Newly released security camera footage shows Hamas terrorists shooting a woman in the back as she tried to run away from them.

The video was taken at the gate of Mefalsim, a kibbutz near Gaza on the morning of Oct. 7.

The video shows the Hamas gunman leading the unidentified woman down a road as a Toyota pickup truck drives toward them.

The woman then breaks away and starts running, but does not make it far before falling to the ground after she's shot in the back.

Documents found on dead terrorists indicate that the militants set out from the start to attack civilian areas like Mefalsim. They are also a testament to the uniquely sophisticated intelligence-gathering for the deadly mission by Hamas.

One 14-page “top secret” document in Arabic carefully detailed a plan for infiltrating a small kibbutz near Gaza, and taking residents hostage "for negotiations." Maps and aerial photos of the area were included.

The plan warned that the invaders would have to prepare for a response by Israeli forces in as little as three minutes.

In fact, it took Israeli soldiers and police hours to reach some of the kibbutzim that suffered the worst of that day's atrocities.

“It shows sophistication, systematic intelligence collection, use of human sources, use of open intelligence sources and information obtained through cyberattacks,” said Eyal Pinko, a former security services officer, of the Hamas plan for Mefalsim.

One Hamas terrorist used a victim’s cell phone to contact his parents in Gaza and brag about slaughtering 10 Israeli citizens in the kibbutz.

“I’m speaking to you from Kibbutz Mefalsim. Open my WhatsApp now and see all the dead people. Look how many I killed with my own hands, your son killed Jews!"
