IDF was tracking Mohammed Deif when Hamas attacked on October 7
Original: IDF was distracted by tracking, trying to kill Mohammed Deif on Oct. 7
According to a Jerusalem Post report, the Israeli military was focused on tracking and attempting to kill Hamas commander Mohammed Deif at the moment Hamas launched its October 7 assault on Israel. The claim suggests this pursuit diverted attention and resources, contributing to the failures that allowed the surprise attack to inflict heavy casualties.
Why now: It fuels ongoing debate in Israel over the intelligence and military failures that preceded the October 7 Hamas attack.
