Overview

• The site of the Nova festival, where 364 people were killed and 40 kidnapped during a Hamas attack on October 7, has become a tourist attraction.
• Visitors, both foreigners and Israelis, walk between placards carrying the names and photos of the victims, taking pictures and paying their respects.
• The attack was part of a larger cross-border assault by Hamas, which resulted in 1,200 deaths and 240 kidnappings.
• In response, Israel launched a war against Hamas, leading to the death of over 26,000 Palestinians according to health authorities in Gaza.
• Bereaved families have participated in a tree-planting event at the site, hoping to bring new life to the scene of death and desecration.
