Survivor's Account of Bunker Attack

And I look it up, and I saw a lot of rockets.

So we started to run. We saw a car in the middle of the road.

They took us to the bunker. It's like a, a bunker in the middle of the

street just to protect from the rockets. So it didn't have a door.

After 30 minutes, we started to listen a lot of shoots in

direction of the bunker. I started to feel the shoots in the

another

side, in the wall. You know then something's gonna happen,

and you cannot do anything.

We are dead. What can we do? First of all, they throw a

gas. In 30 seconds, you cannot breathe.

It's impossible to breathe, impossible.

In my mind just passed the Holocaust

when the Jews was dying with the gas.

Everybody in the shelter became crazy, so the people in the front

became to the, to the end of the, the shelter.

The shelter is really small. It's not for 40 person.

It's for 20 persons. So you don't have air.

You don't have the space. I think a lot of people died with the

gas. Became inside, and they started to shoot, and they,

they started to, to throw grenades inside.

In my mind just passed, "Okay, I'm gonna die, so please

go fast. I don't want to, to be ki- kidnapped." Like,

for me, this is the worst thing in the world.

If they see that I am alive, I am died.

So I, I stayed all the time with the eyes

closed, pretending

that I was dead in the middle of the bodies.

I saw my friend Hanani. He was like,

"I have to do something. I have to do something."

So he moved to the front of the bunker to try

to protect us.

He's a hero.

And after some minutes, I saw him being shot at.

I saw him screaming, and this is the last,

the last,

the last thing that I saw inside

that I remember.

So when I came out from the bunker, I saw, like,

a lot of people on fire,

like pieces of people, like, separated.

Like,

this is not normal. They took the life like nothing,

like nothing.

Rafaela became outside also,

so thanks God. So she's alive.

She started to scream her boyfriend names, Hanani, my

friend.

She feels like, "I want to be die,

not be alive. I wanted to go with him."

For her, the life now is nothing without him.

Yeah, it was really hard, really hard.
