Hamas terrorists developed a plan to target elementary schools and a center for young people in the Israeli kibbutz of Kfar Sa’ad with the objective to “kill as many people as possible,” according to a report.
NBC News reveals:
The attack plans, which are labeled “top secret” in Arabic, appear to be orders for two highly trained Hamas units to surround and infiltrate villages and target places where civilians, including children, gather. Israeli authorities are still determining the death toll in Kfar Sa’ad.
The documents were found on the bodies of Hamas terrorists by Israeli first responders and shared with NBC News. They include detailed maps and show that Hamas intended to kill or take hostage civilians and school children.
One page labeled “Top Secret” outlines a plan of attack for Kfar Sa’ad, saying “Combat unit 1” is directed to “contain the new Da’at school,” while “Combat unit 2” is to “collect hostages,” “search the Bnei Akiva youth center” and “search the old Da’at school.”
Hamas’s deadly terror attack on Israel has killed at least 1,300 people and wounded 3,300 more, according to the latest reports.
Among with most gruesome assaults was on the Israeli kibbutz of Kfar Aza, which saw 100 people killed, with some of the victims reportedly found burned and others decapitated.
KFAR AZA, ISRAEL – OCTOBER 10: A view of a house left in ruins after an attack by Hamas militants on this kibbutz days earlier when dozens of civilians were killed near the border with Gaza, on October 10, 2023 in Kfar Aza, Israel. Israel has sealed off Gaza and conducted airstrikes on Palestinian territory after an attack by Hamas killed hundreds and took more than 100 hostages. On October 7, the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel from Gaza by land, sea, and air, killing over 700 people and wounding more than 2000. Israeli soldiers and civilians have also been taken hostage by Hamas and moved into Gaza. The attack prompted a declaration of war by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and ongoing retaliatory strikes by Israel on Gaza killing hundreds. (Alexi J. Rosenfeld/Getty Images)
“We see blood spread out in homes. We’ve found bodies of people who have been butchered,” Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Maj. Libby Weiss told CBS News. “The depravity of it is haunting.”
Yossi Landau, the leader of operations for the southern region of Zaka, said he personally witnessed the aftermath in which babies had been decapitated, CBS News said.
“I saw a lot more that cannot be described for now, because it’s very hard to describe,” Landau stated.
In response to the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to crush Hamas in Gaza and has ordered residents to evacuate to the southern part of the strip ahead of a possible ground invasion. The IDF told Fox News that its forces have already conducted successful raids into Gaza.

“The IDF tells Fox News that Israeli forces entered the Gaza Strip today, both infantry forces and tanks, to conduct localized raids,” Fox News’s foreign correspondent Trey Yingst reported. “This was not the full-scale invasion that everyone is still anticipating, but it was an effort, according to the Israeli military, to eliminate militants along the border and also to gather information on those held hostage inside the Gaza Strip.”
