Ayla Hasson reveals that the first conversation of the head of the Shin Bet with the Prime Minister's secretary took place at 6:19 on October 7. In the conversation, it was stated that there were unusual events in Gaza, but they were not being addressed at that time, and a briefing would be held at eight in the morning. The military secretary, Major General Gil, immediately informed the Prime Minister despite the Shin Bet's lack of urgency.

And so Hasson asks: "The night between the sixth and seventh of October is a very large black hole." Among them is the question: When was the initial connection between the security establishment and the Prime Minister's military secretary created?

She reports that "at 6:19 in the morning, the head of the Shin Bet went up and called the Prime Minister's military secretary, updating him for the first time that there were exceptional incidents during the night, SIM cards were activated, and Hamas went down to bunkers, but the head of the Shin Bet told the military secretary that they are not addressing the situation for now and scheduled another discussion for eight in the morning."

This conversation lasts about six minutes, the military secretary, Major General Avi Gil, calls the Chief of Staff's aide on the red phone, and while they are talking, the heavy barrage of missiles towards Israel begins – the war has started. The military secretary calls the Prime Minister, wakes him up in seconds, and informs him about a very serious and unusual event.

Hasson adds: "Gil immediately understands that this is an attack and not a local incident, and the rest will be recorded in the annals of history."

Until 6:19, no one in the Prime Minister's Office received updates on sirens, bunkers, or any updates on unusual events. This was the first time the military secretary was exposed to something unusual, ten minutes before the attack began. And even then he told him that a situation assessment meeting would take place at eight in the morning, which of course has not happened until today.

These things are documented, all conversations on red phones are recorded, and an investigative committee will be able to obtain this data precisely. There are no spins or speculations.
