It’s a shocking event. A new war erupted between Hamas and Israel, and Jerusalem was caught entirely unaware. The level of sophistication by Hamas in executing this assault was a curveball. It involved a rocket barrage, followed by a land and air assault. Terrorists on motorcycles, boats, and paragliders attacked Israel from multiple points, seizing parts of the country. Around 300 Israelis were killed in the immediate attacks, with another 1,500 wounded. There were also reports of kidnappings at the outset of the war. One of the ghastlier images was a dead woman in the back of a pickup truck being paraded and desecrated by Hamas terrorists.

The initial reports were that this was an Israeli woman. It’s not. Her name is Shani Louk, a German national visiting Israel for a music festival in the southern part of the country. We can’t post the footage due to the graphic nature, but it’s here if you want to watch. Shani’s parents watched the footage and identified her from the tattoos (via WaPo):

PUBLISHED October 8, 2023
It’s an unreal post on TikTok, not in a good way. It’s not some fantastic clip of a sporting event or a stunt. It’s capturing the final moments of many featured in the brief clip, which reportedly shows Hamas terrorists paragliding into Israel. It was supposed to be a joyous music festival in Southern Israel; it became a killing field. And before the shots were fired, you can see the paragliders in the background before the attack (via CBS News):
