Hundreds of people attend a memorial service at the site of the Nova music festival where over 360 revelers were slaughtered by Hamas terrorists on October 7 last year.
Relatives of the victims of the brutal massacre, as well as some survivors, are in attendance to remember their loved ones and mark one year since the Hamas terror group invaded southern Israel and carried out its savage rampage, murdering, raping and wounding thousands of Israelis, and taking 251 people hostage.
Shimon Buskila, father of Yarden (Jordy) who was murdered at the Nova festival, reads out a prayer he composed for the memory of those slain, the welfare of the soldiers fighting in the war, and the rehabilitation of all those injured on October 7 and since.
Dvir Neeman, whose brother David Neeman was also murdered at the Nova festival, recites a specially written Kaddish prayer for the victims of the massacre.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
