This is the best summary I could come up with:


In December 2021, Israel’s military said a high-tech upgrade to the barrier that had long surrounded the Gaza Strip would protect nearby Israeli residents from the threat of violence from militants.

The video details how Hamas fighters neutralized long-range cameras, sophisticated sensors and remote-control weapons — a tactic known inside the group as the “blinding plan” — to breach the high-tech fence.

By comparing the footage with maps, satellite imagery and other data, reporters pinpointed where the intrusions occurred — from the Erez crossing in the north to Kerem Shalom in the south.

Training videos showing militants attacking mock-ups of Israeli compounds had been posted to social media months earlier and were visible to all.

Videos posted to social media after the attack began showed that Hamas fighters had been training for months on the tactics it used to breach the fence.

Chris Dehghanpoor, Loveday Morris, Shira Rubin, Jon Gerberg, Samuel Granados, Lauren Tierney, Artur Galocha, and Aaron Steckleberg contributed to this report.

Bibi got played, all his goons were in the West Bank.

How do you change leaders during a war cabinet?

No they didn't. When you buy an existential threat it needs to do actual damage in occasion or people lose interest.

Ironic. The IDF was so busy colonizing and terrorizing the West Bank that they had nobody to guard their own country.
