Kats Removes Senior Occupation Commander
Israeli Minister of Security Yisrael Katz dismissed IDF Central Command Chief, Aviv Kochavi, during a live interview. The decision was described as based on political considerations and highlights Katz's ambition to establish absolute control over the Israeli military establishment. Katz affirmed that his control over the army is "absolute" and announced the appointment of Dado Bar as Kochavi’s successor, despite the Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir being unaware of the dismissal. This move sparked criticism, with concerns over the minister's efforts to enforce his authority over the military and influence security and military policies.
