The Israeli Ishar party, led by Gadi Eisenkot, announced Tuesday the submission of a bill to establish an official commission of inquiry into the attack on October 7, 2023, as part of a package of drafts put forward by the "Change Camp" in collaboration with other parliamentary blocs, upon the opening of the new session of the Knesset.
The package includes proposals to set a maximum term for the prime minister's term and to repeal legislation approved by the previous government as part of the so-called "judicial coup", according to what was reported on Israel's Channel 12.
The October Council, which includes families of Israelis who were killed or injured in the attack on October 7 or during the war in Gaza, welcomed the recruitment and considers it "the first step on the way to reaching truth and reform."
Since the attack launched by Hamas on Israeli military sites and settlements near Gaza, the opposition and large parts of the public have demanded the establishment of an official commission of inquiry, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects this, even though Israeli officials define what happened as an intelligence, security and military failure.
