She has said that when the attack happened, I was living in a kibbutz called Nir Oz and terrorists also attacked it. Terrorists entered my house. And they wanted to know where the rest of my family was. I told him that there is no point in talking to me because I don't know your language. You are speaking in Arabic and I don't know Hebrew very well. I am originally from Argentina and can only speak in Spanish.

Esther Cuneo continues that, I was asked by the terrorists where Argentina is located? Then I asked them in broken Hebrew, Spanish language and gestures, do you watch football? Then one of the terrorists replied that I like football...then I explained to him that I am from the same country where Messi lives..On hearing this one of the terrorists put his assault rifle in my lap and the other terrorist took a selfie. and after that they left my house.
