How could the Palestinian movement carry out such a sophisticated attack? Decryption.
A surprise, lightning and massive intrusion. How were the men of Hamas able to outflank the Israeli army? The security barrier between Gaza and Israel was deemed impassable. 65 km of fortifications, highly technological. The wall is lined with a fence, overlooked by watchtowers equipped with radars and cameras. They were the first targets of Hamas on Saturday October 7. Using drones, they neutralized all surveillance devices.
The myth of an impenetrable Israeli territory collapsed
Using rocket launchers, fighters from Gaza opened a breach in the concrete wall and entered Israel. They then opened fire, and took positions of Israeli tanks. The operation was launched at dawn, during a Jewish holiday. Why didn’t the Israeli army immediately repel the offensive? Israeli forces had been sent as reinforcements to the West Bank. The authorities do not give any figures on their deployment today.
In Gaza, in the wake of the first intrusions of the first Hamas fighters, hundreds of others rushed through the arches. On foot, on motorbikes, they stormed Israeli territory, others brought down the barriers with bulldozers. In a few hours, the myth of an impenetrable Israeli territory collapsed.
