"The IDF probe of the battle of Be’eri on October 7 has cleared Brig.-Gen. Barak Hiram, commander of the 99th Division, of allegations that he ordered the killing of hostages who were mixed in with Hamas terrorists."

"Despite being cleared, due to reasons which the IDF did not explain, Hiram’s future IDF career options are still frozen at this time, with no set date for when that issue will be resolved."

General Barak however his file now having a "flagging" action. His personnel file will be under serious review until all matters fully resolved. Flagging normally an impediment to serious career advancement.

“flag” is an abbreviated term used to describe the initiation or removal of a suspension of personnel actions. When a Soldier’s status changes from favorable (meets the standard) to unfavorable (fails to meet the standard), a flag is initiated immediately. Likewise, when a Soldier’s status changes from unfavorable to favorable, the flag must be removed immediately." - USA  AR 600-8-2, 

General Barak  apparently "out of the woods" but not so totally 100 % so!

"out of the woods : No longer in danger or dealing with a particular difficulty, though not entirely resolved. Usually used in the negative"
