By releasing selected findings, the GSS aims to provide public insight into the significant security failures that occurred. The partial disclosure demonstrates a commitment to transparency while protecting crucial national security protocols.

"We see great importance in reflecting the main findings to the public" - GSS Official

Tel Aviv, March 5: On Tuesday night, Israel's anti-terror General Security Service (GSS) released a document of the important sections from its investigation into the security failures around the October 7th terrorist massacre.

Key Points

GSS releases partial classified investigation of October 7 Hamas attack

Balancing transparency with national security concerns

Significant security failures exposed in internal review

Limited public disclosure of intelligence materials

The bulk of the investigation includes classified intelligence materials, tools and methods of operation, and therefore there is a restriction on its full disclosure, explained the GSS.

The organization explained, however, given the "magnitude of the disaster, we see great importance in reflecting the main findings to the public."

As such it decided to publish parts of the investigation in a way that the organization hopes will provide "as balanced and complete a picture as possible, without compromising matters that must be kept secret for reasons of national security." (ANI/TPS)
