The number two spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Lt. Col. Daniel Hagari, and numerous senior officials in the IDF information system have announced their resignations, Israeli broadcaster Channel 14 reports.
Channel 14 sources say the resignation was due to “professional and personal” issues. The broadcaster, in turn, describes such a large-scale withdrawal from the army in the midst of an ongoing war as “unusual.” In addition to Hagari, the resignation would also affect fellow Lt. Col. Richard Hecht, IDF spokesman for foreign media. Channel 14 then names, among others, the officers Merav Granot and Tzupia Moshkovich.
