 I'm here at Iqlouf Hospital in the rehabilitation center. I came here to meet Shirel, an Israeli hero She was at the Nova party on the 7th of October and she was shot by a Hamas terrorist She has an unbelievable story Come with me 7th of October You were there. Yeah, what were you doing there? I was at the party. Walk me through 6 30 a.m Hamas starting to launch rockets towards Israel Towards the party as well What do you do? At that moment, I was alone because that party is I usually just go around a lot and there was a lot of stress coming up in the air and I remember seeing a friend of mine that I didn't come to the party with he was like come with me, so we We go on the ground. We cover our heads and we're We're waiting for everything to calm down Then what happened? So we did that and I call my dad and he was on the phone with me And we're waiting and my friends are convincing me. They were on the phone as well It was like this for a little while until I was like, okay, they won't stop. They're all in the car I have to go So my friend was like I'm coming to get you I ran to her. We ran together. We found the car So let me just explain how it is you go out of the party and you have a road two three two and Then you either take left, which is north right to the south And you've already took left Going towards north What happened? Why didn't you escape? Just Hamas put a barrier We drive a bit and then we go into the bomb shelter. There's a lot of people inside a lot of chaos People stressed out. I was trying to Get people's morale. I was stressing out a bit of course But I saw people losing it, you know people crying saying they don't want to be here saying they have to get out of here There's terrorists in the area and I'm I'm just like you're okay. We're okay. There's missiles right now It'll be fine Roughly how many people were inside the bomb shelter? I think about 30 about it. Yeah, then we hear the gunshots outside Shouts in Arabic and then they come in they came into the bomb. They came in There's no doors so they can just come in whenever they want and I was on the ground with my legs bent a lot of people were standing up and They started shooting at everyone and you know an instinct of a human being when they're being shot is to run So basically what happened? There's nowhere to run. You go to the end of the bomb shelter so they everyone just fell on me and Basically dying on me, you know and at that moment. I was very very Responsive and what I got into survive survival mode What's going through your mind? My parents Are they on the line? No, my phone it got this the phone call got disconnected So my dad didn't really didn't hear the gunshots But after that happened after a little while when it was safe to look up for a second I took my phone and I texted him There's people there's people people got shot. We need an ambulance ASAP Get the police. We need them right now and that's what my dad understand that the terrorists got to the bomb shelter How many dead people were there out of the roughly 30 people? A bit more than half. I was very I was in survival mode most of the time But there were times when my mind would slip away from that and then I'd start thinking and I remember I had this very vivid thought about Me being in a gas chamber like in the Holocaust I felt as if I was in the Holocaust because every time they would throw grenades, you know, there we choke on the grenade smoke and And and it was hot and we were all there's dead bodies around me and I just remember feeling like I'm in a gas chamber and There was this lady in front of me that she was screaming now at that point most people died So we were all quiet and when we were quiet We would be able to pretend to be dead So then they wouldn't hear us and come back inside because we were all very scared but then her space started Blowing up as a sort of like Infection in her body from the bullets. I don't even know Maybe her her systems collapsing inside And we all are like we all remember her screaming look what's happening to me look what's happening to me and I Didn't say this but you know people said be quiet for how long You stayed in that bomb shelter seven hours seven hours with More than 15 dead bodies. Yeah with a bullet Yep, that what hit your knee it hit my knee and it broke both my knee and My calf. I was just wondering With the terrorist Hamas terrorists, did they try to make sure like during the seventh hours that you were in that Bomb shelter did they try to come and To make sure that everybody is dead once in every while. Yeah, they came back all the time Did you thought about the fact that you could have been that you're going to die? Yeah, yeah, I was ready. I told myself. I was ready for them to come and kill me until one of the girls Said that her dad was gonna come rescue us. There's really people and there's a lot of people in the world as well Not only think but knows that you are here and you should be proud of yourself being seven hours in such a Unbelievable conditions like this. It's it's not something for human beings. No and still surviving and seeing you From time to time if you put a smile on your face, that's the biggest win over those terrorists Any message to the Israeli people? We're strong we're very strong and I miss my high And I think this is exactly the time we can finish this video. I miss our high and just like Cheryl She is strong. We are strong and we will win
