New evidence and testimonies collected by Lahav 433 suggest that Tzachi Braverman, the former Chief of Staff, systematically collected approximately 30 classified protocols in the month following the October 7th massacre. All the documents reportedly concerned the period preceding the attack. Braverman is suspected of taking these classified documents without authorization and in violation of standard procedures. The protocols involved sensitive security discussions, including those related to the Gaza Strip and meetings with security officials about Hamas.
Further investigation indicates that among the collected documents were highly sensitive and classified protocols from the Political-Security Cabinet meetings. These new details emerge following a report by Yaron Avraham on Channel 12 news the previous evening, which focused on alleged protocol falsification and a "renovation call with the stenographer." Now, it appears that alongside suspicions of altering protocol content, the removal of dozens of classified documents after the massacre is also under examination.
The investigation is reportedly focusing on the suspicion that the removal of these documents was intended to influence the narrative and public opinion regarding the events leading up to October 7th. Upon completion of the investigation, the case is expected to be transferred to the Attorney General for a decision on whether to indict Braverman. It is emphasized that these are currently suspicions under investigation, and no indictment decision has been made.
