Thousands of Israelis gathered in Tel Aviv on Saturday evening, three days before elections, to demand the establishment of an official investigative committee into the failures of the October 7 Hamas attacks. The protest, initiated by the "October Council," families of victims, and surviving hostages, took place in a Tel Aviv square and was attended by several opposition party leaders.
Daniel Aloni, who was abducted to Gaza with her daughter, spoke at the rally, questioning how she could assure her daughter of safety when no official inquiry has been formed nearly three years after the "worst disaster in our history." She urged attendees not to abandon their voices and their ability to influence the future, emphasizing the opportunity to "write a different story for our children" in the upcoming elections.
Rabbi Elhanan Danino, father of Uri Danino, who was abducted from the Nova music festival and killed in Hamas captivity, stated that while an investigation committee would not bring his son back, it is a "duty that falls upon all of us." He suggested that those evading the formation of such a committee might have "good reasons" for doing so, implying a potential desire to conceal information. Danino noted that three years have passed without the formation of a parliamentary or governmental investigative committee.
