The Israeli military says that IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi held an assessment in northern Israel over the weekend.
The terse statement says that Halevi visited an intelligence base in northern Israel with the head of the Northern Command, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin on Friday, and was briefed on “the intelligence situation in the northern arena.”
Halevi and Gordin also met at the Northern Command headquarters in Safed to discuss the IDF’s readiness, the military adds.
The meetings come as Israel anticipates a major Hezbollah attack on the country in response to the killing of the terror group’s military chief in Beirut.
