Israel's Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir has called for a thorough systemic investigation into the intelligence and operational failures that allowed the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack, which killed over 1,200 Israelis. Despite widespread public support for an official state inquiry, Prime Minister Netanyahu's government continues to resist establishing a commission until the Gaza conflict ends, highlighting ongoing political divisions within Israel regarding accountability and the judicial system's role.
