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.
A quick scroll of the comments doesn’t provide the answer as to why they thought this music festival was a good idea, especially considering that it’s located at the border near Gaza. Furthermore, how did Israel not see this coming and take extra security measures to protect them?
Don’t worry their next festival is gonna be in the DMZ between North and South Korea, should be a real banger.
