United States CENTCOM chief Gen. Michael Kurilla, who arrived in Israel on Friday, held an assessment with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi over the weekend, the Israeli military says.

The IDF says the assessment focused on “security-strategic issues with an emphasis on Lebanon.”

The head of the Operations Directorate, Maj. Gen. Oded Basiuk, and Northern Command chief, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin attended the assessment.

“The IDF will continue to deepen its relationship with the US Armed Forces, due to our commitment to strengthening regional stability and the coordination between the militaries,” the IDF adds.
