Blasting PM, Lapid says whoever doesn’t take responsibility for war’s failures shouldn’t take credit for successes

Opposition leader Yair Lapid blasts Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for holding a press conference after a strike targeting Hamas’s military chief Muhammed Deif.

“Whoever doesn’t embrace the residents of Be’eri following the investigation on Friday shouldn’t hold a press conference after the elimination of Deif on Shabbat. Whoever doesn’t take responsibility for his failures doesn’t get credit for successes,” Lapid writes on X, referencing the military’s investigation into the October 7 massacre at the kibbutz near the Gaza border.

Though Lapid says Deif was eliminated, there has been no confirmation on the arch-terrorist’s death, only that he was targeted.
