The resignation of the Israeli senior commander due to the failure of the October 7 operation

The senior commander announced his resignation in a meeting with Eyal Zamir, the Chief of Staff of the Israeli army. Odid Besiuk resigned after 33 years in the Israeli army, and the Chief of Staff of the Israeli army agreed to this resignation.

Eyal Zamir, while agreeing to Odid Besiuk's request, asked him to remain in this position for a while due to operational challenges.

In private conversations, this senior Israeli commander has taken responsibility for his role in the defeats of the Israeli army before and during the Al-Aqsa Storm operation.

According to the Israeli army's investigation, the unit under his command failed to create an accurate picture of the operation in real time and deploy troops in the appropriate locations.

His resignation announcement came a few days after the Israeli army published the findings of its investigation into the failures related to Operation Storm Al-Aqsa.

Many Israeli officials have already admitted to the failure of Operation Storm Al-Aqsa, and some have resigned.

Herzi Halevi, the former chief of staff of the Israeli army, announced his resignation a month ago; Halevi's resignation letter states: The army failed in its mission to defend Israel and the cabinet paid a heavy price.

Immediately following Halevi's resignation, Hebrew media reported that Yaron Finkelman, commander of the southern region of the Israeli army, also resigned.

Following the resignation of the chief of staff and commander of the southern region of the Israeli army, Yafat Yerushalmi, head of the military prosecution and legal affairs of the army of this regime, also resigned from his position in connection with the defeat on October 7, 2023.
