Israeli soldiers capture Palestinian militant at music festival massacre<\/h3>\n

The mother of an Israeli woman killed by Hamas militants earlier this month is urging people to “wake up” about the terrorists\u2019 support amid ongoing protests across the country.<\/p>\n

Hannie Ricardo, 58, lost her daughter, Oriya, during Hamas\u2019 attack at the Supernova music festival in the Negev desert in Israel on October 7.<\/p>\n

Ricardo, a former lecturer at New York\u2019s Yeshiva University, said she was supposed to move into a new apartment in New York City last Sunday, when her daughter was supposed to visit.<\/p>\n

Ricardo told Fox News: \u201cBut instead of that, I buried my kid on Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, she is telling Americans to be careful: \u201cI turned New York into my home. I made a lot of Americans my friends. Now, I worry for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The mother immediately halted her studies after receiving word that Oriya, 26, was missing in the wake of Hamas\u2019 brutal attack.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cThe moment I heard there was an attack, I took my phone and saw her message.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oriya\u2019s final text to her mother read: \u201cMom, I love you so much.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ricardo said: \u201cI tried to call back, but, of course, it was too late. She never answered my calls. I thought she was hiding, and she put [her phone] on silent mode.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oriya was an unsuspecting attendee at the music festival two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Haunting videos show festival-goers dancing before recognizing the sound of gunfire as they were under siege by Hamas militants shooting from trucks and vans.<\/p>\n

At least 260 civilians were killed, making the event among the worst civilian mass casualty incidents in Israeli history.<\/p>\n

Ricardo said: \u201cThe human vocabulary doesn\u2019t have a word yet to describe this kind of massacre.\u201d<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on October 8 that Israel was at war with Hamas.<\/p>\n

On the same day, Ricardo flew to Israel, where she reported Oriya missing and provided authorities with a sample of her DNA.<\/p>\n
