Elyakim Libman

Elyakim Shlomo Libman, 23, from Kiryat Arba, worked as a security guard at the Supernova festival. Known by the nickname “Robin Hood,” he was remembered for helping others and putting their needs before his own. During the attack, he stayed behind to help evacuate and rescue festivalgoers rather than immediately fleeing the site.

The body of Elyakim Libman, 24, previously thought to be one of the Israeli hostages held in Gaza, was found recently in the grave of another victim of the October 7 attacks, in Israeli territory. Elyakim was working as a security guard at the Nova Musical Festival, where he managed to assist in the evacuation of many of the partygoers. On Friday, 3 May, the authorities informed the family that Elyakim was murdered during the Hamas' attack on October 7 and his body had been identified.
