October 9, 2023 – Israel-Hamas war news

Warning: This post contains graphic descriptions of violence.

Dash camera videos obtained by CNN appear to show what happened when Hamas militants arrived near the site of a music festival where more than 260 people were killed over the weekend.

At about 7:39 a.m. local time on Saturday, according to the car’s dash camera, an unknown driver was traveling northward on a highway just outside of Re’im, Israel, near the Nova Festival grounds. An armed man standing in the street starts shooting at the car.

The video, which has no audio, shows the car as it continues to slowly move up the road and bullets are fired into the vehicle. Its windshield shows some of the strikes. 

The video shows at least 10 more fighters open fire on the vehicle until it finally stops, crashing into another car. It’s not known what happened to the people inside. 

A second video — another dash camera from a parked car just up the road — shows more militants near a bus stop and bomb shelter. Militants surrounded a bomb shelter and were screaming at a shirtless man standing outside it. This incident happened at 7:56 a.m. local time, according to the video.

It’s unclear what is being said, but the man squats on the ground and they begin kicking him. It’s also not known what happened to the man.

The video then shows a militant throwing a grenade into the bomb shelter. Another man runs out, trying to escape the explosion. 

He runs out of frame, but the militants immediately fix their guns on him and begin firing. His fate is also unknown.

CNN visited that bomb shelter today. Its interior was covered in blood.
