Yoav Galant said he spoke with the families of the victims and “he will take responsibility for everything that is happening in this war.”
Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Galant made a statement about the mistaken shooting of hostages by the Israeli military, saying that he was responsible for it, reports Sky.news.
Galant called it a “terrible night,” adding that all of Israel “feels the pain” of people wrongfully killed.
The head of Israel’s defense department noted that he spoke with the families of the victims and said that “he is responsible for everything that is happening in this war.”
“We were so close to a great victory, so close to taking them home,” Gallant said.
At the same time, he said, there is no alternative but to pay the price of war in pursuit of a just cause.
“Our troops are fighting every day… the victories are unprecedented, but yes, the risks are enormous,” the IDF chief said.
Let’s remember that the day before the Israeli army admitted that it had mistakenly killed three Hamas hostages. Following this, an investigation into the incident was immediately launched. It was later discovered that the hostages were shirtless and waving a white flag when they were shot.
