Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the Israeli army to turn off its recording system in the command centre of military headquarters after the start of the war, according to a report in the Haaretz newspaper.
That means that all security cabinet meetings, which are recorded routinely, were not taped as the army complied with the order, the report in the Israeli newspaper said.
Netanyahu insisted, the report added, that only specific security cabinet meetings he wanted would be recorded or transcribed by his office and not by the army.
The report also revealed that soon after October 7, the prime minister moved all security cabinet meetings to his office in Tel Aviv.
The move was aimed at holding meetings in a place Netanyahu could control rather than trusting the army not to record them, a source told Haaretz.
