The head of Israeli military intelligence, Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva, has resigned over the failures surrounding Hamas’ October 7 attack, which was the deadliest assault in Israel’s history.

The Hamas attack, which caught Israel off guard, shattered Israelis’ sense of faith in their military and sparked a war that has killed over 34,000 Palestinians in Gaza.
