the north(RUSSIA, MUSLIMS WHATS LEFT FROM WAVE 1) shall trouble him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.( 1/3RD OF EARTHS POPULATION)
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

ISAIAH 24:1
1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste,(NUKES USED) and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.(WORLD IMMIGRATION)

GENESIS 16:11-12
11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael;(ARAB/MUSLIM) because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12 And he will be a wild man;(RIOTS-BURNING-MURDEROUUS RAGE) his hand will be against every man,(ISLAM WANTS WORLD DOMINATION) and every man's hand against him;(DEFENDING THEMSELVES) and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.(ARAB/MUSLIMS LIVE WITH ISRAELIS)

ISAIAH 33:1,18-19 Woe to thee that spoilest,(destroys) and thou wast not spoiled;(destroyed) and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil,(destroy) thou shalt be spoiled;(destroyed) and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
18 Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.

JOHN 16:2
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.(ISLAM MURDERS IN THE NAME OF THEIR MOON GOD ALLAH)

ISAIAH 14:12-23
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, (SATAN) son of the morning! (HEBREW MEANS CRESCENT MOON ANGEL-ISLAM OVIOUSLY)(SATAN IS THE GOD OF ISLAM) how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

Ecclesiastes 9:10
10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.

EZEKIEL 31:10-17
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.(HELL).
15Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.
17They also went down into hell with him unto [them that be] slain with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.
18To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

EZEKIEL 32:17-32
17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
19 Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.
20 They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword.
22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.
24 There [is] Elam (IRAN) and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit.
25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of [them that be] slain.
26 There [is] Meshech, Tubal,(RUSSIA) (GERMANY, TURKEY) and all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
29 There [is] Edom,(JORDAN) her kings, and all her princes, which with their might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
30 There [be] the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are] slain with the sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,(RULER) the land of Magog,(RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech (MOSCOW) and Tubal,(TOBOLSK) and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog,(LEADER OF RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal:TOBOLSK)
4 And I (GOD) will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,(GOD FORCES THE RUSSIA-MUSLIMS TO MARCH) and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say,(RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS) I will go up to the land of unwalled villages;(ISRAEL) I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil,(OIL IS IN SPOIL) and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13  Sheba, and Dedan,(SAUDI-ARABIA) and the merchants of Tarshish,(SPAIN) with all the young lions thereof,(ENGLAND,AND ALL ITS ASSOCIATES-CANADA,AUSTRALIA-NEW ZEALAND, USA, AND WESTERN ENGLISH SPEAKING NATIONS) shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14  Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15  And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16  And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.

EZEKIEL 39:11-22
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog (RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS) a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers (EAST OF THE DEAD SEA IN JORDAN VALLEY) on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog (RUSSIAN) and all his multitude:(ARAB/MUSLIM HORDE) and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.(BURIEL SITE OF THE 300 MILLION,RUSSIAN/ARAB/MUSLIMS)
12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.(OF ISRAEL)
13 Yea, all the people of the land (OF ISRAEL) shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I (GOD-JESUS) shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment,(NUCLEAR ATOMIC BOMB EXPERTS) passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it,(WON'T TOUCH IT) till the buriers have buried it (PROPERLY) in the valley of Hamongog.(RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS NEW BURIEL SITE)(EAST OF THE DEAD SEA IN THE JORDAN VALLEY)
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.(OF THE ISRAEL-GOD HATERS)
17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl,(500 MILLION MIGRATING BIRDS THREW ISRAEL EVERY SPRING,FALL) and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.(OF THE RUSSIAN/ARAB/MUSLIM ARMIES)
18  Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19  And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20  Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21  And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22  So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.

REVELATION 19:17-18
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;(AGAINST ALL NATIONS ARMIES THAT COME AGAINST JERUSALEM AND ISRAEL)
18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.

PROOF HALF ON EARTH DIE DURING THE 7 YR TRIBULATION PERIOD (8 BILLION ON EARTH)

REVELATION 6:7-8 (8 BILLION- 2 BILLION = 6 BILLION)
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse:(CHLORES GREEN) and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth,(2 BILLION) to kill with sword,(WEAPONS) and with hunger,(FAMINE) and with death,(INCURABLE DISEASES) and with the beasts of the earth.(ANIMAL TO HUMAN DISEASE).

REVELATION 9:15,18 (6 BILLION - 2 BILLION = 4 BILLION)
15 And the four(DEMONIC WAR) angels were loosed,
18 By these three was the third part of men killed,(2 BILLION) by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.(NUCLEAR ATOMIC BOMBS)

HALF OF EARTHS POPULATION DIE DURING THE 7 YR TRIBULATION.(THESE VERSES ARE JUDGEMENT SCRIPTURES NOT RAPTURE SCRIPTURES)

LUKE 17:34-37 (8 TOTAL BILLION - 4 BILLION DEAD IN TRIB = 4 BILLION TO JESUS KINGDOM) (HALF DIE DURING THE 7 YR TRIBULATION PERIOD JUST LIKE THE BIBLE SAYS)(GOD DOES NOT LIE)(AND NOTICE MOST DIE IN WAR AND DISEASES-NOT COMETS-ASTEROIDS-QUAKES OR TSUNAMIS)
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other shall be left.(half earths population 4 billion die in the 7 yr trib)
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.(Christians have new bodies,this is the people against Jerusalem during the 7 yr treaty)(Christians bodies are not being eaten by the birds).THESE ARE JUDGEMENT SCRIPTURES-NOT RAPTURE SCRIPTURES.BECAUSE NOT HALF OF PEOPLE ON EARTH ARE CHRISTIANS.AND THE CONTEXT IN LUKE 17 IS THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION OR 7 YR TREATY PERIOD.WHICH IS JUDGEMENT ON THE EARTH.NOT 50% RAPTURED TO HEAVEN.

MATTHEW 24:37-42 (THESE ARE JUDGEMENT SCRIPTURES-SURE NOT RAPTURE SCRIPTURES)(50% OF EARTHS POPULATION DIE)
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.(ON EARTH)
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.(ON EARTH)
42 Watch therefore:(FOR THE LAST DAYS SIGNS HAPPENING) for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

ZECHARIAH 14:12-13
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet,(DISOLVED FROM ATOMIC BOMB) and their eyes shall consume away in their holes,(DISOLVED FROM ATOMIC BOMB) and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.(DISOLVED FROM ATOMIC BOMB)(BECAUSE NUKES HAVE BEEN USED ON ISRAELS ENEMIES)(GOD PROTECTS ISRAEL AND ALWAYS WILL)
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.(1/2-3 BILLION DIE IN WW3)(THIS IS AN ATOMIC BOMB EFFECT)

