The Israeli rescue service Zaka says its paramedics removed more than 260 bodies from a music festival that came under attack by Hamas militants.

The total figure of bodies found is expected to be higher, as other paramedic teams were also working in the area and Zaka added that the bodies “haven’t all been collected yet”.

Early on Saturday morning, Hamas targeted Nova music festival, a techno rave in the desert near the border with Gaza.

Videos shared on social media and by Israeli news outlets showed dozens of festival-goers running through an open field as gunshots rang out. Many hid in nearby fruit orchards or were gunned down as they fled.

    The us doesn’t hold Mexico or Mexicans in an open air concentration camp we regularly demolish buildings in with war munitions for simple allegation with no due process.

    I’m going to bet it’s going to come out that this is essentially Iran and other countries sending mercs to act as Hamas just as the last major offensive was.

      The native Americans would beg to differ about how the United States treated the people who were here before them.

          Shitty treatment? They were genocided and those that survived were pushed into little strips of leftover land. Hundreds of millions of colonists are happily living on the stolen land with plenty of excuses not to leave.

            What part of I’m aware are you confused about. Moreover you’re arguing but you clearly don’t have a point, please get to it.

              Well you seem to be claiming the the analogy of the US retaliating in a no holds barred style against a Mexican attack should not be made, because the US hasn’t acted as bad to warrant such an attack. But that is of course beside the point itself as the above poster stated.

              The US has done a lot worse than Israel. They annihilated more than 95% of the natives ffs. 5 million people.

              Would there be much support if people of Native American ancestry attacked a music festival and killed 500?

      True. The concentration camps on and near the US-Mexican border aren’t open air.

      There was already an article out that said Iran helped hamas.

      Tehran is saying they didn’t do it. But articles from wsj and the like have said they did help.

      Can you link where that was determined to be the case in their last offensive? Would genuinely like to read this if true.
