The head of Israel's National Security Directorate, Barr, said that he would resign because he failed to prevent Hamas' attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

Xinhua News Agency reported that Barr said in a speech at a memorial service for members of the National Security Agency (Shin Bet, also known as Shin Bet) held on Monday (April 28) that the National Security Agency failed to provide early warnings about Hamas' attacks on Israel. As the head of the National Security Agency, he should be held responsible.

To ensure "orderly appointment and professional handover", he will resign on June 15th.

In the early morning of March 21st, the office of the Prime Minister of Israel issued a statement saying that the Israeli government unanimously approved Prime Minister Netanyahu's proposal to remove Barr from his position. On the same day, the Israeli High Court issued a temporary injunction to "freeze" the Israeli government's decision to remove Barr from his position.
