Hamas' October 7th Planning
A recent study revealed that Hamas used strategic deception to conceal its plans for the October 7 attack, by misleading Israel into believing the situation was secure. The group relied on double agents to provide misleading information to Shin Bet until the eve of the assault. The movement based its deception model on the tactics used during the October 1973 war, sending indirect reassurances and demonstrating that Gaza was preoccupied with internal issues, which hindered Israeli intelligence from anticipating the real attack. The study also pointed to secret negotiations with Israel regarding a prisoner exchange as part of the deception plan, aimed at reinforcing the impression that the movement was not planning an attack. Meanwhile, it was secretly preparing for a surprise war and economic facilitation under the cover of negotiations.
