Did you know? 🙏🇮🇱🙏💔🙏🇮🇱🙏 Almost 50 survivors of the Nova Festival massacre have committed suicide after being unable to process the trauma; according to a survivor. Nova Festival survivor Ben Shimon spoke today at the Israeli Knesset Parliament at a hearing for the State Audit Commission on the treatment of the survivors of October 7. “Few people know, but there have been almost 50 suicides among the Nova survivors. This number, which was true two months ago, may have increased since.” Shimon went on to describe the mental traumas the survivors were facing: “There are many survivors who had to be forcibly hospitalized due to their psychological state. My friends are not getting out of bed, neither am I.” 364 people lost their lives during the music festival attack.
