She placed her squad of kibbutzniks in strategic positions across the kibbutz and set up ambushes that caught the gunmen of guard and turned the tables on them during their mission to inflict mass casualties.

Lieberman killed five terrorists by herself, while the others gunned down 20 others over four hours as they turned Nir Am into an impenetrable fortress – while nearby kibbutzim suffered heavy losses, Walla News reported.

[We have seen awful stories of the depravity of Hamas jihadists, and will continue to hear more as the Israelis comb their way through the south. Hopefully we will hear more stories of Israeli bravery and true resistance, and see more heroes emerge like Inba Lieberman.
