Yesha Council Supports Central Command Chief Avi Blot Amid Replacement Plans
The Yesha Council issued a statement on Monday backing Central Command Chief Major General Avi Blot following Defense Minister Israel Katz's announcement of plans to replace him. The council praised Blot's dedication to Israel's security and highlighted his offensive military leadership in the West Bank, which they credited with significant successes in the fight against terrorism. They also emphasized his respectful and close cooperation with the settler communities in Judea and Samaria. The council expressed support for Defense Minister Katz's efforts to strengthen Israel's security, defeat terrorism, and develop settlements in Judea, Samaria, and the Jordan Valley. Local council leaders are scheduled to meet with the defense minister later Monday afternoon to discuss these issues further.
