The answer is everyone who should have called those drones was already dead,\u201d said Israeli tech journalist Assaf Gilead.
\nThe attack also sent shockwaves through the defense establishment in Washington and Europe, not least because Israel has become a key supplier of security and defense technology across the West.<\/p>\n
Within Israel, failure of the military\u2019s security technology fed into a broader sense of abandonment among citizens and victims, who called into news programs and texted family for help while gunmen rampaged for hours, unimpeded by Israeli soldiers.”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
“the group that both the U.S. and Israel regard as a terrorist organization managed to use sheer numbers to overpower Israeli radar, cameras and automatic machine guns, said retired Israeli Brigadier General Amir Avivi. First, Hamas launched thousands of rockets, and then its militants moved in.<\/p>\n
They analyzed the places which are not covered by machine guns and they simply went to the places that were a bit less exposed,\u201d Avivi said. \u201cThey also attacked cameras, [surveillance] headquarters, they used drones to throw grenades at tanks. It was multiple attacks on army positions and towards the 22 towns surrounding the Gaza Strip.\u201d<\/p>\n
Once fighters were inside Israel, they attacked the Re\u2019im base where drone and surveillance operators were concentrated. Graphic footage posted online by Hamas showed masked gunmen firing into the base, and depicted Israeli soldiers who appeared to be shot dead.” <\/p>\n

“\u201cPerhaps what\u2019s happened is the Israelis have become too reliant upon their technology and they should go back to some of their earlier techniques of just effectively infiltrating using human means,\u201d she said.”<\/p>\n
