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.
You’re good, and thank you for supporting us. I encourage you to consider serving or entering one of the government jobs - people have this misconception that the military is entirely composed of front-line combat troops, and that just isn’t true. There are plenty of supporting roles, most of which never see a single day of combat or approach within a thousand miles of it. In this day and age with economic insecurity, ours are some of the most secure, if you stay in.
