HEADLINES
Indictment cites 8200 erasure claim
Gaza captagon shipments expose Hamas networks
Netanyahu releases redacted Oct 7 failure report
The time is now 9:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), an indictment against the Shin Bet chief’s brother cites claims that a Unit 8200 operative could erase records from military systems; the IDF says it has no knowledge of such activity, while Gaza sources describe Hamas-backed smuggling networks and massive captagon shipments.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, Netanyahu denies responsibility for October 7 failures, releasing a redacted 55-page response to the state comptroller and blaming Israel’s withdrawals from Lebanon and Gaza for October 7, citing security assessments made 75 minutes before the Hamas attack. He also releases his answers to the state comptroller’s Oct. 7 investigation, aiming to present security chiefs and political rivals as opposed to toppling Hamas. Opposition leader Yair Lapid claimed Netanyahu ignored multiple warnings in the days and months leading up to October 7, citing intelligence documents spanning February 2023 to an hour before the attack and warning that the defense echelon misread Hamas while border activity on Gaza signaled danger. After five weeks in Miami and multiple delays, Sara and Yair Netanyahu boarded a flight to Israel, with officials silent and details emerging about the costly and reinforced Shin Bet security operation.
