Israeli debate on October 7 attack timeline
The Israeli Broadcasting Authority "Kan" revealed that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not request to speak with Chief of Staff Hertzi Halevi until after 9:45 AM on October 7th, despite being informed of the attack at 6:29 AM. This raises questions about the management of the initial hours of the attack and the responsibilities of the Israeli political and security leadership. Sources confirmed that Netanyahu received early calls during the morning before his first direct meeting with the Chief of Staff, which took place about three hours after the attack began. Meanwhile, Netanyahu's office issued a timeline outlining his movements and confirming that security commands and assessments were issued during that period.
