Eisenkot demands decision on Netanyahu aide's alleged record alteration

Eisenkot's appeal followed disclosures that Braverman acknowledged changing an official record of a conversation between Netanyahu and his military secretary on the morning of the October 7 attack.

Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara has been urged by Yashar! party chairman Gadi Eisenkot to decide on whether to indict Tzachi Braverman, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and others before the upcoming elections. This demand comes following revelations that Braverman allegedly changed the recorded time of a phone call on the morning of the October 7 massacre.

Eisenkot's appeal, titled "The Public's Right to Know," follows information that emerged during a police investigation into Braverman's actions. The letter, dated October 14, stated that Eisenkot believes the information adds to a systematic pattern of falsifying and distorting official records, with the knowledge and direction of Netanyahu and his senior advisers.

He emphasized that there is a clear public interest in reaching a decision on whether to file an indictment before the elections. Braverman acknowledged changing the recorded time during questioning by the Israel Police's National Unit for the Investigation of Serious and International Crime in November 2024. The case has been transferred to the State Attorney's Office and has been pending a decision for over a year.
