Netanyahu's fate unclear

Despite committing grave humanitarian violations, the Israeli ground invasion is falling short of meeting its set goals. 

The former head of the Israeli Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman), Amos Yadlin, said the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) were yet to achieve their objectives in the aggression on the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli military has two tasks, "dismantling Hamas and releasing the prisoners, and we are still far from achieving that." Yadlin said.

Yadlin also underlined that "the factor of time is not in favor of Israel, not in the north and not in terms of the economy, nor external pressure."

IOF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said the army "did not fulfill our mission on October 7 to safeguard the security of Israelis," noting that "[Israel] paid a very high price for it."

In light of the resounding failures, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government is being faced with more criticism than ever. 

Israeli media have discussed Netanyahu's fate after the end of the Israeli ground incursion in the Gaza Strip, revealing ongoing consultations among members of Netanyahu's Likud party in the Knesset regarding the possibility of the Prime Minister's ouster through a no-confidence vote.
