‘Pure savagery’: Hamas attack on Israel the ‘darkest day for Jewish people in decades’

The war on Israel has passed 48 hours and the shock of the Hamas terrorist attacks have shaken lives across the globe and caused the “darkest day for Jewish people in decades“, according to Sky News Australia host Sharri Markson. Ms Markson has condemned the “sickening” acts committed by the “degenerate evil” of Hamas. “It’s being called Israel’s September 11 … it is pure savagery,” she said. “But it’s the heinous barbarity that makes this attack by Hamas so sickening and so unexpected for the state of Israel that prides itself on national security. “There was no mercy shown as the elderly, the women, the children – the babies – were kidnapped, seized and carted off by jeering men – away from the safety of their homes, their loved ones and their life as they knew it. “How can humans be this cruel? To laugh and celebrate as they torture terrified, young souls who had so much ahead of them in life, who were so hopeful for the future.” Warning – this video contains distressing content.
