Israeli Police Chief Limits Access to October 7 Inquiry After Leaks

Following leaks related to the internal investigations of the October 7 events, Israeli Police Commissioner Danni Levi has taken an unusual step to restrict access to sensitive information. Most police commissioners will no longer participate in discussions where the internal inquiry materials are presented. Instead of a broad forum of senior police officials, a smaller group of only six commissioners will now be formed. Only members of this limited forum will be shown the investigation reports and materials concerning the October 7 incidents. This decision comes amid concerns over leaks from internal discussions, prompting police leadership to tighten exposure and enforce stricter protocols around sensitive information. The police stated in response, "Internal procedures are not a matter for the media."
