The state commission of inquiry into the submarine affair, a long-running political scandal, has found 'systemic failings' in Israel's acquisition of naval vessels during a previous government led by Benjamin Netanyahu. The commission reported that these failings, including the sale of vessels to Egypt with Israel's approval, endangered national security due to a lack of clear policy, strategy, and proper documentation of key decisions. The panel accused Netanyahu of bypassing government and military oversight, and criticized other senior officials for their roles in advancing the deals without adequate expertise or transparency. The commission called for the government to set clear security priorities and for the military to develop a multi-year plan, while personal responsibility findings remain pending due to ongoing legal petitions.
