00:00
Yeah, very, very difficult to watch, as you can imagine.
00:03
The Israeli army invited journalists
00:05
to a screening of raw footage of those massacres carried out
00:09
on October the 7th.
00:11
They put together a 45-minute video compiled
00:14
from hundreds of hours, they said, of footage
00:17
from dash cams, body cams worn by members of Hamas,
00:21
body cams from first responders, mobile phone footage.
00:24
And very, very distressing images, indeed.
00:28
I think one piece of footage that really marked people
00:31
sitting and watching in the auditorium
00:34
showed a father running and carrying his two sons
00:38
in a kibbutz to a shelter.
00:40
And then the father was killed.
00:46
The two sons run back to the kitchen.
00:50
And you can hear them screaming in the kitchen,
00:52
on the footage, asking why they're alive,
00:56
where is their mom, where is their dad.
00:59
And in the meantime, their father's killer
01:01
is stood next to them, helping himself
01:03
to drinks from the fridge.
01:05
So very, very surreal, very awful scenes.
01:10
We were also shown audio, an audio recording
01:13
of a member of Hamas using a phone,
01:17
the phone of a dead Jewish woman,
01:18
to call his parents in the Gaza Strip
01:22
to boast about how many people he'd killed.
01:26
So a lot of loud gasps in the auditorium, crying,
01:30
and a lot of people just simply unable to watch.
01:33
As you say, difficult for you to watch that footage, Andrew.
01:38
I'm interested, though, why you think
01:40
the Israeli army decided to show journalists
01:43
like yourself these videos.
01:44
It's a good question.
01:49
I mean, the Israeli army spokesperson, Daniel Hagari,
01:53
he spoke just before showing the footage.
01:56
He said that he wanted to show people who they were fighting.
02:02
He said that after October 7th, something had changed.
02:04
The nature of the enemy had changed.
02:07
But in a nutshell, this is really about, I think,
02:09
the battle for public opinion, not here in Israel, of course,
02:12
but around the world.
02:14
It's been two weeks since those massacres.
02:17
And since then, of course, Israel
02:19
has responded with heavy bombardments in the Gaza Strip.
02:22
We've seen and heard of Palestinian civilians,
02:26
innocent Palestinian civilians, being killed, of course.
02:29
We've seen and heard the pictures and the testimony.
02:31
But I think Israel wants us not to forget, of course,
02:34
what they suffered, too, on October 7th,
02:37
with the horrific scenes that we saw once again today.
