An Israeli military post near the Gaza border was left unguarded for about 12 hours last week, despite 60 female lookouts stationed inside. The Israel Defense Forces have called it a serious error and are conducting a full investigation. This incident comes over a year after a Hamas-led assault on the Nahal Oz base resulted in the deaths of 15 female lookouts and the abduction of seven others to Gaza. The military is now considering changes to the deployment of lookouts, including arming them or relocating them to more protected command centers.
