Hamas terrorist who paraded Shani Louk's body in Gaza has been killed, says her mother

Hamas terrorist who paraded a German festivalgoer’s body through Gaza has been killed, the victim’s mother has said.

Shani Louk, a 22-year-old Israeli-German dual citizen, was murdered by Hamas at the Nova music festival in southern Israel on Oct 7.

For weeks Louk’s family had been led to believe the tattoo artist, identified by her distinctive body art and dreadlocked hair, was alive but in a hospital in Gaza.

But Israeli officials later revealed she was killed in the Hamas attack after a fragment of her skull was found and identified.

“She was a very happy, lively person,” her mother said in an interview with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, broadcast on Facebook.

“She liked music and dancing and living and she was really enjoying it until the last moment.”
