IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir toured the Nevatim Airbase earlier today with the chief of the Israeli Air Force, Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar.

Zamir was briefed on the IAF’s activities during the war, as well as the lessons drawn from its investigations into the October 7 onslaught, the military says.

“We have an excellent Air Force, based on excellent soldiers and commanders, and on an outstanding Air Force commander who led the IAF to tremendous achievements,” Zamir says in the statement.
