Defense Minister Israel Katz’s spokesman issues a veiled threat at IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari over the military’s response to the minister’s order to cooperate with the state comptroller’s investigation into Hamas’s October 7, 2023, onslaught.
“The IDF spokesman, who apologized not long ago for exceeding his authority, and attacking the political echelon, again exceeds his authority, attacks and preaches morality to the political echelon,” Adir Dahan says.
“An apology this time will not be enough,” Katz’s spokesman adds.
