Massacre in Israel: Over the weekend, the Palestinian militant group Hamas fired thousands of rockets at Israel and breached the border wall, catching Israeli forces off guard on a holiday.
Video has circulated on social media of atrocities committed by the invaders, including several of Hamas going door-to-door in southern Israel, entering people’s homes, and slaughtering innocent people, including children, as family members are forced to watch. One viral video shows a 25-year-old Israeli woman, Noa Argamani, who was kidnapped by Hamas while attending a music festival.
At that same music festival—Nova, at Kibbutz Re’im in southern Israel—rockets began appearing in the sky around 6:30 a.m., prompting a mass evacuation. But then “four pickup trucks filled with armed militants and gunmen on motorcycles encircled the road leading out of the event venue, which was bottlenecked with cars attempting to flee the area,” per The New Yorker’s Ruth Margalit. “These were executions,” one source who was in attendance told Margalit. “We were like ducks in a firing range.”
