During a speech to Congress, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the recent attack on Israel on Oct 7, 2023, as the equivalent of '20 9/11's in one day' based on population size. He painted a grim picture of the atrocities committed by the attackers, stating that they raped women, beheaded men, and burnt babies alive.
Netanyahu went on to detail the brutal nature of the attack, mentioning how the perpetrators killed parents in front of their children and vice versa. He also highlighted the horrific act of dragging 255 people, both living and dead, into the dark dungeons of Gaza.
