The Full Testimony
Testimony of
Shaked Levi
Shaked and his brother went to the Nova Rave. His brother wandered around enjoying the beautiful sunrise. When it started, they were apart, but miraculously found each other. Shaked promised their mother he would do everything possible to get home safely, a promise that served as his compass. Their survival quest took them to Route 232, hiding in a shelter near Beeri, driving to Alumim, returning to Re’em where they began, hiding in bushes, and running amidst whistling bullets and fleeing people. They were saved thanks to a man from Rahat who let them into his minibus packed with survivors.
