Lieutenant General \u200bHerzi Halevi, the head of the Israeli military, \u200cacknowledged the security \u2063failures that allowed the \u2064attack to occur \u200band emphasized the need for immediate action.<\/p>\n<p>Devastating Toll on Israeli Lives<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli death \u200btoll has tragically\u200d risen to over 1,300, with the majority being \u200cinnocent civilians \u200bwho were\u2064 mercilessly gunned down in their homes, on\u200c the \u2063streets, or even at a dance party.