EZEKIEL 32:18-29 (NOTICE ALL THE COUNTRIES LAND PROMISED ISRAEL BY GOD ARE IN THE JORDAN VALLEY BURIED)
18 “Son of man, wail for the multitudes of Egypt, and consign her and the daughters of the mighty nations to the depths of the earth with those who descend to the Pit:
19 Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be placed with the uncircumcised! (IN HELL FIRES)
20 They will fall among those slain by the sword. The sword is appointed! Let them drag her away along with all her multitudes.
21 Mighty chiefs will speak from the midst of Sheol about Egypt and her allies: ‘They have come down and lie with the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.’
22 Assyria (SYRIA) is there with her whole company; her graves are all around her. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword.
23 Her graves are set in the depths of the Pit, and her company is all around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword—those who once spread terror in the land of the living.
24 Elam (IRAN) is there with all her multitudes around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword—those who went down uncircumcised to the earth below, who once spread their terror in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit.
25 Among the slain they prepare a resting place for Elam with all her hordes, with her graves all around her. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, although their terror was once spread in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit. They are placed among the slain.
26 Meshech and Tubal (RUSSIA) are there with all their multitudes, with their graves all around them. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, because they spread their terror in the land of the living.
27 They do not lie down with the fallen warriors of old, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were placed under their heads, whose shields rested on their bones, although the terror of the mighty was once in the land of the living.
28 But you too will be shattered and lie down among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.
29 Edom (JORDAN) is there, and all her kings and princes, who despite their might are laid among those slain by the sword. They lie down with the uncircumcised, with those who descend to the Pit.THIS IS RIGHT FROM 93:

SECOND ANGEL: MIDDLE EAST
Then I saw that the second angel had a sickle in his hand, such as is used in harvesting.The second angel said: "Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the way to Iran."I saw those countries in a few split seconds."All of Turkey and those [inaudible] countries that have refused me and refused my message of love shall hate each other and kill one another."I saw the angel raise the sickle and come down on all the Middle East countries. I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor - full of blood. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words:"Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come." The angel said, "The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God."I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said: "This is the final judgment. My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries."The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.

PSALMS 83:1-8 (GODS LAND PROMISED TO ISRAEL)
1 O God, do not remain silent;do not turn a deaf ear,do not stand aloof, O God.
2 See how your enemies growl,  how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they (ARAB,MUSLIMS) conspire against your people;they plot against those you cherish.(ISRAELIS)
4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
5 With one mind they plot together;(TREATIES) they form an alliance against you—
6 the tents of Edom (JORDAN)  and the Ishmaelites, (EGYPTIAN ARABS SO CALLED PALESTIANS) of Moab (JORDAN) and the Hagrites,(EGYPT)
7 Byblos,(HEZBOLLOH) Ammon (JORDAN) and Amalek,(SYRIAN ARABS IN THE SINAI) Philistia,(ARABS) with the people of Tyre (LEBANON).
8 Even Assyria (SYRIA) has joined them to reinforce Lot’s descendants.

GENESIS 6:11-13
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.(WORLD TERRORISM,MURDERS)(HAMAS IN HEBREW IS VIOLENCE)
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence (TERRORISM)(HAMAS) through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

1 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
1-PROMISCUOUS SEX AMOUNG EACH OTHER.
ROMANS 1:24
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: (THE 60S FREE SEX)
2 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
2-SODOMITES - MEN LUSTING MEN, AND WOMEN LUSTING AFTER WOMEN.
ROMANS 1:26-27
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
3 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
3-A DEPRAVED MIND-ANY SIN GOES.
ROMANS 1:28-31
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO THESE 3 DEPRAVED ABOMINATION SINS?
OH OH NOAHS DAY. WHAT HAPPENED IN NOAHS DAY. THE WHOLE WORLD WAS JUDGED BY WATER.
GENESIS 6:7,17
7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
GENESIS 7:4
4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
GENESIS 8:16
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
WELL THE SODOMITES PICKED THE RIGHT SIGN OF A RAINBOW FOR JUDGEMENT. THE SODOMITES TRYED TO STEAL GODS SIGN THAT THE WHOLE EARTH WILL NEVER DIE FROM FLOOD WATERS AGAIN. BUT THE JUDGEMENT THIS TIME IS GOING TO BE BY FIRE.NOT WATER.
2 PETER 3:7
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

EZIKIEL 38:12-13
13 Sheba, and Dedan,(SAUDIA ARABIA) and the merchants of Tarshish,(ENGLAND) with all the young lions thereof,(USA,CANADA,AUSTRALIA,NEW ZEALAND,EU,ENGLAND,ENGLISH SPEAKING shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil? (AGAINST ISRAEL)
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, (RUSSIA AND HER MUSLIMS HORDES)Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?

ISRAEL SATAN COMES AGAINST

1 CHRONICLES 21:1
1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

GENESIS 12:1-3
1  Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I (GOD) will shew thee:
2  And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

Helicopter crash that killed Iran’s president caused by weather, final report says-Report blames ‘sudden emergence of a thick mass of dense and rising fog’ for crash that killed President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, and five others-By AFP Today, 11:30 pm-SEP 1,24

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s final investigation into the May helicopter crash that killed president Ebrahim Raisi has found it was caused by bad weather, the body investigating the case said Sunday.The helicopter carrying 63-year-old Raisi and his entourage came down on a fog-shrouded mountainside in northern Iran, killing the president and seven others, and triggering snap elections.The main cause of the helicopter crash was the “complex climatic and atmospheric conditions of the region in the spring,” the special board investigating the dimensions and causes of the helicopter accident said, according to state broadcaster IRIB.The report added that “the sudden emergence of a thick mass of dense and rising fog” caused the helicopter’s collision into the mountain.Iran’s army in May similarly said it had found no evidence of criminal activity in the crash that also killed Raisi’s foreign minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian.In August, the Fars news agency cited the main causes of the May 19 crash as bad weather conditions and the helicopter’s inability to ascend with two extra passengers against security protocols.But the Iranian armed forces were quick to reject the finding saying, “What is mentioned on Fars news about the presence of two people in the helicopter against the security protocols… is completely false.”

Autopsy finds 6 hostages shot multiple times at close range in last 48-72 hours-Findings indicate captives were executed by Hamas guards as IDF troops closed in on Rafah tunnel complex; IDF chief visits site where bodies were found-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 9:25 pm-SEP 1,24

The six dead hostages recovered from the Gaza Strip over the weekend were killed 48 to 72 hours before their autopsy, meaning between Thursday and Friday morning, the Health Ministry said Sunday.The ministry added that an examination carried out by Abu Kabir Forensic Institute found that all six hostages were shot multiple times from close range, indicating they were executed.The IDF had said that Hamas terrorists murdered the hostages relatively shortly before troops located their bodies on Saturday afternoon in a tunnel in Rafah.The hostages brought back were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat, and Almog Sarusi.On Sunday morning, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen Herzi Halevi visited the site where the bodies were found and held an assessment at the scene.Halevi was joined by the head of the IDF Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, and hostage point-man Maj. Gen. (res.) Nitzan Alon.Channel 12 reported that security officials fear that Hamas executed the six hostages due to the terror group’s concerns that a hostage who was rescued alive from a nearby tunnel last week would divulge details about where the other captives were being held.Hostage Farhan al-Qadi, 52, was safely rescued by IDF special forces from Hamas captivity in one of the terror group’s tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip. He was found alone after his captives fled.IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said earlier that the six were “brutally murdered” by Hamas shortly before troops arrived.“According to an initial assessment… they were brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists a short while before we reached them. They were abducted alive on the morning of October 7 by the Hamas terror group,” Hagari said in a press conference.“Their bodies were found during the fighting in Rafah, in a tunnel, about a kilometer away from the tunnel from which we rescued Farhan al-Qadi a few days ago,” he said.The IDF said that it did not have the exact location of the hostages but had indications of a general area where the six could be held, and was therefore operating carefully in the area.“Since Farhan was found, troops were given an emphasis on operating carefully even more than usual, because of the understanding that additional hostages might be in the area. We did not have information on the exact location of the hostages,” Hagari said.Troops began to search a tunnel complex, some 20 meters underground, on Saturday and found the hostages, dead, in the afternoon. Their bodies were extracted from Gaza overnight and brought to Israel for identification.Mass demonstrations were held throughout Israel on Sunday after news came out that the bodies were found, with protesters demanding the government reach a deal for the release of hostages.Arnon Bar-David, chairman of the Histadrut labor union, announced a general strike to be held Monday to pressure the government to reach a deal.It is believed that 97 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 33 confirmed dead by the IDFHamas released 105 civilians during a weeklong truce in late November, and four hostages were released before that. Eight hostages have been rescued by troops alive, and the bodies of 37 hostages have also been recovered, including three mistakenly killed by the military as they tried to escape their captors.Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014

