The death toll at an Israeli music festival hard-hit by the Hamas invasion of October 7th rose sharply over the weekend, after additional remains found near the scene of the festival were linked to the massacre.
According to Israel’s National Insurance Institute, at least 350 party-goers at the Supernova music festival outside Re’im were slaughtered on the morning of October 7th.
That marks an increase of 90, from the previous figure released by the NII of 260.
Authorities said the number of dead at the Supernova festival could rise again, as forensics teams make progress is separating and identifying the remains of victims whose bodies were mutilated and torched by the terrorists during the Gaza invasion last month.
The surge in the death toll at the music festival comes after dozens of bodies found shot and torched inside their cars were linked to party-goers listed as missing on October 7th.
It is believed the victims had fled the music festival, only to be slaughtered by terrorists operating on Israeli roads. The victims cars and remains were then set on fire.
Forty revelers from the Supernova festival were also taken captive to Gaza, authorities say.
A total of 870 of the over 1,200 Israelis who are believed to have been murdered on October 7th have been positively identified thus far.
Search and rescue workers are continuing their efforts to locate additional bodies in the Gaza frontier area, as forensics teams – including archaeologists volunteering to help identify the remains – work to sift through the fragmentary remains of victims burned on October 7th.
