During the surprise assault on Israel by Palestinian militant group Hamas Saturday, gunmen opened fire on hundreds of young people during a dance music festival in the southern Israeli kibbutz of Re’im near the Gaza Strip, according to the Associated Press and multiple Israeli media outlets.
“The music stopped and there was a rocket siren,” a young woman called Ortal told Israel’s Channel 12, according to Reuters.
Haaretz, one of Israel’s largest newspapers, described the scene as a “massacre” and a “battlefield,” and reported that terrorists on motorcycles drove into the crowd “opening fire.”
Another party attendee, Esther Borochov, told Reuters that she had to play dead until she was rescued by Israeli soldiers.
Videos showed Israelis racing across vast open fields and taking cover in orchards.
At least 232 people have been killed and 1,697 wounded in Gaza from Israeli counterattacks, the Palestinian Health Ministry reported Saturday.
