The Hannibal Directive (Hebrew: נוהל חניבעל; also Hannibal Procedure or Hannibal Protocol) is the name of a controversial procedure that was used by Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) until 2016 to prevent the capture of Israeli soldiers by enemy forces. According to one version, it says that “the kidnapping must be stopped by all means, even at the price of striking and harming our own forces.”

Israeli reserve pilot Col. Nof Erez describes the Israeli army’s response to Oct. 7 as “MASS HANNIBAL.”
He was in one of the first helicopter gunships to arrive at the area.

28 helicopters fired all their munitions before going back to base to reload that morning. They came back to the fight, and only later in the morning were they more ‘selective’ in their targeting.
[trying to find a better source on this, but Nof Erez mentions the helicopters having to reload in his interview along with the ‘shooting at everything in the area’ in the early morning hours)
