Winter's outline for investigating the October 7 events revealed

The Amcha Yisrael party, led by Ofer Winter, has unveiled a plan to establish a commission of inquiry into the October 7 events, three years after the massacre. The outline stipulates that the new Knesset will secretly elect the committee chair and deputy from among retired judges, and that the investigation team will include bereaved families and victims. The party claims that the lack of an inquiry committee is a "shared disgrace for the coalition and the opposition."

The Amcha Yisrael party, led by Ofer Winter, has revealed for the first time on N12 a plan to establish a commission of inquiry into the October 7 events, three years after the massacre. The outline is led by party members Netali Shem Tov, Sigal Kraunik, and attorney Eran Ben Ari. The party claims that "the fact that no inquiry committee has been established to this day is a shared disgrace for the coalition and the opposition - both sides have an interest in not having an inquiry committee because they were part of the failure." The outline stipulates that the new Knesset will secretly elect the committee chair and deputy from among a list of retired judges, similar to presidential elections. The investigation team will include bereaved families, representatives of hostages, and people directly affected. The broad mandate will allow examining not only the sequence of events on October 7 but also processes and decisions from the years preceding it, including Operation Protective Edge. The party emphasizes that the mechanism is intended to remove the investigation from political struggle and base it on principles of truth, trust, and results.
