Ex-Israeli Chief of Staff Confronts October 7 Aftermath
Former Israeli Army Chief of Staff Hersi Halivay faced widespread criticism after participating in coverage of the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel, which is considered one of the largest security failures in the country's history since the Yom Kippur War of 1973. He assumed his position during the incident and resigned in March 2025 following the defeat, but prior to that, he was among Israel’s most prominent military leaders, having taken part in the Gaza War and leading operations against Hamas and Hezbollah, as well as overseeing the rebuilding of military capabilities. His assessment remains in limbo, viewed by some as a military hero and by others as responsible for the failures of the October 7 operations.
