Former National Security Council head Dr. Eyal Hulata warns in an interview with 103FM of a symbolic attack against Israelis abroad on the third anniversary of the October 7 massacre. Hulata, who served as head of the National Security Staff, says that "the likelihood that they will try to carry out a symbolic attack specifically on this day is high" and emphasizes that the threat is not limited to the anniversary itself, but stems from a general increase in attacks against Israelis and Jews. He states that the recommendation to downplay Israeli and Jewish symbols has become normative. Alongside the security warning, Hulata addresses the personal significance of the day and the ongoing failures in Israel, criticizing the lack of a state commission of inquiry. He links the avoidance of taking responsibility to events like the Fly Dubai incident, and calls for a systematic approach to failures.
