Thousands Rally in Tel Aviv Demanding Election Inquiry into Oct. 7 Failures
Summarized from The Times of Israel by baba
Thousands of Israelis protested in Tel Aviv on Saturday evening, demanding a state commission of inquiry into the October 7 Hamas attack failures ahead of the October 27 election. Organized by the October Council, the rally featured opposition leaders and aimed to place the inquiry demand at the center of public discourse. Prime Minister Netanyahu opposes such an inquiry, suggesting a lawmaker-appointed panel instead, which critics deem insufficient.
