A barman at the Nova festival during Saturday's Hamas attack has described the shocking scenes that occurred.
Thousands of young people had signed up for the festival beforehand, but they weren't told of the exact location until only a few hours before.Peleg Orev said the festival was amazing up until the moment when everything changed. “Rockets started firing at us, we thought it was a normal rocket attack,” he told Sky News Australia.
“The moment we actually realised that stuff was different this time was when we understood the fence had been breached and they were evacuating everybody out of the festival area. “All of the main roads were completely blocked by terrorists who were controlling them and shooting at people indiscriminately.”
