The Hamas monsters were grilled by intelligence officers and could face the death penalty if the horrific acts are found to have violated the international rules of war.

They would be the first executed in Israel since Nazi Adolf Eichmann was hanged for war crimes in 1962.

Sources say the number of Hamas jihadists seized on October 7 could be about 100.

Israel law officials are considering a special court.

Their former ambassador to the US Michael Oren said: “A Nuremberg-type trial is definitely called for.”

Richard Pater, head of Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre, told The Sun: “The extreme brutality involved in the attacks could lend itself to Nuremberg-type trials or something akin to the trial of Eichmann, to give full public exposure of the Hamas war crimes.”

One captured Hamas terrorist said they were ordered to rape, torture and behead during the bloodbaths at kibbutz communities, a music festival and other sites.

Meanwhile, Israeli hostage Sahar Baruch, 25, has been confirmed dead.

In a video showing his body, Hamas said he died in a failed rescue operation in Gaza. Israel insists he was murdered by his captors.
