Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office has released photos Thursday that it said confirmed Hamas terrorists “murdered and burned” babies in Kfar Aza, in southern Israel near the Gaza Strip. The images purport to show the bodies of two infants who were burned alive, with the third appearing to show a decapitated infant in a blood-splattered onesie. The photos appear to have been taken inside a medical facility. “Here are some of the photos Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken,” read a post by Netanyahu’s office on X. “Warning: These are horrifying photos of babies murdered and burned by the Hamas monsters. Hamas is inhuman. Hamas is ISIS.” LIVE UPDATES: ISRAEL AT WAR WITH HAMAS Members of the Israeli Defense Forces work Tuesday to clear houses and organize bodies of civilians who were killed in an attack by Hamas militants in Kfar Aza, Israel, days earlier.

The soldiers found about 200 dead, including 40 dead babies, some of whom they said were decapitated, local Israeli media reported. “It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. You see the babies, the mother, the father, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms, and how the terrorists killed them,” IDF Maj. Gen. Itai Veruv said, describing the scene, i24News reported. As of Thursday, more than 1,200 people have been reported killed in Israel from the conflict, which erupted on Saturday.

The IDF posted an image on X purportedly showing an ISIS flag and other weaponry that has been taken from Hamas since they began launching their assault on Israel. “Hamas brought ISIS flags to massacre Israeli children, women and men,” the IDF wrote. “Hamas is a genocidal terrorist organization. Hamas is worse than ISIS.” The location of where the photo was taken was not immediately clear. An Israeli soldier inspects a destroyed house in Kfar Aza, Israel, on Tuesday.

They should be spit out from the community of nations. No leaders should meet them. No country should harbor them. And those that do should be sanctioned.” Fox News’ Chris Pandolfo and Danielle Wallace contributed to this report. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
