TEL HASHOMER, Israel (Reuters) - Over one desperate and blood-soaked Saturday, Hadar Bachar was transformed from an ordinary 13-year-old girl into the coordinator of her family's fight to survive a Hamas onslaught.
First the gunmen fired through the door, seriously wounding both Hadar's father, Avida, and her 15-year-old brother, Carmel. Eventually, the militants would rupture the reinforced window with explosives and shoot her mother, Dana, through the gap.
“Without a doubt, you think to yourself, 'What does a 13-year-old need this for? What are you exposing her to?' But we were in survival mode and she was, in all honesty, a superstar," her father said. "There's no one like her. She kept her cool. It was almost frightening.”
