The Nova Party Massacre

On October 7th, the Supernova Music Festival near Kibbutz Re'im in the Gaza envelope, turned into a bloodbath following Hamas' attack. What was supposed to be a festival celebrating “friends, love, and infinite freedom”, became the largest terror attack at a festival in the world's history. As the sun rose, rockets and sirens were heard as heavily armed Hamas terrorists in pick-up trucks, motorized paragliders, and motorcycles, indiscriminately fired at the crowds of partygoers.

Roughly 360 people were murdered and 40 people were kidnapped from the festival and taken to Gaza. This horrifying attack turned a peaceful festival into a tragic scene of terror, kidnapping, rape, and murder. Below are some hard-to-watch scenes from the massacre, all confirmed and validated to be authentic.

As the footage above shows, many young people who tried to flee the simultaneous rocket attacks and terrorist infiltration were murdered, while others who managed to reach bomb shelters were murdered and/or kidnapped in and from the shelters. Survivors who witnessed the atrocities reported seeing men, women, and corpses being violently mutilated, maimed, and raped by the Hamas terrorists.

The Supernova party was an outdoor, weekend-long trance music festival near Kibbutz Re’im in southern Israel. The original location of the festival in a different part of southern Israel could not host the event, and therefore the festival organizers changed the location to Re’im just two days before the festival.

Popular trance artists from around the world including Man with No Name and Astral Projection were part of the festival line-up. The festival included three different stages, a concession area with food and a bar, and a camping area. Over 3,500 people from Israel and around the world between the ages of 20-40 attended the festival. Although the event was guarded with security guards and police officers, over 360 festival attendees were murdered and over 40 people were kidnapped by Hamas terrorists. Some partygoers remain in Hamas captivity.
