Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity Party, condemned Channel 14 on Tuesday for failing to broadcast the national memorial ceremony for the victims of the October 7th massacre. Eisenkot, speaking after the ceremony held in Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park, stated that the "regime channel disgracefully ignored" the event, which honored the heroism and solidarity of Israelis who saved lives. He accused the channel of continuing its usual programming in the spirit of the ruling party, which he claimed evades responsibility and spreads hatred. Eisenkot further alleged that this was another "pathetic attempt to rewrite history while hurting the pain of an entire nation," calling it shameful and unacceptable in Israeli society.
The memorial ceremony, organized by the "Komo" movement and bereaved families, marked three years since the October 7th massacre. Approximately 50,000 people attended the event, including families of fallen soldiers and former hostages. The ceremony, held for the third consecutive year, was also broadcast in various locations across Israel.
