The newspaper The Times of Israel stated that Air Force Commander Tomer Bar and Navy Commander David Sa’ara Salam were summoned. Furthermore, the former head of the operations division, Šlomi Binder, who now heads the news department, was summoned.
The “carpet” is the former chief of the Main Intelligence Administration and the former head of the Operations Administration. The former head of the Southern Command, Jaron Finkelman, who resigned from his post this year, and the former commander of the Gaza Division, Avi Rosenfeld, also stood before Zamir.
Lower-ranking officers are summoned on Sunday by the Deputy Chief of Staff Tamir Jadai. Among other things, he summoned the intelligence officer of the Southern Command.
When Zamir became chief of staff in March, he set up an external panel to assess the quality of investigations by various branches of the military into the failure of the October 7, 2023 attacks. The panel said most of the investigations were inadequate and some were unacceptable.
Then Zamir said that the armed forces are fully responsible for the failure of October 7, but an external commission is needed for definitive conclusions. He heard calls to establish a state commission of inquiry, but the government is against it.
The southern command is in the center of attention, because the attack was committed by terrorists in the area for which it is responsible. Immediately after the attack, it became clear that this headquarters and its intelligence service ignored information from soldiers and soldiers, the increased movement of Hamas members and its exercises.
