In a video posted online, a captured member of Hamas appears to admit that terrorists raped, tortured, and beheaded Israeli civilians of all ages.

The video shows part of an interrogation of a man, said to be a Hamas terrorist, captured by Israeli forces. The interrogator, who uses a voice changer for the video’s audio, asks the man about Hamas’ plans and intentions for the victims of the terror group’s Saturday attack.

The man identifies himself as 22-year-old Muhammad Nahed Ahmad El-Arsha of Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip near the border with Egypt. English captioning on the video shows that the man admits to targeting Israelis regardless of age or gender. He says that Hamas targeted “old men, men, and women, and babies, little ones, young, women, teenage girls” and “killed them.”

Later, the man says that Hamas terrorists beheaded their victims. “After they killed them, they cut off their heads, placed them on the ground,” the man says.

Asked about the terrorists’ plans for the women they abducted, the man responded: “I’m telling you, to whore them, rape them, hurt them, and interrogate them. Whatever they feel like doing. They raped them, attacked them.”

Asked if that included the babies that Hamas took captive, the man responded that Hamas “raped them, abducted them, attacked them, killed them.”

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are preparing for a ground assault on Gaza after days of targeted strikes against Hamas military targets. The ground assault is expected to be a lengthy and deadly affair as the IDF seeks out Hamas terrorists scattered throughout the area and in an extensive underground tunnel network in Gaza.

Two Israeli officials said the ground invasion was “imminent” on Friday, according to POLITICO. Ahead of the invasion, the IDF has cut off water and electricity to the region to strip resources from Hamas as well as encourage civilians to vacate the area. Hamas has built its military infrastructure into civilian areas by design, seeking to use them as human shields.

The war between Israel and Hamas began over the weekend when Hamas terrorists launched an unprecedented assault on Israel, killing over 1,300 Israelis, wounding thousands more, and capturing an untold number that are being held in Gaza. Israeli leadership has promised a historic response to the terror attack, which has been said to be the single deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust.
