The Nova community organization has discovered that proceeds from an upcoming Boy George concert in Israel will not be transferred to survivors of the Supernova music festival massacre, contrary to initial promises. Information obtained by N12 reveals that no portion of the profits will reach the survivors as organizers had pledged.
The "Nova Community Tribe" association expressed outrage, stating that the event was never coordinated with them and that their name and slogan are being used without permission for commercial promotion. They were reportedly alerted to the concert announcement just one day after memorial ceremonies for the October 7th massacre.
In a sharp statement, the Nova festival producers and the association declared that the event was not coordinated with any of their representatives and that no one involved in organizing the concert had contacted them. They emphasized their lack of familiarity with or involvement in the initiative.
The production team for the concert has stated that the matter is under review and is being handled with all relevant parties.
