Netanyahu's Aides May Have Doctored Phone Records on Israeli General's Pre-Attack Warning on Oct. 7
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The New York Times is reporting aides to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu are being investigated for altering official records of a
phone call by a top general who warned of the Hamas attacks on the
morning of October 7, 2023. The probe suggests Netanyahu may have been
informed of the attack before it happened, which he has denied. Over
1,100 people were killed in the Hamas attacks. In the more than 13
months since, Israel has killed over 43,000 Palestinians in Gaza, though
some estimates put the true death toll at over 300,000.
