Sickening Palestinian online videos are providing detailed instructions on how to murder Israeli civilians, the JC can reveal.

The clips — widely shared on Telegram, YouTube, Facebook and other platforms — have been posted amid a wave of terror attacks against Israelis.

One video seen by the JC shows a man demonstrating how to most effectively use a knife to kill an unarmed bystander.

At first, the terrorist instructor, whose face is blurred, holds a small blade in the air. Text on the screen, translated by CAMERA Arabic, tells viewers: “Do not use a kitchen knife or a knife for fruit and cake.”

As he replaces the smaller weapon with a much larger blade, text alongside a green tick says: “One must use a sharp knife.”

The man then demonstrates a series of attacks, showing viewers which methods are likely to kill and which would fail.

Chilling captions on the screen provide more detail on the best way to stab a civilian, including guidance on how to hold the knife, as well as advice that the sharp blade must face outwards rather than inwards.

The would-be killer mimics knifing his target to death while text appears on screen that reads “stabbing in the neck from above,” “stabbing in the abdomen,” “stabbing in the waist from the side,” and “slaying in the neck.”

Much of the footage appears to have been filmed in Gaza, raising fears that Hamas or other terror groups in the enclave are radicalising Palestinians on the West Bank.

Another video, reportedly shared by the Telegram channel of the Hamas affiliated news service Al-Risala, gives instructions on how to carry out a shooting attack.

The clip opens with the voice of Lions’ Den militant Hussam Islim, who says: “By your life and honour, do not let go of the rifle after we [are gone], proceed on the path.”

The young attacker, who was killed during an IDF raid into the West Bank city of Nablus last month, is described as a “martyr and commander”.

Text overlaid on the video tells viewers to scout their target before the attack and plan a “path of movement”.

Would-be terrorists, it says, should distribute roles among themselves, with one driving and others shooting.

Gunmen should approach an Israeli vehicle in an unassuming manner with their weapons concealed, it adds, shoot from a very close range, finish off the target, and withdraw from the area in a “cautious and quick” manner.

The shocking videos come as violence against Israeli civilians continues to mount. Since the beginning of the year, at least 13 Israelis have been killed as well as 70 Palestinians, mostly in counter-terror raids.