Biden says he's 'devastated and outraged'Bodies of 6 hostages, murdered by Hamas just days ago, found in Rafah – IDF-Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat, Almog Sarusi discovered in Gaza tunnel; families forum urges protests; autopsy finds all 6 had gunshot wounds-By Emanuel Fabian and ToI Staff Today, 9:01 am-SEP 1,24

The bodies of six hostages abducted alive by Hamas on October 7 were recovered from a tunnel in southern Gaza’s Rafah overnight, shortly after they were murdered by terrorists, the Israel Defense Forces announced Sunday.The hostages were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23, Eden Yerushalmi, 24, Ori Danino, 25, Alex Lobanov, 32, Carmel Gat, 40, and Almog Sarusi, 27.Goldberg-Polin, Yerushalmi, Lobanov, Sarusi and Danino (an off-duty noncommissioned officer) were abducted from the Nova music festival near Kibbutz Re’im, while Gat was taken from Kibbutz Be’eri.Their bodies were found with multiple gunshot wounds, Israel’s Health Ministry said, citing an examination carried out by Abu Kabir Forensic Institute.The ministry said that the hostages were murdered between 48 and 72 hours before their autopsy, meaning between Thursday and Friday morning.IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said the six were “brutally murdered” by Hamas shortly before troops arrived — possibly only a day or two before they were found.“According to an initial assessment… they were brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists a short while before we reached them. They were abducted alive on the morning of October 7 by the Hamas terror group,” Hagari said in a press conference.“Their bodies were found during the fighting in Rafah, in a tunnel, about a kilometer away from the tunnel from which we rescued Farhan al-Qadi a few days ago,” he said.The IDF said that it did not have the exact location of the hostages but had indications of a general area where the six could be held, and was therefore operating carefully in the area.“Since Farhan was found, troops were given an emphasis on operating carefully even more than usual, because of the understanding that additional hostages may be in the area. We did not have information on the exact location of the hostages,” Hagari said.Troops began to search a tunnel complex, some 20 meters underground, on Saturday and found the hostages, dead, in the afternoon. Their bodies were extracted from Gaza overnight and brought toIsrael for identification.The IDF said there were no clashes with Hamas terrorists inside the tunnel, and the guards who likely murdered the six had fled the area. However, troops battled terror operatives aboveground in the area where the tunnel was located.US President Joe Biden said he was “devastated and outraged” by the deaths of the hostages, in particular that of dual Israeli-US citizen Goldberg-Polin, whose parents, Jon and Rachel, he and other Americans had kept in their prayers.“I have worked tirelessly to bring their beloved Hersh safely to them and am heartbroken by the news of his death,” Biden said.“It is as tragic as it is reprehensible. Make no mistake, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes. And we will keep working around the clock for a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages,” he said.US vice president and presidential nominee Kamala Harris expressed her condolences to the Goldberg-Polin family, and reiterated that Hamas now has “even more American blood on its hands.”“Doug and my prayers are with Jon Polin and Rachel Goldberg-Polin, Hersh’s parents, and with everyone who knew and loved Hersh,” Harris said in a statement.“When I met with Jon and Rachel earlier this year, I told them: You are not alone. That remains true as they mourn this terrible loss,” she said. “Hamas is an evil terrorist organization. With these murders, Hamas has even more American blood on its hands.”Herzog: Heart of the entire nation is crushed-In a brief statement, Goldberg-Polin’s family said that they had “broken hearts.”“The Goldberg-Polin family is devastated to announce the death of their beloved son and brother, Hersh,” they said in an announcement. “The family thanks you all for your love and support and asks for privacy at this time.”Gat’s cousin Gil Dickmann, a prominent voice among those campaigning for the release of the hostages, called on the public to take to the streets.“The nightmare came true. It was in our hands. Get out of your homes to stop the next murder,” he wrote on X.President Isaac Herzog said in a statement that the “heart of an entire nation is crushed into pieces” with the announcement of the deaths of the hostages.“In the name of the entire State of Israel, I hold their families in my heart and ask forgiveness. Forgiveness for not being able to return your loved ones home safely,” he said.Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said: “During this painful and difficult time, my thoughts and my heart are with the families of the hostages who were killed.”There was no public comment from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.The announcement of the return of the bodies, which came after other bodies of captives were recently returned from the Strip, drew immediate furious reactions against Netanyahu and his government, who have been accused of failing to secure a deal to return the hostages and thus abandoning them to their deaths.Hostage families’ forum denounces PM, urges protests-The Hostages and Missing Families Forum, a prominent activist group representing many relatives of abductees held in Gaza, announced major protests Sunday, as the crisis neared its 12th month.The organization said a protest was to be held in Jerusalem at 4 p.m. while the cabinet meets, followed by a large 7 p.m. demonstration in Tel Aviv outside the Kirya defense headquarters.“If it weren’t for the saboteurs, the excuses, and the spin, the hostages whose deaths we learned of this morning would probably be alive,” the forum said in a post on X.“Netanyahu: Enough with the excuses. Enough with the spin. Enough with the abandonment. The time has come to bring our hostages home — those living for rehabilitation and the fallen and murdered for burial in their land,” the forum wrote.The announcement of the hostages’ deaths came just days after Netanyahu reportedly told Gallant that he was prioritizing his stance of maintaining Israeli troops in the Philadelphi Corridor over saving the lives of the remaining hostages in Gaza.The stance was shared during a heated security cabinet meeting in which the premier had the top ministerial body vote to approve a series of maps drawn up by the IDF, which showed how Israel aims to keep its troops deployed in the corridor during the first phase of the hostage-ceasefire being negotiated.“You are deciding to stay in the Philadelphi Corridor. Is this logical to you? There are living [hostages] there!” Gallant exclaimed.Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer replied, “The prime minister can do as he likes.”Gallant responded, “The prime minister can indeed make all the decisions, and he can also decide to kill all the hostages.”IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi and Mossad chief David Barnea also raised concerns about the prime minister’s strategy, with the military chief saying that the defense establishment would not have an issue with a temporary withdrawal during a ceasefire.It is believed that 97 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 now remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 33 confirmed dead by the IDF.Hamas released 105 civilians during a weeklong truce in late November, and four hostages were released before that. Eight hostages have been rescued by troops alive, and the bodies of 37 hostages have also been recovered, including three mistakenly killed by the military as they tried to escape their captors.Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014.On July 25, the IDF announced the recovery of the bodies of five captives: Ravid Katz, 51, Oren Goldin, 33, Maya Goren, 56, Sgt. Kiril Brodski, 19, and Staff Sgt. Tomer Yaakov Ahimas, 20.On August 20, the military recovered the remains of six others: Alex Dancyg, 75, Yagev Buchshtav, 35, Chaim Peri, 79, Yoram Metzger, 80, Nadav Popplewell, 51, and Avraham Munder, 78.And on Wednesday, the army said it had returned the body of an Israeli soldier who was killed and abducted by Hamas on October 7. At the request of the family, that hostage’s name was not immediately permitted for publication.On Tuesday, hostage al-Qadi was rescued alive from the Strip. After returning home, he said he had told Netanyahu it was time to “put an end” to the saga of the hostages, urging the public to “do everything — demonstrations, everything — to get the people home.”Jacob Magid contributed to this report.

