According to the military, Muhammad Abu Attawi, who served as a Nukbha commander in Hamas’s Bureij Battalion, was also employed by the UN Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA since July 2022. During the October 7 onslaught, Attawi commanded the attack on a bomb shelter near Re’im where partygoers from the Nova festival had fled to. 16 were murdered at concrete shelter and 4 kidnapped, including Hersh Goldberg-Polin.
