Hamas' inhumanity is revealed in the private footage shown by the pastor at the Israeli Embassy.

Washington- A number of clergymen gathered at the Israeli Embassy on Monday to watch a private screening of raw footage and audio revealing Hamas atrocities during its latest inspection in Israel. The event, organised by the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in collaboration with the Embassy, highlighted the brutal attack on October 7 by Hamas militants. The 45-minute video screening, compiled by the Israeli government, featured violent scenes in which Hamas members opened fire on civilians, boasted about killing Jews, and attacked the Supernova music festival, resulting in the deaths of about 260 people. The footage shown comes from a variety of sources, including Hamas body cameras, security cameras, social media posts, cell phone cameras, and first responses. Participants were not allowed to record the event out of respect for the families of the victims, who may not have seen the graphic footage and photos.

At the screening, Hamas members were seen breaking borders, shooting at civilians, and attacking the Supernova music festival. Some clips show Hamas militants killing festival attendees, taking citizens hostage, and even using agricultural implements for cruel acts. In one of the audio recordings played, a Hamas terrorist bragged about killing 10 people, using the phone of a dead Jewish woman to call her parents. Bishop Paul Lanier, chairman of the board of directors of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, said Christians should highlight such atrocities and commit to defending the lives and people of Israel. Although some Christian leaders have called for a ceasefire, Lanier cautioned that as long as Hamas is still shooting and taking hostages, the ceasefire does not correspond to reality. Jonathan Avendano, managing director of the National Hispanic Pastors Alliance, insists that the only way to stop crime is to remove it. He argues that if Hamas surrenders, true peace can be achieved. In an interview with the Christian Post, Eliav Benjamin denied the casualty figures presented by Hamas-run health authorities, calling them false. He also highlighted Israel's efforts to reduce civilian casualties by establishing evacuation zones and providing humanitarian aid to Gaza. Despite the enormous challenges, Benjamin insists that Israel abides by International Human Rights Law and has a duty to