IDF finds bodies in Gaza that may be of hostages; identification process underway-Army calls on public not to spread rumors, as Biden reacts and urges patience until process is complete; hostage families encourage major protests, saying ‘country will tremble’ By Emanuel Fabian-and ToI Staff Today, 5:00 am-SEP 1,24

The Israel Defense Forces said Saturday night that troops had located several bodies in the Gaza Strip which could be the remains of Israeli hostages, but cautioned that the bodies had yet to be identified.The announcement, which came after other bodies of captives were recently returned from the Strip, drew immediate furious reactions against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government, who have been accused of failing to secure a deal to return the hostages and thus abandoning them to their deaths.“At this stage, the forces are still operating in the area and carrying out a process to extract and identify the bodies, which will last several hours,” the military said Saturday night.The military called on the public not to spread unverified rumors.US President Joe Biden reacted as he exited a church in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, noting there was uncertainty about the exact number of bodies found and “a lot of speculation who they are,” and adding that the matter should wait until they are identified and “their families are notified.”The Hostages and Missing Families Forum, a prominent activist group representing many relatives of abductees held in Gaza, said it planned to announce plans for major protests Sunday, as the crisis neared its 12th month.“Netanyahu abandoned the hostages,’ the group said. “It is now a fact. Starting tomorrow, the country will tremble. We call on the public to prepare. The country will grind to a halt. The abandonment is over.” It promised more details in the morning.Opposition Leader Yair Lapid also responded, accusing Netanyahu of focusing on insignificant issues as “our sons and daughters are being abandoned and dying in captivity.”“Not the Philadelphi Corridor nor the polio vaccines [in Gaza] interest him — just the coalition and preserving [the partnership with Bezalel] Smotrich and [Itamar] Ben Gvir,” he charged. “In the process, he is crushing the families and the nation of Israel.”The developments came days after the security cabinet voted to back Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s demand to not withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor in any deal, and as a polio vaccination drive was beginning in the Gaza Strip.It is believed that 103 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of 33 confirmed dead by the IDF. Hamas released 105 civilians during a weeklong truce in late November, and four hostages were released before that.Eight hostages have been rescued by troops alive, and the bodies of 31 hostages have also been recovered, including three mistakenly killed by the military as they tried to escape their captors.Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014.If the newly found remains are confirmed to be of hostages, it would be added to 12 bodies of hostages retrieved from Gaza in the past few weeks.On July 25, the IDF announced the return of five dead captives: Ravid Katz, 51, Oren Goldin, 33, Maya Goren, 56, Sgt. Kiril Brodski, 19, and Staff Sgt. Tomer Yaakov Ahimas, 20.On August 20, the military recovered the remains of six others: Alex Dancyg, 75, Yagev Buchshtav, 35, Chaim Peri, 79, Yoram Metzger, 80, Nadav Popplewell, 51, and Avraham Munder, 78.And on Wednesday, the army said it had returned the body of an Israeli soldier who was killed and abducted by Hamas on October 7. At the request of the family, that hostage’s name was not immediately permitted for publication.On Tuesday, hostage Farhan al-Qadi was rescued alive from the Strip. After returning home, he said he had told Netanyahu it was time to “put an end” to the saga of the hostages, urging the public to “do everything — demonstrations, everything — to get the people home.”

Ben Gvir blames deadly West Bank shooting on Gallant for easing Palestinians’ travel-Israelis’ ‘right to life trumps PA residents’ freedom of movement,’ says minister; Smotrich urges preemptive military operation in southern West Bank-By ToI Staff Today, 4:50 pm-SEP 1,24

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir blamed the shooting that killed three police officers in the West Bank Sunday morning on Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s “orders to open roadblocks for the Palestinians.”In a statement from the scene of the shooting, near the Palestinian city of Tarqumiyah, the far-right minister reiterated his position that Israelis’ “right to life trumps Palestinian Authority residents’ freedom of movement.” Ben Gvir said that when Gallant tries to ease Palestinian travel, “the result is the murder of Jews.”Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, speaking later from the same area, also called on the army “to bring back the roadblocks and break free of the ‘conception,'” a word the right wing has used to denote the security establishment’s standard practices, which they blame for the failures that led to the October 7 attack.The minister also urged the expansion of ongoing IDF operations in the northern West Bank to the territory’s south, where Sunday’s shooting took place.According to Smotrich, Israel has a growing amount of signal intelligence indicating a similar attack to the Hamas assault from Gaza was being planned for central Israel and the southern West Bank was imminent.“We need to do now what we didn’t do on that awful night,” he said. “Begin a preemptive strike and deal terrorism a forceful blow.”After October 7 — when thousands of Hamas-led terrorists stormed southern Israel to kill nearly 1,200 people and take 251 hostages, sparking the war in Gaza — the IDF increased its roadblocks throughout the West Bank, all but putting Palestinians in the area on lockdown.The military began loosening its restrictions in March, which coincided with the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, eliciting an angry response from right-wing ministers.During the Gaza war, troops have arrested some 5,000 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 2,000 affiliated with Hamas.According to the Palestinian Authority health ministry, more than 670 West Bank Palestinians have been killed in that time. The IDF says the vast majority of them were gunmen killed in exchanges of fire, rioters who clashed with troops or terrorists carrying out attacks.During the same period, 29 people, including Israeli security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank. Another six members of the security forces were killed in clashes with terror operatives in the West Bank.

