Transcript Alleges Netanyahu's Chief of Staff Tried to Alter Oct. 7 Call Log

N12 published a transcript alleging that Tzachi Braverman, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, attempted to alter the timestamp of a call log from October 7, 2023. Braverman allegedly asked a stenographer to change the time from 6:40 a.m. to 6:29 a.m., a claim his representatives deny. This report aligns with accusations made by former military secretary Avi Gil. Braverman is also suspected of unauthorized collection of classified post-October 7 protocols.
