You've got loads of good advice here! Definitely one to remember is that they wouldn't have come in if you were home.

If you can't get an alarm or security straight away, you can get stickers for your windows that say you do - they can be a good deterrent. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Monitored-Installed-Stickers-Security-Recording/dp/B07JHJL2YG/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?crid=38WJ1THPN3GDI&keywords=window+security+stickers&qid=1699284024&sprefix=window+security+st%2Caps%2C119&sr=8-9

Let your landlord know and ask them to come back to you with actions to improve security at the back of the building. If they broke a window to get in, then it sounds like you probably have single glazing. If you can get the landlord to put in double glazing, it's much safer and warmer. However, a lot of landlords are incommunicative arseholes who just like to take your money every month...

I would also suggest putting a note through your neighbours' doors in the building to explain what happened and suggest a WhatsApp group or email chain for you all to keep in touch. Some won't be arsed, but you'll find that some will have been there a long time and willing to be part of a wee community.