Hersh, Carmel, Alex, Eden, Or, Almog: The 6 hostages murdered by Hamas just days ago-Goldberg-Polin’s family has ‘broken hearts’; Gat did yoga with hostage children; Lobanov never met his child; Yerushalmi’s sisters heard her being kidnapped; Danino turned car around to rescue others; Sarusi’s girlfriend was also murdered-By ToI Staff Today, 10:10 am-SEP 1,24

The bodies of six hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 were recovered overnight from a tunnel in southern Gaza’s Rafah, shortly after they were murdered by terrorists, the Israel Defense Forces announced Sunday.All six had been kidnapped alive to the Strip.The hostages were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23, Eden Yerushalmi, 24, Ori Danino, 25, Alex Lobanov, 32, Carmel Gat, 40, and Almog Sarusi, 27.Goldberg-Polin, Yerushalmi, Lobanov, Sarusi and Danino (an off-duty noncommissioned officer) were abducted from the Nova music festival near Kibbutz Re’im.Gat was taken from Kibbutz Be’eri.Hersh Goldberg-Polin-The night before 23-year-old Israeli-US citizen Hersh Goldberg-Polin was taken hostage by Hamas terrorists at the Supernova desert rave, he ate dinner with his family and then left at 11 p.m. to go camping.His mother, Rachel Goldberg, last heard from Hersh early in the morning on October 7, when her son sent two WhatsApp messages, one telling his parents he loved them, the other saying, “I’m sorry.”After speaking to several of Hersh’s close friends, they were able to figure out that Hersh and his best friend, Aner Shapira, went to the rave.The two were last seen at a crowded field shelter, filled with people who tried to escape from the Hamas attack on the party on the morning of October 7.Goldberg-Polin’s arm was blown off from the elbow as Hamas terrorists lobbed grenades into the shelter. Shapira threw at least half a dozen grenades back out of the shelter before he was killed.Goldberg-Polin was seen alive in a video released by terrorists in April.His parents had campaigned prominently for his release, frequently meeting with US President Joe Biden and other officials.In a brief statement, Goldberg-Polin’s family said that they had “broken hearts.”Carmel Gat-Carmel Gat, 40, an occupational therapist from Tel Aviv, was visiting her parents in Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7 when Hamas terrorists attacked, killing her mother, Kinneret. Gat was taken captive, as was her brother Alon, sister-in-law Yarden Roman-Gat, and niece Geffen, who were also visiting.Alon and his three-year-old daughter, Geffen, were able to escape their captors on October 7 and remained free. His wife Yarden, 36, also initially escaped but was recaptured. She was held hostage in Gaza and released on November 29 during a temporary ceasefire.With the release of dozens of hostages, the family received word that Carmel was alive and had been kept captive with some children and did yoga once a day with them.Alex Lobanov-Alex Lobanov, 32, was the head barman at the Nova party.At the time of the attack, his wife Michal was five months pregnant. She has since given birth. The couple also has a two-year-old.The young family lives in Ashkelon, where Alex cared for his parents, who both have physical disabilities.“He’s the guy who worries about everyone else,” wrote a friend.Eden Yerushalmi-Eden Yerushalmi, 24, a bartender from Tel Aviv, had gone to the Nova party with a group of friends.When the terrorists attacked the rave, she called her older sister, Shani, who stayed on the phone with her for hours, along with their younger sister, May.They were on the line with Yerushalmi when she hid in a car with friends who had been murdered, pretending to be dead. They stayed on the line when she went to hide in thorny bushes. They reminded her to breathe.For four hours, the three sisters were on the phone together, until they heard gunshots and Yerushalmi cried, “Shani, they caught me!” After that, the phone went dead.Or Danino-Master Sgt. Ori Danino, 25, an off-duty noncommissioned officer who attended the Nova rave, initially escaped the attack but went back to try and save others.Danino and a friend left the party in separate vehicles, filling the cars with as many people as possible to help them escape the Hamas killing spree.At one point, Danino asked his friend for the phone number of people they had just met at the party, telling him that he was going to go back to rescue them — siblings Itay Regev and Maya Regev, and Omer Shem-Tov.That was the last time Danino’s friend heard from him.Danino is from an ultra-Orthodox family in Jerusalem. He was engaged to be married to Liel.His brother said on Sunday: “I’m sorry I couldn’t do everything. ”Danino served as a signals officer in the Paratroopers Brigade’s 202nd Battalion.Almog Sarusi-Almog Sarusi, 27, was at the Nova party with his girlfriend, Shahar Gindi, a psychology student at Ariel University. Shahar’s body was later found.According to the Kan public broadcaster, Sarusi had stayed to try and help Shahar after she was injured, at which point he was kidnapped.He loved to travel round the country with his guitar. “A guy full of life and light,” the outlet said.

Biden, Harris call parents of slain American hostage, as Western leaders express horror-Diplomats from some 30 countries attend vigil held by hostage families after six captives murdered by Hamas in Gaza; international community urges ceasefire-By ToI Staff and Agencies Today, 10:06 pm-SEP 1,24

US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday spoke with the parents of murdered American-Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin, a White House official said, as Western leaders expressed horror at the killing of six of the hostages by HamasThe hostages survived almost 11 months of captivity, following their abduction from Israel on October 7, when thousands of Hamas-led terrorists invaded southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages, starting the ongoing war.The White House did not release any details of the conversation with Rachel Goldberg-Polin and Jon Polin, who had been some of the most high profile international campaigners to secure the release of their son and the other hostages.Harris also phoned them.“Doug and I just spoke to Jon and Rachel, Hersh Goldberg-Polin’s parents, to express our condolences following the brutal murder of their son by Hamas terrorists. My heart breaks for their pain and anguish,” Harris posted on X.“I told them: As they mourn this terrible loss, they are not alone. Our nation mourns with them,” the Democratic candidate added.Meanwhile Republican candidate, former president Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that “The Hostage Crisis in Israel is only taking place because Comrade Kamala Harris is weak and ineffective, and has no idea what she’s doing.“I look forward to seeing her at the Debate!” he adds. “THE OCTOBER 7th ISRAELI CRISIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED IF I WERE PRESIDENT!”Biden was one of many Western leaders on Sunday who said they were “devastated,” “heartbroken,” and “completely shocked” at the Hamas terror group’s murder of the six Israeli hostages, all of whom coupled their condemnations with calls for a hostage-ceasefire deal.Diplomats from some 30 countries, including Britain, Germany, Austria, the United States, and India, attended a vigil on Sunday at the Hostages and Missing Families Forum headquarters in Tel Aviv.At the vigil, US Ambassador Jack Lew said the murder of Goldberg-Polin “is not something we take lightly,” saying he wanted to share “our heartfelt condolences” for all the hostages’ families, “but also our outrage.”Foreign diplomats representing some 30 nations light candles at a vigil for six hostages whose bodies the IDF said it recovered over the weekend shortly after they were murdered by Hamas, at the Hostages Families Forum headquarters in Tel Aviv. pic.twitter.com/x3qfwMHLY1— Noam Lehmann (@insomniacalpaca) September 1, 2024-Washington, “from the president on down,” is working toward a hostages-for-ceasefire deal, said Lew, adding, “For weeks, we’ve been saying that time is of the essence. Last night, we saw we’re already in overtime.”Earlier, Biden said in a statement that he was “devastated and outraged” over the American citizen’s killing, and extended his condolences to the slain hostage’s parents, noting that he has “gotten to know” the couple over the last year.“I admire them and grieve with them more deeply than words can express,” the president said.“Make no mistake, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes. And we will keep working around the clock for a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages,” he added.I've worked tirelessly to bring Hersh home, and Jill and I could not be more heartbroken by the news of his death.It is tragic and reprehensible.Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes. And we'll continue working towards a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages. pic.twitter.com/SKL99gGjOP— President Biden (@POTUS) September 1, 2024-UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer wrote on X that he was “completely shocked at the horrific and senseless killing of six hostages in Gaza by Hamas,” calling on the terror group to release all its captives and saying “a ceasefire deal must be agreed to by all sides immediately to end the suffering.”The European Union’s top diplomat Josep Borrell also took to the social network on Sunday, saying he was “horrified at the murder of 6 Israeli hostages of Hamas. These young innocent men [and] women should have long been brought to safety and to their loved ones.“We stand with all the hostages” he continued, and added, “We need a ceasefire to end this tragedy & bring all hostages home.”UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on X on Sunday: “I will never forget my meeting last October with the parents of Hersh Goldberg-Polin and other hostage families. Today’s tragic news is a devastating reminder of the need for the unconditional release of all hostages and an end to the nightmare of war in Gaza.” The statement did not mention Hamas.Israel and the terror group have conducted on-and-off negotiations, through intermediaries, for months to arrive at a deal exchanging a hostage release for a ceasefire and the release of Palestinian security prisoners. Both sides said they agreed to a framework presented by the US in May, but subsequent negotiations failed to reach a deal.Harris, who is also her party’s nominee for president in the upcoming election, said in a statement on Saturday that Hamas “must be eliminated” and cannot be allowed to control Gaza.”“Hamas is an evil terrorist organization. With these murders, Hamas has even more American blood on its hands. I strongly condemn Hamas’ continued brutality, and so must the entire world,” she said.Harris extended her condolences to Goldberg-Polin’s family, saying, “When I met with Jon and Rachel earlier this year, I told them: You are not alone. That remains true, as they mourn this terrible loss.“As is said in the Jewish tradition, may Hersh’s memory be a blessing,” she added.Hamas continues to hold seven American citizens in Gaza, including three who are confirmed dead.Axios reported Sunday morning that White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan was expected to meet virtually with the families of American hostages later in the day.It is believed that 97 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 33 confirmed dead by the IDF.Hamas released 105 civilians during a weeklong truce in late November, and four hostages were released before that. Eight hostages have been rescued by troops alive, and the bodies of 37 hostages have also been recovered, including three mistakenly killed by the military as they tried to escape their captors.Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 40,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though the toll cannot be verified and does not differentiate between civilians and fighters. Israel says it has killed some 17,000 combatants in battle and another 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.Israel has said it seeks to minimize civilian fatalities and stresses that Hamas uses Gaza’s civilians as human shields, fighting from civilian areas including homes, hospitals, schools, and mosques.Jacob Magid contributed to this report

