My girlfriend is still missing after Hamas rave massacre…she was last seen covered in blood after terrifying knife chase

A YOUNG Israeli man whose girlfriend was dragged from a bush and snatched by Hamas terrorists at a festival remains optimistic she's still alive.

Graphic design student Inbar Haiman, 27, was last seen on Saturday covered in blood and surrounded by Hamas terrorists after she was kidnapped by the armed militants at the Supernova festival.

The Islamist group's fighters killed more than 280 revellers at the music event alone - and dozens more were abducted.

Inbar's boyfriend Noam Alon, 24, was told The Sun how his girlfriend hid in a bush for hours before being dragged away at knifepoint by Hamas terrorists.

Shocking video later emerged of her being held down by four men.

Despite knowing little about her whereabouts, Noam said the video of Inbar surrounded by terrorists has given him a glimmer of hope that she might be alive.

One week on from the slaughter, he told The Sun: "When we got this video, it wasn’t easy of course - but it was good news, because we knew she was taken to Gaza.

"They are carrying her and we don't know if she’s in a good condition or not - but we believe they wouldn’t be grabbing her, holding her, if she wasn’t alive and in good shape.

"Because they didn’t take any bodies from there.

"There were hundreds of bodies in the party area and they just left everybody there. They didn’t take people who are dead."

Horrified rescuers discovered hundreds of bodies piled up at the site of the festival after Hamas terrorists cut power and opened fire last weekend.

German tattoo artist Shani Louk, 30, was one of many brutally seized by the armed militants.

Harrowing footage showed the terrorists parading her body through the streets.

An estimated 150 soldiers and civilians - including men, women, children, and the elderly - are currently being kept in Gaza by Hamas terrorists.

When footage emerged of his own girlfriend, Noam couldn't bring himself to watch it and his parents shouldered the pain.

He said they were sure it was Inbar in the distressing video because of the distinctive colourful galaxy-print trousers she was wearing.

And while the woman's face was mostly obscured by an emoji, it was visible for a brief moment - injured and bloody.

He is now asking for a "sign of life" from her cruel captors.

Noam told The Sun: "We have to know that she's OK, and we want all the governments to do everything they can to return her and all the other hostages back to us."

The 24-year-old has managed to get some information from two other festival-goers who were with Inbar when she was taken but managed to escape.

They told Noam she ran to open grounds and hid in a bush for several hours before two terrorists spotted her.

One militant wielding a Japanese knife grabbed hold of her and then left to take on another festival-goer.

But she was then kidnapped by two other terrorists on a motorbike.

The last time Noam saw his girlfriend was last Wednesday, when they went camping together in northern Israel.

"On Thursday night, I wrote to her that I was really excited for our adventure together, for our vacation in Egypt," he said.

"And she wrote me back that she's also really excited about it and she's waiting for it as well. And that she loves me.

"It was a Friday morning when she wrote to me, and unfortunately Friday evening she goes to the party, and she didn't return."

It has been an impossible week for Noam who said he struggled to do even the most basic things, like eat or sleep.

He described his girlfriend as an "amazing" person, as well as funny, adventurous, caring, a "true artist", a great designer, and a brilliant friend.

"Put the hostages in the top of their priority. I think this is the most important thing," he urged.

"These are not soldiers, these are women and children and elders. You see the videos, you see the people in the photos.

"These are crimes that you cannot describe."

Noam said he still "strongly believes" he will see Inbar again.

But if he could say anything to her right now, it would be: "I love you and me and everybody else around you are doing everything to return you.

"You are strong. You are the strongest girl that I know and I'm sure that you know it will end and you will be back with us, so stay strong."

To her captors, he asked them to "be kind as much as you can".

He pleaded: "Stay human and take care of the hostages. Make sure they get medical help, and water, food and everything that is needed for a human being.
