N12 publishes transcript of Braverman's alleged attempt to change PM's Oct. 7 call log - report
The account appears to align with what former military secretary Avi Gil said in a Thursday interview with N12 and Israel Hayom, in which he charged Braverman with making the changes.
N12 released a transcript on Sunday claiming former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's chief of staff, Tzachi Braverman, asked a stenographer to alter the recorded time of a secure-line call between Netanyahu and his military secretary, Avi Gil, on October 7, 2023. According to the transcript, Braverman requested the time be changed from 6:40 a.m. to 6:29 a.m. The stenographer refused, stating she was not allowed to modify the official, digitally signed document.
Nevertheless, Braverman persisted and allegedly altered the time himself using blue ink on the printed transcript. The stenographer then informed Gil of the alteration. Braverman's motives for changing the timestamp were to suggest Netanyahu received the report immediately after the attack, according to N12. Gil has previously accused Braverman of making the changes, stating that he was instructed by Braverman to change the call time from 6:40 to 6:29.
Braverman's office contends the transcript is false, arguing that the stenographer was never informed of Braverman's involvement in the call and that no such transcript existed during his police questioning. The case has been forwarded to the Attorney General's Office for potential indictment on charges of violating procedures. Additionally, N12 reported that Braverman is suspected of collecting around 30 classified protocols without authorization in the aftermath of the October 7 massacre, possibly to shape the public narrative.
