Newly revealed audio recordings capture the final, desperate moments of Amit Mann, a 22-year-old paramedic from Kibbutz Be'eri, during the October 7th Hamas attack. The recordings, along with testimonies from her sisters, detail Mann's efforts to treat the wounded and her pleas for help as Hamas terrorists infiltrated the kibbutz and reached the clinic where she was working.
In one recording, Mann is heard telling a dispatcher, "I don't understand what's happening. There are many wounded and dead here and there is still active gunfire. There are no forces that can evacuate the wounded. I think there are still terrorists still wandering around." The dispatcher attempts to calm her, promising assistance that was delayed.
Her sister, Chaviva Mann, described listening to the recording as heartbreaking, noting that after the call, Amit continued to comfort the injured, providing them with water and makeshift headrests. Mann, along with kibbutz nurse Nirit and Dr. Daniel Levy, worked in the kibbutz's dental clinic, which became a makeshift treatment center, while security team members Shachar Tzemach and Eitan Haddad fought to defend the building.
Prior to her last call to police at 10:41 AM, Mann made seven calls to Magen David Adom (MDA), reporting the infiltration and the growing number of casualties. In one call, she stated, "I have two wounded and one dead here in the clinic right now. I don't really have equipment, but what I still have..." She expressed concern that terrorists were still active and firing.
As their ammunition ran out, Tzemach and Haddad suggested Mann try to surrender, hoping her role as a paramedic might spare her. When she emerged with her hands raised, she was shot in the leg. She managed to drag herself back inside as terrorists entered, using grenades and RPGs, and killing everyone else present. Her sister Chaviva recounted Amit's final phone call, during which Amit said, "They murdered everyone, only I remained, I won't survive this, they are on me." The call was then disconnected.
Two years later, the Mann family remains deeply affected, struggling with the lack of accountability. Chaviva stated, "We are not getting answers, and we are still in the loop of that day, stuck there. Almost everyone who was responsible that day is still in their position, continuing towards their next election term. There are no apologies, no acceptance of responsibility, no lessons learned so that something like this doesn't happen." The family decided to release the recordings to ensure the truth is not forgotten.
