He listed 33 issues that are being investigated which fall under the categories of border protection, securing data, availability of military equipment, and preparedness

Englman emphasized that the government will also be subject to scrutiny including the period before the present government including the Bennett-Lapid administration.

In addition, procedures within the intelligence community and how information before October 7th was collected and reviewed will also be looked at.
