Israel, by contrast, failed to achieve any of its goals – beginning with restoring its deterrent capacity. Indeed, despite Israel’s best efforts, Hamas continued to launch long-range missiles at major populated areas from Haifa in the north to Ashkelon and Dimona in the south, and it repeatedly crossed Israeli lines using underground tunnels.
相反，以色列没有实现任何目标——其中最重要的是重塑其威慑力。事实上，尽管以色列使出了浑身解数，但哈马斯仍在继续向从海法到北部的阿什克伦和南部的迪摩纳在内的人口密集区发射了远程导弹，据说还利用地下通道穿越了以色列边境。
