Hello @EnderAyalp,

Welcome to the Google Cloud Community!

Take a look at this Github Post as it brings resolution to the error 13 unexpected error. 

A workaround has been made for this issue by setting the use_deprecated_preparation to true by using the following command:

gcloud config set app/use_deprecated_preparation True

Once its set, retry the deployment.

Another option you can try is updating your gcloud cli to the latest version by using the following code:

gcloud components update

 If the above options don't work, you can contact Google Cloud Support to further look into your case. Let me know if it helped, thanks!
