The dad of an Israeli-American festival goer tracked his daughter’s iPhone to discover how and where she met her harrowing death at the hands of Hamas gunmen.
Danielle Waldman, 24, and her boyfriend Noam Shai, who had met in the military and planned to get married, were missing in the days after the horrific attacks at the Israeli Supernova music festival.
Her anxious father, Eyal Waldman, had been holding onto the hope that his young daughter had only been held captive by the terror group and was not killed. On Wednesday he received the heartbreaking news that she and her boyfriend were amongst the 260 other innocent festival goers that were killed by the terrorists.
Danielle’s dad, who is the founder of Mellanox – an Israeli-American supplier of computer networking products, used ‘find my iPhone’ to track his daughter’s devices after learning of her death.
He discovered her wrecked car where it had been stranded after Danielle and her boyfriend along with several other festival goers had tried to escape the atrocious Hamas attacks.

Eyal Waldman spoke to CNN about the death of his 24-year-old daughter, who was murdered alongside her boyfriend of six years at the Nova Festival during the Hamas attacks.
After tracking his daughter’s iPhone and Apple watch he went down south with his friend, which is where they found the car that his daughter was in as she tried to make her escape from the terror group.
They discovered that his daughter and her boyfriend along with a few others attempted to flee the attacks in a white Toyota hatchback, but that they were allegedly cornered by terrorists and executed with AK assault rifles.
Waldman said: ‘I have seen exactly how she was murdered from two directions by at least three to five people that had attacked it.
‘From the shells that we have found, there were at least three guns that were shooting at the car.’
Waldman spoke to i24NEWS – an Israeli news station – about his daughter: ‘Danielle was born in California, in the United States. She was the happiest kid ever and everyone really loved her.’
‘She loved everybody.’
‘Noam grew here in Israel and is a real man. They met in the army and planned to spend all of their lives together.’
He said: ‘Danielle and went to the festival of peace and love in the south district of Israel. They went with thousands of kids to celebrate life, to celebrate love.’
On Saturday morning they were attacked and murdered and slaughtered and raped and burned by the Islamic Jihad, by the Hamas, and by the civilians of Gaza wo entered Israel and penetrated more than 24 villages and cities in the South district of Israel.’
Waldman shared that his daughter had told him that she planned to marry her long-term boyfriend and that the couple had just moved into an apartment together.
The number of Americans killed by Hamas terrorists in Israel has now reached at least 27, National Security Council’s Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby revealed on Thursday.

The death toll of Israelis, Palestinians and Americans continues to rise five days after Hamas attacked the Jewish state.
But Kirby assured there are only a ‘handful’ of Americans thought to be held in hostage in Gaza currently.
Arriving in Tel Aviv, Israel on Thursday morning, Secretary of State Antony Blinken revealed that at least 25 Americans were killed in the Hamas attacks.
By later in the day, two more were confirmed dead by Kirby during the White House press briefing.
Among the Americans killed was Oriya Ricardo, 26, who was gunned down on Saturday at the Supernova festival along with more than 250 others. Her body was identified yesterday, after an agonizing three-day wait for her family.
Her New York City-resident mother, Hannie, appeared on MSNBC last night to pay tribute to her.
‘It’s pretty hard to speak about her. She was as her name is, light, she brought light everywhere she came.
‘A very happy girl, loved to party, was always the center of everything. She was the source of power of my life.
