Eyal Zamir after 18 months: six-front war, battlefield gains and mounting political pressure (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Any assessment of IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir after a year and a half in the job has to begin with the circumstances in which he took command. Not since Israel’s 1948 War of Independence has a chief of staff entered office while the IDF was engaged on six active fronts. At the same time, Zamir has had to resist pressure from some of the most powerful forces in the governing coalition in order to preserve public confidence in the military, prevent the politicization of the senior comma
The IDF can decide how the battle on the Ali Taher Ridge ends. This is why it is in no hurry (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The way the battle above — and especially below — ground on the Ali Taher ridge ends will have a decisive impact on the outcome of the Third Lebanon War, and above all on the chances of disarming Hezbollah.

During the Syrian civil war, T4 served not only the Syrian Air Force but also Iranian forces, which sought to use it to transfer advanced air defense systems to Hezbollah and Syria. For that reason, according to foreign reports, the Israeli Air Force attacked the base several times.But the April 2025 strike ap
Freeze on all fronts: US, Israel put Iran, Gaza and Lebanon on ice until after elections (opens the original)
