Former head of the Israeli Prime Minister's Office Tzachi Braverman admitted during a police interrogation that he changed the time of Benjamin Netanyahu's phone conversation with his military secretary Avi Gil, which took place on the morning of October 7, 2023. According to investigation materials, Braverman altered the recorded time from 06:40 to 06:29, effectively merging two separate calls into one. The difference between the calls was 11 minutes. During this interval, the military secretary received additional intelligence information. Avi Gil suggested that the time change might have been an attempt to shape a certain version of the October 7 events, including to bolster accusations against security forces. The very act of altering an official record could carry serious legal consequences, including up to ten years in prison. The investigation has been completed, and the case file has been with the prosecution for over a year, but no decision on filing charges has been made yet.
