The text chain of the Kibbutz WhatsApp group, called “Nir Oz Community Chat” tells the spine chilling story of that Black Saturday, minute by minute, plea after plea.

The most sorrowful WhatsApp group of this war comprises over 600 messages—desperate, hysterical, pleading for help that may never arrive, it bears the optimistic name, “Nir Oz Community Chat”. that was the group of the Kibbutz’s members, who suffered unbearable tragedy on that Black Sabbath, October 7th.

A small, remote kibbutz placed near the border, housing around 400 inhabitants, which the terrorists infiltrated, moving from house to house, firing their weapons, killing, and looting almost without hindrance for many hours. When they couldn’t break into the bomb shelters, they simply set the houses on fire, burning them alive.
