A WEEPING mum told last night how she listened helplessly as Hamas savages kidnapped her young daughter and elderly mother.
Galit Dan, 53, was five miles away when terrified Noya, 12, whispered in her last message: “Help me.”
The youngster and her 80-year-old nan are believed to be held hostage in Gaza.
Terrorists from Hamas also reportedly beheaded babies in a barbaric rampage through a nearby Israeli village which left 40 youngsters dead.
Last night, farmer’s wife Galit told how she waved Noya off for a sleepover with the girl’s gran Carmela hours before Hamas attacked.
As shootings and explosions erupted near to the Gaza border on Saturday morning, Galit fled to a fortified panic room at their home with Noya’s stepdad and her other daughter Tomal, nine.
Noya and her nan did the same and they texted each other in darkness for hours, too terrified to speak.
Then, heartbreakingly, Noya sobbed in a whispered last voice message: “Mummy I’m scared. There are people in the house — help me.”
Nothing has been heard of her or her gran since and they are not among around 20 bodies identified in the kibbutz — or small farming community — of Nir Oz.
Instead, they are feared to be with 150-plus hostages taken to Gaza bunkers, threatened with execution on video by Hamas.
Galit, husband Inon Ilan and Tomal were rescued after 22 hours at their home in the settlement of Kibbutz Kissufim.
Galit, evacuated to a Dead Sea resort hotel, told The Sun last night: “The pain is indescribable.
“My little girl went for a sleepover with her granny and was messaging us as these animals came for them.
“Our best hope now is that they have been kidnapped and will somehow survive.
“I am desperate to see my beautiful daughter home and beg anyone with power to do whatever they can.
“I am living every parent’s nightmare — every parent in the world will feel our pain.”
Galit fought back tears as she told how Noya was a high-functioning autistic child distressed by noise.
Her stepfather Inon, 55, said: “Noya is a very sweet, very funny, very clever little girl — but she is also extremely sensitive because of her autism.
“It was heartbreaking hearing her last voice message begging for help when we were so powerless and surrounded by men trying to kill us.
“I don’t know how she will be coping but I just hope she is still with her granny and that she is doing her best to protect her.
“But Carmela is 80 years old and vulnerable herself.
“What do they hope to achieve by doing this to innocent helpless people?”
He told how they had fled into the panic room — built into all properties in the area — after sirens sounded early on Saturday.
Inon recalled: “We heard shooting then explosions and could hear the Hamas soldiers shouting in Arabic ‘Slaughter the Jews’.
“None of us spoke and we were left in total darkness when the power went off.
“Then they came in the house and tried the door of our room, but couldn’t get in.”
Meanwhile, another villager Shmuel Harel, 33, said Hamas gunmen shot his 90-year-old grandmother Jina Semiaitz twice in the head.
He went on: “Then they went to her 71-year-old cousin, Ofer Ron, and shot him too in exactly the same way.
“These are the new Nazis.
“This was a Holocaust.”
Columns of Israeli tanks were massing around Gaza last night as Hamas rockets continued to blast Tel Aviv.
Peace activist Gershon Baskin — who helped formulate a 2011 deal with Hamas — warned: “Israel won’t negotiate this time.”
