Israeli Couple Survived by Pretending to Be Dead

(Ynet News) Raanan Ben-Zur - Adi Naveh survived the horrors at the music festival in Re'im where hundreds were killed. When the Hamas attack started, "We got in the car and fled. We were being shot at....On the road to Kibbutz Be'eri, they were firing at all the cars. It was a massacre. I could see a firing squad and I felt like a sitting duck in a firing range. A bullet hit the car tire and the car exploded. We were thrown into a ditch and we then ran about 50 feet and hid behind a bush." "My husband covered me with leaves and a burnt tire and we prayed. My head was facing the road and I could see everything. I saw them abducting three girls into vans and one onto a motorbike. I saw them making sure they'd killed people in cars, and setting fire to cars with people alive inside. I saw a teenage boy - he looked really young - constantly shooting at anyone escaping." "We played dead. A terrorist trod on my head, shouting 'Allahu Akbar' and then shot and hit my hair. Miraculously, he didn't hit me. He trod on my husband and shot between his legs. There were hundreds of them. They shot anyone passing." "At home, I'm like a ghost. It's like I'm dead. I can't believe we survived. We should have died two hundred times over. I can't get the pictures out of my mind....We're not heroes. The people who died are the heroes."
