Central Command

IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir has decided to freeze the appointment of new Major Generals until 2027. This move aims to ensure stability within the army's leadership amidst increasing political pressure.

Israel Katz tried to remove the commander of the Central Command on air without authority, harming state security and turning the IDF into an arena of political pressure. The Chief of Staff halted the move in a display of backbone.

Defense Minister Israel Katz announced the appointment of Major General Dado Bar Kalifa as the new Central Command Chief. This decision follows public disagreements with current commander Avi Bluth regarding administrative detention orders.
