“The IDF and the government are making a significant effort to reward the reservists. We are committed to you—that is the contract."
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi delivered a message on Tuesday to the hundreds of thousands of reserve soldiers who have fought in the multi-front war since the Hamas-led invasion on Oct. 7, 2023.
“The IDF and the government are making a significant effort to reward the reservists. We are committed to you—that is the contract,” Halevi said during a situational assessment held in Netzarim Corridor that bisects the Gaza Strip between north and south.
The military leader also lit the Chanukah candles. He was joined by OC Southern Command Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman; Brig. Gen. Yoav Brunner, commander of the 99th Reserve Infantry Division; Col. Ido Kass, commander of the 551st Reserve Paratroopers Brigade; and reserve soldiers operating in the area.
