The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has publicly addressed rumors of a dispute between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir concerning a potential operation against Iran. The IDF's press service stated that military decisions are based solely on security considerations, not political ones, and that troops are currently on high alert.
The IDF's statement was prompted by reports suggesting disagreements between Netanyahu and Zamir regarding a possible strike on Iran. The press service emphasized that decisions are driven by professional assessments from specialists and are devoid of political calculations. They also confirmed that forces are maintaining a heightened state of readiness across all fronts, dismissing any other interpretations as misleading and irrelevant.
These rumors reportedly originated from a CNN report alleging that Netanyahu pressured the U.S. administration to launch a joint operation against Iran before Israeli elections. The report cited an Israeli source claiming that Zamir had informed U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Kaine that such an operation could disrupt the elections and potentially lead to their postponement. The CNN report also suggested that then-President Trump did not give the operation the green light.
Both Prime Minister Netanyahu and Minister of Defense Israel Katz have denied these reports. Katz refuted claims that an operation against Iran was planned before the elections. Netanyahu, in an interview with Gabriel Wolfson for Newsru.co.il, described the allegations of tension between him and Zamir as "fabrications" and "election manipulations."
