"He got in one of the buildings and started shooting and throwing grenades, and carried on to the study hall where there were a lot of pupils," said Yona Emmanuel, a resident of Atzmona, which mixes pre-army training with religious study.
During the 15-minute rampage, the militant hurled a grenade into a trailer, incinerating a student in his bunk, and sprayed gunfire into the study hall, before being shot dead by a soldier.
The attacker was identified as Mohammed Farhat, from Gaza City. At 19, he was a year older than his victims.
