Luke is joined by Lincoln Parker, Chair of the Liberal Party’s Defence & National Security Policy Branch, to discuss his insights into the brutal Hamas attack on Israel.

On the last day of the Jewish high holidays, Israelis were shocked as Hamas and Islamic Jihad launched a massive rocket attack from Gaza, breached hi-tech barriers, and engaged in hostilities inside Israel. 

The offensive was unprecedented, revealing a significant intelligence failure by Israel which saw Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declare a state of war and vow consequences for Palestinians.

Militants infiltrated Israeli border communities, taking hostages and causing casualties, as horrifying scenes unfolded. In southern Israel, an all-night dance festival turned into a nightmare as gunfire rained down, resulting in numerous casualties. 

By nightfall, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) estimated around 200-300 Palestinian militants were still inside Israel, with multiple ongoing engagements to regain control.
