Times Of Israel: IDF okayed Nova music festival, but didn’t inform troops deployed at border, probe finds
On October 7, 2023, over 100 Hamas terrorists attacked the Supernova music festival near the Gaza border, resulting in the deadliest terror attack in Israel's history. The assault left 344 civilians and 34 security personnel dead, with 44 attendees abducted. An IDF investigation revealed failures in military preparedness and communication, as troops were unaware of the festival's existence and lacked adequate defenses.
The probe criticized the IDF's handling of the event, noting that no military representative was present to coordinate security with police. Despite prior signs of Hamas activity, the military misjudged the threat level. Families of the victims expressed dissatisfaction with the investigation's findings, calling for a state commission to further examine the events of that day.