Policeman killed in West Bank shooting was father of officer killed on Oct. 7-First. Sgt. Roni Shakuri’s brother-in-law says bereaved father had just begun smiling again after recent sailing trip; daughter Mor fell in battle at Sderot police station-By ToI Staff Today, 6:07 pm-SEP 1,24

First Sgt. Roni Shakuri, one of the three police officers killed in a terrorist attack in the West Bank on Sunday, was the father of First Sgt. Mor Shakuri, a police officer killed fighting terrorists at the Sderot police station on October 7.The elder Shakuri, 61, was shot by terrorists near the Palestinian city of Tarqumiyah on Sunday morning alongside officers Ch. Insp. Arik Ben Eliyahu, 37, and Command Sgt. Maj. Hadas Branch, 53. The Palestinian gunman fled the scene and was later killed by Israeli forces in a firefight in Hebron.A Sderot resident, Shakuri is survived by his wife Ayala, daughter Sapir, and granddaughter.His daughter Mor was 29 years old when Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel on October 7, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 251.Oren Ohana, Roni’s brother-in-law, told Ynet that Roni “was an amazing, special person, an angel in human form, honest, modest, only looking out for others. Mor meant everything to him, and since she was murdered he hadn’t been living.”“A few days ago, we came back from a sailing trip abroad with him and his wife. It was the first time they let themselves smile, breathe air, [he] suddenly started believing in the happiness of life again — and this morning we were informed he was murdered. What can you say? We’re just crying. The family is not in a good state and trying to process what happened to us, but I think we will never be able to process.” — Carmel Dangor כרמל דנגור (@carmeldangor) September 1, 2024-David Fokel, Mor’s fiance, told Ynet that Roni “was like a father to me. Last night I spoke with him. There isn’t a day we don’t speak.”Mor was born and raised in Sderot, and served as a trainee commander on an IDF training base next to Pardes Hanna during her army service before joining the police force approximately six years ago. While serving at the Ashkelon police station, she met Fokel, a fellow police officer, and they got engaged a few months before she was killed. The couple was planning a June wedding.Her commander, Ch. Insp. Bar Manshuri, told Ynet that Mor went up on the roof of the Sderot police station to shoot at terrorists down below until she ran out of ammunition: “She reported to me that the ammo had depleted, Unfortunately, I couldn’t help and arm them. I wrote to her that we were fighting a horrible endless battle [inside the station]. While she was in danger and fighting for her life, she wrote to me, ‘Bar, be strong.’ Even in this extreme moment, she thought of others and not herself.”Eight officers were killed in the battle at the police station.Mor’s sister and Roni’s daughter, Sapir, told Ynet that during the battle Mor “called my mom and said with a calmness and strength that I don’t know where she got from, ‘If something happens to me, it’s important to me that you know that I love you and dad and take care of Sapir.'”Since October 7, tensions have been high in the West Bank, with troops arresting some 5,000 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 2,000 affiliated with Hamas.According to the Palestinian Authority health ministry, more than 670 West Bank Palestinians have been killed in that time. The IDF says the vast majority of them were gunmen killed in exchanges of fire, rioters who clashed with troops or terrorists carrying out attacks.During the same period, 29 people, including Israeli security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank. Another six members of the security forces were killed in clashes with terror operatives in the West Bank.

Polio vaccine drive gets underway in Gaza amid fears of outbreak-Campaign led by the World Health Organization aims to inoculate 640,000 children, after first case of the disease in 25 years was reported in the territory-By Jeremy Sharon-Today, 3:26 pm-SEP 1,24

