State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman stated during a State Control Committee discussion regarding the status of October 7 failure investigations that 'from the first moment, we acted vigorously to conduct oversight of all bodies and officials.' Hila Abir, whose brother Lotan was killed at the Nova music festival, interrupted saying: 'Except for the political leadership. We demand answers!' Opposition members of Knesset also criticized the comptroller, including MK Yoav Segalovitz from Yesh Atid who said: 'It's not within your authority to investigate. You've created non-existent authority that will prevent the establishment of a state commission of inquiry.'
