Hamas Group
According to a report, the militants from Hamas devised a cunning plan to carry out their surprise attack last weekend on Israeli schools and youth centers and murder as many people as they could. The story was based on “top secret” documents that were discovered on the bodies of Hamas fighters by Israeli first responders. The Arabic-language documents revealed the precise intentions of Hamas groups to infiltrate, encircle, and take hostages from people, particularly women and children, at three Israeli kibbutzim close to the Gaza border.
Hamas militants told to “kill as many as possible”
The new Da’at school, the Bnei Akiva youth center, and the old Da’at school in the kibbutz of Kfar Sa’ad were all clearly identified on the documents as targets for attack by Hamas. The plans also specified the routes the Hamas units would take and the means of transportation they would employ.
Invaders were told in the documents to “kill as many as possible” and “capture hostages.” In the papers, the settlements of Kfar Aza, Nahal Oz, and Alumim were also mentioned.

Planning like never before
According to Israeli officials, they are currently studying numerous identical blueprints that they retrieved from Hamas members. The level of detail and ingenuity of the plans startled one IDF soldier, he claimed. The drawings, he claimed, demonstrated that Hamas was aiming for gathering spaces for people, including “the dental office, the supermarket, and the dining hall.”
He said that he had “never seen this kind of detailed planning” for a mass terrorist attack. The plans ran counter to Hamas’ statements that their strikes on Israel were not intended to murder children.
On Friday, Palestinian militants released a horrific video that showed men in fatigues holding and amusing themselves with kidnapped Israeli infants and kids. Until Hamas releases the detainees, Israel declared a “complete siege” on Gaza, cutting off all supplies to the territory.
