Original copy of the first interim report of the Agranat Commision, titled "National Inquiry Commission - Yom Kippur War, Interim Report." 33 pages, dated April 1st, 1974. The five commission members' signatures appear in print.
The Commission recommended the resignation of Chief of Military Intelligence, Major General Eliyahu Zeira, charged Southern Command chief Shmuel Gonen (Gorodish) with failures, and found Chief of Staff David Elazar responsible for intelligence and operation failures before the war, which caused its sad results. Still, the Commission found nothing wrong with the conduct of Defense Minister Moshe Dayan, and praised the conduct of Prime Minister Golda Meir.
Following the interim report, Elazar resigned, Zeira and Gonen were dismissed and Meir resigned a week later, following sustained public pressure, despite the report's praise.
