Oct. 7 survivor: How name dropping Messi saved this grandma from Hamas

It was the morning of Oct. 7 and Hamas was carrying out its killing spree in Israeli communities near the Gaza border, including in Kibbutz Nir Oz, where 90-year-old Esther Cuño, who was born in Argentina, was living.

"I’m from where Messi is from," she told the two masked intruders in a mix of broken Hebrew and Spanish which led to one of the most surreal photos from the rampage, and presumably, saved her life.

She spoke about the horrifying encounter in a new documentary about the Hamas rampage that focuses on the Latino-Israeli community called "Voces Del 7 De Octubre - Latino Stories of Survival."
