(New York Post) Ronny Reyes - At least 260 people were killed in a "massacre" at an Israeli music fest on Saturday, with Israeli officers being blown away while acting as human shields and hostages having their legs shot off so they couldn't run, survivors say. One photo shows scores of bodies in a tent at the music festival. "50 terrorists arrived at the rave site in vans, dressed in military uniforms," an Israeli woman, Ortel, told Israel's Channel 12. Raziel Tamir told public radio, "When I went outside my tent, I saw a crazy number of bodies, and terrorists running and firing everywhere, throwing grenades." Tamir said he and 100 others were spared when Israeli soldiers used their bodies as human shields to protect those lying on the ground trying to avoid incoming gunfire and explosions. "The soldiers protected us with their bodies, and we saw them falling before our eyes," he said. Those who fled for the woods were spared an immediate ambush by Hamas in the parking lot. "People tried to run to their cars, but the terrorists waited and slaughtered them as they tried to get into their cars and escape." "It was a planned ambush," said Yaniv, an emergency responder. "As people came out of the emergency exits, squads of terrorists were waiting for them there and just started picking them off." He said his entire medic team was wiped out, "each one in a different place and at a different time....They killed the wounded we treated."
