“The responsibility of the heads of the defense establishment [for October 7] is clear and they have taken responsibility, so we will let them fight now with peace of mind,” he says. “But you, Netanyahu, you are in charge, so you are guilty,” Yaalon declares, referring to the prime minister’s refusal to take responsibility for the massacre.
