The newly emerged video captures the heroic act of an Israeli farmer saving about 120 people from a Hamas attack on a music festival — as he drove back and forth through a littered road while being attacked by terrorists.
Oz Davidian, who lives in Maslul, made about 20 trips with his truck to rescue as many survivors as possible from the Supernova festival, where about 260 people were slaughtered on October 7, the Times of Israel reported.
Dashcam recording published by Channel 13 shows Davidian speeding past crushed vehicles and bodies along the roughly 10-mile route between Kibbutz Re’im, Maslul and neighboring Partish as he takes a different route each time.
“Terrorists! Be careful!” he shouted to his passengers at one point.
Davidian recounted a horrifying encounter he had along the way when he saw two people next to the dead body of an IDF soldier and he mistook them for Israelis.

“I thought, ‘Great, there are paramedics and soldiers,’ and I asked one of them what was going on, and before he could answer me, I realized that they might be terrorists,” he said, according to the outlet.
“I called him in Arabic, and asked, ‘Are they dead, is anyone injured?’ and he answered, and then suddenly I understood that he was a terrorist and he understood that I was Jewish,” Davidian said.
The video shows the chilling moment he realizes and hits the gas as gunfire erupts behind him.

“By some miracle, none of them hit the car,” Davidian told Channel 13. “They were spraying bullets all over the place. You can’t imagine the level of evil. They were shooting at everything that moved.”
He also said he witnessed terrorists raping women.
“One raped, the other shot, protected the former, saw him rape. You see piles of bodies, one on top of the other, as if they were together and just slaughtered and fell on top of each other in the shooting,” he said.
At one point, Davidian rescued an IDF reservist who had been at the festival and guided him to where people were believed to be hiding during the massacre.

He said that when they got to Route 232, they saw “hundreds of dead bodies everywhere, on the road and in the fields” and “a lot of cars, some on fire, some with lights flashing and dead bodies with gunshot wounds in the cars .”
Davidian also showed a piece of paper on which he and the officer wrote down the names of all the rescued people, whom they were allowed to call home to tell their families that they were alive.

A young woman he saved despite thinking she might be from Israel’s Shin Bet security service.
“I said to him, ‘Why?’ and he said, ‘Look around you, there’s nobody here, nobody, we’ve been stuck here for hours, and there’s nobody. You’re the only one who came,’” he said.
During his daring mission, Davidian’s wife and four children were cradled in their shelter.

“When you see hundreds of young people, dead and wounded and fleeing to the fields and terrorists shooting in every direction, you put everything to one side, fear, family, and you go to get them out,” he said.
His daughter Oriah summed up her reaction to his achievement by saying: “He’s always been my hero.”
