A survey conducted by the Israeli National Security Studies Institute (INSS) and reported by CNN indicates that 74% of Israelis support the establishment of an official inquiry into the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas, which resulted in hundreds of fatalities in Israeli settlements near Gaza.
Key Findings from the Survey:
- 74% support the formation of an independent inquiry commission, reflecting a decline in trust in the government and military's ability to learn from the incident.
- Half of the respondents acknowledged that there has been no winner in the ongoing conflict with Gaza, despite over a year since its escalation.
- There is a significant drop in confidence in political and military leadership, particularly amid mutual accusations of negligence and misinformation.
- Growing calls for early elections following the conclusion of military operations.
