An ongoing police investigation into the Hamas massacre of the Re’im music festival on October 7 has updated the death count to 364, which would make up nearly one-third of all of those killed during the onslaught in Israel, Channel 12 reports.
Forty attendees of the festival were taken hostage into Gaza, the investigation finds.
Earlier counts had placed the death count in Re’im at 270.
The security establishment’s current assessment is that Hamas was unaware of the music festival in the lead-up to the massacre, Channel 12 reports.
