Hamas launched a rocket attack against the kibbutz of Kisufim, while the protothema.gr mission -consisting of reporters Frixos Drakontidis and Panagiotis Koufalexis- were visiting the site.
This particular kibbutz was one of the first places to be attacked by Hamas, on the morning of October 7, and mourned dozens of dead.
The protothema.gr mission, who were the second, after CNN to enter the kibbutz, were interviewing surviving residents, who described how they experienced the attack, witnessing themselves what happened in the area.
Prior to going there, they had been warned by the military that even if the alarms went off, the shelters at the site had been destroyed and therefore, they would have to drop down.
The reporters ran and found a makeshift shelter in a warehouse.

After the rockets fired by Hamas, there was an exchange of fire and the soldier accompanying the protothema.gr mission said that it is preferable, for security reasons, to leave in high speed.
