A Hamas terrorist was caught boasting about the number of Israeli citizens he killed during.
The October 7 attacks when the terrorist group infiltrated southern Israeli cities lying parallel to the border with Gaza Strip and killed over 1,400 people, most of them civilians.
The audio accessed by CNN-News18 reveals the Hamas terrorist telling his father that he has killed ten Israelis. The terrorist refers to the Israeli woman and the people he killed as ‘Jews’.
“I am talking to you from Mefalsim. Open my WhatsApp now and you’ll see all those killed. Look how many I killed with my own hands, your son killed Jews. Dad, I am talking to you from a Jewish woman’s phone. I killed her and killed her husband,” the terrorist can be heard saying in the phone call records obtained from the woman’s phone who was killed in the hands of the terrorist.
“I killed ten with my own hands,” the terrorist says in the recording extracted by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) and Shin Bet. They also later released the recording on social media site X.
The recording was revealed for the first time this evening at the UN Security Council.
The UN Security Council on Tuesday (local time) held several important meetings to discuss the 2023 Israel-Hamas conflict. The US, a permanent member at the UNSC, said terrorism is unjustifiable.
“All acts of terrorism are unlawful and unjustifiable. Whether they target people in Nairobi or Bali, in Mumbai, New York or Kibbutz Be’eri. They’re unlawful and unjustifiable whether they’re carried out by ISIS, by Boko Haram, by Lashkar E Taiba, or by Hamas. They’re unlawful and unjustifiable whether victims are targeted for their faith, ethnicity, nationality, or any other reason,” US secretary of state Anthony Blinken said in a statement.
He was addressing the 15-member UN Security Council amid international fears the conflict between Israel and Iran-backed Palestinian Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip could spill over into a wider war.
The US also accused Iran of fanning the flames of the war. “Don’t throw fuel on the fire,” Blinken said.
Iran rejected the US allegations, calling it baseless and said Iran is committed to peace in West Asia. “Our commitment to regional peace and stability remains unwavering. The US has further exacerbated the conflict by overtly aligning itself with the aggressor at the expense of the innocent Palestinian population,” Iran’s UN ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani was quoted as saying by Reuters.
