Shocking Footage Reveals First Hours of Oct. 7 Survivors at Soroka Medical Center

Shocking security camera footage from Soroka Medical Center is set to reveal the harrowing first hours after the October 7th Hamas attacks. The recordings, three years after the massacre, show numerous young survivors arriving in a state of shock and injury from the Nova music festival and the "Death Bunker" area, as well as the surrounding Gaza envelope.

Medical teams are depicted struggling to comprehend the scale of the unfolding event, with a continuous stream of casualties arriving at the hospital. The footage will be featured in a special episode of the "Emet" (Real Time) program on Kan 11, hosted by Chen Lieberman and Roni Singer.

The program will combine the security footage with testimonies and materials gathered during the investigation. The chilling recordings document, moment by moment, the arrival of young people requiring medical attention. Amidst their own trauma, some survivors discover the fate of their loved ones.

One particularly dramatic scene shows Ziv Avod, a survivor of the "Death Bunker," arriving at Soroka in a state of extreme distress and confusion, accompanied by friends. Minutes after her arrival, the footage captures the moment she learns her boyfriend, Eli-Ha Cohen, was abducted to Gaza.

Dr. Yael Levaot, Director of the Resilience Unit at Soroka, recounts the surreal experience: "Suddenly people arrive in party clothes. Everyone looks shocked, and everything is so confusing. I don't understand what I'm seeing." She added, "I kept trying to piece together what was happening outside to understand what we were dealing with inside. You don't have a picture in your head of what they went through. You see it, and your brain doesn't want to comprehend." As more injured individuals arrived, a clearer picture emerged, indicating a complete surprise and a total loss of control.

Through this footage and these testimonies, "Emet" revisits Soroka, one of the primary locations where the southern region confronted the devastating consequences of the attack, with hundreds of wounded and survivors arriving throughout that day.
