Victims of the October 7 massacre presented a detailed document titled 'Tik 7.10' Tuesday at a press conference, framing it as an indictment against Israeli governments for their responsibility for the failures leading to the attack, Israeli media reported. Nova victim's mother Shellie Mesch-Yogev accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of building the policy that led to the massacre, saying he rejected a Shin Bet recommendation to eliminate Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar a week before October 7.
Bereaved families and victims of the October 7 massacre released a comprehensive document Tuesday titled 'Tik 7.10' (File 7.10), which they describe as a detailed indictment against successive Israeli governments for their responsibility for the failures that enabled the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust.
In a press conference covered by Hebrew media, the families presented the document, available online at tik10.com, as an evidentiary compilation of policies and decisions they say led to the October 7 catastrophe. The document is the culmination of nearly three years of advocacy by survivors and bereaved families demanding accountability.
Shellie Mesch-Yogev, mother of Nova massacre victim Libi Cohen-Meguri, made a direct appeal to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. 'The misguided conception that brought Libi to burial in the earth is the product of political decisions by the political echelon over 15 years,' she said. 'A week before October 7, Ronen Bar recommended that you eliminate Sinwar. If only you had listened, my Libi would be here by my side.' She pressed the prime minister on the policy of transferring funds to Hamas: 'What led you to the terrible thought that it was right for the State of Israel to transfer funds to an organization founded to destroy and murder?'
The presentation follows earlier family-led initiatives reported by The Zioneer on Tuesday, including the playing of a final recording by a mother of another Nova victim. The 'Tik 7.10' document marks an escalation in formality, intended as a public record for domestic and international audiences.
As of this report, the document's legal or political impact remains unclear. The families have called for a state commission of inquiry, a demand that has been consistently rejected by the government. The full text of the document has been published on a dedicated website.
