Maariv: Gideon's vehicles have suffered a disastrous failure

Maariv newspaper reported on Sunday that the "Gideon vehicles" in Gaza "failed miserably," adding that "34 Israeli officers and soldiers were killed in the operation without achieving any notable accomplishments."

She continued, "Now Israel stands on the verge of signing a deal that will grant Hamas a strategic victory and an American guarantee of its survival for years to come."

The newspaper said, "Israel must admit that it failed on October 7, 2023. We are now paying the price for this failure."

She pointed out that Defense Minister Yisrael Katz and Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir had miserably failed in the strategy they pursued in recent months in Gaza, which stemmed from the armored corps mentality of "what cannot be decided by force, must be decided by more force."
