A survivor of the Hamas festival massacre has revealed how she had to hide under her boyfriend’s body in the back of a shipping container as terrorists crossed the Israeli border and massacred innocent civilians.
Israeli model Noam Mazal Ben-David, 27, was forced to play dead for two hours surrounded by a pile of corpses after her partner David Neman and dozens of others were shot dead in front of her by Hamas terrorists.
She lost blood quickly after being shot in the foot and hip, but knew she had to stay silent to stay alive.
Noam and her boyfriend were among the terrified revelers who fled for their lives as Hamas gunmen chased them on foot at the festival as rockets rained from the sky.
The weekend-long outdoor rave billed as a celebration of “friends, love and infinite freedom” turned into an unimaginable bloodbath when Hamas terrorists stormed the Supernova festival in southern Israel, killing 260 people.

The couple arrived at the festival at 6:30 a.m. on October 7, unaware that it would be a day when Hamas would unleash terror against Israel and slaughter 1,400 Israelis, many of them civilians.
Describing the moment she was told by security to run for her life as terrorists sprayed the festival with bullets, she told the Express: “They surrounded us and just kept shooting nonstop.”
“I heard a girl screaming, “Please don’t take me.” Just leave me alone.” But they kidnapped her anyway. They did terrible, terrible things to her.’
Noam, who was unable to escape in her car because terrorists blocked the exits, recalled how they frantically called family and friends, sharing their whereabouts and begging for help.
She described how one of the revelers who was in the dumpster with them shouted that she had been seen by the gunmen.
“As the Hamas gunmen approached, David took me and threw me at the back of the container and told me to go in as deep as I could and hide. “One of them jumped in and shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’, a bomb exploded and they started firing continuously,” she said.
“It was a game of Russian roulette to see who would get a bullet.”
Noam heartbreakingly revealed how her boyfriend David was shot in the chest while a girl lying on top of her was shot in the shoulder.

At that moment, Noam closed his eyes, expecting never to open them again. She miraculously survived despite being shot in the foot and hip.
The ruthless terrorists had assumed she was dead as she lay among the pile of corpses.
Noam called her family to tell them that David had been killed and admitted to them that she didn’t think she would make it.
The artist was eventually found by the Israeli Defense Forces, who provided her with life-saving assistance.
Noam was one of only four of the 16 who hid in the surviving container.
In the weeks following the festival massacre, grim footage showed Hamas gunmen immediately opening fire on hundreds of terrified Israeli revelers who were forced to run for their lives.
A video shot from a terrorist’s truck shows the rampaging gunmen driving down a street, covered in the bodies of their already killed victims and their bullet-riddled cars, unleashing more horrors that defy imagination.
Here, drawn by the crackle of gunfire before them, the gunmen saw hundreds of screaming youths running across the nearest field to the festival, where they had seen their friends shot dead by Hamas terrorists.

Without hesitation, two gunmen raised their assault rifles and began firing one after the other at the fleeing revelers. Within seconds, dozens of other terrorists jumped out of their pickup trucks and also began firing shots.
Some fired from a truck equipped with machine guns, while a gunman jumped onto the hood of a slain victim’s abandoned car to shoot over the trees at the screaming revelers, picking them off one by one with a hail of bullets.
The sickening sound of the shots lasted for 40 seconds – the terrorists did not let up in their cruelty. The gunmen appear to decide there are no more victims to shoot and then turn back to their trucks before the video cuts out.
The terrorists also released harrowing videos showing the gunmen dragging screaming mothers and their young children to waiting trucks before driving them out of their neighborhood.
Among the videos was one that showed 25-year-old student Noa Argamini screaming “Don’t kill me!” as she was dragged away from the Nova festival by laughing Hamas gunmen. Her whereabouts are unknown.

For more than six hours, thousands of festival-goers hid without help from the Israeli army while Hamas militants fired automatic shots and threw grenades.
Another tragic victim of the festival was Shani Louk, who was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists at the Nova Electronic Festival and paraded in the back of a truck.
For more than three weeks, Ms. Louk’s family prayed that the German-Israeli could be saved from the terrorists.
But Ms Louk’s mother and sister announced last week that she was dead after a bone was found from the base of her skull.
Shocking images after the festival showed abandoned vehicles and tents of revelers who had traveled from far and wide to dance in the desert.
Since Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on Israel that killed 1,400 people and took some 240 hostages, Israel has responded by relentlessly bombing Gaza.
According to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, Tel Aviv’s retaliation, which included a ground attack on the area, killed more than 9,000 people.
The rising death toll since Hamas’ deadly October 7 raids has sparked widespread protests in Britain. Thousands of pro-Palestinian supporters took to the streets in London, Glasgow and Belfast on Saturday to demand a ceasefire.
