This is the moment a senior Hamas spokesman stormed out of a BBC interview after being asked how the terrorists justified killing Israeli families as they slept in their beds.
Hamas’s deputy foreign minister in Gaza, Ghazi Hamad, was harassed by the BBC’s Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega over the barbaric murders of up to 1,500 Israelis.
In the sit-down interview, Mr. Hamad pointed out that there were no orders to kill civilians when Hamas invaded Israel on October 7, when the terrorists paraglided into the desert, surrounding the Nova festival and 260 festival-goers slaughtered as they fled for their lives.
Footage has since emerged of the massacre at Kibbutz Be’eri, where people were slaughtered in their beds. Images shown to Web from the Israeli embassy in London, which are too graphic to publish, show the blood-spattered rooms.
Three bodies were left in the bedroom of a home by Hamas militants who killed at least 100 people in the community. A woman lies face down in a pool of her own blood. Her blonde hair is stained with blood and the wall behind her has at least six bullet holes.

As harrowing photos showed the aftermath of a carnage caused when Hamas barbarians opened fire on a preschool, teddy bears were riddled with bullets and an unknown number of innocents were killed.
But Mr Hamad said in disbelief that there had been “clashes and confrontations” “because the area was very wide”.
Mr Bachega said there was no confrontation when they entered people’s homes, to which he replied: “I can tell you that we had neither the intention nor the decision to kill the civilians.”
He was then asked how he could justify killing people in their sleep. Then Mr. Hamad looks to the side, removes his microphone, which is attached to his dark suit jacket, and declares: “I would like to end this interview.”
Then he throws the microphone on the floor.
Up to 1,500 Israelis have been killed at the hands of Hamas and at least 200 have been returned to Gaza as hostages.
Some of the most shocking images and footage to emerge since the barbaric attacks included Hamas’s invasion of Israel and the encirclement of the Nova music festival, where thousands of innocent partygoers had danced the night away.
Yesterday, Dor Kapah told how he heroically escaped the festival by driving a getaway vehicle full of terrified civilians being pursued by a fleet of gun-wielding terrorists on motorbikes.
However, he appeared agitated when BBC Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega asked him to justify killing families as they slept in their beds
Without answering the question, he explains that he wants to end the interview before taking off his microphone and throwing it on the floor
At least 100 people were killed by Hamas terrorists in the early hours of the morning
“Everything was fantastic until 6 a.m. … then we saw the tracks of rockets shooting into the air,” Dor said.
“The music stopped, everyone panicked.” People started running, lying on the ground… it was complete chaos. We heard shots in the distance… then we saw them coming – 400 meters away. 300 meters.’
Dor and his friends began packing up their belongings and preparing their jeep to flee the festival site. But then he received a call from a friend on a nearby kibbutz that put the group in a quandary.
“Don’t leave the festival,” the friend said. “The streets are full of terrorists.”
It was in that moment that Dor truly realized how dire his predicament was – damned if you stay, damned if you go, and gunmen lurking at his every turn.
But when terrorists with AK-47s started attacking him, Dor and his buddies had no choice but to get in their jeep and drive off.
While people were being massacred in their beds on Be’eri Kibbutz, Israel published images of small babies being murdered and burned.
The more than 100 bodies found in the kibbutz were removed by the Zaka search and rescue group.

Earlier this month, a survivor, Haim Jelin, told local media that Hamas fighters “walked around Be’eri as if they owned the place.”
“They shot indiscriminately, kidnapped whoever they could, burned down people’s houses so that they had to escape through the window where the terrorists were waiting,” he added.
A woman named Miri Gad Mesika told local media that she and her husband suffocated from thick smoke and gas fumes as they tried to hide.
“We soaked towels with water and covered our faces while my husband Eli held the shelter door shut as tightly as he could while the terrorists tried to break in,” she said.
“Just before jumping from the second floor, we assessed the fire situation, looked for the terrorists and decided to jump.”
“We fled to our neighbors across the street and watched our house go up in flames before it burned down completely. ‘I have no idea how we survived.’
