KIBBUTZ NAHAL OZ, Israel – An Israeli organization helping prevent worldwide food shortages shifted gears October 7th, after Hamas targeted Israel’s farmers in the Gaza perimeter with death and destruction. Today, farmers are planning to make the desert bloom again.
Nahal Oz sits less than a half mile from the Gaza border. On October 7th, Hamas terrorists killed 15 people here, including the head of security. Nine others were kidnapped.
The terrorists also chose another major target: the productive farms of the Gaza perimeter.
Moran Friebach's property was one of the targets. "Why they bothered to burn this tractor, this 1.5 million-shekel tractor? Why they bothered to burn all our irrigation equipment?," Friebach asked.
Agriculture in the Negev region of Israel is important to the nation's food security. Some 70 percent of Israel's vegetable and 20 percent of the fruit are grown here. That is why the terrorists targeted agriculture on October 7th.
