The Sderot Police Battle became one of the formative stories of October 7 th.
Hamas identified the Sderot Police Station as a key target. Dozens of terrorists, armed with
automatic weapons and missiles, stormed the building, faced by only several police officers.
Through outstanding monologues, video segments, security footage and communication
recordings, the story of the battle is retold powerfully, up to the dramatic decision to
destroy the building.
Survivor testimonies offer a double image: that of heroism of policemen and women, who
battled to prevented mass killings, but also the neglect, the chaos and the loneliness of
those injured police officers, who were trapped in the building as their peers tried in vain to
rescue them.
