Story summary
  • The High Court of Justice in Israel issued an order halting State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman's investigation into the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks.
  • The court barred him from summoning officials or publishing reports and required him to justify the inquiry into policy and strategy areas.
  • Englman argues the inquiry is necessary because the government refused to establish a state commission of inquiry, and the court's decision has sparked political backlash.
