Amid escalating conflict between Israel and Hamas, Mor Bayder, an Israeli woman, discovered her grandmother's tragic murder via a disturbing video uploaded on Facebook, TMZ reports.
The shocking news has sent shockwaves, underlining the atrocious conditions experienced by civilians on all sides of the conflict.
Discovering the Gruesome Video on Facebook
Mor Bayder logged onto her Facebook account, expecting to connect with friends and family, only to be confronted with a nightmarish scene.
On Facebook, Mor stumbled upon a graphic video showing her grandmother lying lifeless on the floor, her Nir Oz home drenched in blood.
In a heart-wrenching account, Mor Bayder shared her anguish: "I saw that worst thing you could possibly imagine - my grandmother, in her house, being murdered in a video."
The Insider tells us that the video uploaded on her grandmother's Facebook page points to the possibility that the Hamas terrorists likely filmed the gruesome scene using her personal phone.
Relatives Recount Traumatizing Ordeal
The tragedy is part of the broader conflict that erupted when Hamas first attacked Israel over the weekend, leading to an all-out war that has left a trail of devastation and loss.
Since Saturday's initial attack, over 900 Israelis have lost their lives, while nearly 700 Palestinians have also perished in the ensuing violence.
Mor's cousin, Yoav Shimoni, confirmed the nightmarish account with CNN, recounting how the family discovered the gruesome video. "My sister commented on our group chat that there is a weird video on my grandma's Facebook," he said.
"Then, that is when we all discovered it." Shimoni also provided insight into the family's belief that Hamas militants had breached the Gaza border fence, ultimately leading to their grandmother's tragic end.
Dire Hostage Situation
Hamas targeted Kibbutz Nir Oz, a peaceful community near the Gaza border, in a series of surprise attacks on Saturday. Several residents, including a 74-year-old grandmother, remain missing, leaving families uneasy.
Israeli officials have further stated that Hamas fighters have captured over 100 hostages, adding a disturbing layer of concern to the already dire situation. The fate of these hostages remains uncertain, adding to the growing humanitarian crisis in the region.
Mor Bayder took to Facebook to describe the "brutal murder" as her worst nightmare, emphasizing her deep connection with her grandmother.
