A new report by the Gaza Division has revealed that on October 7, 6,000 individuals infiltrated Israel, doubling the previously estimated number of 3,000. Among these infiltrators, 3,800 were identified as trained and armed Hamas Nukhba terrorists, while the remaining 2,200 were Gazan civilians. This breach of the border fence between Gaza and Israel led to a massacre and hostage-taking, involving brutal acts of violence against Jews, Muslims, Druze, and Christians. The report highlights the significant scale of the infiltration and the severe impact on the affected communities.