A nine-day polio vaccination drive in the Gaza Strip began on Sunday morning, with the aim of inoculating hundreds of thousands for children following the diagnosis last month of the first case of the disease in the territory in 25 years.The drive is being staggered across three geographic regions of Gaza, beginning in the central Strip from Sunday until September 3, then moving to southern Gaza from September 4 to 6, and finally northern Gaza from September 7 to 9.The vaccination campaign is being conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) together with UNICEF, and in coordination with the IDF’s Southern Command and the Defense Ministry’s Coordinator for Government Activities in the Territories agency (COGAT).WHO stated on Friday that Israel had agreed to humanitarian pauses in the fighting to facilitate the vaccination drive.“Israel sees the prevention of a polio outbreak in the Gaza Strip as an important mission in the humanitarian effort,” COGAT said.In July, an unvaccinated 10-month-old from central Gaza contracted polio and suffered partial paralysis, leading to concerns of a wider outbreak.The current campaign, which involves two doses of the vaccine per recipient, aims to cover over 640,000 children under age 10.Hospitals in Deir al-Balah and Nuseirat confirmed that the campaign had begun early Sunday, the Association Press reported.The World Health Organization has said that the presence of a paralysis case indicates there could be hundreds more who have been infected but aren’t showing symptoms.Children in #Gaza are receiving much-needed #polio vaccines today.Ultimately, the best vaccine for these children is peace. pic.twitter.com/yD1AIoXvpF— Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus (@DrTedros) September 1, 2024-A statement by COGAT said that the Israeli agencies “will work to ensure that the population can safely reach the medical centers where the vaccinations will be administered.”According to COGAT, it and the international agencies involved in the campaign “conducted joint assessments, including the import of vaccines, medical and logistical equipment, refrigeration units for vaccine storage and transportation, the entry of polio-specialized medical teams into the Gaza Strip, [and] marking vaccination areas in the operational systems.”COGAT said that over one million vaccine doses were brought into Gaza for the campaign over the last month, and that since the war started, enough vaccine had been brought into the Strip for 2.8 million people.“According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 90% of the population in the Gaza Strip was vaccinated against polio in the first quarter of 2024,” COGAT said.The organization also said that it maintains regular contact “with all relevant health system authorities and the international community to monitor the medical situation in the Gaza Strip” and noted that it has facilitated the establishment of 14 field hospitals in the territory as well as the import of 25,955 tons of medicine and medical equipment.

Now fearing Russia, Poland marks 85 years since German invasion of World War II-Prime Minister Tusk says best lesson to learn from WWII is for West to unite against ‘aggression’ on battlefields of Ukraine, not just speak of ‘reconciliation’-By AP Today, 1:33 pm-SEP 1,24

WARSAW, Poland — Poland’s leaders stressed the need for a strong defense in the face of war in neighboring Ukraine and redress as they led solemn ceremonies early Sunday to mark the 85th anniversary of German Nazi forces invading and bombing Polish territory at the start of World War II.Sirens wailed and a memorial bell tolled as President Andrzej Duda and deputy ambassador of Germany, Robert Rohde, attended an observance in the town of Wielun, the first civilian target of German bombing in the small hours of September 1, 1939. Some 1,200 people were killed in the attack which witnesses say began at 4:40 a.m.“We can say that we have forgiven even though we remember, even though the pain is persisting and even though there are still tens of thousands of those who have been directly hurt by the Germans,” Duda said. He also called on Berlin to make amends.Meanwhile, at a monument on the Baltic Sea’s Westerplatte peninsula, where a military outpost was shelled by a German warship just minutes after Wielun was attacked, Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz laid wreaths and attended a memorial roll call for fallen soldiers. At the time, the outpost’s outnumbered troops fought for seven days before surrendering to the Germans, becoming a symbol of heroism and patriotism.Tusk said war was present again in the region as the Russian invasion of Ukarine, which began in 2022, grinds on.He said, in a clear reference to Germany, it wasn’t enough to speak about “reconciliation” or to “bend your head in a sense of guilt,” adding that the best sign of lessons learned from the past is “the readiness to organize the entire western world, Europe and NATO for the defense against aggression that we are witnessing today in the battlefields of Ukraine.”“Today we will not say ‘Neven Again.’ Today we must say ‘Never Again Alone’,” the prime minister said.Tusk also said Poland was building “the most modern army in Europe, one of the strongest in Europe” to actively contribute to the unity and strength of the NATO defense alliance and the European continent and “to defend our civilization” and “never again expose our homeland to any risks.”In more than five years of World War II and brutal German occupation, Poland lost 6 million citizens or a sixth of its population, of whom 3 million were Jewish. The country also suffered huge losses to its infrastructure, industry and agriculture.Poland’s previous right-wing government demanded $1.3 trillion in damages from Germany. Tusk’s current Cabinet has toned the demand down to some form of compensation that could serve to strengthen the ties between the two neighbors. Germany insists the matter is closed as it had paid damages to the Moscow-led East Bloc after the war. Warsaw says it did not get any share of it.Addressing attendees at the Wielun observance, the Polish president said: “Forgiveness and the admission of guilt is one thing, but compensation for the damage caused is another thing. And this issue has not been settled yet.”

Ex-hostage: I can’t start a new life here as lives end there-Hostage families vow to bring country to a halt after several bodies found in Gaza-Forum urges major disruptions Sunday to protest government ‘abandonment,’ after thousands rally for ceasefire deal; sister of hostage injured by mounted police in Tel Aviv clashes-By Jessica Steinberg, Michael Bachner, Emanuel Fabian, Jacob Magid and ToI Staff Today, 3:04 am-SEPT 1,24

