Eyewitness Account Adds Harrowing Details to the Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An eyewitness from the Universo Paralello Israel attack stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was there when it started. They stopped the music, and we thought those were fireworks, but those were Iron Dome interceptions, and they became extremely frequent. It happened at around 7 AM, which means the majority of the party-goers were partying to meet the sunrise. Lots of young party-goers kidnapped. My friend was driving, and we hadn\u2019t started partying yet, so we were more or less okay and just got the heck out of there about 5-10 minutes before small arms fire started.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another attendee shared a similar story:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMany fell and were injured from the terrorist fire. The terrorists surrounded us. Somehow, we managed to escape the line of fire. They shot at us three times during the escape. There was a cell of four terrorists, then a cell of six.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
