Ehud Barak: ‘Israel is Closer to Defeat…’

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak said, Sunday, “Israel is closer to defeat rather than to a complete victory in Gaza.

Israel Hayom newspaper quoted Barak as saying “Israel is stumbling without a strategy or a plan of action in the Gaza Strip.”

“I warned Netanyahu against staying in Gaza for a long time, as there is no interest in staying in Gaza for many years,” he added.

Barak pointed out Netanyahu is “an obsessive gambler who risks the lives of prisoners.”

For the 338th consecutive day, the Israeli occupation army continues its aggression on the Gaza Strip, with American and European support, as its aircraft bomb the vicinity of hospitals, buildings, towers, and homes of Palestinian civilians, destroying them over the heads of their residents, and preventing the entry of water, food, medicine, and fuel.

The ongoing aggression by the occupation on Gaza has led to the martyrdom of more than 40,939 martyrs, the injury of 94,616 others, and the displacement of 90% of the population of the Strip, according to data from the United Nations.
