The documents in question concern the period preceding the massacre and include highly sensitive security discussions about Gaza and Hamas, meetings with defense officials, and protocols from the Political-Security Cabinet. Investigators suspect that Braverman took the documents in violation of established procedures to influence the public narrative regarding the events leading up to the attack.
In addition to the unauthorized collection of documents, the investigation is examining allegations that Braverman attempted to alter a protocol's timestamp. He allegedly requested a stenographer to change the recorded time of a conversation on the morning of October 7th between Netanyahu and former Military Secretary Maj. Gen.

The completed investigation will be reviewed by State Prosecutor Yulan Cohen and the Attorney General, who will decide whether to file charges and indict Braverman.
