IDF Chief of the General Staff Eyal Zamir visited the commander training exercises in northern Israel

IDF Chief of Staff LTG Eyal Zamir stated during the visit to northern training exercises on Tuesday: “Iran’s attempt to dictate new rules will fail. The strike we carried out in Iran was preparation for a much more significant and powerful blow. We are prepared to deliver another severe strike.”

Zamir emphasized that the IDF remains on high alert and will continue deepening damage to Hezbollah while defending northern communities. “We will act with determination wherever we identify a threat to Israeli civilians,” he said.

IDF forces are currently operating in southern Lebanon, dismantling terrorist infrastructure including a major underground facility in the Beaufort area. The exercises focus on preparing the next generation of battalion and company commanders, the IDF said.
