Retired Israeli general: We lost the war with Hamas. Brik stressed that the Israeli home front is not prepared for a regional war.
The former general added that what he described as the maneuver (the ground attack on the Gaza Strip), which Israeli leaders cheered for, did not stand the test and did not achieve the result that everyone had hoped for. According to Israeli army data, the number of deaths among its ranks as a result of the war since October 7 has reached 591 officers and soldiers, including 249 since the start of the ground operation.
