Taliyaha Ciidanka, Jeneraal-ka-Weyne Aviv Kochavi, oo ka hadlay furitaanka qiimaynta xaaladda ee Xarunta Guud aroornimadii maanta ayaa yiri: “Maanta waxaan xusnaa 1,000 maalmood tan iyo markii uu qarxay dagaalkii ugu dheeraa ee taariikhdeena.

A war that began with a failure and the terrible disaster in the history of the State of Israel. From the disaster, we rose, recovered, and led a campaign that brought unprecedented achievements in the history of the state. Yesterday I participated in the state ceremony marking 20 years since the Second Lebanon War. These dates are symbolic time markers, but they are very significant for memory, learning, and drawing lessons. Iran continues to be the central focus for readiness. We are in an interim period in all combat arenas. All arenas are still active at varying levels of intensity, and in each arena, shaping processes are taking place. The arenas are connected to each other, and any action in one may affect the other. In every sector, we must continue to be alert and prepared for rapid escalation and immediate return to combat for the sake of deepening our achievements and for victory. Alongside alertness and continued thwarting of threats, it is our duty to utilize the upcoming period to reduce attrition, care for personnel, and improve operational readiness. The achievements of the multi-arena campaign came thanks to the determination and sacrifice of the country’s defenders. The “Wall Keepers” who are motivated by a sense of national mission are first and foremost the combat soldiers on the front lines and behind them all the supporting systems of the IDF. The soldiers and commanders, both conscripts, career personnel, and reservists, are the most important resource of the State of Israel. It is fitting and proper that they be the first priority to receive the state’s appreciation in decisions and resources, with concern for them, their families, and their future.
