Eyal Zamir

Why IDF chief Eyal Zamir’s crackdown on unauthorized symbols is about protecting the IDF’s professionalism and chain of command in wartime

Gofman himself is still awaiting his official and final appointment as head of the Mossad, but behind the scenes, the candidate picture is beginning to take shape - along with the balance of power.

Israeli officials stressed that despite ongoing diplomatic contacts, the military option “remains on the table” for US President Trump.

The ICC is expected to issue arrest warrants for Defense Minister Katz, Finance Minister Smotrich, National Security Minister Ben-Gvir, IDF Chief Zamir, and Southern Command Chief Yaniv Asor.

The exercise, dubbed “Sulfur and Fire,” included simulated scenarios of infiltrations into communities, drone threats, and complex incidents in the Dead Sea area.

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir visited the UAE secretly during Operation Roaring Lion, accompanied by a US delegation, to strengthen strategic cooperation and discuss defense against Iran.

Zamir had been touring the West Bank when he encountered several soldiers who were behaving inappropriately and failing to follow military discipline.

A security source told Walla that signing a last-minute agreement with the Ayatollahs' regime could bring Israel closer to resuming fighting against Hamas in Gaza.

In March, Zamir sparked a public political storm with remarks at a cabinet meeting about a military manpower shortage, saying, “I am raising 10 red flags before the IDF collapses into itself.”

While the government imposes severe restrictions on its troops, Hezbollah’s terrorists are “sitting comfortably in places they know the IDF has been forbidden to strike."
