A British citizen is among dozens of festival attendees who are missing, kidnapped or presumed dead

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.

    It’s a grassroots festival, it’s not some richman party like burning man.

    Keep talking out of your ass though.

      So it was free? No $3 bottles of water? Lol, you must be pretty ignorant to the world around you.

      And people didn’t travel from Germany to go there?

      I’d feel more sympathetic for them if they spent that money helping Palestinians instead of using them as an excuse to party.

      Keep defending rich people feeling good about themselves by doing nothing of value. You seem like the kind of guy who doesn’t understand people only have excessive wealth for events like this because others live in squalor.

        What the fucking hell are you talking about? A party costing money to attend doesn’t make it an exclusive event, and a persons choice to travel to a party, assuming that was the exclusive reason, makes that their own personal choice. You’re jumping from one braindead assumption to another to arrive at absolutely wild conclusions.

          Lol, I can tell you’re innocent to the world around you.

          persons choice to travel to a party

          Really? It has nothing to do with wealth? Then I guess the Palestinians could’ve attended this event as guests of honor.

          Lol, it never ceases to amaze me how ignorant you people are yet think you’re knowledgeable. Give it a few more years, a bit more life experience, and you’ll start to realize that money runs world. If it takes you longer than that, then good luck.

          I’m gonna block you now because you don’t seem to have anything of value to say. Just trying to bury your head in the sand and mine along with it, lol.
