The Israel Defence Forces on Monday released previously unseen video footage of the October 7, 2023 attacks, ahead of the one-year anniversary of Hamas’s cross-border terrorist massacre in the northwestern Negev.

One video clip shows members of the IDF’s elite Multi-Dimensional Unit operating in Kibbutz Re’im on the morning of October 7. The kibbutz was one of the first communities attacked by Hamas terrorists that day, and IDF and police forces battled the gunmen for some 13 hours in the area.

During the confrontation with dozens of terrorists who infiltrated Re’im, the commander of the Multi-Dimensional Unit, Col. Roy Joseph Levy, 44, was killed, along with another officer, Cpt. Yotam Ben Bassat, 24.

A second video released by the IDF on Sunday shows the battle at the police station in the southern city of Sderot after Hamas took control of the area, killing dozens of people including police officers and civilians.
