Israel shares horror vid showing kidnap of bloody dad of Hamas’ youngest hostage Baby Kfir as mob pose for selfies

ISRAEL has shared a horror video showing the bloody dad of Hamas’ youngest hostage being kidnapped during the October 7 attacks.

Yarden Bibas, the father of 10-month-old Kfir Bibas, can be seen dripping with blood as a Palestinian mob pummel him from head to toe.

Sandwiched between two men presumed to be Hamas terrorists on a motorcycle, angry men soon swarm the trio as they try and reach the helpless dad.

The two men sitting on the bike with Yarden and a couple of others standing next to it angrily attempt to protect him from the onslaught, but Yarden’s head and hands are soon covered in blood.

The crazed mob then attempts to take selfies with Yarden as the horrific ordeal escalates further.

The video was shared by Israeli president Isaac Herzog as part of his demand to return innocent civilians to Israel.

Taking to social media, he said: “The world must not remain silent in the face of such crimes. Bring them home now!”

It came on the day of Hamas’ initial attacks on Israel where more than 1,160 people were killed during the mass slaughter.

Herzog’s plea comes amid the ongoing fight to bring the Bibas family home, who are most notable for their youngest member, baby Kfir.

Baby Kfir and his four-year-old brother, Ariel, were kidnapped alongside their mother and Yarden’s wife, Shiri, during Hamas’ assault into Israel last year.

It was initially reported that Yarden surrendered himself to the gunmen in the hope that they would spare his wife and children.

The video was taken shortly after his capture and despite the horrific abuse he endured, the dad is thought to still be alive in Gaza.

However, the fate of his family remains unclear.

Since October 7, Hamas and Israel have engaged in violent war that’s seen horrendous death tolls on both sides.

Some of the hostages that Hamas took during their attack have been released as part of a prisoner exchange, yet many remain under their control.

Some have even failed to make it out alive after dying in captivity, yet Israel remains certain that around 130 remain in Gaza.

Included in that number, of course, is the Bibas family, despite Hamas’s military wing previously claiming that Kfir, Ariel and Shiri had been killed in an Israeli airstrike in November.

These claims were never verified, however, and their fate remains unknown.

In February, Baby Kfir was seen alive in Gaza for the first time in a haunting video taken hours after his kidnap.

CCTV footage shared by the IDF shows the one-year-old, his brother Ariel and mum Shiri being taken by Hamas in eastern Khan Younis.

It was believed that the mother and her two children had been taken by a Palestinian group separate from Hamas, possibly the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

But their status plunged into doubt once more when Israel later attacked Khan Younis in its mission to wipe out Hamas.

One source of hope came from Nili Margalit, a hostage who spent 50 days in Hamas captivity before being released.

She revealed that she was with Yarden when Hamas told him his family had been killed.

Not long after their kidnap, it was feared that Kfir was being held captive as a “trophy” after Hamas allegedly traded him to other terrorists.

The baby boy’s aunt, Ofri Bibas, begged for his immediate release ahead of the last day of November’s ceasefire.
