The video was taken at the Nova Music Festival, an outdoor, all-night music festival held in rural southern Israel. Hundreds of people were present at the event when Hamas forces ominously appeared out of the clouds.
Previous videos on social media showed hundreds of attendees fleeing the scene amid chaos, Insider previously reported.
Footage has also surfaced of Hamas forces taking a festival attendee hostage. One video shows 25-year-old Noa Argamani begging her captors not to kill her as they drove her into Gaza, Insider previously reported.
Israeli officials have yet to confirm how many people died, were injured, or were taken hostage during the attack on the festival.
Israeli officials said about 600 Israelis have so far been killed since Hamas, a political and military group that controls Gaza, launched a surprise attack on Saturday morning. Palestinian groups said about 370 people in Gaza have so far been killed in the Israeli counterattack.
