I’m poring through sick Hamas murder videos for any sign of my missing friend Shani Louk – the torment is intense
A DEVASTATED friend of Shani Louk revealed he has been digging through sick Hamas murder footage for any signs she is alive after she was kidnapped by the brutal terrorists.
Raz Yadai Gantz, 30, has been searching for the German-Israeli online after her crumpled, semi-naked body she was last seen being paraded around naked and spat on in Gaza.
Shani had been attending the Supernova music festival in south Israel on October 7 when Hamas launched their initial horror attack on the unsuspecting country.
The festival was one of the first sites attacked when the Palestinian militant group stormed across the border with paragliders and armed soldiers.
"Only two weeks ago I was sitting with her in her apartment," he told .
Now, Raz has been forced to take heartbreaking measures as he clings to the hope that abducted Shani is still alive.

The torment of not knowing about Shani's current status has caused Raz and his friends to begin poring through horrifying footage of Hamas' attacks in the off-chance they might spot her and others they know.
“Can you believe it? We did that. And we saw friends. Lying dead," he said.
At least 260 attendees were massacred at the event as hundreds of others still remain missing - with many, like Shani, thought to have been kidnapped and taken into Gaza as hostages.
Witnesses said the Palestinian militants cut the power and opened fire - with shocking footage showing terrified ravers fleeing the site.

The 22-year-old is believed to be among 150 hostages being held captive in several locations across the Gaza Strip.
Raz is not alone in the continued hunt for Shani, as her grandmother Nicole Louk recently told Fench media she believed: "Shani is alive, but badly injured in the head".
The elderly woman even revealed she would be willing to go to Gaza herself to locate Shani and rescue her from the bloodied hands of the Hamas militants.
"If you need me… if I can go to her… I ask you to do everything possible. I want to be next to her," she said.
Her mother, Ricarda Louk, is also holding onto the hope that she will soon hear from her daughter.
Ricarda told : "The video looks very bad but I still have hope. I hope she's still alive somewhere.
"We don't have anything else to hope for. We're trying to believe."
The family was able to identify her by her distinctive tattoos and black and blonde dreadlocked hair.
Meanwhile, a chilling rant was sent from the phone of Shani's missing boyfriend, Orión Hernández Radoux, 30, amid fears he too has been abducted by Hamas terrorists.
Harrowing messages written in Arabic were sent from the dad's phone as his family desperately tried to find out what had happened to him.
Sick texts seen by The Sun say "I spit on you" and "God damn you".
They also vow to "liberate Palestine" and make it "free of Zionists".
Raz is also sifting through the grisly footage for any signs of his friend Noa Argamani after she was dragged away on a motorcycle by Hamas terrorists.
In harrowing footage, the 25-year-old could be heard screaming "Don't kill me" before she disappeared from the music festival.
There appears to be more footage of her, being held in an unknown location, circulating online since the abduction - giving her friend hope that she is still alive.
"We lost contact when she was taken. It was her birthday two days ago," said Raz.
His close friend, Naor Levi was also tragically murdered at Supernova.
Levi was working as a DJ at the festival, and was described by Raz as "a great artist, intelligent – a light on earth".
Raz revealed that he was initially planning on attending the festival, but backed out at the last minute in an unconscious decision that ultimately saved his life.
But he fears that the lives of the revellers who survived the horror massacre may never be the same again.
"Not for anyone who was there and survived. That anyone survived is a miracle as no one came to help for hours," he said.
It comes after one partygoer, Noa Berr, told The Sun how she cheated death during the terrifying Hamas festival storm.
The 29-year-old miraculously escaped the killers in her jeep alongside three strangers and a DJ.
"I was so scared. There was a terrorist straight ahead, shooting like crazy with murder in his eyes,"; she said.
“In about ten seconds I saw more death than ever in my life. I reversed at speed and span the car around".
At least 1,000 Israelis were killed in Hamas' initial assault at Supernova music festival - with the latest figures stating that the grisly war has now claimed at least 2,400 lives on both sides.
The attack, the deadliest assault in the country's 75-year history, followed two years of subterfuge by Hamas that involved keeping its military plans under wraps.
