An Israeli festival-goer has described the horrific moment Hamas gunmen stormed a dance festival and began opening fire on everyone they saw as people fled for their lives.
Terrified, Gili Yoskovich hid under a tree for three hours as bullets whizzed around her as terrorists opened fire Saturday morning on helpless revelers at a trance music rave that lasted at night near Kibbutz Re’im, near the Gaza Strip.
The young mother described how young people – whose night celebrating the end of the religious holiday of Sukkot had turned into terror – were dying all around her and on the road as Hamas militants fired from tree to tree .
As the gunmen opened fire, Gili ran for her life and hid under a fruit tree in the middle of the field where she stayed until she heard people speaking in Hebrew and was rescued by Israeli soldiers.
“I saw people dying everywhere. I was very quiet. I didn’t cry, I didn’t do anything,” she told the BBC.
A terrified Gili Yoskovich hid under a tree for three hours as Hamas militants opened fire on defenseless festival-goers near Kibbutz Re’im, near the Gaza Strip.
“I was breathing and saying, ‘OK, I’m going to die. It’s okay, breathe, close your eyes.”
Footage has been released showing how festival-goers appeared oblivious to the impending terror floating hundreds of feet above their heads in the distance in footage posted to TikTok.
The footage, shot shortly after sunrise, shows the eagle-eyed cameraman suddenly zooming in on gray dots in the air, which turn out to be Palestinian militants.
Hamas fighters managed to infiltrate Israel essentially undetected by paragliding across the normally heavily guarded border.
Moments later, the dancing stops and terror ensues as festival-goers are forced to run for their lives as armed Hamas fighters begin shooting and kidnapping everyone in their path.
The revelers were surrounded as terrorists came out of them “from four or five places”.
Gili said: “They were going tree by tree and shooting. Everywhere. On both sides. I saw people dying everywhere. I was very quiet. I didn’t cry, I didn’t do anything.
