A detailed virtual map of training bases, including specific locations such as mess halls, living quarters, and assembly areas, was publicly available on the IDF recruitment site, Mitgaisim.
"The October 7 surprise attack by Hamas, which claimed the lives of more than 1,400 Israelis, may have been facilitated by critical information published on an official IDF website, according to a report by Kan News.
"A detailed virtual map of training bases, including specific locations such as mess halls, living quarters, and assembly areas, was publicly available on the IDF recruitment site, Mitgaisim. Hezbollah did not need secret intelligence to attack IDF bases, as key details were easily accessible online. According to Kan News, "Hezbollah didn’t need inside intelligence… much of this data was already accessible online."
"The site, operated by Unit Mitav, is part of the IDF's effort to create a transparent and accessible recruitment process for potential conscripts. It offers recruits and their families a comprehensive view of the conscription process, including detailed overviews of training bases, classification procedures, and logistical information like leave schedules. While the site aims to simplify the recruitment experience, it inadvertently exposed sensitive military details that were exploited during the October 7 attack." . . .
