United States CENTCOM chief Gen. Michael Kurilla held an assessment with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi yesterday, the Israeli military says.
“The general’s visit dealt with the security issues at hand, with an emphasis on Iran and the northern front,” the IDF says.
The visit came amid preparations in the IDF for a response to Iran’s ballistic missile attack last week.
