Israel's military preparedness post-Chariots of Fire
The Israel Defense Forces changes its top leader every four years. The current chief, Lieutenant General Aviv Kochavi, is due to retire at the turn of the year, and is already preparing his end-of-tour’ report by testing his forces through a month-long exercise, (namely) Chariots of Fire, held not only in Israel but also above the Mediterranean, in the Red Sea and in a complex Special Forces simulation in Cyprus. Meanwhile, Israel’s military, security and police forces kept their counter-terror pressure on hotbeds of hostile activity in the West Bank and elsewhere. So while lessons learned in “Chariots of Fire” are being collected and digested, what is the net balance of Israel’s security in late-spring or early-summer of 2022?
