Former Shin Bet head: The war is over and Hamas remains in power in Gaza. Carmi Gilon saw - in an interview he gave to the Israeli Channel 12 - that the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) received a "strong blow" Gilon expected that the firing would stop for a period of up to 6 years, after which rocket firing from Gaza might resume.

“No one could have imagined this happening. I do not have an explanation related to intelligence, and I believe that as the fighting continues and more facts are revealed about... Hamas' preparations show that the intelligence failure is enormous," he said.
