Description
Israeli soldier Ephraim Mordechayev says he witnessed Hamas attackers firing "RPG missiles into groups of 20 civilians" at a dance festival held in southern Israel over the weekend. Thousands of music-lovers had danced through the night at the Supernova festival in a remote area of southern Israel near the border with the Gaza Strip. But the rave turned to tragedy at dawn on Saturday when more than 1,000 Hamas militants crossed the Gaza border into Israel and overran frontier communities under the cover of a barrage of rocket fire. Some 250 young Israeli and foreign party-goers are believed to have been gunned down by the Hamas militants. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
