Rescuers recover more than 260 bodies at music festival attacked by Hamas
independent.co.uk
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.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Hamas the political body that is in control of the Gaza strip?
They sent a military force to go kill civilians. I don't know how much of Israel's motivation is to take the Gaza strip back and move Palestinian civilians around, but killing that many civilians has definitely put Hamas into "fuck around and find out" territory. At the very least I would expect that Israel will not stop until Hamas is no longer a political entity in Gaza.
