The Full Testimony

Testimony of 

Adam Berdichevsky

Adam Berdeshevsky, an award-winning Paralympic athlete from Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak, awoke Saturday morning with his family to the roar of missile barrages. When the shooting intensified, he locked himself with the family in the safe room. As it got worse, Adam told the children what was happening, said he would not let the terrorists in, and told them that they must keep silent and remain under the beds. Two days later, they were evacuated.
