I believe Israel was embarrassed. But Israel also has had a longstanding Donald Trump-esque view of not caring what other countries think. For example, Israel has done some really dodgy things with NZ passports, got caught with its hand in the proverbial cookie jar and was embarrassed politically. A few years later it did something similar again. So I think embarrassment is a question of personal/national perspective. From an operational standpoint, Israel may have permanently burned up to 2 dozen shooters and operational support personnel/facilitators from ever conducting external operations again. Those people take many years to vet, train, and trust. That's a lot of expensive chess pieces to remove one bishop or rook.
