A survivor of the music festival attack in Israel and a survivor from a kibbutz told their stories in Zurich on Monday. They will perform at a rally in the evening.
The resident of the kibbutz told how he had to fight a terrorist for the doorknob. Armed only with a knife and dressed in his underwear, he had entrenched himself with his family.
The young woman was at the music festival in southern Israel with four friends. On the run, they hid in a small bunker. Terrorists kept coming in and shooting at people, "you couldn't see the ground anymore, there were dead bodies everywhere," she said.
The two Israelis came to Zurich at the invitation of four private individuals. They had already organized a rally in October with around 1500 participants. They also wanted to draw attention to anti-Semitism in Switzerland.
