Hamas terrorist calls parents with victim’s phone bragging about killing Jews: ‘Dad …killed 10 with my own hands!’

The Israel Defense Force has released a horrifying phone audio recording of a Hamas terrorist bragging to his parents about killing Jews.

Recorded during the Oct. 7th terror attack in Israel, the call was made on the phone of one of Hamas’ many victims.

In the call, a Hamas terrorist could be heard bragging to his parents that he’d just killed 10 Jews in Mefalsim, a kibbutz near the Gaza border.

“Hi, Dad. I’m talking you from Mefalsim. Open my WhatsApp now and you’ll see [pictures of] all those killed. Look how many I killed with my own hands! Your son killed Jews!” he said, according to a translation.

“Dad, I’m talking to you from a Jewish woman’s phone. I killed her, and I killed her husband. I killed ten with my own hands! Dad, ten with my own hands! Dad, open WhatsApp and see how many I killed,” he added.

As seen in the clip above, his parents were very supportive and proud of the terrorist.

“Oh my son, God bless you! May God bring you home safely,” one of them said.

Later during the call, the terrorist’s family begged him to return home, but he refused, claiming he must stay and fight until the end.

“What do you mean come back? There is no going back. It’s either death or victory. My mother gave birth to me for the religion,” he said.

This call was published Tuesday, a day after the IDF screened roughly an hour’s worth of footage from the Oct. 7th attack for the media at a military base in Israel.

The screening was attended by U.S. journalist Graeme Wood, who later penned a piece for The Atlantic describing the gruesome images he’d seen.

“The videos show pure, predatory sadism; no effort to spare those who pose no threat; and an eagerness to kill nearly matched by eagerness to disfigure the bodies of the victims. In several clips, the Hamas killers fire shots into the heads of people who are already dead. They count corpses, taking their time, and then shoot them again,” he wrote.

“Some of the clips I had not previously seen simply show the victims in a state of terror as they wait to be murdered, or covered with bits of their friends and loved ones as they are loaded into trucks and brought to Gaza as hostages. There was no footage of rape, although there was footage of young women huddling in fear and then being executed in a leisurely manner,” he added.

Other journalists have also spoken out about what they saw:

Dovetailing back to Wood’s column, in one part of the piece, he specifically addressed the call seen/heard up top.

“To me the most disturbing section was not visual at all. Like the clip of the father and his boys hunted in their pajamas, it was upsetting in part because it showed a relationship between parent and child. The clip is just a phone call—placed by a terrorist to his family back in Gaza. He tells his father that he is calling from a Jewish woman’s phone. (The phone recorded the call.) He tells his father that his son is now a ‘hero’ and that ‘I killed 10 Jews with my own hands.’ And he tells his family, about a dozen times, that they should open up WhatsApp on his phone, because he has sent photographs to prove what he has done. ‘Put on Mom!’ he says. ‘Your son is a hero!'” he wrote.

“His parents, I noticed, are not nearly as enthusiastic as he is. I believe that the mom says ‘praise be to God’ at one point, which could be gratitude for her son’s crimes or pure reflex, indicating her loss for words to match her son’s unspeakable acts. They do not question what their son has done; they do not scold him. They tell him to come back to Gaza. They fear for his safety. He says, amid rounds of ‘Allahu akbar,’ that he intends ‘victory or martyrdom’—which the parents must understand means that he will never come home. From their muted replies I wonder whether they also understand that even if he did come home, he would do so as a disgusting and degraded creature, and that it might be better for him not to,” he added.
