Israeli army chief says forces ready to resume combat if needed
Israeli army chief Eyal Zamir said on Thursday that the army's forces are positioned in strategic locations that allow them to return to combat at any moment, if called upon to do so, Al Jazeera Arabic reported.
Earlier, Zamir said that the army had “failed in its mission to protect the country and its citizens” on 7 October 2023.
Zamir made the comments in a letter to the country's armed forces on the Hebrew anniversary of the Hamas-led attack.
“The correction will come from within, from us. We don’t have the power to change what was, but we do have the power to grow, as individuals and an army, to take responsibility and to learn from the past in order to fortify our security for generations,” Zamir said.
