A 22-year-old woman who survived the Hamas massacre at the Supernova music festival near Kibbutz Re’im on October 7, 2023, has taken her own life in her apartment, after suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
The family of Shirel Golan, who turned 22 today, says she suffered from post-traumatic symptoms since escaping the terror onslaught, including disassociation and withdrawal, and that she was hospitalized twice.
“If the state had taken care of her, none of this would have happened,” he added.
The Ministry of Welfare and Social Affairs disputed the family’s claims, saying Golan was “recognized and treated in the welfare system even before October 7 and especially after.”
According to reports, Golan had attended the music festival with a group of friends, 11 of whom were killed. READ MORE HERE
