(Jehad Alshrafi | AP)TEL AVIV, Israel — Leaked audio recordings broadcast Friday reveal remarks by Israel’s former chief of military intelligence about the price he believed Palestinians should pay for Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack.
This image made from video provided in December 2023 by Israeli Defense Forces shows Aharon Haliva, then the head of Israel’s military intelligence in Gaza City, Gaza Strip.
More than 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza.
Reflecting on those failures in other remarks aired by Israeli Channel 12, he admitted that Israeli intelligence had long underestimated the threat from Gaza.
