The Netiv HaAsara massacre[2] occurred during the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. Thirty-five Hamas militants, some via paragliders and most via car, attacked Netiv HaAsara, an Israeli moshav close to the border fence. The militants killed 20 people,[3][4][5][6] including in some cases members of the same family. Before the massacre, the moshav was home to approximately 900 residents.[7]
