Hamas gunmen kill TV anchor's sister in tragic incident at Tribe of Nova Music Festival near Gaza Border
Nova trance music festival near the Gaza Strip border, a 27-year-old Israeli woman, Mapal Adam, met a harrowing end at the hands of Hamas gunmen. Mapal, who had sought shelter beneath a truck, hoping to evade the violence, was eventually discovered by the assailants and killed «execution style.» Her sister, Maayan Adam, a television host, took to Instagram to share the grim details, leaving the family in profound sorrow.
Ma’ayan's Instagram post captured the chilling turn of events, saying, «On Saturday afternoon, in this idyllic setting, Mapal, our baby, hid underneath a truck and pretended as if she were dead.
She held out for hours and didn’t move until terrorists killed her execution style.»
Mapal had been at the festival with her boyfriend, Roey, who sustained back injuries but managed to survive the attack. The couple, deeply in love and recently moved in together, found themselves in the midst of a horrifying assault.
Witnesses described the ordeal as Hamas gunmen stormed the concert area, firing into the crowd and taking hostages.
It's worth noting that Mapal had previously served in the Israeli military. In an Instagram post, she expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to serve her country, saying, «One army, 72 years, 23,816 martyrs.
Thank you for granting me the honor of serving my nation.»
The festival, which had initially been a gathering of music enthusiasts, was suddenly disrupted by the intrusion of Hamas militants. The sounds of music were replaced by the terrifying noise of gunfire as the assailants approached the venue, where hundreds of young partygoers had gathered.
