Eisenkot is pushing the inquiry on October 7 as Netanyahu targets Arab parties in the tense new parliament.
Gadi Eisenkot, the politician tasked with forming a new Israeli government, pledged on Tuesday to open an official investigation into the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks and to undo many of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's policies, as the new parliament was sworn in at a tense opening session that saw rival parties trade talk of the possibility of forming an Arab government.
