Here’s a condensed version of your story in 200–400 words: — Israel and Hamas have reportedly agreed on the first phase of a peace plan, a hopeful step toward resolving a long-standing conflict. Yet, the lingering consequences of the October 7, 2023 attacks at Israel’s Nova music festival continue to cast a shadow over countless lives. That day, approximately 1,200 people were killed, including over 250 civilians, leaving survivors and families grappling with unimaginable grief. Among the survivors was Roei Shalev, who witnessed the deaths of his girlfriend, Mapal Adam, and best friend, Hili Solomon. In a desperate attempt to protect Mapal, Roei shielded her as bullets tore through the crowd. Tragically, Mapal, 25, was fatally shot while hiding under a truck with Roei. Before her death, she sent a terrified text to her sister: “Don’t tell Mom, I’m scared. There’s a massacre. Bullets are hitting me in the head.” Roei survived by playing dead until the Israeli army arrived, but the trauma left deep emotional scars. Two weeks later, Roei’s mother, devastated by Mapal’s death, took her own life. Tragically, just two years after the massacre, Roei, aged 30, was found dead inside a burning car near Tel Aviv. Days prior, he posted a heartfelt social media message expressing his pain: “I just want this suffering to end. I’m alive, but inside everything is dead.” Friends and family searched frantically before authorities discovered his body. Mapal’s sister, Maayan Adam, shared a photo of Roei and Mapal together, writing, “I hope these two kids are hugging and smiling right now, hearts pressed together again.” The Nova Community Foundation called Roei “a pillar of strength” and emphasized the ongoing mental health struggles survivors face, urging greater awareness and support. The massacre claimed more than 370 lives and left thousands injured or traumatized. Israeli politicians and mental health advocates stress the need for resources to help survivors cope with lasting effects. As Yair Golan, leader of the Democrats party, stated: “Roei could not withstand the pain, but others are still here fighting, coping, trying to live. We must give them all the help we can — so they don’t feel alone.” This tragedy is a stark reminder that the toll of terror extends far beyond the physical violence. — If you want, I can also create a **more emotionally narrative version** that focuses on Roei’s personal story and trauma, making it read more like a feature article. Do you want me to do that?
