according to the Hebrew group Tasnim News, Haaretz newspaper in a report that was recently published in this media , revealed the results of an investigation that the security and military institutions of the Zionist regime, the Mossad, have conducted on the cause of Israel’s failure against the Al-Aqsa storm operation.

Based on this The investigation of the three main causes of this great failure on October 7.

This newspaper quoted current and former officials in the Israeli army. Since May 2021, the Israeli army has stopped collecting security information related to the meeting of senior leaders of Hamas and the exercises that this group conducts in the Gaza Strip.

According to this report, Israel’s decision was made in the context of underestimating the capabilities of the Hamas movement because it was believed that the only danger that this The movement can have missiles that are capable of reaching the depths of Israel. gave, no one in the security structure of Israel believed that Hamas fighters have the capacity and ability to enter Israeli settlements and no one shows any attention to such a scenario, hence the focus of the intelligence agencies on collecting information related to The rockets that Hamas had obtained were directed. Hamas, including Marwan Issa, the deputy commander of the Qassam Brigades, was concentrated, and Israel did not pay special attention to the exercises carried out by the fighters of this group, because the security officials believed that following these exercises was just a waste of time.

And the result of this perception was that a unit with minimal facilities and only 3 officers was responsible for following the movements of some Hamas military commanders.

In another part of the research published in this Hebrew-language media, it is also stated that the Israeli army completely ruled out the possibility that Hamas fighters could dig They considered it impossible to pass the underground tunnel through the barrier wall around the Gaza strip.

The same perceptions also made the Israeli army severely underestimate the capabilities of Hamas. underestimated the importance of this group and believed that this group is not capable of attacking Israel, therefore it did not prepare any plans and plans to deal with the possible crossing of the border by Hamas.

Haaretz, quoting Israeli officials, also revealed: Aharen Haliwa, the (resigned) head of Israel’s military intelligence service (Aman), announced in 2021 that there was only one thing left for Israel, and that was to remove its missile capability. It is Hamas.

He further wrote: Humiliating and underestimating the capabilities of Hamas continued until the last moments before the beginning of the 7th of October offensive, when An Israeli soldier informed his senior commanders that he had observed the abnormal movements of the Hamas commander, but the senior commanders declared that this action was just a normal exercise and maneuver.

Haaretz emphasized at the same time, Israel’s intelligence failures continued even after the start of the Gaza war, one of the symbols of which was the fact that, contrary to the prediction of the Israeli army, many Hamas forces did not go into the tunnels when the war started. .

Also, the Israeli army did not know about the existence of many tunnels and its branches dug in different depths of the ground, tunnels that could be destroyed. from the air and killing the people in it in this way did not exist. From the beginning of the war, the Israeli army thought it would be able to eliminate Hamas fighters inside the tunnels, but this never happened.

Also, despite Israel’s focus on the Hamas missile system, the war proved that the Israeli army did not have enough information about Hamas’s missile capabilities and weapons production.
