Times Of Israel: 1,000 troops were in Sderot on Oct. 7, when they were urgently needed elsewhere, probe finds
On October 7, 2023, 41 Palestinian terrorists attacked the southern Israeli city of Sderot, resulting in the deaths of 53 individuals, including 37 civilians and 11 police officers. An investigation by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) revealed that the military failed to adequately prepare for such an assault, which involved a coordinated attack by nearly 5,600 Hamas fighters across multiple locations.
The IDF probe highlighted the bravery of local police and soldiers but concluded that a lack of proper security measures and warning systems contributed to the high casualty rate. Many residents were unaware of the threat due to the timing of the attack coinciding with the Sabbath. The investigation recommended reorganizing military deployment to better respond to future threats.