A prominent activist group representing many relatives of hostages held in Gaza called on the public Saturday night to stage major protests against the government on Sunday, shortly after the military said it had found several bodies in Gaza that may be remains of Israeli hostages.If that possibility is confirmed, it would come after more bodies of captives were recently returned from the Strip, further fueling accusations that the leadership has left the hostages to die in captivity by failing to secure a deal to return them. That accusation has featured in recent weekly demonstrations, including mass rallies held Saturday evening.“At this stage, the forces are still operating in the area and carrying out a process to extract and identify the bodies, which will last several hours,” the military said, calling on the public not to spread unverified rumors.Minutes later, the Hostages and Missing Families Forum released a self-described “dramatic” statement, saying: “Netanyahu abandoned the hostages. It is now a fact. Starting tomorrow, the country will tremble. We call on the public to prepare. The country will grind to a halt. The abandonment is over.”The Forum said it would provide further details on Sunday morning. Opposition Leader Yair Lapid also responded, accusing Netanyahu of focusing on insignificant issues as “our sons and daughters are being abandoned and dying in captivity.”“Not the Philadelphi Corridor nor the polio vaccines [in Gaza] interest him — just the coalition and preserving [the partnership with Bezalel] Smotrich and [Itamar] Ben Gvir,” he charged. “In the process, he is crushing the families and the nation of Israel.”The developments came days after the security cabinet voted to back Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s demand to not withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor in any deal, and as a polio vaccination drive was beginning in the Gaza Strip.-Protests, clashes in Tel Aviv-Anti-government protesters gathered throughout Israel on Saturday to call for the release of hostages and the replacement of the government.As has been the case for the months, two rallies were held adjacent to one another in Tel Aviv, one focusing on holding early elections and the other, led by family members of hostages, calling for a ceasefire-hostage deal.The protest at Hostages Square in Tel Aviv was hosted by actor Lior Ashkenazi, who said that no child should have to start a new school year having learned or experienced what has happened over the last eleven months.Yael Adar, mother of Tamir Adar who was killed defending Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7 and taken captive to Gaza, said her grandchildren — Tamir’s daughters — will go to school on Sunday for the first time without their father. Her four-year-old granddaughter is in a nursery class that includes some who were killed on October 7, another who was taken hostage, and some whose parents, grandparents, aunts or uncles were killed or taken hostage.“She’ll see the empty chair of Ariel Bibas,” said Adar, referring to the toddler who turned 5 in captivity earlier this month. “How do you explain that to children?”The brother of hostage Idan Shtivi, Omri, used his speech to address Netanyahu, himself a bereaved brother of Yoni Netanyahu who rescued over 100 hostages during the 1976 raid on Entebbe, and asked how the brother of someone “who gave up his life to rescue hostages — is refusing to save the hostages. When is it Idan’s turn to be free?”Shtivi spoke about the “huge gap between the courage of the IDF soldiers, their battles and successes, and the lack of achievement on the part of the government. It’s humiliating.”Released hostage Agam Goldstein-Almog, who returned home after 51 days in captivity along with her mother and two younger siblings, having seen her father and older sister killed by Hamas terrorists, said she was attending the rally to show that “there is life after death.”“But I cannot describe how difficult it is for me to start a new life here while lives are ending there,” Goldstein-Almog said. “How hard it is to look forward when their faces are before me all the time. How can I begin to process my immense loss when I’m constantly afraid of losing more people? How can I start without telling you about those still in captivity?”The faces and names of each hostage, those presumed alive and those who were killed in captivity, were shown during the protests as the crowd of thousands called, “All of them, bring them home now!”The anti-government protest held at Democracy Square was highlighted by speakers Yair Golan, chairman of the Labor party now rebranded as The Democrats, and Yaniv Roznai, a professor of constitutional law at Reichman University.After the official portion of the protests ended, some demonstrators briefly blocked the Ayalon Highway before being pushed back by police.The police officers also stood between the demonstrators and right-wing counter-protesters who appeared in the same location near the Ayalon Highway. Some anti-government protesters said a right-wing activist had used pepper spray against them.Police skirmished with anti-government protesters, and Natalie Zangauker, whose brother Matan is captive in Gaza and whose mother Einav has been a leading voice in the protest movement, was knocked over by a horse-mounted police officer and hospitalized for medical attention. — Or-ly Barlev ???? אור-לי ברלב (@orlybarlev) August 31, 2024-Labor MKs Naama Lazimi and Gilad Kariv were at the scene, attempting to protect the protesters and arguing that it is illegal to use horse-mounted police in nonviolent protests.Lazimi tweeted that a man who tried to treat her and was himself arrested is the deputy head of the transplant unit at Beilinson Hospital.Police said the incident would be “checked,” and Natalie Zangauker released a video from Ichilov Hospital, referring to the demonstrations called for Sunday in response to the bodies being found.“Even mounted police won’t stop me from protesting for Matan and the rest of the hostages,” she said late Saturday night. “Tomorrow everyone heads out to protest on their behalf.”Protests across Israel-In Nes Ziona, protests revolved around the school year set to begin on Sunday by exhibiting schoolbags featuring the faces of Ariel Bibas and his baby brother, Kfir Bibas. Another protester held a sign mimicking a piece of looseleaf paper that read: “What I did on my summer vacation: 1. Lived in a hotel (where evacuees are still living months after October 7) 2. I started wetting the bed again 3. A missile hit my house and destroyed it 4. My father was injured in Gaza 5. I missed my friends.”At Hemed Junction, protesters lined the side of the highway. A set of women sat with their eyes covered and wrists tied, symbolizing the female hostages held in Gaza. In Haifa, hundreds of people marched, calling for elections and holding signs accusing Netanyahu of abandoning the hostages.At Tzahala, poster board cutouts of the hostages were displayed, and protesters held oversized, bright red signs bordered with thumbnail pictures of each hostage and the message, “Netanyahu is torpedoing the deal” — each sign printed with dates of previous deals over the past months that were in negotiation and allegedly torpedoed by the prime minister.In Caesarea, where Netanyahu owns a second home, hundreds lined the main street holding flags, drums and signs calling for the premier to be sent to jail. In nearby Karkur, protesters blocked the main intersection as they called for the government to be disbanded immediately. Police forces eventually blocked protesters and arrested one person.Meanwhile, a senior Israeli official familiar with the hostage negotiations told The Times of Israel Saturday that Netanyahu was risking blowing up the talks so that the IDF can remain in the Philadelphi Corridor for a mere additional six weeks.“The proposal he backed still requires the IDF to withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor after the first phase,” the senior Israeli official said, fuming over the Thursday night security cabinet vote to back Netanyahu’s stance regarding military deployment along the nine-mile Gaza-Egypt border stretch.“This isn’t about permanent control of the Philadelphi [Corridor]. It’s about six weeks,” the official added, referring to the length of the first phase of the three-phase ceasefire being negotiated.“The security establishment still believes that we can return to the Philadelphi Corridor if need be even after withdrawing,” the official said, adding that the area would be “sterile” and lined with sensors and other security measures to prevent weapons smuggling.The recovery of the hostages’ bodies who were alive until recently is the latest demonstration “that military pressure without a parallel diplomatic initiative is condemning the hostages to their deaths,” the Israeli official said.The official lamented that Netanyahu has placed a premium on the importance of military pressure while neglecting the need to advance diplomatic initiatives, including a hostage deal. Meanwhile, Channel 13 news quoted unnamed senior officials from several Israeli security bodies as saying the talks were “on the brink of collapse,” and accusing the government of managing the negotiations based on “political considerations.”It is believed that 103 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of 33 confirmed dead by the IDF. Hamas released 105 civilians during a weeklong truce in late November, and four hostages were released before that.Eight hostages have been rescued by troops alive, and the bodies of 31 hostages have also been recovered, including three mistakenly killed by the military as they tried to escape their captors.Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014.

Report: New IDF assessment shows some 6,000 Gazans invaded Israel on Oct. 7-Channel 12 says army data indicates 3,800 of the attackers were members of Hamas’s elite Nukhba force-By ToI Staff 31 August 2024, 11:54 pm

New assessments indicate twice as many Gazans breached the border into Israel on October 7 than previously believed, Channel 12 reported Saturday, citing data compiled by the Israel Defense Forces’ Gaza Division.Some 3,800 terrorists from the Hamas terror group’s elite Nukhba forces smashed through the border fence, the report said, among a total of 6,000 Gazans who crossed into Israel that day.Hitherto, figures made public indicated that some 3,000 Hamas-led terrorists participated in the invasion, massacre and hostage-taking that day. That number did not take into account Gazans who crossed the fence and participated in the atrocities but were not Hamas members, nor did it differentiate between Nukhba terrorists and other Hamas terrorists.It was unclear from the report what the status was of the 2,200 other Gazans who infiltrated Israel on October 7. Presumably, many were civilians, as extensive footage of the onslaught showed many enter to loot and take part in the assault, while others were likely members of other Hamas units or other terrorist organizations such as the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.The TV report also said that the border was breached in 119 spots — again, about double the previously widely cited figure of 60 breaches in the Gaza-Israel fence.Additionally, 1,000 terrorists inside Gaza were involved in firing rockets at Israel that day, the report said, meaning that a total of some 7,000 Gazans took part in the onslaught.Some 5,000 rockets were fired at Israel on October 7, with 3,000 of them in the first four hours of the onslaught, according to the IDF.Channel 12 said the data was submitted to IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi.In response to the report, Channel 12 quoted the IDF Spokesman’s Office as saying that the IDF’s operational probe of the events surrounding October 7 has not yet been completed, and is continuing in accordance with situational assessments and operational needs.Upon completion, the findings will be made public, the spokesman’s office said.The October 7 massacre saw terrorists kill some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnap 251, all while committing widespread atrocities and mass sexual assault. Over 350 people were killed at a music festival and whole families were executed in their homes.
