The Supernova Sukkot Gathering is the Israeli version of the Paralello Universo psytrance festival in Brazil. It was bustling with more than 3,500 attendees when the attacks resulted in 371 deaths, 40 abductions, and numerous injuries.

Wide Impact of the October 7 Attacks

The violence spread beyond the festival, including an infiltration elsewhere in Israel and a massacre at the Be'eri kibbutz. These events led to devastating retaliatory responses from the Israel Defense Forces.

In a statement following the assault, festival producers expressed their devastation over the incident, describing it as an unspeakable tragedy and a violation of human values. They pledged to stand behind their goal of securing Israel and supporting the victims and their families during this tragic time.
