ISRAEL’S top general resigned today, citing the security and intelligence failures related to Hamas’s surprise attack some 15 months ago.
This comes as Israel launched a massive military attack in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin on Tuesday that the Palestinian Health Ministry said had killed at least six people and wounded 35.
Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi is the most senior Israeli figure to resign over the security breakdown on October 7 2023, when thousands of Hamas-led militants carried out a land, sea and air assault into southern Israel, rampaging through army bases and nearby communities for hours.
