Newly aired recordings of paramedic Amit Mann renew push to let families access Oct. 7 records
The recordings prompted her sister, Haviva Mann Izikson, to renew an appeal for a centralized system to ensure other families are not left searching for similar records
Three years after paramedic Amit Mann, 22, lost her life to Hamas in Kibbutz Be'er Sheva during the Oct. 7 terror attack, newly released recordings of her final emergency calls have reignited calls for families to have easier access to records from that day. The recordings, featured by Channel 12, reveal the harrowing reality of Amit's final hours, detailing her desperate pleas for help as the terrorists surrounded the dental clinic where she was providing medical care.
Her sister, Haviva Mann Izikson, who was urging for a centralized system to store and share such critical information, emphasized the importance of these recordings in helping other families find closure. The family's initial knowledge of only four calls to emergency services was expanded after the state agency Magen David Adom provided information on seven calls, revealing the extent of Amit's tireless care despite the growing danger.
Mann Izikson expressed deep sorrow at hearing the final call where Amit, aware of the terrorists' presence, still tried to find help for the wounded, eventually making a final desperate plea for assistance as the terrorists entered the clinic. The new recordings have brought to light the full extent of Amit's bravery and her continued dedication to caring for others even in the face of unimaginable horror.
