The Full Testimony
Testimony of
Sharon Weisberger
Sharon arrived at the Nova festival as a photographer. The contrast between the feeling of love and connection at the party and the horrors that cut them was sharp. Missiles and interceptions all around. She joins Yehudah, who leaves the main road and travels through the fields. As they drive away, they avoid a group of terrorists and see the horrible evidence of the massacre. Sharon says that she escaped and did not get hurt just by chance. She reflects that she encounters difficulties on the way to healing but is determined to be healed.
