Ex-IDF general identified in IAI corruption probe

Amal Asad has been named as the former IDF general arrested in connection with a corruption investigation of the state-owned Israeli Aerospace Industries.

Asad joined IAI in 2012. He served in the IDF for 26 years, first in combat units and later as the head of the Coordination and Liaison unit of the Defense Ministry’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories.

Asad was one of the few Druze Israelis to reach a general’s rank in the IDF.
