The head of Israeli military intelligence, Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva, has resigned over the failures surrounding the unprecedented October 7 Hamas terrorist attack, becoming the first senior figure to step down over his role in the deadliest assault in Israel’s history. Haliva’s resignation follows widespread criticism of the military and security leadership’s handling of the attack, in which terrorists breached Israel’s border defenses and killed over 1,200 people, mostly civilians. The resignation is seen as potentially setting the stage for more departures among Israel’s top security brass.
