Northern Israel's Trust Crisis: 'The IDF Must Look Us in the Eye and Stop the Spin'
משבר האמון בצפון: "צה"ל חייב להסתכל לנו בעיניים ולהפסיק לחרטט"
Summary
A resilience study found a 15% drop in the psychological resilience of northern Israeli residents following the night of March 11, when Hezbollah fired around 200 rockets — despite the IDF having insisted beforehand that no change to civilian directives was needed. Residents of the Galilee expressed deep frustration, demanding the military stop projecting an image of omnipotence while failing to protect them. The IDF has pledged to draw lessons from the incident.
