“6,000 Terrorists BREACHED the Border” IDF Security Chief - What Happened on Oct 7th - Officer Tatum

Oct 12, 2025
I sat down with IDF Lieutenant Colonel Keith Isaacson, the head of security for Israel’s Eshkol region—32 communities on the Gaza border, 16 hit on October 7. He walks us through the morning of the attack, why Israel was caught off guard, and how 6,000 terrorists overwhelmed multiple points at once. We talk first responders who died saving civilians, the hostages still inside Gaza, and what “warning strikes” actually look like when Israel targets terror buildings. He addresses rumors about stand-down orders, the pace of the war, and the role of U.S. support. If you want a first-hand, ground-truth account—unfiltered—watch this.
