Nahal Oz's battle recordings De Kalo recalls October 7

Oct 7, 2023

Itzik Zuaretz follows Nissan de Kalo as he opens and listens to telephone recordings from the October 7, 2023 battle at Nahal Oz for the first time in three years. The account includes Ilan Fiorentino's last call, news of friends' deaths, calls for reinforcements, a locked armory and unknown alarm code, mobile defence by seven men against a much larger attacking force, wounds and residents' rescue. It reports four defenders wounded and surviving, Yamam commander Yaakov Krasninsky killed, IDF arrival around 13:30 without adequate local maps, and subsequent clearance, alongside fifteen residents murdered and others abducted. These timings, numbers and judgements remain the feature's account. De Kalo describes grief, lasting trauma and his willingness to fight again. The feature says he returned to Nahal Oz in recent weeks after three years away; it supplies no exact return or filming date. His current interview and 2023 recorded role are retained as separate concrete person versions.
